Well, I'm looking to build a new rifle, and I'm just asking for opinions/suggestions. It will be a .308, and I've narrowed it down to either an AR-10, or an M1A. I love M1As to begin with, always loved the Sage Mod 0 chassis for it. But, also love the AR-10 platform as well. It will be used for...

How good a shooter is a S&W 4006? A friend and gunshop owner found one NIB and sold it to me for $400 plus tax. As it was unfired I figured that's a fare price. I already have a couple of .40ties but may hang on to this one. The reports on the Internet are mixed as to it's accuracy. Mike G

I promised picture of the Stevens 200 that I put together as a suppressed short range sniper toy. The gun was completely torn down, trued and sandblasted before Duracoat was applied. I polished the bolt and tweaked the trigger to about 4lbs., cut the barrel to 17" and threaded for 1/2"x28 tpi...

I am building a couple of AR15s and one AR10, as well as obtaining a couple of bolt rifles (over time). Question is, should these rifles all have the same type of trigger (single stage or two stage)? I have been told by some that trying to switch back and forth between both types can be...

Has anyone purchased this software? Is it worth the money? Shooter Ready

Just finished it. I read it all the way through and it was excellent. A first hand account of Marine sniper that stretches most of his career. It has some interesting things in it and I highly recommend it. Here's the Amazon for it http://www.amazon.com/Shooter-Autobiogra...5645&sr=1-1

We have been asked to help set up a hunting rifle for a young man who lost his right hand and has a prosthetic hook from the wrist down. I have built several rifles for handicapped people even some for paraplegics and we have set up some strange but safe and affective devises. but this one...

After a lot of research, I was dead set on purchasing an FFP scope. However, yesterday I read an article online (written by a member from here) that talked about how the FFP is ideal for a tactical scope, while for shooting tight groups at long ranges at your local range or competition, the...

Have a Palma rig outfitted with a Warner #2 rear and a Gehmann #566 iris. How the heck do you keep the iris from unscrewing where it's threaded to the rear sight when you change the iris adjustments? I wanted to adjust the aperture -- the range being 0.5 to 3.0 -- and when I turned it to the...
