    Sidearms & Scatterguns Vp9sk

    tansinator , I own a VP9 and love it, light years ahead of the M9 I was issued in the Corps, the grip and the trigger are a dream. Having fairly large monkey paws the grip of the VP9 is 100% what I needed. I did just buy a VP9SK for my girlfriend this Xmas and even with the funky mag bottom that...

    Rifle Scopes *JUST RELEASED* Nightforce NX8 FFP 1-8x24mm 30mm Tube & ATACR F1 1-8x24mm 34mm Tube Models

    Noted and thanks, I prefer the stark reticle of the Razor up to 6x, clean and not at all in the way (NOT the JM one though). This will be on a 223 JP SCR-11 for 3 gun and fun in general, which is already significantly lighter than a SCAR, at least one not on a diet I reckon, so weight savings...

    Suppressors First time buyer and want to only get one or two at most to cover all bases

    I'm using a TBAC Ultra 9 30cal for my 308 and 223, only had to buy a couple brakes and that would have you covered through your switch to 6.5 (I happen to be doing the same thing with my AI AT when I burn out the 308 barrel). The difference in suppression between the calibers is negligible due...

    Rifle Scopes *JUST RELEASED* Nightforce NX8 FFP 1-8x24mm 30mm Tube & ATACR F1 1-8x24mm 34mm Tube Models

    This is good info as I'm a Razor fan, perhaps not a fanatic... Has the NX8 arrived for you, if so, can you comment on the glass aside from FOV vs the Razor 1-6x (no rush if you said you'd review soon, I might've missed that)? The 1-6x is my second Razor and I think the clarity was stellar for...

    Rifle Scopes 1-8x FFP options

    I own the "heavier" 1-6x Razor and have no complaints, but I've also been blessed with far better vision headed into my forties than the rest of my family, otherwise I'd be in the same boat trying to squeeze the most out of my glass on a small frame AR, or just cause I want a 8x max, nuff said...

    What can I do away from the range to make myself a better shooter?

    Darkside-Six , I'm in New England and far enough north to get snowed in often, which I'm sure is coming soon... Could you advise on these "optical aides" that would allow me to work on dry firing a short action bolt with a 4.5-27x and a small frame AR with a 1-6x? I'll be working from prone to...

    Rifle Scopes 6-8 Months delivery from Vortex

    Not at all to undermine this conversation, but I think Vortex (as do many other manufacturers of firearms related merch.) just does smart business for the current state of the market, no? I'm sure y'all have considered this - that using discounts to put product into the hands of capable...

    So Stolen Valor is acceptable if you taken a bunch of courses from a dude....

    Thanks Redmanss , now I'm in the know! Agreed, a title exists for a reason and are usually earned at a great personal sacrifice. Sounds like this dude should've just rested on the laurels of good shooting more so than how that came to be in a sensational fashion...

    Rifle Scopes 6-8 Months delivery from Vortex

    Hey, just wanted to let you know, that when I was actually was ready to put money down for a Gen II Razor in early '15, Vortex direct told me something very similar, like I'd be in business that summer and I was calling in the middle of winter. Called the folks at Mile High Shooting and they had...

    Rifle Scopes New Vortex Razor Gen? 1-?

    Very interesting, hope y'all are correct! EDIT: I'll add to your suspicions and guess that it may also be FFP as well...?

    So Stolen Valor is acceptable if you taken a bunch of courses from a dude....

    Semper Fi brothers, small world, or not considering where we're meeting... CAX, the thrill of a massive live fire, miss the shit outta that stuff, garrison life, not so much. Especially with a few staff NCOs in charge I recollect having trouble at home and thinking canceling substantial weekend...

    So Stolen Valor is acceptable if you taken a bunch of courses from a dude....

    I was with 3/6 in 95-96, Kilo Co, but as an 0331 in the heavy weapons plt, not by any means a SS. Loud and proud though!

    Why the push for a switch barrel rifle?

    ^This, I agree totally and if one can show the patience in shooting a barrel in a caliber on an adaptable rifle until it's spent, they'll be a better shot for it and maximize the value in what's most likely a substantial purchase for the user, I know it was for me anyways... I guess it goes...

    Are there any Precision Rifle comps in the New England area?

    I'm also in New England, thanks for all the great info, keep it coming!

    Why the push for a switch barrel rifle?

    I've been hoping that number's wrong and with your evidence I might just make the jump to 6.5 early, thanks man! And sleeplz, with the AI AT you just loosen a retention screw and unscrew old barrel then screw the new one in, all threaded, like missed said sets you back about a couple minutes...

    Why the push for a switch barrel rifle?

    Just my 2cents, but after I burn out the 308 stock Bartlein barrel on my AI AT, I'll swap to a 6.5 for around $750, so for my situation it's a no-brainer, but you may have already considered this. To me, it's like graduating to a superior BC on the same rifle/optic. Then again, there's also the...

    Suppressors Picking a .30 cal can, too many choices

    Ah, gotcha, then for a TBAC setup you'd need a 6.5 Ultra (I'd get the 9, but 7 would work for you, the quiet's just so good...), 2 x 30CB brake and 1 x 223CB brake, done. This is very similar to what I have, with the exception of the 30cal version of the can, which is a touch more versatile. As...

    Suppressors Picking a .30 cal can, too many choices

    Another call out for TBAC Ultra cans, I've been at a couple events now with folks shooting varied setups and without fail people comment on how quiet my can is. I have an Ultra 9 on my precision short action bolt and it's quiet even on the first cold shot. Not to mention how great they've been...
