    Night Vision Helmets! Helmets everywhere! Which is best for NODs?

    It sure does. My Wilcox mount locks up tight. That said, I rarely leave well enough alone. I wanted a metal-to-metal interface, and I wanted to have a good lanyard solution. I bought a Wilcox L4 WMS shroud, liking the idea of being able to move the lanyard position around. This is my first...

    Looking at new hunting scope

    Well, I just went through this in the past few weeks. For the rifle, I went with a Fierce Carbon Fury in 6.5CM. I'm a fan of Sako actions, I like very accurate rifles (for more than a round or two), still wanted something light weight, and I stumbled upon a lightly used one in a Cabela's Gun...

    trg thread pattern

    I've had no problem finding muzzle devices and suppressors in the SAKO thread. Why screw with it (pun intended)?

    All-laser LASIK: Best money I ever spent...and that includes everything-sex, booze, fast cars, guns....crazy talk, I know. But it is that good.

    Cutting foam in a pelican case

    Same here. Works best if you can have someone hold the foam vertically while you cut it. Electric carving knives are something like $9.99 at Walmart.

    Help me with my first rimfire

    I'd start with a 455VPT and see how you like shooting rimfire. If you really get into it you can decide to lay down the big bucks for a custom. One of my CZs: Yo-Dave kit, Zeiss scope, TPS rings, DI Products rail, Sinclair bi-pod. Trigger is 2.0lbs. At 50 yds, 1/2" groups are the...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Knife Sharpener

    This ^, fellow New Englander! And when it comes to knife sharpening, I'm wicked lazy! I like sharp knives, but just don't have the inclination and time to perfect doing it old-school. The Wicked Edge makes it really easy. You just need to keep track of what edge angle you use on each knife...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Why you DON'T like Sig.

    I'm a huge SIG fan-boy, but all is not roses. I agree that the slide lock is in bad spot for most people, me included. However, since I don't really care for DA/SA and mostly buy SAO versions, the slide lock problem is solved. When your thumb is riding the safety (1911-style), it can't...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Heckler & koch vp9 handgun detailed photo tour

    Nice picture work. I'm really looking forward to checking on of these out. I liked the SIG P320 except for the trigger. I hope the HK really is more like the PPQ.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Concealed Carry: What is your setup?

    Wilson Combat Sentinel Compact w/alloy frame in a Milt Sparks VMII with 1 spare mag. Hornady CD 185 FTX When this is not practical, a SIG P238 in a front pocket holster with a spare mag. Cor-Bon DPX Same manual of arms either way.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Bulk amo

    I used to really like ammoman a lot but their prices have gotten stup...err...uncompetitive (even with the free shipping). Lately SGAmmo.com has been doing me right.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Why you DON'T like Glock.

    Functional excellence aside, I simply don't like the grip angle and the aesthetics. The ergonomics can be easily overcome with training, but I shoot lots of other handguns which I will not stop doing. So one group or the other will be "off." While I own a Glock, I don't intend to replace...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns I made the wrong choice with FN

    Wow. Really glad for this thread. I have a bunch of FN products (including an FNX45), with consistently good performance. However, as another poster said, I haven't run the FNX45 hard yet. Something for me to look for for sure. And I've been strongly considering an FNX45T to run with my...

    Has anyone got their Remington 700 back?

    This. I didn't like the trigger anyway and junked it for a Timney.

    Will Sako TRG 22 in 308 factory take off work with a 338 Lapua?

    Take-off what? Muzzle Brake? Yes, they are exactly the same.
