    AR Pistol Brace Question

    I build my ARs as pistols first using a Shockwave Blade Pistol Stabilizer, then take a dated picture for future reference. As has already been said, if they start life as a pistol they can be made into rifles, and back again. But for what it's worth when I purchased the Shockwave they included...

    Before we get too giddy...

    Koolmoose mentioned 2018 and that is significant. The party in power frequently gives up seats in the mid terms. The time to get something done is now. He is coming in with a unique relationship with both the Dems and the GOP, and he hasn't got much, if any political capital. But he does have...

    Human scent masking

    Does no one here use a "deer patch"? I agree that being aware of the wind is important, but sometimes... Anyway I'm an old timer taught years ago by old timers to use a small slice of deer liver or some such, maybe even a patch of hide to attach to your boot lace and mask your scent. Easily...

    How do you prepare a rifle (weatherproof, etc) you plan to bring to the bush for a week?

    Every October we take a week long grouse hunting trip into northern canoe country. Two years ago it rained all day every day for that week and without permanent cover there was no practical way to keep the shotguns dry. During use they faired just fine. They suffered far more on the 12 hour, 2...

    Article - New Term: 'Super Owner'

    The day after the report came out there was an interview of the author on NPR. I started listening with super sensitive ears since I definitely qualify as a "Super". To my surprise, it was a reasonable interview. Even when asked whether there was any statistical connection between super owners...

    Mold in my vault

    Basements tend to be cool. At 65 degrees and 65% RH you are nearing the saturation point of the air as far as moisture is concerned. It will condense and cause you problems. Warm up the air, lower the humidity and get some air moving. Fans and moving air alone won't do much if anything. The...

    ISIS terrorist attack at Minnesota mall

    In keeping with the sub forum ST&T... Locally we have heard a few items early on that may or may not make it to the national news. Local authorities commented soon after the attacks about several issues that caught my attention. In their praise of the off duty officer who stopped the...

    ISIS terrorist attack at Minnesota mall

    There's actually much more. I'm guessing we'll hear more over time but the officer, Jason Falconer, is much more than a part time officer and former C of P in a small town department. He is a firearms instructor, owns a training range called Tactical Advantage and teaches response skills to...

    1903A3 bolt face question

    Nice looking project! And the fact that it was your dad's makes it even more so. Don't worry about what anyone else thinks. When those arms were sold as surplus years ago they were intended to be used. The "how" is the prerogative of the owner. I've got a 1917 Eddystone with a similar story...

    Deer rifle for 12 year old

    Ding, ding, ding. +1 ^ A year or so ago I was asking the same question and someone suggested I look into building the AR option in 6.8. I did and the rest is history. It just might be the most versatile little shooter in the safe. It's light, can be easily adjusted to a youth's length of...

    Should you ever admit you are carrying?

    "What's that you say?" As has already been reported, here in Minnesota where Mr Castile was shot last week, we do not have a "duty to inform". It has been reported that Mr Castile did in some fashion do just that. On an MPR Program interview after this tragic incident, the guest, a...

    My next AR upper - caliber choice for deer hunting

    I was in a similar situation a year ago. I wanted to build an AR specifically for deer hunting, and more importantly, a deer gun that a kid could handle easily while walking through the pucker brush and willow sloughs, so a shorter barrel and adjustable stock of the AR were ideal. I ended up...

    Importance of illuminated reticle

    I realized that I have not answered your question, "would you give up a little scope quality for the illumination?" No I wouldn't but that's me. Scope quality is somewhat subjective too. What you think is great may be different for another. What quality are willing to give up? What are you...

    Importance of illuminated reticle

    I've got a Leupold Mark AR MOD-1 1.5-4x20mm FireDot-G SPR on my 6.8 AR. Part # 115387 $450 That's a MilDot reticle with a green fire dot. You can turn the dot off if you don't want to use it or if light conditions don't warrant it's use. I am completely happy with this setup for my...

    Good LED headlamp for night hunting, or whatever?

    Headlamp technology? seems to change more often than you'd think possible. A light is a light, right? With the advent of LEDs everyone is in the game and you can buy them everywhere. But there is a difference. I buy a lot of headlamps cuz I've got 17 grandkids and they lose them. :( For the...
