    Great Customer Service From Geissele

    Recently bought my second SSA/E trigger for my Colt 6940 because I really liked the Large-Pin one in my LW Sporter. I was dismayed when it was totally different, no takeup and no second stage, just a VERY light first stage. I was VERY hesitant about sending it back for repair and lose use of...

    Rifle Scopes Switched from Aimpoint to EOtech thanks to US Optics!

    Another thing I've noticed, is that guys with old eyes, like mine, have a hard time with Red Dots. The well defined dot actually looks like a Lightning Bolt. My solution has been to use the rear BUIS that co-witnesses with the optic, I don't raise the front BUIS unless shooting for distance...

    Rifle Scopes Switched from Aimpoint to EOtech thanks to US Optics!

    A few years ago at the Big Sandy shoot, I was assisting their Blaster by taping Glow Sticks to TNT. The topic of Red Dots came up, and he shared some wisdom I'd never heard before. An Operator using a Red Dot does not need to open the front cover (just the rear) to put rounds on target, as...

    Rifle Scopes Apparent Weakness Of Aimpoint PRO ???

    After thinking about the situation, last night I decided to rotate my other PRO and Comp M2 90 degrees, putting the battery and switch on the left side. The turrets are actually marked properly for either position I just noticed. I felt that as a right hand shooter, I was less likely to damage...

    Rifle Scopes Apparent Weakness Of Aimpoint PRO ???

    No problem what-so-ever getting it repaired under warranty, it's in the mail. Just somewhat concerned, as the 1st reply here stated the PRO may not be as robust as the rest of their fine product line. The knob broke off in the "OFF" position, rendering the unit useless. I have no reason to...

    Rifle Scopes Apparent Weakness Of Aimpoint PRO ???

    Recently purchased my 3rd Aimpoint and mounted it on a Colt 6920 that has mostly been a Safe Queen with less than 50 rds through it during a single outing to zero. Was putting it back in the safe last night, when it grazed the open door, heard something drop on the floor, and saw the Selector...

    If anyone is looking for a Aimpoint Pro....

    At the last Big Sandy I was helping the guy that was their explosives expert tape glow sticks to TNT for the night shoot. The subject of Red Dot optics came up. He said that he was taught that you don't really need to open the front lens cover to get on target, just the rear. The natural...

    Beamshot / Quattron Experiences ???

    On a more personal note; I haven't posted on this site in a while, I previously had over 200 posts here as a contributor. I noticed today, that my post record has apparently been erased. I don't usually sign-in to view this site unless I comment. Is this standard policy here ???

    Beamshot / Quattron Experiences ???

    Recently contacted the above for Mounts and Tailcaps for Lasers we purchased years ago. Their products seem to have decent ratings for their price range. Our budget is small, but we are looking to add a few Green Lasers in the near future. I dealt with a nice guy there in charge of US...

    Colt SP 6940 Upper x LW Sporter "Large Pin" Lower Compatibility ???

    Looking to replace the factory upper with the SP 6940 on my Large Pin Colt lower with a SSA/E Gissy trigger (Large Pin) installed. Are there any compatibility issues. I tried to call Colt CS today but my battery went dead after holding 15 minutes on speaker. Are there any issues other than...

    What was the '94 ban like?

    Re: What was the '94 ban like? As an Old Guy, I wasn't a fan of computers then. I don't know if there were forums like this out there or not back then. The "Gnashing Of Teeth" becomes opressive when you visit more than a few Firearms Forums on a daily basis. I'm trying to break myself of...

    Hostess is closing. RIP Twinkies...

    Re: Hostess is closing. RIP Twinkies... 18,500 people will be getting a 99 week (likely more soon) All-Expenses paid vacation. Would like to see a map of were ALL the Hostess facilities are located. Twinkies seem to last forever, maybe the ChiComs will buy the Rights and ship them back over.

    Rifle Scopes Are You Happy With Your USO Spotting Scope ???

    Got mine about 2 yrs ago in a trade with a USO dealer. Got it because it had the Mil GAP reticle to compliment my USO SN3 (and the dealer REALLY wanted my trade item). I realize that it is a Field Scope and all. I'm not complaining about the Chromatic Abberation (purple outlines etc...), it...

    "Smart Meter" EMF Danger- Is It Real???

    My employer E-mailed me a link to a site that was discussing the high levels of low-freq radiation these things give off several times a minute. It seems that these things communicate to a even more powerful unit on one lucky person's meter that sends this data to a central point. One source...

    Drug cartel tanks! What's next?

    Re: Drug cartel tanks! What's next? Don't know how to link things. To see a lot of the gory $hit in Mexifornia, Google "borderlandbeat". Seems stepping over decapitated heads and dismembered bodies happens daily judging by the numbers. Makes me wonder why the US will go 1/2 way around the...
