I finally have heavy enough bullets for the 1 in 7 twist and was going to sight in my high priced no magnification red dot sight @ 100 yds. I find that @ 71, my eyesight is the 2nd thing to go. I was thinking of a magnified ACOG, then had someone disparage that idea. I have it fitted with a high...

I just bought a Sig P226 x5 Allaround - fantastic shooting but the 1st shot is DA. I am an old 1911 guy and think I'll spring for another from Sig's Mastershop in Germany. The x5 & 6 have the ambi safety just like my 1911s so they could be carried in pos. 1 - cocked and locked like I do my 1911...

I have a number of ARs, 1 w/Bushnell 4-12x50, 1 w/Aimpoint red dot, 1 w/Eotech. I have a 16" LaRue OBR .223 on order that is said to be a tack driver and recently looked at a 4x Trijicon ACOG that blew me away in the store. The dilemma is what to mount on the LaRue when it comes in (have backup...

Tally - I have emailed as many congressmen as I could daily and from my district as well - I sent Boehner a fax this afternoon. I have been told I'm getting radical in my old age but these people are the problem - apathy, ignorance, on the dole, etc. At 70 I have never seen such a mess - it's...

Riots in our streets and true revolution? I stopped by my membership indoor range tonight - revolution is what they predict. I asked "where do I enlist?" and the answer was it will come to you. Well I can only shoot 1 AR at a time and have more than 1 and plenty of 30 rd mags. Enough of the...

That was what I was counting on - I am willing to pay a premium list price for a premium product but not list +. I think I may be in the minority there so may still be able to put a real nice one together and I'm not in a hurry. I have plenty now so it's a decision which one to take to the range...

You are soooo right I just ordered a Larue Tactical OBR a few weeks ago and I was #18 on hold when I called. Luckily, my FFL friend placed a large order long b4 I did so I have my foot in the door there too. You are right though, sellers getting list + 125% on auctions!

I'm a relatively new member but old shooter. Subject: I have owned and still do a number of AR type rifles & carbines. They have always been "store bought". I am seriously considering building a 16" flat top carbine in .223. It looks like it would be easier to buy pre assembled upper & lower but...

This is not an offer to sell. I want to but wife disagrees. This pistol was built after the Interarms era by S&W. Slide highly engraved w/gold eagle on one side. It also has the deeply engraved florientine rosewood grips. I have never shot the gun (that's why I want to sell it) - it's new in the...

Yeah Cloudcroft - you sure want a reliable gun I just happen to have the little NAA .22 Mag - just bought it - never have had the chance to shoot it yet - your news is disturbing. My daily CC is a Seecamp .32 in a hip pocket holster by Guru Dave - I never even know it's there - comfortable. Had...

Well - Bond won out Went to visit the little factory last Friday - had a nice visit and had some of the real important (to me) features explained. Stopped by my local dealer and ordered a Cowboy Defender - think I'll carry & shoot it a little & then have the engraver in Abilene do a real trick...

Here's my 2 cents Years ago my CCL instructor said that 75% of the class would never carry on a regular basis because of the size and weight of the weapon they chose. Fooled him!!! I've had my .32 Seecamp in my back pocket wallet holster (by Guru Dave - excellent holster) 24-7 ever since...

OK - you figured me out I guess what I really was asking without wanting to do so is quality wise - which is better - the Bond or American? There have been some excellent points made by many responders that I would not have thought of & yes - I'm definately keeping the Seecamp. since custom...

I'm looking. I really have my eye on the American M1 in .45LC/410 polished and scrolled - lots of bucks for this poor boy but I saved 10 years for a Rolex when I could have afforded a Timex right away. Sorry, I lost the thread I was reading last night on this subject but some were discussing the...
