      Drag Bag.

      So what rifle is in your Drag Bag? Now many Army INFANTRY folks don't put handles on their rifles since they don't carry them like purses. But that actual SHTF Rifle that you shall drag along while crawling through the swamp when shtf to survive, what's in your Drag Bag?

      Pack out weight

      Is it true that 100 rounds of 7.62 x 51 mm is actually equal in weight to 210 rounds of 5.56 x 45 mm ? Are they equal in kias?

      M80 Surplus Ammunition.

      I can't seem to get LC M80 to group less than 2 inches at 100 yards with any of my rifles that have a 20 inch or less barrel. Does anyone have a 20 inch or less barrel that is grouping any better at 100 yards with LC M80?

      M-25

      @RHINOSWO So many AR platform folks feel that the M-14 and it variants are inferior platforms. Yet in 7.62 x 51 mm only the M-14NM/ M-21/ M-25 have filled the role as designated Sniper Systems in Semiautomatic form. The ill fated M110 and the SEI Crazy Horse have both been superceded in the DM...

      Basic Seamanship.

      So how many of the G-kids can point out Polaris or even Orion's belt? What about "Red right returning"? Yes I'm assuming a basic knowledge of Seamanship to pass such information. But those without it are free to question, and so it may be passed. Yet the bottom line remains, how many of the...

      Organizations

      Does anyone still belong to either the NRA or CMP that didn't purchase a life membership? Why?

      Ball Powders and excessive throat erosion.

      I understand that ball powders measure well on progressive setups, but Hummer has nothing good to say about their effects on rapid barrel throat erosion. What have y'all heard or experienced when using ball powders?

      OMG CHALLENGE

      GMA just floored me when she told me "Challenge Accepted" isn't something she ever expected to need me to say in my lifetime. It was just a forgone conclusion and never needed to be said. But of all the Challenges tossed my way, from intellectual on a chess board to physical in water or on...

      Reality vs mag capacity.

      So you are facing certain death inside a building. But your armed with your 100 round mag sidearm. You just won? So let's talk real Close Quarter Battle (CQB) What is the biggest room in your house? Got a 20 x 20 Great room? Wait a minute, isn't 15 yards 45 feet? Who has a 45 x 45 foot Great...

      590A1 & OKC 3S Bayonet?

      I have a Blackwater 590A1 that accepts the OKC M9 Bayonet. But I'd like to replace the OKC M9 with the Carbon Steel OKC 3S. Has anyone mounted or attempted to mount the OKC 3S on the Standard 590A1 bayonet mount? I read conflicting reports when searching the net. Love some input from folks round...

      .45 ACP: 1911- G21 or both?

      .45 ACP fans, do you own just 1911's? Just Glock .45 ACP variations? Just some other ..45 ACP's? Or a combination of the above? What about those Old wheelguns with halfmoon clips?

      Round 2 Scout Rifle

      So round 1 of the Scout Rifle (Ruger Bolt Action Scout Rifle) was exceptionally lightweight, CRF with detachable mags, and has shims for LOP. Unfortunately the 16 inch 1:10 SS Barrel could only manage 2 MOA @ the 100 yard KD Range with Milsurplus ammo. Unfortunately I underestimated the Pew-pew...

      Parts are hard to get and $$$$

      Guess now is a bad time to get a sling from Turner Saddlery. No orders until May. Even on sale Sadlak Industries M1A sling swivel stud ends up costing over 50$ and that's not even installed. My goodness has the price of MA1 customizing gone up, not to mention it seems to take longer than ever to...

      M1A Scout Squad or SOCOM 16?

      Pondering M80, M852, or M118LR use? Since the added precision of NM iron sights is no longer a benefit for these Old Eyes, perhaps the Tritium CQB iron sights on the SOCOM 16 would be of greater benefit. Either way the primary day scope is going to be the Burris Scout Scope with QD Warne rings...

      Only 1 Black Rifles?

      Is it unusual to only have one (AR) Black Rifle? I mean it might not be unusual if you only own one rifle, but that might be even more unusual nowadays.

      After Dinner indiscretions.

      2100 and the Carrs Water Crackers, Summer Sausage Roll, and Brick Monterey Jack Cheese have gone beyond temptation. Since I was once again in Bad Habit territory, guess washing it down with a little Scotch while watching Curse of Oak Island on the boob tube wouldn't increase the indiscretions...

      M1A Cleaning procedure?

      What procedure and what cleaning system do you use on your M1A variant? (I.e. down the muzzle cleaning rod, pull through from the chamber with an OTIS system, Other)

      Bad habits section?

      Just wondering if anyone else would like to have a BAD HABITS section added to the forums? A place that we could converse about tobacco, alcohol, and other bad habits products that we could also post for sale or trade. Before I make a request of the Management I'd like to find out if such a...

      Still require a Pew-Pew .308 Win.

      Just what Pew-Pew.308 Win do I need? Believe me when I state I have the skill, but what Pew-Pew do I need? Awaiting your response?

      Miscast, but better utilized.

      Looks like I finally found the correct Timber Hunter Rifle. A long time ago on tundras far, far away a Remington Model Seven carbine in .308 Win was my hunting companion. But it never was Controlled Round Feed (CRF) like the Winchester Model 70. So the 16 inch Barreled .308 Win chambered Ruger...
