    Stuck on stock vs chassis for build

    I am trying to build up my rem700 308 for long range target/hunting. Well long range-ish. With a 20" barrel I doubt that I will be able to reach out past 1000 to touch something. But, anyway... I am working with somewhat of a budget, and even then, it will take time to get all the pieces...

    Rifle Scopes Leupold problem

    I had a leupold mk4 lr/t with m1 turrets. I had it on a rem-700 and never had any issues, (didn't use it much either). But, I traded it to a friend who put it on a scar-17, and all of the sudden, it can't hit jack. The rifle is accurate, sub moa he claims. He hasn't had any issues with the rifle...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns glock or smith?

    SO... this is probably going to come off as blasphemy to some, i know i never expected to be in this place, but... i am trading my 1911 away. It's the springfield a1-loaded. But, I hardly ever use it, and with starting school/new family stuff, it wouldn't hurt to get something cheaper to shoot...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns CZ 75B holsters

    I'm looking for a decent CCW holster for my CZ 75B. I've looked, but the options i'm finding are expensive or don't match my criteria. I would prefer leather to kydex, however, i am openminded here. I need IWB for year round use, and i need a forward cant. I had a vertical IWB holster but it...

    lever action twist rate

    Why are the twist rates so slow for lever action rifles? I was parusing the interwebs looking at various rifles and goodies, and I (as frequently before) started looking at lever actions. I was looking specifically at a marlin 45/70 with a 22" barrel, but the twist rate is 1:20. this provides a...

    Gunsmithing RIDICULOUS QUESTION!!!

    I know this is ridiculous, and that it's "possible" but, what isn't... but here is my question. Would it be REASONABLY possible, to set a Rem 700 Action in a M1A stock, specifically the SOCOM-II. I realize that this would require a lot of drilling and cutting, and that technically, it CAN be...

    Rifle Scopes AR optics

    I am looking for an optic for my AR-15. I have an eotech, i've had the aimpoint, and, while they are excellent optics, they both illuminate red, and have no magnification and are strictly close quarters optics. (Red is a problem because i am color blind and red is incredibly difficult for me...

    DBM options...

    I know i've asked about DBMs before and i have seen a lot of other people ask about them... it's a fairly frustrating topic for a lot of people. but, here is another question. Does anyone know of a DBM system that accepts AR10 magazines? Would there be perfromance issues with AR10 mags? they...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Defensive ammo

    Why is so much of the defensive carry ammo out there steel cased? One of the pistols i carry concealed is a Kahr cw40. Kahr recommends not using steel cased ammo. Why, and why does it tend to be steel casing for defense ammo?

    Budget friendly upgrades?

    I have a Remington 700 LT Tactical rifle. It has a 20" 1:10" twist fluted heavy barrel and what i believe is just a standard SPS stock (it's the same stock you'll see on the 700 VTR) I would love to replace the stock with any number of amazing stocks out there, however, with my wedding coming...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Dilema

    I typically carry my Springfield 1911 a-1 Loaded as my concealed carry piece. During the summer months, I've found that, while not impossible, it is somewhat more difficult to conceal than i would like. So i did some research and took a very strong liking to the Kahr family. I found a used, not...

    Advice/thoughts on chest rig please....

    Gunsmithing New barrels?

    Where might one locate a replacement barrel for a revolver. Specifically a long barrel for an early 1900s smith and wesson model 10 m/p. I have looked all over and have found nothing more than parts kits with short barrels. Help!!! Thanks.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns New barrel?

    I recently inherited an old smith and Wesson model 10. It's not in good condition at all. The nickel finish is all worn off, there is some pitting in the barrel and there was oil or grease baked into gunk in the moving parts of the cylender. That being said. This firearm has no real monitary...

    Gunsmithing K-98 Project (First project)

    I have it in mind to "build" a project gun. I want to keep it relatively inexpensive, without sacrificing too much quality. This project is mostly for fun. If it works, i would use the rifle for hunting and targets. It would not be my primary long range rifle. but, yeah, here's my idea. I have...

    K98 rebuild

I bought it when i was 15 and it wasn't in the best shape when i got it and i took ok-ish care of it. it still shoots great, but little pieces are missing and wooden parts are being held togther with screws...

    Tactical Bolts

    I am looking for a tactical bolt or bolt handle for my Rem 700. With my factory bolt, i keep hitting my scope while i cycle the bolt. I don't like that. I feel like a tactical bolt handle would help. Do i need to get my bold machined/threaded to accept a tactical handle, or can i buy one...
