    Perfect vs One Gun

    Growing up I saw myself as a "variety is the spice of life" kinda guy, but in practice I find myself just thinking "well what's this gonna do that my 30-06 doesn't do already just fine?". I inherited my father's impulsiveness and my mother's thriftiness, which made me a compulsive shopper with a...

    Does astigmatism mean it's irons or bust?

    I got the Romeo 5 as an entry level option but to me the dot looks more like a grape vine than a pinprick, it's not so crazy that it's basically useless but it's like I have a diagonal line for a reticle that is hard to find the true aim point on. Are there other red dots I can try that would be...

    You’re limited to 8 rounds, what’s your choice?

    Thought about this a lot when I was thinking about moving to California for work... 2 WORLD WARS, BOY

    Streamlight vs Surefire for a HD rifle light

    Looking at two or three options on amazon right now, a lot of people call the Surefire Scout Light Pro the buy once cry once option and at 330 it certainly lives up to making me want to cry, the Streamlight 88066 (and 88059, not sure what the difference is between models) is 1/3rd the price and...

    Is there such a thing as an A2 free float handguard?

    Came stock on the rifle, just says Ruger on it https://ruger.com/products/ar556MPR/specSheets/8514.html

    Is there such a thing as an A2 free float handguard?

    That's the main thing I hate about my MLok handguard, there's like seven cut outs around the gun and if I could plug them up I'd be fine but four of them are curved slightly so they can't accept mlok stuff even though they're perfectly cut otherwise.. it's like they added four big holes my...

    Is there such a thing as an A2 free float handguard?

    The more I work on my gun the more I find myself going back to the A2, I was very excited to drop all sorts of lasers, lights, and grips on my gun, but now I find that just getting a comfortable grip on the handguard is all I'm doing with the mlok. The big KAC broomstick grips that were so...

    Anyone ever have a dog afraid of guns?

    You know that might be it possibly, my brother used to have friends over for airsoft wars in the backyard and she seems equally frightened of my brother's airsoft 92FS.. kinda wonder if she got let out on accident during one of their wars and that noise was enough to make her associate the vague...

    Anyone ever have a dog afraid of guns?

    I really don't understand how this is happening, whenever I pull my guns out of the box she tucks her tail and feels the room. If the door is closed she sees herself to the corner nearest the door, and she moves her head away my hands until I force her to see they're empty at which point she...

    Is SXP a worthwhile alternative to a Mossberg 500?

    I'm the only person on Earth who genuinely thinks Glocks look neat

    Is SXP a worthwhile alternative to a Mossberg 500?

    Yeah when I've checked i've seen a few on occasion but they're usually the hunting variants or 20 gauge or both, I'm trying to be firm on 12 gauge, and i have an utter hatred for mossy oak I can't explain

    Is SXP a worthwhile alternative to a Mossberg 500?

    I've been wanting to get my first shotgun for a while now but I've been sitting on my hands because I wanted to get a Mossberg 500, everyone treats it like anything else is almost a knock off. I've been waiting for a few weeks now just checking stocks and my LGS hasn't had a restock at all, and...

    What battle rifle to get?

    Usually I like to put together fighting rifles, the "it would work in the real world" factor is a big part of the cool of a weapon; although I can also place it in the era so I'm not sit around putting rails and acogs on mosins.

    What battle rifle to get?

    Technically it's video game nostalgia, hence the mishmash of cold war obsession and 20 minutes into the future tacticool gizmos.

    What battle rifle to get?

    I'm just gonna get a Garand anyway so I wouldn't really consider an M14; I crave some variety.

    What battle rifle to get?

    Oh I'm no wanna be commando, but is that not the term for full power semi-auto rifles? Anything that can make it through the US navy and maintain a reliable supply line is gonna need something bigger.. what kills Godzilla again?

    What battle rifle to get?

    I guess I just want something different? I was originally looking at another 5.56 rifle too but all the options I have found just seem like they're expensive rifles that do the same thing as an AR15 as well or less well but they look different. I guess just I already have an AR15 in 5.56, it's...

    What battle rifle to get?

    I've been wanting to add a .308 rifle to my collection, and the three main things I keep coming back to while looking around are the FAL, the G3, and the SCAR 17. I've heard a lot of people say the ergonomics are the G3 are really bad but FAL mags are expensive. The Scar has been the hardest to...

    Is the SP5 worth it?

    I mean I just don't feel like that's a fair price for one. I don't know what it costs like the military or police to buy one but I can't imagine an individual MP5 costs much more than whatever the military pays for an M4; and I get we aren't getting the same price as a department or military...

    Is the SP5 worth it?

    Always loved the MP5 in video games, was so excited when HK finally released a civilian version of the gun, and now I'm still seeing prices hovering around 4k. There's no way that's what it even comes close to costing HK to put those things together, but I would have thought that the price would...
