      Primary Arms Deluxe Scope Mount Quality?

      I've been comparing a few one-piece mounts: Burris P.E.P.R., RRA, Armalite, Larue SPR, and the Primary Arms. I like that it doesn't have the unnecessary top-mounted rails like the Burris. The primary arms has exactly the features I want, and as a bonus, looks great, and is a few buck cheaper...

      TPS 3/27/11 Match

      I hear folks help set-up for the match at 12:00 on sat... I'm planning on making my way over there in a few. Is 12:00 right?

      Dear Tacticool Ninja Crowd... My apologies.

      Dear Tacticoolaid-Drinkers, My bad. I’ve become increasingly impatient with the seemingly overzealous tactical “enthusiasts” and today I believe that impatience came to a halt. It seems that lately my gun shop visits have all included some sort of casual run-in with people interested in...

      AR-15 stock length question.

      For my midlength 16" rifle build, I'm considering several stock options. My primary concern is length (as in length of pull) since it appears that both carbine and rifle length extension tubes will work fine. The length of pull that seems to fit me best is an M4-style adjustable stock (RRA...

      FS: Glock accessories: Lone Wolf etc.

      I'm trying to make a little progress toward financing an AR build, so the following items are for sale. I'm located in Denham Springs, and will probably be at the Tangi match this month if that's convenient for someone. Prices are cash face-to-face. If you're out of town and interested, just...

      MotoGP anyone?

      I have to confess... As much as I enjoy fifty-yard touchdown passes, two hours of left-hand turns, and jerks voting each other off the island (a bit of sarcasm toward the end there) the entertainment outlet that I go to most often is MotoGP racing. There is something about a two-wheeled...

      Picked up a box of "new" primers today

      Alcan anyone? I've only heard of these, and never handled any until now. Finding load data should prove to be an adventure :D. I may have to raid my pop's archives.

      Coffee Anyone?

      ...and this is not a starbucks open carry thread. I've been enjoying quite a bit of coffee lately, and noticed that the shooting community as a whole seems to have a similar interest when it comes to beverages. I guess it's because we can't enjoy a few cold ones before running through a...

      why is this bullet profile not more popular?

      It seems like this in a 9mm (147 grain?) would feed reliably as well as provide a bit of a shoulder to help punch a clean hole in paper targets. I also don't see any reason why it would be problematic, such as casting difficulties etc. Anyone?

      Outdoor Channel Competition Coverage

      I was viewing information on Matt Burkett's website, and came across a reference to ESPN coverage of a "Pro shooter skins match." With a little more reasearch I found that the Outdoor Channel now covers it as well as a lot of other competitive shooting events, including: the 2009 steel...

      Where has this brass been?

      I've been coming across some 9mm brass that has a significant bulge near the headstamp. I know a vast number of people are ready to yell "Glock belly" or "Glock bulge" but I'm shooting a Glock, and when compared to my spent rounds, these cases are noticeably more bulged. I'll attach some...

      Why Whisper Cartridges?

      It seems to me that nearly everything that needs to be done with a whisper cartridge can be done with a large-bore handgun cartridge, fired at subsonic velocities. A 44 magnum, 50 AE, and 500 S&w can all be loaded to subsonic velocities using heavy bullet weights, so why reinvent the wheel...

      USPSA 9mm minor loads

      I've been working on a 9mm managed recoil load that will meet USPSA minor power factor and function reliably in a G17 at the same time. So far my best luck has been with between 4.0 and 4.5 grains of W231 under a 124 grain plated bullet. Hopefully by posting this in the competition thread I'll...

      Ranges with available chronograph?

      As a reloader, my hobby has recently become more interesting by the introduction of the USPSA power factor. Now, not only am I concerned about accuracy and reliability, but also managed recoil while making power factor. A few folks have been courteous enough to let me use their chronograph...
