Hello all- I bought a Remington 700 rifle almost a year ago, and it has been my project gun now since. The rifle was originally krylon painted, and had a heavy barrel (measured 1.225"). I'm about to get the weapon cera-coated; and while stripping the krylon off I found "Wells Rifle Shop" and...

Can some of you please help me ID this stock? I bought a used rifle from a buddy here on my department's SWAT team, it was his first sniper rifle. He is known to not run anything cheap; but cannot remember what custom work the weapon has had done--he knows it has had some work done to it; but...

Hello All- I recently purchased a used weapon (Remington 700, .308) from a buddy of mine, and have hopes of using this weapon on my department's sniper section; having now swapped over from the entry side. I am totally new to this aspect of shooting & wanted to swap over to understand...

I'm currently waiting on my SBR form 1 to be approved on a Sig Sauer 556. After the paperwork clears, I'm planning on getting a suppressor for it. This will be my first go-round with this (they say I will catch the "fever" afterwards and want to suppress everything)...I've been doing some...

Anybody out there had any experience with hydro-dipping? I found a company (mydipkit) that looks pretty promising-can I get some pictures/stories from anybody? Thanks...

After having been issued one for years, I've always wanted my own MP5. I think I may have found an option that may make that dream a reality-getting a "flat" (I've found them as low as $99 from ORF) and having a company out of Texas-TPM outfitters-build me one up. I know that full auto will be...

I have a buddy at work who has put together a new M4; and is now looking into an optic for it. He wants a varible power optic and has a budget of around 600. He has recently found a "sightron" optic. I've never heard of this brand, but I know that this site has a wealth of knowledge. Anybody...

I normally load a 69 grain HPBT sierra matchking for my .223; but due to the recent rush on everything I've had trouble finding them-so I've found a possible substitute: Berger VLD 70 grain HPBT. Will this round be very much different than my old load, being that it is only 1 grain's worth of...

Anybody out there have any expeirence with Montana Gold bullets-pros and cons? I'm looking at getting a case of .40 155gr HP's...

My wife had a scary situation this past weekend while I was at drill-It's quite a helpless feeling talking your wife out to her car while you're out on a tank range miles and miles away. I got a good deal on a glock 23 years ago and gave it to her, but it's not really a good fit (she's a very...

I'm looking for a good pair of binoculars for my daddy's Christmas present; around the $200 price range. I found a company called "kruger" that I'm liking on SWFA; but was wondering if any of you out there had any input...Thanks and Merry Christmas!

Ok...I'm getting the 1911 fever...but I know SO little about them! Can I get a list of manufacturers of them-and possibly some reviews? I'm looking for one mainly just for shooting fun; 1000-1200 would be the most I would pay. I would like to be able to use it on patrol or home defense if...

I'm SERIOUSLY considering purchasing one of the new HK MP5 .22's...I want to get more into .22 shooting (it's getting too expensive to shoot anything else) any reviews out there from actual owners?

I'm in the market for a weapon mounted flashlight (I really don't care if it has a laser) for my glock 35. I need it to fit into a thigh holster; if you could suggest a holster to fit this combo-any advice would help! thanks in advance...

I know that this may be the wrong forum; but it's the only one I found that deals with ammo...I really like the M855 rounds; but here as of late I've had trouble finding them-in any quantity! Anybody out there know where I can put my hands on some (in bulk, preferably!) thanks...

Well...my local shop has both a SCAR and an ACR...I've played with the idea of purchasing one-but not so sure on which is better...Anyone out there have any thoughts or expeirences with either or both?...thanks in advance!

I just got my glock 35 (gen 4, if that makes a difference)...what's the best thigh rig holster for it? I'm thinking getting a light on it; but not sure-so opinions on both ways are needed. This rig will be put to some hard use-I just got put on the SWAT team here...thanks

Just got my new Glock 35, gen 4...now I'm in th market for night sights...I'm seeing two sizes offered-6.5 and 6.9mm; in the factory glock night sights (which I prefer-I have them on my duty weapon)...which one should fit my weapon?

I just mounted my Troy BUIS-(DOA tritium type) and I am having trouble with sighting them in--they're mounted on a sabre 20' M16A4 style rifle, 1:7 twist. I've pretty much decided the 62 grain M855 rounds work the best-but I'm having trouble with the zero; it seems to be all over the place...
