I use PSA as a boutique store on AR uppers. LOL. Their top end barrel is actually better than anything BCM has to offer on paper. My PSA 18in FN CHF SS410 upper shoots 3/4 groups at 100yds. My PSA FN 20in CHF CL govt barrel shoots 1in. Both using bulk match grade ammo. Lately it seems they have...

For non-competitive, long range use, Primary Arms 4-14x first focal plane scopes are the best bang for buck under $600. $230 to $280 depending on reticle choice.

No dice unless mount + sight is < $200 present value. I shoot 50+ matches a year. 40+ are outlaw matches where equipment is unlimited. Only one person occasionaly uses RMR setup.

The pair of kitchen shears I bought 20+ yrs ago is pretty good. It still shears everything from bones to soft metal effortlessly.

It depends on intended use. It's a worthwhile upgrade on an action match gun. Mainly you can clear a malfunction faster. Optional for public range, long range, hi-power type shooting.

PSA branded complete upper has different price levels and build specs. From the most $ to the least $. 1) FN CHF SS barrelled uppers 2) FN CHF barrelled uppers 3) FN standard mil-spec chrome-lined barrelled uppers 4) Freedom/PTAC barrelled uppers Most knowledgeable users look at barrel first...

More ammo. Better sighting system...optics. Invest your $ into the barrel initially. A CHF barrel if you want your AR barrel to last as long as your European AK barrels.

HSGI warbelt. Your choice of regular or slim width. It stays in place all day long.

+1. Like the OP, I estimated my 18-in barrel rifle would shoot the ammo at 2670 fps, since factory pulished data for Hornady 75gr BTHP is 2790 fps. I sighted in the rifle at 100yds using a BDC scope. Then tried shooting 500 yd and 600 yd steel targets using the BDC lines, no hits. Asked a buddy...

I bought a case of the '79 date-stamped Lapua M43 berdan-primed surplus 7.62x39 a few years ago. It consistently yields 1.5MOA groups using an Arsenal SGL-21. An unissued Yugo M59/66 with upgraded iron sights is close to 1MOA for 5-shot groups at 200 yards. I remember someone published a...

According to the internet rumors, if you practice this classifier enough times, you can eventually make it to the MA level without attending a single IDPA match. :) Personally I have never been able to move up the classification ladder at the classifiers. Match bumps only over the past few...

Magpul MS3, or MS2. If you decide later on the single point sling setup isn't for you, just switch to the 2-point mode on these slings.

If OP wants affordable name brand stuff. Aimpoint PRO + Primary Arms 3x magnifier combo is under $500. Else an Eotech XPS + PA magnifier. If it's only for range use, Primary Arms brand red dots + magnifier combo can be had for under $200. If minimum shooting distance is 100yds, I'd skip the...

My unissued Yugo M59/66 can print very respectable groups at 200 yards. Sights have been replaced with Tech sights. It took a few shots to adjust the POI since the typical diet for this rifle has been Wolf HP, which also shoots pretty good in Yugos.

+1. You can't expect much when $1k buys you 3 AK74s.

Finish is less durable than Glock for sure. A coworker just mentioned how his meticulously cared for M&P 9 is showing a rusty spot near the muzzle. He only uses it at the range.

Back to topic - 7.62x39 AK Accuracy Arsenal SGL-21 with Lapua surplus 70s era ammo is <2MOA at 100 yds. 5 rounds benchrested. Three rounds standing. Nikon 4MOA red dot sight. (The rest are 22LR hits) Arsenal SGL-21 with Russian commercial ammo is 4MOA at 200 yds. Prone 200 yds rapid fire; 1...

No rush. I don't think I can order the 24" barrel Sporter for another two years.:(

Has any Kel-Tec RFB owner fired a few thousand rounds without cleaning this carbine (detail-stripping)? I am trying to determine if the RFB is closer to a no maintenance required gun like an AK or a low maintenance rifle like the FAL. (For range use, not combat of course)

The integrated bipod is surprisingly stable considering it's not a fixed design when deployed. POI is 3-inch higher at 100 yards vs. bench-rest or no support shooting though.
