      rifle optic options

      I have minor astigmatism; yes, but not overt. I like the 1x option. I did find some decent reports/reviews on the Holosun brand; several of them at $300 or less in green dot. Any reason to avoid these, or are they about as decent as the other options?

      rifle optic options

      Would like some suggestions on choices for an AR rifle optic. Here are the criteria ... please keep your suggestions within these confines: - $300"ish" or less (don't want cheap stuff, but can't break the bank on this purchase) - must be available in green projection (can be red/green...

      AR decisions, decisions, decisions ...

      Last night I read an article in the recent G&A mag about the new "HardCore" CORE-15 rifle; a top-end product. They raved on it, but they also spent a little time discussing the overall work at CORE, and how many major parts are now made in-house for quality control, including the barrels, etc...

      AR decisions, decisions, decisions ...

      About $630 out the door. The CORE even has a lifetime, any party full warranty. Hard to beat that, isn't it? Could I build one for that? Perhaps, but I'd not be saving much, plus the work, plus no warranty. Of the two, DPMS or CORE, which is "better", or are they a wash overall ? Show me a...

      Share any Kel-Tec Sub 2000 experiences?

      Mine is Glk 9mm version, and one of the older ones at that. It's kind of cool to have a folding, quick deploy carbine that will interchange with your pistol for direct fit mags. I thought cleaning was not too bad, overall. OTOH - the trigger sucks. No, I mean it SUCKS. No real ability to...

      AR decisions, decisions, decisions ...

      I realize that brand wars are boring, typically unsubstantiated, and irritating ... I am NOT trying to start one of those or be "that guy" ... But I need some reliable input from those who have first hand experience with a couple of brands, please. I have the desire to get a lesser-expensive...

      Trust question

      I currently own several NFA items (SMGs, suppressors). I also have a trust that was established back in 1999. It is possible to transfer the personally owned items from me to the trust, with no cost and only paperwork?

      Fun plinking, 15-22 vs 10/22

      I have both, and like them very much. I had a recent issue with the M&P15-22 bolt; apparently not alone on this either ... The extractor, pin and spring fell out. Don't know where or when, but you'll discover this in short order because extraction will become very spotty and you'll get a lot...

      Police showed up, +1 Brown county sheriff

      Speaking from an LE perspective, there is a lot of ignorance that goes around concerning anything firearm related in the general community, and unfortunately at times that also carries into the LE community. Most rural departments are a bit more "tolerant" and often have enthusiasts (as am...

      Well round 2 for carry on campus, State Government level now!

      Here is the proposed draft. READ IT! http://www.theindychannel.com/download/2011/1207/29945849.pdf Any state agency cannot over-ride this, should it become law. That includes the campus administration and staff. This is very well written. READ IT. Further, it does NOT cover private colleges...

      Politicians and your Rights

      Obviously, I agree based upon his record of voting on: gun rights (he support IN gun rights, but not national gun rights, in a flagerant disregard for the 2nd Amendment) Supreme Court confirmations (the last two in particular; he was only one of 5 republicans to vote for Kegan, and he also...

      Politicians and your Rights

      Hello, all. I've been a member for some time now, but rarely post. Bear with me. I apologize in advance if I violate rules or make a fool of myself, because I don't frequent this site nearly as much as I ought to. However, I'm fed up with something and I believe this may be of significant...

      Select Fire G17?

      I'm a Glock factory armorer, and also a LEO. No civilian may own/posses a Glock 18, nor a converted 17; they are ALL post-86 pieces of equipment that I'm aware of. Gov entities and SOT may posses with proper paperwork. For a while, our SWAT team had GLK 18s, but they were ditched some time...

      M11/9 Sten Mag conversion?

      I, too, am interested in this conversion for my two SMGs. Any specific, credible vendors to check out that are capable of the conversion, either here on this site, or other sites?
