    Re: Sslaughter in Norway he surrendered immediately when the police arrived, dropped his weapons. Had the police then shot him (unarmed) you can bet that officer would be charged for that killing.

    Sslaughter in Norway

    Re: Sslaughter in Norway Police have a helo but that wasn't available and is also too small and not really suitable for SWAT in the eyes of the higher ups. For those jobs they usually go to the Air Force and the Bell 412SP's of 720 Sq (think of it as Norway's 160 SOAR). But in this case they...

    Rifle Scopes Short Dot Shoot Out ! Mk 8 CQBSS vs S&B 1-8x

    Re: Short Dot Shoot Out ! Mk 8 CQBSS vs S&B 1-8x Great review LL, a question regarding the S&B. How sensitive is it with regards to eye/head position? Do you need to have the head perfectly behind the scope in order to avoid shifts in POI? For 3-gunning/IPSC the Zeiss 1-4x varipoint had an...

    Suppressors Travelling overseas with supressor

    Re: Travelling overseas with supressor Well, don't know about all other countries, but you will have NO problems with bringing a suppressor to Norway (from an import POV). Sweden is much more difficult, so if you are going there, I'd recommend leaving it at home.

    AMP DSR and DTA SRS

    Re: AMP DSR and DTA SRS Unless the DSR-1 have gotten significantly cheaper in the last years, you should be able to get the DTA quite a bit cheaper. The last time I saw the DSR1 listed was when the now defunct Scanarms was the official importers. At that time the DSR1 sold for almost $20k...

    Night Vision NV outside U.S. ?

    Re: NV outside U.S. ? Front mounted are available in Norway, but unfortunately its the ATN PS22 gen2 and not the better manufacturers. Not sure if they can re-export it. Simrads' is another option though very expensive.

    Rifle Scopes SWFA to canada?

    Re: SWFA to canada? SWFA does not export. I think its mainly because its a lot easier to simply say no to all foreign orders rather than having to deal with deciding which scopes are okay to export and which are not. My guess would be that the risks and consequences of screwing up and...

    System Insight

    Re: System Insight Noel, the Brits went with a rifled gun to shoot HEP/HESH and HEAT rounds more accurately. Rifled bore helps those in that respect. But has the downside complicating the use of APFSDS-T which is better if it doesn't spin. The rest of NATO uses smoothbore and last I read...
