    Please sign and sway the numbers

    NomH3, I didnt ask you to support it, Im asking you to oppose it because it is not common sense. It would be common sense to oppose it.

    Please sign and sway the numbers

    Already an NRA member along with GOA and SAF. Already sent letters and emails and called all my state and national reps. Just trying to do as much as possible. Anything they can use against us they will. Even just a stupid online petition to them is a tool. It can be for us as well if we...

    Please sign and sway the numbers

    Hey guys, Ive been dormant on this forum for sometime but in light of all that is happening at the moment I dont think its good enough to stay logged into local gun forums anymore. Please oppose this as it seeks to ban private sales, "assault" weapons and "high cap" mags. Its the baby of...

    Thompson Center Icon vs Remington 700

    What do you guys think about the FN TSR XP rifle in .300 WSM? I own a couple of FN products and have had great luck with them. This was one rifle that was on my short list that got cut from the line up do to lack of online reviews and also noone i know has one for me to fondle.

    Thompson Center Icon vs Remington 700

    Well that sucks! Does that mean they are scaling back production and cutting quality to stay affordable? They are owned by S&W though, one of the oldest and biggest makers in the country if not the world, how could they be struggling? I guess the hard times are hitting gun makers harder than i...

    Thompson Center Icon vs Remington 700

    Also the more Ive been digging Ive started to hear rumors about Remington cutting corners in quality control to save a few bucks.

    Thompson Center Icon vs Remington 700

    Sweet. Seems pretty one sided for the T/C. Like I said I have the Precision Hunter in .308 and love the crap out of it. Its an awesome bench rifle and a friend of mine has invited me out to Texas for some hog hunting this fall. I cant wait to try it out. How about the Savage model 116 FHSS...

    Thompson Center Icon vs Remington 700

    So ive gotten a little bit of cash to play with, which is getting pretty rare these days, and ive decided i need a rifle for long distance targets / big game. Ive been doing some looking around and narrowed it down to two. The T/C Icon Weather Shield in .300 win mag or the Remington 700 Sendero...

    Re: Steel cased ammo in autoloaders

    It honestly doesnt matter much who makes the cases for hornady. I know they use top quality powder, primers and projectiles, so it should be "better quality" steel cased ammo. It seems to me that the problem was derermined to be unburned powder blowing back through the chamber anyway and had...

    If you could only have three guns...

    Sorry hit the wrong key. 0. My AR-15 when im done building it - food/fighting 1. My T/C Icon in .308 - food/fighting from a hide 2. My Saiga rifle in 7.62x39 - fighting 3. My 590 - food/fighting 4. A 10/22(or equivelant) - food 5. A bow and quiver of arrows - for when ammo is no longer...

    If you could only have three guns...

    slow, that kinda takes away from the spirit of the question. its a hypethetical scenario not what your really gonna have when the chips fall and its every man for himself. That being said i too dont belive that only 3 will do. For me it would be,

    HK's aren't for everyone I guess

    I would say skip the glock and go to a S&W M&P. Thats what i did and everyone said i was stupid to do it but now i have the best groups out of all my Glock fanatic buddys. The only issue ive had since the trade is that the magizines are back-ordered from S&W. On my way to 1k rounds not a single...

    Re: Steel cased ammo in autoloaders

    I saw somwhere that hornady is making steel cased match ammo now. Infact its on the second page advertisement in this months Guns & Weapons magizine. Ive always had great luck with hornady ammo. Maybe try some better quality steel cased stuff and see if your problem is solved.

    Confidence in your Carry Piece

    Ill throw my hat in the ring here with a vote for the M&P. I sold my g22 to get my M&P .40 pro series and have never been happier to get rid of one gun for a new one. Not that glocks are bad, they most certaintly are not, they just dont feel right in my hand. Like going from holding a brick to...

    AR-15 barrel twist rate

    i was cheaking out mr. holliger's website earlier and found a barrel i think i would like him to use on my upper. His SDM (squad designated marksman) barrel. Anyone have one? Its 20 inches long and comes with a 1/7 or a 1/8 twist. Any thoughts or opinions?

    AR-15 barrel twist rate

    mc223, John Deere has used Kawasaki engine in all thier lawn and garden equipment for years. Mostly because they cant build a decent small engine to save thier life. Kawasakis are some of the best out there. Thats why everyone uses thier stuff or copies it...ie the "gator".

    AR-15 barrel twist rate

    Thanks you guys for all your help. You've answered my question and then some. I think im gonna take mc223's advice and on my next day off give mr. Holliger a call and see what he has to say and what the out the door price is on a custom upper with a 1/7 twist. That way i can run heavier loads if...
