Re: Anyone in IL who actually SHOOTS in IL??? I have a few farmer friends which allow me to shoot in some wide open space when the crops are not in. when no crops are in, I can get 1200 yards. When they are, I can only shoot 425 yrds. There is also another really nice gun club just outside...

Re: New M&P9 CC "shield" I've got 100 rounds through mine. I traded off my glock 27 for it and don't regret it for a second. I bought my 27 because I could use my duty mags in it if I needed to. The problem was that I didn't carry it on duty because of how thick it was. It either rubbed on my...

Re: PWS MK114 Id like to chew your ass for making me want to spend money Dmack but looking at it this way you may be saving me a few dollars too. The only downside for me is the nearest dealer is about 2 1/2 hours from me so I can't really see how it feels or fire a few rounds through it...

Re: PWS MK114 Interested in getting one to use for a patrol rifle. Bouncing between PWS, LWRC, and POF. Any updates on throat erosion?

Re: POF-USA? Thats a sexy SOB.

Re: Nightforce turrets tracking backwards. Thanks for all the post fellas. He is using the armalite mounts he got with the rifle. I dont know how the quality of the rings are as I've never used them. Given the huge parallax adjustment knob I doubt you could even mount it at a 90 degree...

A coworker of mine was having issues blowing the reticle out of cheap scopes with his armalite .50. I advised him he needed a better scope with an etched reticle. After talking him out of overpaying for a leopold mark 4, he purchased a night force nxs 8-32x56. He returned from the range and...

Re: Coyote hunters Help wanted. They probably won't leave but they do become educated which will force you to change tactics. We switch from rabbit distress to wood pecker distress and more recently goose decoys. Just don't miss. Dead coyotes cant be educated. If two come in at the same...

Re: Airsoft? Airsofts are An effective training tool and are used at the Illinois police training institute in champaign. The only thing you do not get is the recoil.

Re: Off-duty officer accidentally fires shot at mall The reason he was not charged was because most crimes against people/public include knowingly, with the intent. It would fall under reckless discharge of a firearm which (at least in the state I live in) has to prove he intended to...

Re: Any good deals on 40S&W ammo? +1 for MBI I usually get Tula ammo or PMC bronze when I'm out of MBI. Ultramax and CCI blaser run good too. I'm running a Glock 22/27 and they eat everything. Your results may vary. I don't mind malfunctions. They are real word, SHTF training. Smack, rack, an...

Re: Failure To Cock.... You're right docEd missed the part where he said jewell trigger it later post.

Re: Murphy's law proves faithful yet again I ended up just swapping the entire assembly with my 308. Didn't feel like dealing with the whole mess right now. No dogs this morning. We'll be back after em this afternoon. Then on to some coons for opening night tomorrow which reminds me gotta...

Re: Murphy's law proves faithful yet again Your right tacticalj as they say.... Click, the loudest sound in the world. Anyone else seen this in their reduced lock time pins and springs? I'm betting it's a temper issue with the spring. I do a lot of dry fire but have never seen this before.

So I've been waiting to scratch my itch for a coyote hunt since summer and the time finally arrives. The stars align and all of the guys are finally together once again. I decided I had better give my coyote rifle one good look through the night before. When I remove the firing pin assembly, I...

Re: Failure To Cock.... like excaliber said start with sear engagment first. If it is not set properly it will allow the pin to drop when you slam the bolt hard enough or bounce the butt of the rifle. Adjust it a quarter turn at a time until you feel comfortable it is reliable. I always seal...

Re: Case length HELP Measurments are pretty conservative. If you trim them to the length specified in the book you should be golden like a retreiver. As long as they are not too long, cut square, and consistant you should be fine.

Re: Cock blocked by a fart! hahahah I wasnt done laughing yet then I made it to Shankster's comment. I think I just peed a little.

Re: 223 Powder +1 on varget, benchmark, 8208xbr, and H4895. I have had great results with all of them. I run all of them in .223, .22-250, and .308 (except varget my 308 hates it for what ever reason). They are all extreme powders and will not suffer due to temperature changes as much as...

Re: Advice on a good shooting mat. I have the midway mat and love it. The only downside to it is the black textured portions get really hot when left in the sun while you tack targets.
