    Movie Theater Warrior POV

    Anyone seen "Warrior POV" on the Military channel? Some interesting stories by supposedly real people intermixed with dramatizations and stock footage, but o.m.g.! EVERY actor in their re-creations has their fricking FINGER ON THE TRIGGER the entire time! I just can't watch it because of...

    Palmetto State Armory lower build kits in stock

    Re: Palmetto State Armory lower build kits in stock I ordered stuff from them about 4 weeks ago. Got it in 2 weeks. Also ordered some stuff about 2 weeks ago, but haven't seen it yet. They've never been super fast, but they do have good stuff. You'd think since everything is sold out, they'd...

    Plum Crazy Lowers?

    Re: Plum Crazy Lowers? One instructor i know uses them quite a bit for student guns. They're certainly lightweight and one unique feature is the ability to put the safety on in any hammer condition. The only thing I've found is that the front takedown pin can go past the detent (and...

    new build starting this week comming 223 or 300?

    Re: new build starting this week comming 223 or 300? Is there a good thread on 300 blackout? Searching kinda gets bits and pieces. If not, let's make one. It looks like a promising round that's very easy to get into - just a barrel! In the same place as the OP... have a couple lowers...

    How often do you clean your rifle?

    Re: How often do you clean your rifle? Precision rifles - every time unless its just confirming zero or something. AR's - boresnake, oil until maybe 1000+ unless it starting to look bad. Pistol - 500+ unless its nasty. Can easily run glocks past 1000 with some lube, but I feel bad about my...

    Mapul 20 round mag reliability?

    Re: Mapul 20 round mag reliability? I use 10/20's for the range cause they're shorter than steel 30's but you can still grab them unlike a 10. The 10th round is tight on a closed bolt, but they are reliable. Gawd I hate California.

    AR vs Shottie for Home Defense

    Re: AR vs Shottie for Home Defense I keep both and ideally the selection would depend on the threat(s). A pistol and light are always going to come first. Fight your way to your long guns, they say. If it's really that long of an engagement INSIDE my house, then shit I will bring both, my...

    Lwrc repr or larue obr

    Re: Lwrc repr or larue obr The "REPR problems" were solved over a year ago. It's just recycled internet rhetoric at this point. I have a 20" REPR but put LaRue's optic, sling mount, and their mod'd Harris on it. Does that count? I want to get something in 16" this year. REPR is awesome...

    Movie Theater New Show - Military Channel: "Triggers"

    Re: New Show - Military Channel: "Triggers" Some episodes are mildly interesting, but no more than once. All of the explosions are either fake or cleverly edited stock footage. On the RPG episode you can clearly see fire originating from underneath objects or from inside the little hut up on...

    Movie Theater Sons of Guns - New Discovery Show

    Re: Sons of Guns - New Discovery Show Oh boy... next week they're making "an all-American gun more reliable than an AK" for "the boys at the nuclear site". LOL!!! Looks like one of the cloned shop-boys has some difficulty tacking on a bunch of tacticool crap to an off the shelf piston AR...

    Cali Legal R-700 XCR 308?

    Re: Cali Legal R-700 XCR 308? The only whacky CA law directly applied to a centerfire bolt rifle is the 10-round magazine limit. You cannot posses a silencer. Concerning "subsonic" rifles (there is no PC definition what this is, therefore it doesn't exist)... It is clearly not a device or...

    Federal ammo too much for semi-auto ??

    Re: Federal ammo too much for semi-auto ?? Interesting info, thanks! I've shot a few from a 20" 700 with no problems. Curious if a piston (20" LWRC REPR) would handle it differently than gas impg, with also the ability to bleed off more/less gas with the adjuster. Perhaps will stick to...

    223 twist rate

    Re: 223 twist rate How does barrel length affect stabilization? For instance my 16" 1:9 carbine would presumably max out around 62gr (tho some say 68/69 depending). Would a 20" bolt gun for example make a difference in this threshold?

    wolf,silverbear,brownbear

    Re: wolf,silverbear,brownbear There's absolutely nothing wrong with Wolf or other animals for a weekend of pistol or carbine training. You gotta clean the thing anyways. Shoot whatever you can find and afford! I do try to keep it out of the precision rifles, but hey if you're stuck on a...

    Synthetic Motor Oil to lube their AR 15?

    Re: Synthetic Motor Oil to lube their AR 15? Lube it every 500 rounds and clean it every 5000. You won't see any wear. I guarantee it! Don't forget the magnetic drain plug. It's got special rare earth frequencies! Truth be told, I have yet to find a 'favorite' lube. It all works just don't...
