When I had my concealed carry permit I was stationed at Fort Bragg, North Carolina. There were signs along the road pretty much everywhere you either went into or through the installation, basically stating that concealed carry is prohibited on post. I lived in government housing on post...

An excellent, general assessment. I used to catch M-U-C-H sh*t for training my soldiers in combat skills, and even though I'm on terminal leave for retirement, I STILL get P*SSED OFF thinking about it. Hell, wear ANYTHING other than the bare minimum on your LBE/LBV and the POS pogues...

There's numerous rail systems for the AR out there, so the information in your post is too general for a simple response. It would help if you started off answering some basic questions: What is the current configuration of your AR? What do you want to use your railed AR for? What...

How about a 14.5"? This was originally a Bushmaster Shorty AK. Using the M2 for aiming by looking over the rear aperture. Lowering the stockweld slightly to use irons only. Chris

SRN: The intent of your originating post is quite clear, and clearly showed that you were NOT basing your statement on actual military experience. I pride myself on being an enthusiastic and innovative trainer of Soldiers, with good tactical skills developed over 20 years of study and...

I'm active-duty Army. Was taught "aimed fire" in Basic Training, and have been doing and teaching it to my Soldiers in the 20+ years since. So WHAT are you talking about? Chris

Another vote for shooting LOTS of ammo. This will allow you to develop YOUR wants, based off of YOUR requirements and particular shooting environment. Chris

I've got an ARMS #51 SIR on my Bushmaster A2: Aimpoint M2 in an ARMS #22M68 mount: In its regular configuration: After about 15 seconds, free-float & irons only. Chris

Surefire makes rail forends for the 870 and 500/590, so you're not going to have any luck with theirs unless you somehow modify one to fit your brand shotgun. If you're looking at trying the Surefire M900 weaponlight, I'd be hesitant to go with the quick detach throw lever model. I believe...

Vertical forends for shotguns have been around for a long time, such as the Choate model. What's the difference between that and the rail/grip combo? Chris

Just got the Vltor stock in today, but I'm still missing the castle nut which I've got on the way. I have a proper sight picture for the bead and good stockweld. The adapter is at its lowest point of adjustment, so there's plenty of upward adjustment available should I...

I'm working on an 870/AR stock project using an adapter from Ace Ltd, www.riflestocks.com What I've got right now is the 870 receiver adapter & pistol grip: http://www.riflestocks.com/info/ACE_Web_RA_Jpeg/RA34%20%20(870RB).jpg With their CAR stock "pigtail" attached to the rear of the...

dave3006 - I tried my M2 mounted in an ARMS #22M68 on my Ultimak and the height is just right when aiming, although it's just barely too high to cowitness the irons. I think using the Aimpoint ring will bring it down enough that you'll be able to cowitness the irons through the sight, and...

Thanks! Chris

tc300mag1 - What brand red dot sight was it? Chris
