    LMT worth the extra 1k?

    So, I have been cruising the LGS looking for a decent 308/7.62 AR style rifle in the $1500'ish range. I was pretty set on the Ruger SR762 as I like Ruger products, they are overbuilt and last. I saw the Sig 716, the ruger, an M&P, some other brands but wasn't really sold on any of them...

    Inappropriate Scope? Leopold VXIII with Boone and Crockett on Ruger SR762

    So, I was looking at getting a Ruger SR762 and was going to mount my VXIII 2.5-10x with a boone and crockett reticle. The guy at the shop says "not to put that scope" on that particular rifle (i already own the scope and have it on another rifle). If just using the rifle at the range for...

    Picked up a new AR10... What do you think and suggestions?

    Love the sig video, it IS laugh out loud stuff there! Never understand why people buy something and then dump $$ into changing it up. With the cost of the upgrades and original purchase price you could have built exactly what you wanted.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Whats the best designed true fighting knife

    A buddy of mine makes these for some spec ops guys. These are hand made and are not knife fighting knives, but knife killing knives. The features incorporated into the designed are to work with knife killing techniques taught to people that do that sort of stuff as their profession. It is...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Ordering my first 1911, a Wilson Combat CQB. Have a few questions...

    nice your first 1911 is a wilson combat? I recommend you also buy an inexpensive one like a RRA or Taurus or something you can beat on and learn to take apart. When you scratch it or lose parts you will not be as upset as when you do it to the WC. jm2c

    Powder degradation and limited ammo lifespan

    I guess I should clarify. I know old ammo, power and primers work as we have all shot old ammo successfully. The question is, IS NEW powder and primers having degradation properties engineered into them? It wouldn't surprise as modern business is as unscrupulous as ever but firearms...

    Powder degradation and limited ammo lifespan

    Someone told me something today that I had never heard before, that ammo has a shelf life. Anyone know if this is true? I remember using 40 year old ammo in the past with no problems but new ammo will not last that long.

    Mega AR Range Report

    Actually, It was my drill sergeant illustrating to non-shooters that the M16/M4 recoil is nothing to be worried about.

    Mega AR Range Report

    Why would you have a break for a 5.56/2.23? I have actually seen people shoot these with the stock up against their balls with NO muzzle break, with no problem. You only need a break for something that kicks and not a pea shooter like a 5.56. jmo

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Do any of your guns have a decocker? Check this!

    Re: Do any of your guns have a decocker? Check this! My ruger P90 has a decocker and I have never had any problems of any kind with any ammo, ever. It's been 100% reliable.

    (100YARD), Semi-Auto, 6groups, 30round SHOOTOUT!

    Re: (100YARD), Semi-Auto, 6groups, 30round SHOOTOUT! I must have missed something somewhere. I thought the whole point of this post was NOT to measure which rifle will shoot sub-MOA all day but which shooter (with their rifle) can shoot sub-MOA all day. Supported by a standardized...

    ASA 16inch 306, anyone have experience?

    Has anyone used, seen in use or heard second hand about ASA' (American Spirit Arms) 16" bull barreled 308 carbine with the side charger. That's about the spec I'm looking for (308 w/16" bull). I know they had some quality issues a while back but the ownership changed hands and their...

    Left Hand friendly AR form factor

    Re: Left Hand friendly AR form factor What I meant by left hand friendly was not a lefty rifle but a standard right hand rifle that ejects brass straight out or preferably (spelling) slightly forward. Although my bolt action is a lefty... I would think selling a lefty rifle would be more of...

    Looking to move from a left handed bolt action 7mm Rem Mag to a 308/7.62 AR type weapon. Any suggestions as to which mfg rifles consistently eject their brass in a left handed shooting friendly manner, say eject either strait out the side or even forward a little. I am particularly interested...
