    Gun Safe Moisture Problem

    Re: Gun Safe Moisture Problem My safe is in my basement. The basement is finished, but apparently has more moisture that I thought. I want to put a dehumidifier down there, I think this will help considerably because I open my safe often.

    Gun Safe Moisture Problem

    I am having a moisture problem in my gun safe. In the safe, I have a golden rod on the floor and a large container of silica beads (the kind you bake the moisture out of)on the top self. It seems as if I just can not keep the moisture out. What can I do to help this problem?

    Rifle Scopes Acog On Ar-10

    Re: Acog On Ar-10 This will be going on my 16" Armalite Ar-10. This is my utility rifle. I have a trijicon rx-30 reflex on it now. I do everything with this rifle from carbine courses and steel plates to shooting coyotes and deer. I find it rather difficult to shoot over 200yds because of the...

    Range etiquette and barrel length

    Re: Range etiquette and barrel length A shooting range is always going to be loud... that is why they make hearing protection. I have a 16" barreled .308 with a rolling thunder break, yes it is loud and yes the percussion is harsh, but I prefer to feel the power of high power precision...

    Rifle Scopes Acog On Ar-10

    Re: Acog On Ar-10 Thanks for all the input, I appreciate different opinions. After all your input, I think an Acog would not be best for what I need. I am really considering the SWFA SS HD 1-4 x 24. At 1x I can maintain the "reflex" type sighting and at 4x I have just enough magnification for...

    Rifle Scopes Acog On Ar-10

    Re: Acog On Ar-10 In contrast... I noticed a lot of guys around here really like the SWFA SS 1-4x24. Also seen some guys taking off their acogs and replacing them with this scope. To me, that says something?

    Rifle Scopes Acog On Ar-10

    Re: Acog On Ar-10 the TA 11E has a chevron, I understand that the base of the chevron is 300 meters on a 19" target. Is there a "for sure" aiming point at 200 meters with a chevron? With that being said, I am also considering the TA 11J for the "for sure" aiming points on the reticule. Would...

    Rifle Scopes Looking to replace my leatherwood M1200 A.R.T

    Re: Looking to replace my leatherwood M1200 A.R.T I would like to be able to shoot steel plates at 1,000. As far as price range, I have a $1,000 approx. budget

    Rifle Scopes Looking to replace my leatherwood M1200 A.R.T

    I admit... I was taken by the "theory" of the scope. The quality of this scope sucks, the glass clarity is worse yet. I am looking for a scope to get my Ar-10 out to 1K. What should I look for in a better quality scope?

    Rifle Scopes Acog On Ar-10

    Re: Acog On Ar-10 I wear no such thing as a tin foil hat.... I was trying to see if I could get any comments...LOL I'm basically looking for simple magnification out to approx 500meters. I really do like the Trijicon reflex I have now, but the 6.5 MOA dot is too large at 300 meters

    Rifle Scopes Acog On Ar-10

    I am interested in putting a TA 11E Acog on my 16" Armalite AR-10. I currently have a Trijicon RX30 reflex on it now. With all the gossip of 2012 this is my go to rifle and I would like a little magnification. Does anyone have any experience with this optic? Will this setup be sufficient?

    anyone link me to comprehensive muzzle brake tests

    Re: anyone link me to comprehensive muzzle brake tests I run a Triangle Shooting Sports Rolling Thunder break on my 16" Armalite AR-10. I am pleased with it, I am much more able to control the rifle with this break. It is very loud though, its not called the rolling thunder for nothing!

    Subsonic .223 ammo

    Re: Subsonic .223 ammo Just a dumb question, but will they cycle in a SBR due to the shorter gas system?

    Subsonic .223 ammo

    I recently picked up a few boxes of .223 55gr subsonic FMJ. I am trying to shoot these through a 20" DI AR platform with a Gemtech G5 can. I can not get the rifle to cycle, have to charge every round. I shortened the buffer spring to the length of the buffer tube and installed an empty carbine...
