    Suppressors Over the barrel suppressors?

    With the exception of ASE Utra and B&T, many if not most made in Europe are of the reflex type. And the best suppress over 30db just like American front mounted. Cant remember any complaining about ruined accuracy with them either. I'm most familiar with two Norwegian suppressors, A-Tec and...

    Suppressors Typical supressor price in the USA?

    A bit late perhaps, but just to add a bit more. Suppressors in Norway are bought mainly for hunting and some target shooting using bolt action rifles. They are extremely common. I asked one of our bigger dealers/importers about how many of the first-time gun purchasers also bought a suppressor...

    Rifle Scopes Mrad IS Meteric

    Slightly inaccurate, bullet weights in Europe is usually given in grams and grains. For example, my Norma catalog lists them first in grams then grains. Powder is usually grains, though as I recall, Vectan lists grams first, then in grains. And as aam says, a 0.15 difference in powder...

    I think it's time for lasik

    I had Intralase LASIK done some years ago and have been very happy with it. Preferred that to PRK. The operation went well and not much pain when i got home. By the next morning, no pain at all and could go about my business. Only regret not having it done sooner.

    Rifle Scopes S&B 2014 Line-up - some stuff I hadn't heard of

    The Short Dot 1-8x CC looks promising. I liked what I saw of the prototype, but its costly. They hoped to have it out sometime this autumn. Also told the digital overlays scopes are Govt/LE only... Btw, S&B also have nightvision which can be used as Single or dual tube NVG with 45 deg FOV...

    Re: NEW ZEISS HT SCOPES? I looked at them last April. Excellent glass but all are SFP From what Zeiss Norway told me at the time, Zeiss is moving away from FFP in all scopes. They only reluctantly made the new Hensoldt 3.5-26 in FFP....

    Re: LF seller to send a Surefire brake to Denmark Pladesmeden, you can just about forget getting a SF brake. You are looking at a $250 fee to the US State dept, and a further $150+ in fees for the exporter. So you end up with approx $500 for export and shipping for a 100-150 dollar part...

    Rifle Scopes New Hensoldt 3.5-26x56mm at S.H.O.T.

    Re: New Hensoldt 3.5-28x56mm at S.H.O.T. For hunting scopes they are now 100% SFP. But even with the hensoldts, he said 80% of sales was SFP. America was different, but at the same time pretty small in volume of sales compared to the rest of the world.
