    defensive carbines

    I'll second the Mini-30. I have two, one of which is stainless and I keep it in my truck. I really like the 7.62X39 round, and as such, have four guns that eat it: 1. Blue Mini-30 scoped. 2. SS Mini-30 iron sights 3. Norinco SKS 4. My fav, my AR-15 carbine, chambered in 7.62X39.

    Hi Cap ruger 10-22 mags

    Yikes... did the Tactical Innovation mags take a huge price jump, or is my memory not so good?

    Breaking News* New AR15 .30 cal cartridge

    I agree... I'm fine with my two .30 AR's... my BAR-10 in 7.62NATO, and my Colt in 7.62X39mm.

    Keltec announces RFB ship date (again)

    Shorter package, ambidextrous bullpup design. I love my BAR-10, so I don't need to pick one up... especially with the price of 7.62NATO ammo these days.

    new rifle..ar10 platform maybe?

    I have a Bushmaster BAR-10, and it's hands down my favorite rifle in my safe. It's incredibly more accurate than I am... And it's just friggin' COOL. Definately one of those rifles other people will stop and ask you about at the range.

    Mini-14: your experience?

    I have a 14 and a 30... as well as three AR's in three different calibers. I love all of them. For hunting deer, the Mini-30 is my gun. I have noticed in the past couple of months the bolt on my 14 has become stuck closed like another poster mentioned. What causes this? I'm able to whack it...

    AR platform as a woods gun

    For deer I use one of my three 7.62 rifles... For distance, it would be my AR-10. Up close and personal, my Mini-30. For all-around, my AR-15 in 7.62X39 with 16" M4 contour barrel.

    ambi shooting

    I shot rifle left and handguns right, with a dominant left eye. You have the best of both worlds! Like others have said, keep training yourself to shoot with either hand. In a tactical or a hunting situation being ambidextrous can make the difference between being able to make the shot and...

    winchester 67

    When you say you missed it, did the auction end with no bidders, or did someone win the auction? If no one won it, you can email the seller and ask them to sell it to you or relist it. I got some parts for my 67 on eBay, and it turned out to be from Numrich.

    Questions about Rifles for Appleseed

    A quick sling to use on just about any gun (without any modification to the rifle at all) is an IDF sling. They're cheap, and clip to paracord (that's included) that you've secured to the rifle. I found some on sale for just under $10 each. Here's a link to a site with them. You can also get...

    Ruger 10/22 (price check)

    We run into this in the motorcycle world, too. People put tons of "farkles" on their motorcycles, and plan on getting back a high value on them. Experience has taught us that in order to get the most $$$ back out of these farkles, it's best to sell them seperately from the bike. In this case...

    AR: To free float or not to free float; that is the question.

    The real question is what thickness is the barrel, and will a sling be used while shooting. If it's an HBAR or bull barrel for 100 yards or less, then no, it's not necessary. If it's a lightweight or pencil barrel, and a sling will be tied in, then yes, you'll want the free float to keep the hot...

    Another standardized magazine for US/NATO?

    One of the reasons I love my BAR-10 is that it takes the super cheap and easy to find FAL mags. You can find them for anywhere for $5-10 each. In fact, I would always buy some when I found them in my travels... then one day i collected them in one box and realized I had almost 18 of them...

    Good Source for AR Barrels

    Plus, you're looking for a mid-length. The vast majority of 16" barrels you'll find will be in carbine length. Keep us up to date, as I'm looking to swap out my 20" hbar with a lighterweight 16" barrel.

    AR-15 not chambering

    Yet they don't. For the most part, Mini's are NOT picky at all about what you feed them. My Mini-14 eats Wolf black box all day long... as does my Mini-30. Nary a problem AT ALL. Never had an FTE or FTF. However, due to the primer difference, my Mini-30 won't fire half of the Wolf MC I put into...

    Ordering my upper/buttstock tomorrow and have a quick poll

    I like the idea of collapsable stocks because they're more flexible... my short wife can adjust it to fit her, as can my kids. Also, the storage of them can be easier, depending on the situation. You can also put them in a shorter carry bag, making the case a little more managable. Also...

    Proper M4 shooting form

    Like others have stated, it's more comfortable. One of the reasons is that for the most part, they have their buttstocks collaspsed to a short length so that they can face the enemy with their chest squared, rather than in the traditional, non-tactical, stance of turning your weakside shoulder...

    What would you rather have?

    I'd rather have my ex-wife with me... I can outrun her easily.

    Having a hell of a time deciding on new AR upper

    A .308 AR sounds best for you. The recoil is negligable, not much different than the 5.56 due to the buffer system. Ammo will be cheaper and more plentiful than the 6.5 or 6.8. If you're looking for cheap ammo, at the expense of losing some distance, consider the 7.62X39mm AR platform. I...
