Re: Troy Battlemags @ Western Sport $5.99

As to the controversy of who Troy hires, who some apparently and heartily disapprove of, smacks of leftist politics. According to them, if a company hires new people they have to meet the scathing writers personal standards or he/they make the new hire lives miserable by publicly criticizing them a...

Re: What type of Ammo do you load in your Home Defense AR

Home defense AR? Is there a difference between that and any other AR? Is this for defending your home from outside threats trying to get in or inside threats? I personally think it's too much gun for inside defense unless you don't have anything else. At close quarters combat I don't think it matte...

Re: Optics

I have a question, I am looking for an optic for my AR. I am looking at either the Aimpoint Pro or the Primary Arms 3x or 5x prism optic. I would like thoughts on each of these. The primary purpose for my AR is for home defense and maybe even some hunting, like hogs or game like that. I don't want ...

Re: Llano Crawfish Festival Illegally Posted 30.06

Just the 30.06 and no 30.07 sign? If not, I guess you could have tucked your shirt in or took your cover garment off and displayed your blaster. As much as I dislike open carry, it seems to me that they just wanted to see all the pretty BBQ/Crawfish Boil guns people were wearing. :evil2: Of course t...

Re: Oddest AR Jam I've ever seen

You notice if any cases had a blown primer? Those things can get down in your gun and cause issues and then slip out without you ever finding them. I have heard of them getting into the trigger assembly and causing all types of issues. Maybe one got stuck in the cam pin keeping it from moving. It mi...

Re: Does anybody make a holster that doubles as concealed and open carry?

I bought a Beretta Nano over the weekend and now I am looking at holsters. Does anybody make a holster that can be worn IWB concealed and on a belt for open carry? Galco Double Time. I don't see it made for the Nano though. I had one for a Glock 19 and it worked ok but I never open carry. I returne...

Re: 300 Bllack-Out Feed Back Requested Please

Weg, how dirty is "dirty"? I have noticed that when shooting my 5.56 upper suppressed, even with the gas-piston system, if I remove the magazine while it still has rounds in it, the metal of the remaining cartridges is dull and obviously dirty with something, although it is more like a du...

Re: Baby snakes

If you are anywhere near water the most common snake in your area is likely the diamond back water snake. They do resemble water moccasins but are harmless. I grew up in rural Arkansas and in grades 7-12 every summer I worked on a farm that raised bait fish (minnows) to be sold for fishing. Needles...

I think that got reversed by a Federal Judge since its almost impossible to find 7 round mags.

Re: 10 round mags???

I am pretty sure the guns are the same and they just come with different mags. I would just buy the one that comes with 15 round mags. You could always just buy a couple 10 round mags if you think you need them. However, I don't think any state that has a 10 round limit is going to allow you to have...

Re: Butchering

Look at the Havalon knives. They are surgically sharp with low cost replaceable blades. :iagree: My father whipped one of those out last year after I harvested a small doe. Wow that thing was sharp! Replacing the blade is a super easy way to ensure you always have a sharp edge. Accidents happen wit...

Re: Tacical Carbine Class recommendations

James Yeager is very controversial. Look him up on Youtube. Then decide if want him to train you. Most of the controversy is because of the title of videos he has made and his attitude. I have trained with Tactical Response two different times at Bastrop, TX. The classes were well worth the money. ...

Re: One in the chamber?

Those who carry without a round in the chamber are typically inexperienced and lack overall gun handling time. I hate to admit it, but you are correct. When I first started carrying I was afraid to have one in the chamber due to the lack of training. But as I learned more about cc and trained more ...

Re: Anti-Gun Senator Shoots Intruder

Problem with the story is that he really isn't very anti-gun. His NRA-PVF ratings before the shooting were: • 1998 - B • 2000 - B+ • 2002 - B+ • 2004 - A • 2006 - A •2008 - A Read more at http://www.snopes.com/politics/guns/soles.asp#28hK64FAgRvqK24r.99" onclick="window.open(this.href);ret...
