    Why no M855 copy in .308?

    Haven't ever seen this discussed here, and was curious. If the BATFE have exempted M855 as non-armor piercing, why hasn't an ammo manufacturer copied the design, and upscale it to .308? Or maybe they have, and I simply haven't seen it? Would make for some interesting penetration tests, and might...

So, satisfied that...

    NFA Paperwork Question :^)

    Well, I was just curious if anyone out there in the NFA/Title II owning community has used something like," The Second Ammendment", or " To fullfill my obligations to Congress as part of the "unorganized" militia", or anything like that, for the "reason" they were getting an NFA weapon :) ...

    SBR, Suppressor, or SBS? Too Many Choices!?

    I'm finally going to do it!! Taking the NFA plunge!! A suppressor is high on the list, but so is an SBR. The SBS is not really looking all that viable at the moment, as I have plans for a future Saiga SBS project one day when funds allow. Now to the SBR issue at hand. I am attempting to do...

    MOA and Scope Adjusting For Dummies...

    Let me begin by saying I am no dummy, yet lacking when it comes to understanding MOA. If my scope is calibrated for 1/8" adjustments at 100 yards, what is the adjustment doing at 25 yards? Is it 1/16", or 1/32" at 25 yards? Once I finally get out to 200 yards, what will the adjustment do then...

    Nosey, Over Zealous, and Blind "Good Samaritan"

    Well I had my firearm removed from me by a law enforcement officer for the third time since having my CCW license yesterday. Kinda funny, and infuriating at the same time, as it all started with some "good simaritan", trying to play detective or cop, and seeing things that are not there...

    Legal or Illegal to do this?

    If a person were so inclined, would it be legal to purchase 30.06 AP ammo, pull the bullets, and reload them into a .308 cases? If this is legal to do for personal use(I know AP ammo is legal for sale just not in handgun flavors), then who sells AP .308 and/or 30.06 ammo? PS- This imfo was...

    AR-15 Receiver Slop/Loose Fit?

    As I said in the now infamous ,"Sniper SKS" thread, I recently scoped my Bushmaster AR-15. I took it to the range and was getting beatiful groups of 1" or less at 100 yards, BUT after I started shooting more rounds I noticed wandering groups:banghead: . Grouping would either be super tight, or...

    Taking Down The NFA From The Inside...

    I would like to hear opinions on the idea of taking down the ,"regulatory scheme", that is the NFA, by using it's very founding principals against it. Since it is based on a tax, and all subsiquent modifers to the 1934 law are still centered around the tax basis(read as: legal because of the tax...

    RO Told me my gun was ILLEGAL!!!(WHAT!!)

    Went to the range today to zero my AR-15 pistol since I added the fold down rear sight and a BSA multi reticl dot, and the RO after letting me shoot the pistol all day, tells me it's illegal. He had been busy with a CHL class, but politely asked me to stop shooting while they did(guess the blast...

    Should I buy a used FAL for 1000 dollars...

    Or should I wait to get the M1A new? I really want them both, and don't have the budget for them both now though. If anyone has an idea if this is a,"good deal", or not, I would appreciate it. The FAL is ,"inch", if that makes a difference. I have not seen one anywhere else in this area, and...
