    TX DPS - More than semiauto AND faster

    Re: TX DPS - More than semiauto AND faster In a recent incident that is far from unique, smugglers tried to get a very large drug shipment across to 2 pickup trucks on the American side.

    TX DPS - More than semiauto AND faster

    Re: TX DPS - More than semiauto AND faster Thanks, Luke. That is the kind of enemy our guys are fighting. It's not yet the kind of war zone that the Mexican authorities are having to fight within, but big drug money can buy lot of evil to use as its enforcers, and attracts the very worst...

    TRG-42 Mags on Sale!

    Re: TRG-42 Mags on Sale! Yes, just saw that! Weird. I could understand if they had been flagged as "on sale" when at $129.xx, but they had been flagged as "clearance"! Perhaps a flagging error? (should have been "on sale" versus "on clearance") Glad I ordered that 2nd one before the price...

    Accushot Monopod....Which size??

    Re: Accushot Monopod....Which size?? And, if not sure after doing what above poster says, still in doubt as to which one, go shorter. For situations where you need more rifle elevation, the rear of the rifle must come DOWN. Can't do that if your monopod won't adjust any lower. In situaitons...
