    I never see full length AR-15s

    Yeah, I know what you mean, for quite a while now I've yearned for the triangular handguard, grey phosphate lower receiver, fixed irons and "waffle" groove 20 round mags. You can still find the waffle variety 60's era mags, they just don't usually have the springs and followers, but if you're...

    What's the Cheapest/Best Way to Camoflauge a Rifle?

    That guy painted a high dollar trijicon ACOG's light collector thingy didn't he? Isn't that bad? Correct me if I'm wrong but wouldn't that interfere with the optics ability to allow available light sources into the optic?

    Have Ruger 10/22's ever been employed by any Law Enforcement/Military units?

    @OBG, thanks, that's the most interesting thing I've heard about Ruger 10/22's all day, although I would probably never mistake the 10/22 for a non lethal means of riot control. Interesting

    Have Ruger 10/22's ever been employed by any Law Enforcement/Military units?

    I was just now thinking to myself that if the military was to ever adopt a .22 caliber rifle it would probably be a 10/22 variant. Which got me wondering if 10/22's were ever employed as a tactical weapon in an official context. I have always been a 10/22 fan and just wanted to know if...

    Internal magazine VS. Detatchable box magazine (pros and cons)

    I bought the Marlin XS7 in .308 the other day, I am going to wally world later to select a scope, not exactly too keen on what I'm actually lookin for but I intend to spend at least a hundred and change. Its my first bolt gun/scope combo besides a Remington 770 that I had for only one night...

    Internal magazine VS. Detatchable box magazine (pros and cons)

    More than likely, hunting will be the only use for this gun, but I prefer every gun that I invest in to be of some tactical/defensive relevance, is there any with a internally fed bolt gun? I know its only a $325 rifle, but that is about all I have in my gun fund right now so I can't...

    Internal magazine VS. Detatchable box magazine (pros and cons)

    I recently implusively put money down on a Marlin XS7 .308 (I believe) that looks exactly like a Savage that retails for $325. I was opting for a detatchable box mag but sacrificed this feature because the price was right. Does anybody have any comments relating to this difference as...

    Gun related names for a kid.

    Its wierd that I come accross this thread 1 day after talking about how irritating it is that this little wanna-be gang-banger dude I know of names everything in his family after a gun. His son: Gauge His dog: Mac-10 His other dog: Tech-nine He has two 1911's tattoed on his back and when...

    Help me to settle a debate in progress regarding AR-15's

    That is exactly what I thought except I thought that M4's were 16" in length. Hmmmmm, is the amount of range lost with a 14.5in barrel as opposed to a 16in barrel as minimal as the added manueverability of a 14.5in barrel as opposed to the 16in barrel, if that makes any sense. Anyway, I'm...

    Help me to settle a debate in progress regarding AR-15's

    As I am posting, there are 2 people who are debating with each other as to what the differences in AR-15's, M4's and M16's. I am not exactly sure as to what the differences are so if somebody could give me a detailed description regarding what makes each one different, that would be...

    Gun pictures with items in the trigger area

    This is a little off topic but it still applies in the sense that people are a little too emphatic about being "safe". I personally hate it when I'm watchin a youtube video or somethin and the guy safety checks the weopon 57 times and verbally emphasises the fact that he's safety...

    Hickok45 Groupies?

    The mans voice has a wierd tranquilizing effect on me, I watched a video he did on M1A's after I had bought one and I remember watching the video like 30 times in a row cause his voice was making my head feel all tingly. I can see why he has such a following

    Interesting call from a student...

    Sounds like something that would happen to me, except I would have had my gun on me so in this case I would have made it verbally apparent that I would not consent to a search and after being cuffed would be practicing my right to remain silent because at that point, they obviously got it all...

    AR ammo question

    @ Tim the student: Thanks for clearing that up for me. I've had a pretty cloudy perception of that term for some time now, pretty simple actually.

    AR ammo question

    Well I just loaded 10 into a usgi mag with no problems at all, but definitely, if that bullet was a fraction of a measurement longer, there would be an issue. So do you think it would be a safe bet to load a mag or two to keep on hand for wcs(worst case scenario)

    AR ammo question

    Is Hornady TAP 75gr .223 a suitable HD ammo option for an AR? I was told by one guy that it would be great for HD in an AR as long as your effective range doesn't exceed 50yrds or so, but a different guy told me something about the headspacing and that the 75gr was too big for an AR. I don't...

    AR-15 Sight Question (Magpul and Yankee Hill M&T)

    Why wouldn't the rear magpul site suffice as a primary, I hate to think I spent $100 on an ineffective set up. I am somewhat new to the game and guess I had a little too much good faith in the guy that was selling this set at a gun show over the weekend, he said he was a certified colt...

    AR-15 Sight Question (Magpul and Yankee Hill M&T)

    I have a DPMS sportical flat top and I recently bought front and rear iron sights for it and was wondering if there was anything questionable about this setup: Magpul rear flip up Mbus (back up sights) and a Yankee Hill M&T flip up front sight. I'm just not entirely sure that the Magpul...
