    DIY steel targets . . . continued

    Re: DIY steel targets . . . continued I see some of you guys have small targets in the 2-3" range. Were the actual steel circles DIY, or just the hanging mounts? Large circles, or IPSC targets are easy to find. But it appears some of you managed to get 2-3" circles...did you make them or...

    Large padded shooting mat??

    Re: Large padded shooting mat?? One problem I found with the self-inflating mats from the camping store. We shoot primarily in a field. Depending on the time of year, it can have small vegetation that may have been recently mowed. It took 1 trip to punch holes in both mats we used. We...

    Rifle Scopes Any updates on a NF FFP 5-25?

    Re: Any updates on a NF FFP 5-25? By BEAST scope, are we talking about something like the IOR Terminator 12-56x with absurd magnification? Or just BEAST in features like a 'revolutionary' FFP 5-22? Parker

    Suppressors barrel length for suppressed .308?

    Re: barrel length for suppressed .308? I definitely prefer shorter with a suppressor. My GAP 308 has an 18" barrel, but my DTA SRS has a 22" barrel (but it's a bullpup, so it's a 4" shorter rifle than the 18" GAP even with the longer barrel...). Anyway, just ask yourself if you really need...

    Rifle Scopes Took the Nightforce NXS Plunge today...

    Re: Took the Nightforce NXS Plunge today... What rig are you putting it on? Every time I start to purchase a scope with magnification above about 25x everyone starts to tell me I'm 'putting too much scope' on the gun. So I've never had the balls to say screw them and do it anyway. So I was...

    Advanced Marksmanship BBC interview most lethal American sniper.

    Re: BBC interview most lethal American sniper. While I would have liked more detail on the shots as well, I appreciate how he put more emphasis on the effects his service had on his relationships and his home life. Great guy, good book. Parker

    Sidearms & Scatterguns What I carry and how I carry it. How do you carry?

    Re: What I carry and how I carry it. How do you carry? I've been carrying a 3" Kimber 1911 for a couple years OWB. Using a Galco holster and belt (Galco belts, btw, deserve their own thread. They are absolutely epic. They make 'normal' belts look like girly-man belts). I wear an untucked...

    Suppressors Red Jacket Suppressor

    Re: Red Jacket Suppressor Well things keep deteriorating in my Red Jacket situation. When I started requesting concrete dates for production of the suppressed shotgun they basically started stonewalling and stopped providing information back. Guess it is to be expected. Parker

    Movie Theater Girl With the Dragon Tatoo...seen it?

    Re: Girl With the Dragon Tatoo...seen it? Thought it was a great movie. Pretty hardcore though--glad I left the wife at home. Loved the soundtrack by Trent Reznor. If you liked it then you need to see the Swedish version. Both are very well done. Parker
