    350 legend silencer

    I'd like to give you his response but unfortunately he passed away before being able to use it. I can tell you that the reason he purchased it was because he would be able to use it on his 350 as well as calibers under 9mm including 22LR. The fact that you can disassemble and clean it was...

    Can't get comfortable on my ranges shooting tables...

    What about going prone next to the table? I used to shoot at a range that also hosted reduced range HP matches, 200 and 300 yard ranges. Prone was shot at reduced 600 yd target at 300 yards.

    What Vises Are You Using (Barrel or otherwise)

    Vises are just like any other tool. Depending on what you're doing you may need different capabilities from your vise. As you expand your projects you're probably going to expand the number of vises you own. If you have an expensive vise I doubt you're going to beat on it. If you're doing...

    Barrel cleaning with alcohol

    I believe that running an alcohol patch through the bore was used more for those shooting matches between relays. You will probably see a slight shift in POI for a round or two if oil was left in the bore after cleaning. To avoid this an alcohol patch was used to remove any solvent or oils...

    Information to consider when purchasing a red dot

    So I recently purchased a Vortex Strikefire II red/green dot. After mounting it and looking through it the dot is not a dot but a slightly elongated shape. I've not experienced this with my Eotech sights. I wasn't sure if this was a defective sight or me. I've read where if you have an...

    Bilson Arms

    I just saw an ad for the company. It seems they have designed another option for forward cocking. I figure this video will show you how it functions. Has anybody played with one of these and if so what is your opinion of it?

    Reeeee!!! from DOD trannies imminent

    I'm not crying foul, I just expressed my personal opinion and experience. I said if someone, gender or sexual orientation didn't matter, was willing to do the job than I didn't have a problem with it. You say that women don't belong in combat roles but I think history and even current events...
