quite simply...yes

correct taliv, same ammunition. even with the lightest loads, it never seems to make a difference with the way my rifle kicks.

great to see so many replies both the colt and my rifle had standard A2 flash hiders. my buddy who owns the colt said that it was pretty much mil-spec, besides the fact that it was not select fire. now, i know that mil-spec is a pretty broad term, but I'm assuming that it meant that the...

Hello everyone, I wanted to share an experience I had the other day and ask for the experiences of some people with a lot of AR15 shooting under their belt. I have an AR15, doublestar lower with a spikes tactical 16" mid length upper. Only real aftermarket part is a YHM fold down front sight gas...

I had a Savage model 116 stainless steel pencil barrel hunting rifle a couple years back, chambered in 30-06. Had to have gone through a hundred different handloads consisting of many different bullet, powder, and casing combinations, a dozen different factory loads, two different good quality...

thats a good point, that even if it is wearing the barrel out quicker than conventional brass cased commercial ammuntion, the savings that you receive by shooting the super cheap wolf ammo will allow you to buy at least one new barrel by the time that its shot out. although this savings might be...

I shot a couple boxes of wolf 55 grain hollow point out of my AR the other day and noticed that about 15 out of every 20 rounds produced sparks from the end of my muzzle. This leads me to believe that the bullets have steel in them, and that the steel is coming in contact with the rifling in my...

Looks like I'll be getting a troy flip up rear sight and possibly that ARMS front sight, as I have seen in before and really like the idea/concept. Sure wish I would have known about this dang front sight cant before now. Now I have to either try to sell the DD rear sight and end up losing $15...

it's canted to the right by about 6 degrees or so. The way I see it, the irons are supposed to be precise, but how can they be precise when the front sight post isn't in line with the barrel anymore? I just placed the order yesterday for a KNS front sight post set with the different style posts...

I think I'm in the clear, as the aperture does move slightly as you switch from small to large, so I believe it is meant to be offset especially after seeing so many photos of standard A2 apertures that looked exactly the same. Unfortunately, the high level of quality on this sight allowed me to...

the picture was taken with my iphone about 10 minutes ago right after the UPS guy dropped it off at my front door, so it's not the best quality, but I can say for sure that it is without a doubt drilled to the right. I'm just wondering if its supposed to be this way or if, once again, I got...

I just received my A1.5 rear sight from aimsurplus today and immediately I noticed that on the large hole aperture, it looks as if the hole was not drilled exactly in the center like with the small hole aperture. There is more metal on the left sight of the peep hole than the right, making me...

great idea on starting this thread. I too have been faced with losing and gaining interest in guns, along with the idea that something is "wrong" with me because of my fascination with guns, and am happy to have some peace of mind in knowing that i am truly only human like the rest of you. Don't...

Sure wish I could find a new XDM9 for under $400!
