    Suppressors Tax Stamp photo on cell phone

    ROs don’t have a legal right to ask you to show them paperwork. I believe the federal regs say that you have to make them available when requested by an ATF agent. They are the one that enforce NFA devices. There is some difference of opinion as to whether that means on demand or you make an...

    Suppressors B&T SD-1122966 Rev 03 RBS QDM Suppressor Information

    The store I was at is a high end hunting store and the owner thought they were one of the best for gas guns. I had been at demonstrations where they ran the full auto and glowing hot. I just like the light weight and know there are probably similar models here. It sparked my interest because...

    Suppressors B&T SD-1122966 Rev 03 RBS QDM Suppressor Information

    I’m traveling in Germany and stopped in to my favorite German Hunting/Gun Store, Waffen Walter and looked at one of B&T’s newer suppressors model noted above and really liked it. Flow through design and very lightweight. The owner of the store thought they are one of the best newer suppressors...

    Training scars... let's hear 'em

    I am a fan of chamber flags and used to run NRA HP matches back when they were more popular than today. When you have a hundred shooters carrying gear around that age from 14 to 60+, flags are great because it helps everyone see that a rifle was safe. There's always the person who "forgets" to...

    Hunting & Fishing Gaim (Aimpoint) Shooting Simulator with VR Goggles

    Has anyone used the Gaim and Oculus VR shooting and hunting simulation setup? I see that they are now selling this in the US and it looks like Aimpoint spun it off. I'm tempted to purchase and try it out. My European hunting friends like it a lot and I've been watching what Gaim has been doing...

    Is it just me or are you finding

    My cousin buys 70s and 80s era JD row crop tractors and refurbishes them and resells and gets as much as they cost when they were new. Farmers are all over the mechanically injected tractors. Just look at the "right to repair" legislation and how all manufacturers are trying to keep the end...

    Is it just me or are you finding

    I used to hire construction program grads and would go to universities to interview. The schools always wanted us to meet the top students. I'd ask to see them and then ask to see students with average grades, work part-time, and have no student loans. The admins would look at me and ask...

    Hunting & Fishing Official Hog Hunting Thread

    This is the big boy (SC Definition) and was around 300 pounds that took three hits from the 300BO at 40 yards and I missed a head shot and heard the rounds smack his shield and he went down twice and still got up. Went down on the third shot and I didn't see him and thought he was done. Nope...

    Hunting & Fishing Official Hog Hunting Thread

    Here‘s few from the last couple of outings. We’ve done a good job thinning the sounders out over the last year and now the pickings are getting slim. Last picture is how a wild hog is supposed to end up in the cast iron pan! Shooting a Diamond Back 300BO, Reap IR 60MM, and Dead Air Nomad...

    Hunting & Fishing Official Hog Hunting Thread

    I love using the 300BO on hogs. Works great and still working on a subsonic load that kills effectively. Most of my shots are 50 to 100 yards and where I hunt, you‘re shooting in holes in SE timber so you usually get one shot maybe two before they disappear. I worked with 350 Legend for a bit...

    223 Barnes 78g TSX Load Question

    That would be me if you were the RO at CR-PC… Here’s the results out of a fast twist AR match barrel….That shoots everything else under MOA. Not going to try to create a workable load for 8 grains over the 70g TSX. I was also getting some flowing of the primers as well. Second picture is...

    223 Barnes 78g TSX Load Question

    I’ve always used a standard load of 24.5g of RL15 or Varget in my match shooting days and it never mattered if I was using a 69g MK, 77g MK, or 75g Amax. I never shot the 80g Bergers. Same powder charge whether shooting 200, 300, or 600 yards and it got me a High Master card back in the day...
