    AR Mag Refinishing

    I've sent all my AR mags to Mac's "Antique Restorations" :) http://www.shootiniron.com/. He uses GunKote as well and his pricing is fair (about $6/mag in lots of 24 including disassembly and reassembly). He's got quite a few colors to choose from (black mags look cool, IMHO, with a black rifle)...

    Short HOme defense gun "MP5 type"?

    Hey Justin, just for the record, an SP-89 is not a civilian version of an MP-5. The SP-89 is like an MP-5K without the vertical foregrip (and select fire capability). The HK-94 is the civilian version of an MP-5. The HK-94, besides not having select-fire, also has a 16" bbl and they're running...

    Laser or light for home defense carbine?

    If you want to use a light with a rifle, you have to have it on the rifle. There's no good way (that I'm aware of at least) to handle a rifle and light at the same time. If you want to use a light with a pistol, you can either get a separate handheld or mount it on the pistol. There are pros...

    Bwahahaha! Gamers beware!

    You did notice that sight is based in France, right? I think that says it all. You think they would have learned something from their history :)

    This may discourage some of you varmint hunters.

    Or it might make the hunt a bit more interesting. The only thing worse a varmint is a well-armed varmint. :)

    Replacement trigger for Rem 700P

    If the Jewell trigger in my AR-15 is like the Jewell trigger for the Rem 700 (which it probably is), then it's a great trigger. That being said, I won't really know till I get one after this (outdoor) shooting season is over. Gotta love winter.

    Can't get Harris bipod onto LTR

    Ok, I'm a friggin' idiot or I just needed to look at the problem with a fresh set of eyes. I loosened the tension screw in the exact opposite direction that it needed to go. Well, if you're going to wrong, no reason to half-a$$ it :) It's on now and solid as a rock. Thanks for the help...

    Can't get Harris bipod onto LTR

    Thanks for the response gunnut. Yes, I did unscrew the tension screw all the way. IIRC, the bipod was really easy to put onto the AR rail mounted swivel stud. I thought (and it appears I am incorrect) that the swivel stud on the AR stuck down a bit into the bipod plate. To be blunt...

    Can't get Harris bipod onto LTR

    After about 4 months, I finally got my Remington .308 LTR yesterday. For the record, I didn't get it because it had the word "Tactical" in the model name. I just wanted a relatively short bolt action .308 in all black. Believe me, I'm as sick as everyone of else of that overused word...

    B-Square scope mount for 870

    I'm looking to put a EO Tech Holosight on a Wilson Scattergun. The only scope/sight mount I am aware of that will go on an 870/Scattergun is a B-Square. I was wondering if anyone has any experience with this brand of mount on their shotgun and, if so, what did you think of it? TIA.

    Pre-ban assault rifles- worth the extra?

    I bought an HK-94A3 (all HK-94s are pre-bans) because I wanted the retractable stock. Even though I can't SBR it(which is why I will probably move to Indiana), I still like being able to have a 27" long carbine. The short length makes it very convenient when transporting it. I've always wanted...

    20" barrel or 26" barrel on Remington .308

    Cisco, thanks for the heads up on the barrel centering problem. I will be ordering it sight unseen and will be sure to tell the shipper to verify the barrel is centered in the stock or the rifle won't even be leaving my FFL - I will send it right back to them. Even after all these posts, I...

    20" barrel or 26" barrel on Remington .308

    Levelhead, I actually read your PSS tale of woe when I was doing bolt-gun research. That truely did suck. My shooting buddy has a 700VS and it's done fine for him. Makes you wonder why the PSS is getting the short end of the stick when it comes to QC. I will probably have a smith go over my...

    Tritium Sights for Mossberg 500

    Ted Yost uses the MMC sights and I trust the person that recommended Mr Yost to me so I'll be going with those for sure. I appreciate the feedback though. Thank you.

    20" barrel or 26" barrel on Remington .308

    Excellent info on the stock Mr. Townsend. Thank you very much. Looks like it will work fine for me. I'll be making a few phone calls on Tuesday to get the ball rolling on rifle #3.

    20" barrel or 26" barrel on Remington .308

    Thanks for the info gents. Well, it seems like the LTR will be the right choice for me then. One thing though. The 700P and LTR have the same stock, albeit a slimmed down version on the LTR., correct? It's still the kevlar and fiberglass composite, correct?

    20" barrel or 26" barrel on Remington .308

    Hello folks, I'm getting ready to buy a Remington bolt action rifle. I know I want a 700 series in .308. I plan on using it for target shooting at ranges between 100-300 yds, mostly at 100 yds. I'The 2 rifles I'm deciding between are the 700P and 700LTR. I don't care that one's a "Police"...

    Tritium Sights for Mossberg 500

    Thank you for the reply Major. I ran across that sight myself after browsing through the tome that is the Brownell's catalog :) A gentleman I do business with recommended a gentleman by the name of Ted Yost in Arizona for combat shotgun work. When I'm ready I'm going to give him a call and...
