    LMT MWS or FN SCAR 17?

    LMT MWS (18" SS) with a Leupy MK 4 6.5-22. A chunk to carry but a pleasure to shoot. Likes the 168 SMK, also the 165 Sierra HPBT. Shoots way better than I can...

    Semi auto accuracy.....what's the secret?

Hold the trigger until the rifle returns to battery, then release just enough to re-set. I've learned this, and a lot...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Gen. 4 Glock 20; opinion and availability

    I've shot a box of 50 in my new 20 and it is accurate enough, but I keep shooting to the right and slightly low (I'm a lefty). Will try another box, then think about adjusting the rear sight. Thanks all for the advice and encouragement. JD

    Look at the Bug-out bag from S.O.C (Sandpiper of California). Lot of features you mentioned, well made and less than a C-note.

    Pulled 175 SMK's

    For removing tar, there is a product called "Goof-off".. I use it to get asphalt off of my vehicles. It smells like lighter fluid, and probably is.

I have 10 X 42's that I use on a stand and 10 X 32's that I'd rather carry. If they are going to be on the truck seat beside me most of the time, I'd...
