      FN Scar-L in stock: Militarygunsupply

      They looks like something you'd use to smack sewer rats with (as in baseball style, not shoot) only painted desert camo.

      7mm rem mag as a sniper rifle any thoughts.

      This whole thread makes me chuckle on so many different levels. A milk-jug hit at 200 yards means 'it has the range?' I can hit a milk jug at 200 yards with a .22 with no wind. That doesn't make it a 'sniper rifle.' As someone pointed out before, what exactly makes this a 'sniper' rifle for...

      Advice on Varmint Rifle

      Look up some articles on .204 vs. .223 in varmint guns. The .223 is going to be more versatile with 45gr. screamin' varmint grenades or 75gr HBPT for yotes.

      Shotshell Stuck In Barrel

      Did the primer get popped or did it just get lodged in there? Either way, a cleaning rod will do in a pinch, but the wooden dowel reccomendation is spot on.

      Newbie wanting advise on shotgun purchase

      For the $1,000 budget, I would reccomend a Beretta 391 autoloader, but it's not MIA. The new Winny autoloaders are surprisingly well built, but it's hard to go wrong with an 1100/1187.

      dmps

      Just an FYI, the wait time on a GAP semi .308 is close to a year at this point. They do however build using a DPMS receiver.

      Newbie wanting advise on shotgun purchase

      So you want something that you can hand over the mantle, but bust down doors with, but also something to break clays with? Well, I would say there are no semi-autos or pumps that I would consider 'show pieces' for under a grand, and there are no sporting O/U's that I would use for home...

      Advice on Varmint Rifle

      The .204 is a screamer, but I'd hate to pay to put that many rounds down-range on a long p-dog day. As far as the Howas, I have yet to see a HB model that won't shoot MOA or less, and have never seen, handled, fired, or heard of anyone having a problem with a warped action...Especially since...

      9mm Replacement?

      Had a 2022. I used for a HD gun, not a CCW. It's VERY bulky, in true Sig fashion with a high slide axis and large grip. I went to a Kahr P45 for carry and absolutely could not be happier.

      what is with 7mm mag?

      I bought my M70 LRH due it's CRF as a donor action, but liked the heavy winny barrel and muzzle brake so much, I just left them on. I love the 7mm RM loaded up with some 162gr. AMAX's makes it an extremely versatile weapon for either poking out to long distances, or smacking whitetails with...

      For those with glasses...

      There are lots of options for prescription shooting glasses. None cheap, but most are good. There is a LOT of information over on trapshooters.com, since it tends to cater to a slightly older crowd.

      The "Distraction" Scheme Being Used to Rob NWI Hoosiers

      Well, it's terrible that we've come to the this point... Society really is circling the drain. But, I can see granny calling in the SWAT team on the local paper boy now.

      The Road

      Pfft... You know what I'll like about the movie? NO READING! ;) Seriously though, book snobs, it looks awesome.

      The Road

      Hope this isn't a repost, but I saw a preview for the movie 'The Road' during football yesterday. It appears to be a post-apocolyptic survival movie about a man and his family... No zombies, just other f-'ed up survivors. Looks awesome. :rockwoot:

      Ten Best Vehicles For Urban Warfare

      Gas-powered vehicles are all out. Do you folks not remember Katrina? Every gas station within 150 miles had no gas...but the did have diesel ;) Diesels will also not be affected by the EMP's! No buyer's remorse on my 7.3L 4x4 F-250 :)

      RCBS compatible dies?

      Agreed. But the only depriming I do with RCBS dies is for pistol rounds. All of my rifle brass gets de-primed on a Lee Universal de-primer as the first step in the process.

      Christmas: Chocolate guns and ammo

      Why not buy those 7.62x39 ice cube trays and just fill them with chocolate?

      AR-10, .308, from DPMS.

      The AR-10 is a superior platform to the M1A for 1,000 yard shooting. It is just inherently more accurate. But I digress, if you're trying to decide between a .308, .300WM, and a .338, you've got a lot more research to do. the .338 is a few leagues above and beyond the .308 Sounds like you...

      Rock River or Colt?

      I hope everyone realizes that Colts released to the civis are mil/leo contract rejects. RRA's can be ordered with 1/7 barrels with chrome'd chamber/bore, carriers are staked, etc. I don't trust anything out of the box.

      UPS Store is Anti-Gun

      They wouldn't ship a barrel for me. They said 'no gun parts.'
