1980 vintage Remington 1100 that has evolved slowly over years. Choate furniture big safety improved follower and spring in extension Black Aces rail MagPul BUS Silly @$$ FH-like thingie. Ah well.

I personally know of two who appeared at Blackwater w/ Savages, and shot well. I am not a serving LEO. I do have a 110 FP Tactical. Tasco SS 10x42 MilDot, Choate (yeah, it IS butt-ugly), VersaPod. Rifle shoots 1/2-MOA or better all the time. Best is 3x group at 100 measured 3/8" x 0.451"...

Thanks for the input! Anyone else?

Trade it for a 3" roundbutt M-29! :what: Ask me how I know-

Exactly! And no one would dare fly a plane into the WTC. Any tank (or Warthog) can be killed, given a determined dismount or patient ATGM crew. Tankers know it, adn we take pains to avoid wandering about the battlefield w/o proper Infantry support. Contrary to opinions, we ain't stoopid, just...

God bless you and ALL your Comrades. May you all return home safely, soon!

I also heartily recommend Tactical Tailor. Great bunch, real-world 'got the T-shirt' bunch.

Anyone actually acquired/carried a Kydex for a Kahr? I have an MK-9 (that I dearly love), but I currently have it in a Yaqui Slide. Want Kydex for various reasons. - Opinions - Pics - Links TIA!

Better than my 50-63 that I sold for US$ 2300 a few years back. Get it.

The Century FALs are about 50/50 for problems, and I feel this is about the same ration for the CAI CETME kits. Notably, POI is about high/left a LOT for the CETMEs. The biggest offense on the FALs is the 'unibrow' feedramp and grinding the bolt locking step to set headspace! That said, a...

The GGG adapter plate is a real bitch for RH shooters. It is high enough that youwill almost always snag your fingers or fingernails on it as you drag the charging handle aft. Sux. Surprisingly, FAC has a nice adapter. Large ring for single-point attachment, but well below the CH plane...

Gracias! The several articles I read on HESH said only BD IIRC. I recall clearly the LIBD arrangement on HEAT from AOBC classes, and even earlier when I took 11E class in 1970. They (and their surrogates AND the Russians) still use this as an anti-armor round. Weird. I guess we make...

We've been making our own M256 cannon for over 15 years. the gun is a German design, but no longer an import. HEP was used as an anti-armor round (just not the primary one) and yes it is a large flying blob of C4. The detonation caused large scabs and spalling to occur on the inside of the...

!:o I am corrected, and THANKS! Isn't HESH similar to our old HEP round? Can you tell I used to live on an M60? But I did graduate as far as the M1A1! :) Me, I'm waiting for X-Rod. As far as spin/length goes, the problem probably comes from initial effortsto get a clean release. A FS...

That is how it was explained to me by a CR1 crew and boffin in FRG back in 1997. The HESH uses the spin to achieve some uniform 'spread', and bang! PIBD (point-initiated, base-detonated) round BTW. SABOT rounds in rifled cannon require bands that essentially null, to a large extent, the spin...

MV of an M829A1 APFSFS-T round goes about 1640 m/s, or 5380 fps, over a mile per second. The M829A3, nearing completion of fielding, is over 100 m/s faster. The physics of 'shock waves' from hypersonic projectiles doesn't support all the conjecture here. Stick w/some reality folks...

The 'chain' is driven by a pancake motor on the aft end of the receiver assembly. The chain itself is driven from a 90* gearbox underneath the receiver. The chain attaches directly to the bolt. Proper 'timing' is critical during reassembly, and one of the common malfunction drills involves...
