      Forum Issues

      I am having a few issues with the "new" forum software. 1) At times, even though I have hit the checkbox to stay logged in, I am logged out. Sometimes this happens every time I access, other times it goes a while 2) Threads are not saving where I was in them. Threads I have read open on...

      Vortex Razor Gen III 6-36x

      Of course, a few months after I finally convince myself to spring for a Razor Gen II 54.5=27x, they release the Gen III. Which means the price for the Gen IIs will fall. https://vortexoptics.com/razor-hd-gen-iii-6-36x56.html Oh, and now they include the lens covers and throw lever with...

      Survival Food Scams

      Maybe not an actual scam, but VERY misleading. I got an email from a company called 4 Patriots. They have a 3 month food supply for about $600. The good news is, they supply about 1500 calories per day, unlike some (Wise for one) who seem to think you can live on 600 calories per day...

      Vehicle

      Some comments in the You are getting Old(er) thread, and watching the new War of the Worlds got me thinking. One might consider getting a vehicle from an older/simpler time. A vehicle without any electronics will survive and run after an EMP strike. So back to Points and a coil...

      Duracoat Bluing and Park Finishes

      I was looking on the Duracoat site to order some things to coat my long range rifle barrel and action. And I ran across some interesting things. One is a Duracoat coating that simulates bluing. It is semi transparent to give the deep look...

      EBR-7C versus EBR-2D

      I think I have decided to not spend the money for a Razor HD on my .308 rifle. But that I will get a Viper PST Gen2. I am talking about MRAD, NOT MOA. The current reticle is the EBR-7C. The previous one was the EBR-2C, but there was a special run with the EBR-2D. The EBR-7C has 0.2...

      Vortex Viper PST Gen II versus Razor

      Have anyone spent any time behind both of these scopes? Razor Gen 1 or Gen II? And if so, is the Razor Gen II worth double the price of the Viper PST? Or the 70% more for the Razor Gen 1? I have spent time behind the Viper HD spotting scope and a Razor HD Gen 1 spotting scope, the the Razor...

      Suppressors Mailed to Your Door

      https://www.silencercentral.com/blog/how-we-mail-your-silencer/ Interesting, they have found a way to just mail your suppressor to you, once the paperwork is approved.

      Hmm, Reload .22 RF

      http://22lrreloader.com/design-details/ They have a reloading kit for reloading .22 rimfire. With the kit, a pound of powder, two packages of their primer mix, and some scrap lead, you can load 6000 rounds.

      Guns that made you go WTF, How did they ship THAT

      OK, how about guns that you bought, that were basically quality firearms, but for some reason something REALLY stupid made it out of the factory. Not talking about things that generated recalls, but one off things that should have been caught by QA. 1) I picked up a Mitchell Stainless...

      HD for .357

      What is the current wisdom on HD ammo for .357? It used to be 125 gr JHP. Still? I see a lot of offerings in 158 gr JHP. Asking for a friend of course. :D

      Guns You Had to Have, but Wish You Didn't

      A slight change up on some other threads. But what is a gun you HAD to have, then once you got it, you wished you had never heard of it. :) For me, one was an AMT BackUp. One of the first small carry pistols. .380 But made of SS, so HEAVY. Neat, but no real purpose these days. At...

      Hopewell MDS Clays Shoot May 30

      Starting a new thread on this. Who is up for some clays on Saturday May 30 at Hopewell? You can shoot either 50 clays, or they will be running a 3 clay shoot. They give you 3 clays at a station, and you shoot in a team of 2. So 4 shells, 3 targets.

      CB Radio

      This started to come up in the HF section, but I decided to split it out. Probably not a bad idea to add a CB radio to the comm mix. You may be able to tune your HF rig to the CB frequencies, however, under normal circumstances, that is not legal. So what are good CBs on the market now...

      SIG M17 Pellet Gun

      I picked one of these up since I had picked up a real live M17. And yes, I am planning on getting the SIG Airsoft M17 at some point. Here is the box as it comes:

      Vortex Venom or Holosun 501C?

      A colleague at work has a brand new Vortex Venom his is looking to get rid of. He can't use it due to his astigmatism. He is offered a pretty sweet deal. I was considering a Holosun 501C. This is for a HD SBR AR in .300 BO. Thanks for any comments or insight.
