    Mirage Band

    Does anyone know if the Sako mirage band can be used with the Sako backup iron sights? Most of my use for iron sights would be close in. But, if I have a front iron sight mounted with a scope - is it possible to somehow attach the mirage strap (assuming I have a hook in the rear at my scope...

    Rifle Scopes Mount for a TRG42

    Am trying to decide on a good scope mount setup for my TRG42 in 7mm Rem Mag. I want to get the most out of my cartridge. I have narrowed down my scope choices to the Schmidt & Bender 5-25x56m PMII and the Premier Reticles 5-25x56mm, both with 34mm tube. According to the specs the S&B has...

    Has anyone out there ordered any Jarvis barrels for HK pistols? I am especially interested in seeing pics of the ported and threaded barrels for the HK USP Expert .45 as well as report on how they shoot.

    To Rebarrel or Not - That is the Question

    I have an M-1A with a NM non-heavy barrel. It has less than 1500 rounds down it. My intent is to use it primarily for service rifle competition and some occasional hunting. First part of question is can I rebarrel it with a heavy barrel and have it still be considered a legitimate service...

    Rifle Scopes Sunshade vs. ARD

    I have been looking at accessories for scopes. I have seen something that I was curious to get some opinions on. Sunshades seem to be a simple extension of the telescopic tube without optics that seems to "shade" (duh) the front lens -perhaps avoiding some sun-star and glare entering the...

    Emergency Iron Sites

    This is sort of a polling question for all the old timers out there, combat vets, hunters, etc. How often have ever every had to employ backup or iron sights for a scoped rifle? Sure they nice to have, and you surely need them when you need them - but unless you are in a life/death...

    Hello Sniper's Hide, I am a career US Army officer with an early background in shooting when I was an Infantry Officer from 1981-1991. I did a little competitive shooting at Fort Campbell and have some knowledge of marksmanship, a smattering of reloading, mostly from watching my former...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Wilson Combat 10mm vs. Wilson Combat 10mm Hunter

    Probably a long shot - but anyone have both of these and can give a comparison between the two? I am curious whether or not the porting on the 10mm Hunter makes a significant difference or not.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns HK 45 Tactical

    Anyone have one of these and been able to locate some adjustable night sights high enough to clear a suppressor? I know the gun has only been out a short while and I am sure somebody will be making some specialized sights for this excellent pistol - but I hate to have to wait and for a purpose...

    Best Muzzle Break for Sako TRG

    Seen a lot of different muzzle breaks - anyone have experience with more than one on their TRG? I have heard Near Manufacturing makes a good one and Rich Reiley in Colorado any others. Might be nice to do a survey of what is available versus performance.
