    LMT .308 MWS

    Speaking of the LMT DMR stocks, I just bought a MWS with one on it. Should be here in a couple days. I’m curious if others are pleased with them (compared to other DMR stocks). I like that it’s easy to switch out if needed.

    Trade GAP 308 for a Scar 17?

    FDE is mildly scary.

    Trade GAP 308 for a Scar 17?

    I suppose there’s some merit to this.

    Trade GAP 308 for a Scar 17?

    I don’t particularly want to trade my Scar heavy, but I have a chance to trade it for a GAP built Templar action, with a 24” Bartlein barrel, in a McMillan M40A3. I realize the GAP is worth more, but money doesn’t always equal a good trade..... Thoughts?

    New Shooter - M1A...

    Just noticed that this post went south very quickly. and the OP deleted his snarky comments...... Sheesh.

    New Shooter - M1A...

    This is a good response. Everyone wants to enter (insert your activity of choice) thinking they should win against people who have been perfecting their art for years...... Better to go in thinking you are there to learn and have a good time. Then, after investing some time, people start...

    Cheapest way toward a decent AR

    I have two thoughts about the OPs question. One side of me says that for 800 bucks you can get a Colt le6920 OEM2 without any furniture for 700 bucks. Then you get whatever stock/rail you want and maybe a new trigger later on. Could probably do that for less than a 1000 and be into a very decent...

    Post Count Bumping...

    The last paragraph is very true to me. I've found there is a strong correlation between post count and time invested as a member of a forum. If you spend enough time on a forum, you're bound to make some friends, and your post count will rise naturally.

    New M1A Scout

    Once you get the iron sights dialed in, you may just like them enough to stick with them until your eyes force you to get optics. I like irons sights on M1As.

    We're BACK !

    Same over there, but didn't post too much. Spent most of my time scratching my nuts and wondering what it would have been like to get the old hide back. Much better here.....

    Post Count Bumping...

    I was just talking to a friend recently about buying and selling online. He couldn't believe that I was willing to be so vulnerable. I told him, on the contrary, I've found that getting to know people online (in other forums, previously.) has allowed me to meet some of the more honest people...

    Looking for info on M1A type set ups

    Just thinking out loud here. If you buy a Socom (which is a great gun) and then stick it into a Gen 3 JAE stock, you will be well on your way to a Scar 17. That might be a good semi auto that would meet your described needs. FAL might be another option? Not sure about optics mounting for that...

    Looking for info on M1A type set ups

    The 3rd generation JAE is tremendously expensive for a rifle that you aren't looking to get ultimate accuracy out of. I'm not sure I would go that route with a Socom. A Socom will certainly mount into the JAE stock, but it's not really geared towards that. The Socom is supposed to be light and...

    New M1A Scout

    Are you planning on optics or sticking with iron sights?

    New M1A Scout

    The Scout is the best of the platform tied up in a neat little package. Good looking rifle.
