To catch people up on the news, Geissele was awarded the contract for the sniper variant. They are currently still competing for the Assaulter variant but it has yet to be awarded. In the video, the mil requirement was 1 MOA. They test every rifle that ships and the first 50 tested an overall...

I have been shooting rifle more since 2020. I have specifically been shooting small frame ARs and have five rifles that I cycled through. A friend told me that I might have fun at some matches so I shot a couple that were listed on quantified performance. What I found out is that I really like...

I am currently building a 16" small frame AR in 5.56 with a focus on making it as accurate as possible. Will any high quality BCG work for me or are them some that just work better. The highly accurate part of this build is what is new to me.

This is an interesting look at Bolt Carrier Groups and why and how they work. Changing the mass of the BCG according to the creator can have negative and unintended consequences. Anyway, if you have time I recommend watching the video.

Do they help with mirage and do they hold up? I saw past threads about Burn Proof Gear and Liberty Defense. When the can gets hot and you are shooting at range with higher magnification, the mirage kind of sucks. Is a cover the best option or is there another way to deal with it?

I have almost universally run Eotech holographic sites, sometimes with magnifiers. I am pretty good to go with this unit to 300 yards but the limitations of the system become pretty apparent as you extend in range. I have been looking at and messing with various LPVO optics. The ones that I have...

As many of you know Geissele won a SOCOM contract and has been making deliveries of a small framed AR chambered in 6mm ARC. These comments are from my son who works with Naval Land Warfare. The teams really like the rifle. Geissele won a pretty grueling competition and apparently they were very...

DISCLAIMER I stumbled across this youtube channel a while ago and I started watching it. The guy raises money with his Patreon, he buys an upper with his proceeds and then mates it to a full auto lower. He dresses up in a lot of body armor and starts mag dumping until there is a failure. His...

One of the great things about this forum is that a lot of times, the members have already figured out the answer to a question so I am hoping that is the case here. I have a small ranch outside of Houston. It is only 200 acres but the farmer/rancher that leases land from us estimates that he...

KS-1 Rifle system

Mac at the Military Arms Channel reviews the PSA M110 For those of you who do not want to watch the video, Palmetto State Armory is selling an M110 clonish rifle in either .308 or 6.5 CM. He reviews the 6.5 CM. He tried multiples of ammo and all of them shot sub moa. The best group was .23 moa...

Boom

Like many of you, I have owned a wide array of firearms and ancillary products over the years. Also like many of you, I have had stuff break or go wrong which led me to explore the quality of customer service. I know that I started the thread title negative but the best customer service I have...

I went to a 3 gun competition with two friends and enjoyed the day at the range. While I spent most of my time on the pistol course, I got to look at and try some of the equipment being used. The thing that stuck out to me was some of the AR and how they shot. I shot two ARs, and without...

I want to shoot a 16" AR out to 500 yards and was wondering if any of you have any experience with the Eotech holographic site plus the 5x magnifier. There are a couple of different models but I was thinking that with practice, the -3 version with three dots would be the best for longer shots...

I have a Noveske Gen 1 lower receiver and a VLTOR Noveske marked upper that I am going to build out. I want to do a 20" barrel and I have some questions as I have never built longer than 14.5". 1) Do I need to use a rifle length buffer or can I use a carbine length and adjust the weight and...

I shoot hogs on a fairly regular basis and I have been doing it with various 5.56 ARs. I hit them, no problem. My issue is that sometimes I hit them right behind the shoulder and they will still run 100 yards. My hunting friends that are using larger caliber rifles are having much better luck...

I know that given the nature of this forum that a lot of the post focus on accuracy and long range shooting of platforms. There will be a little of this in this post but there were other things to me that I wanted to share. I have no idea if it was Sig's intent but in a way, the Spear LT is the...

Guy talks about gun firing while holstered

I am linking this to give context. This is the third break in of my home in five years. I have been keeping most of my firearms locked up in a safe and I keep a Glock 34 in my night stand. The HPD officer who responded said that once they enter your home, once they start shooting that I should...
