    Tac Ops Rifles

    Best group yet with my XRAY51. Alpha brass, Federal small rifle, 168SMK, 40.0gr. IMR4895, 1.616 shoulder, 2.205 ogive. Just 3 rounds at 100 yards, but I'm happy. Mike said to try the Federal T308T... I'll see what they do.

    Gunsmith to make AR barrel

    Isn't that how AR barrels are made in the first place? From a barrel blank?

    Gunsmith to make AR barrel

    I have a Kreiger 224 MTU profile barrel blank. Anyone recommend a good gunsmith or company that can turn it into an AR15 20" barrel? Install the barrel extension, gas port, etc. Thanks in advance.

    Rattlesnake in Arizona and frog legs in Louisiana, but that's not really that weird.

    Optics SOLD...SOLD...Tangent Theta 5-25x56 Gen2XR

    Tangent Theta 5-25x56 Gen2XR reticle, excellent condition, caps, manual, box. It is fantastic, but I'm hooked on the floating center dot reticles and I can't afford to get the Gen3XR..... $3300.00 shipped in CONUS. Mount not included. PP friends or Zelle. No trades unless it's a super like new...
