Have an IMI 308 galil AR with the box/cleaning kit/ manual and stuff. Always wanted an m40a1. GAP rifles are looking good. Curently have an m24 so an A1 should go good with it right? Stupid idea? What are galils brining nowadays?

Don’t know much about the guy personally but he was one of the best actors of his era and passed away today. Was on his game in the movie Heat.

I remember the first time I saw Heat during the shootout scene that mag reload felt authentic and very real like he was fighting for his life.

The infamous mag reload scene.

What are the odds he got paid off?

Anyone here that have experience with Guide’s thermal clip-ons?

More specifically their TB Pro series:


These are starting to trickle into the European market, at a price that is reasonable.

I know it’s not Oasys units, but I wondering how these would stack up against Pulsar units.

Hi, new/old member here, first time poster, go ahead, pile on. LoL

I am thinking on adding a new caliber to my rifle collection, and is chewing on the idea of 6.8 X 51 over 6.5 Creedmoor.
Is there any updates wrt the Army fulling adopting the 6.8 cartridge?
Heard lots of rumor about the new cartridge, mostly bad, but then, there is always toothing pain when adopting a new cartridge. There were lots of complain when switching from 30-06 to 7.62 X 51, and then to 5.56 X 45.
Main driver is logistics, will the cartridge be mass produce, by multiple ammo manufacturers, other than Sig Sauer.

I would also love the see, Accuracy International AT-XC be chambered for the 6.8 X 51, if the Army fully adopt the cartridge.
I see advantage with 6.8X51 heavier bullet, higher velocity, and higher energy at 1000 Yards and more, than 6.5 Creedmoor, but then, will the bi-metal case be reloadable?

Greetings all. Happy dance, I think I have my sons AR-10's figured out - they are kicking out brass at 3 o'clock and shooting straight.

With that said, on the optics front we have a 3 bears issue - one is wearing a 1-6 Razor, the other a 4-16 ATACR, and they seem to agree too little, too much respectively.

I believe "just right" is the Trijicon AccuPoint® 2.5-12.5x42 Riflescope


Maybe I'm a bad father, but I'm an MOA guy and so we're sticking with MOA for the purposes of this. I'm too dumb to divide by 10.

So with that said - am I missing anything that would be a better value for the ~ $1000 range for a 2-12 (ish) scope?

This is for a 16" 308, so as a practical matter we're a 600-800 yard gun due to home range and ballistic reality limitations.

Requirements - illumination, holdovers built into reticle, parallax adjustment, $1000 ish ceiling, real warranty, hold up to AR-10, and I feel like the Trijicon is already on the porky and long side at about 14" and 22.4 oz.

Am I missing any better options?

I'm just going to post my vote for any position in the top 5. Maybe number 1. But, hey, there's some good scenes out there.

You don't have to post a link... just describe it if you want. Looking forward to discovering some new movies out of this! No restrictions on Genre, era or TV/Movie. Miami Vice and Magnum have scenes as great as North by Northwest or Dr. No.

Cheers!

Another one to add to the 45,000 or so young athletes that have “died suddenly “ in their prime - if only we could find a common theme, one thing , one new thing introduced like some kind of new performance enhancing drug or some experimental pharmaceutical? Any one have any ideas ?

I currently reload bulk calibers (9mm, 45aarp, .223 and .308) on my Dillon 550. I am wading into the waters of 6GT and was curious if it is worth getting a single stage press to reload that on. If so, how does the RCBS Partner Press compare to the basic Hornady Lock and Load? My grandpa has the RCBS that he said I could have, but the Hornady can be found cheap and I like the idea of the quick swap bushings so I don't have to change stuff around every time.

Have a like new KRG bravo fully loaded with all sorts of goodies included. See attached photos. Will come with all the bags for the accessories as well. For a r700sa. Only selling because I got a foundation for my vudoo. Stock has been filled with bags of lead bb’s for weight/ balance. Can leave or remove, up to buyer.

700 shipped pp ff preferred.

Hi
I got a used Barnard S rifle. Tested it out and seemed fine.
Now, if I close the bolt and lift it, there's just a tiny lift pressure. More or less the same as my other Zermatt rifle. If I close the bolt, pull the trigger, with no round in the chamber of course, the lift is considerably heavy than without pulling the trigger. Is this normal? What causes this?


Thank you

What's the concensus on Proof SS competition contour prefits?
The price is good I'm just curious how guys are liking them, and do they last as long as say Benchmark or Bartlein?

This is my old patrol rifle. COLT LE6920 with 16” barrel and carbine gas. I’ve planned on selling it, but I just don’t like selling rifles. It has the LE/MIL restricted markings. I’m definitely not interested in an MK18 clone. I’d hope for something at least 13.7” I’m opening to cutting down the barrel or swapping it.. or even converting to piston. Barrel probably has less than 1k rounds through it. I’m really just looking for a cool clone look perhaps with one of the KAS RIS rails. It’s just so boring. I’ve got a 14.5” piston that is awesome. Also open to maybe using a different caliber? It’s purely the look I’d be interested in.

Thinking about building a 18-20" Grendel. Will be shooting with my son at a local 1000 yard range and was thinking of building a upper for those ranges. I see stuff out there for Grendel but it sure doesn't seem to have taken off quite like 300 blackout or similar.

Is it worth the squeeze?

Athlon Ares ETR 3-18x50 with Mil reticle mounted in Warne mountain tech rings low with MKM bubble level. This is my second Ares ETR and I picked it up on impulse when I couldn't believe the sale price EuroOptic had them for, but I have more scopes than I have rifle to put them on and don't actually need it. In like new condition; just mounted din rings and taken for one range trip.

Awesome scope that punches well above its price point especially if you pick it up at this price.

$620 shipped for just the scope or $720 shipped with the rings and bubble level.

The Mil version is out of stock and even if you did pick it up at the sale price it cost more than this after you add in tax.
