    Savage 11VT Bolt handle

    Cordless impact. Rocked it forward and reverse a couple times and broke loose with ease. Be sure to put it in and torque it by had. Cordless impact will over tighten and strip your Allen head

    Is Texas the place to be or not????

    Im in El Paso, I was forced here due to the Army, but I'm from Ohio. The only real complaints I have about El Paso is no greenery, its a boarder town so you better know Spanish, and getting used to walking into Walmart and hearing the announcements in Spanish or doing your Christmas shopping at...

    Rifle Scopes NF nxs 3-15 vs SWFA SS 3-15?

    I am fairly new to all of this too. I came here and asked these people for advice and I got tons of it. What I learned is that you want to buy what your budget can realistically afford but give you some room to grow into it as well. As you get better you will want to shoot farther. As you shoot...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns 1911 Shopping

    I have a Para Elite, and for the money you can not buy a better 1911 in my opinion. I bought it a couple months before the deployment I am on and have ran about 500 rounds through it and it hasn't even slowed down yet and zero malfunctions and It gave it the first cleaning before I put it in...

    Raisin' us up a good ol' crop o' young-uns

    What happened to the days where your parents would let that cop smack the crap out of you then when you got back in the house your parents did the same. Absolutely no respect for authority anymore. Since when are the adults the kids "friend" and not a "parent".

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Best 1911 on the market...?

    Para makes a really nice 1911 that runs from around 700-1500 depending on what you want. I was able to pick up one of their tactical 1911's really cheap (850 vs 1150).

    Option for 308 load development

    I know it's not bad for just stating, but I'm s but if a perfectionist when it comes to shooting. It's mainly going to be a precision set up but also used for hunting from time to time since the El Paso area isn't really the greatest for hunting. Maybe one day once I PCS to s duty station with...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns NRA Conceled Carry Qualifications for Civvies/ Do they really check the Quality?

    I've taken my CCW courses in two states, Ohio and now Texas. Both states have their course very much focused on the laws of legal carry and legal self defense. I was very lucky to have an instructor in Texas who was extremely competent and was willing to give everyone in her class a discount for...

    Option for 308 load development

    Actually I found a in El Paso That sold the actual preloaded Nosler and Hornady rounds and bought a couple boxes of each because I knew I was getting ready to deploy and didn't want to try to do a full custom load set up and have to leave right after I started and try to pick it all back up once...

    Option for 308 load development

    So far it really hasn't seemed to like anything I have put through it. I have tried 165gr Ballistic Tip from Nosler which grouped at .85" at 100. I have also tried 155gr Match from Hornady it didn't seem to like much, grouped at 1.15" at 100. Granted I'm new to this style of shooting so I don't...

    Yeah, Paula Deen is the Problem. Obviously.

    Our beloved nation has truly fallen away from what it used to be and should be. The actions by Lil Wayne are unexcuseable and should never be tolerated. People calling for Paula Deans head after a comment made 30 years ago need to get a life. Our nation has turned into a bunch of groveling babies.
