      Opinion on 40% silver coins

      Between this and the signature... smart man. :popcorn:

      Need advice on concealed carry and holster

      I know this is an older thread, but I just had to mention how much I love my Crossbread holsters. I have one IWB gun holster, one IWB mag holster, one OWB gun holster for my large frame, and a double mag holster for that. Crossbread lets you try it out for two weeks. If you don't like it, you...

      AR 6.5 Grendel vs. 5.56 vs. 300 AAC Blackout

      I have owned all three of these caliber weapons. All made by STS, so all things (mostly) being equal. 6.5 Grendel is perhaps the best medium range caliber you can fit in an AR-15 platform without going AR-10. In flight, it out performs .308... and is plenty lethal at 800 yards. The better .BC...

      firing the m16...how I have missed it

      I started out in the KY NG before deciding to go Regular Army. That Guard unit had A1s and M-60s. The CO was hoading a few M1911A1s. Shortly there after, the M-4s started coming in crates. Like kids in a free candy store!

      buying an ar-15

      I'm gonna be frank: Yes you should buy one.. and you should buy a quality one to last. The 2nd Amendment is not in the Constitution for hunting or home-defense alone. It is there to stop a tyrannical government from doing whatever they please... like England did (tried to do) to the...

      7.62 in a .308 rifle?

      Shooting 7.62x51 NATO through a barrel/chamber rated .308 WIN depends on three things: 1)How sturdy is your barrel, chamber, bolt 2) How tight the tolerances are on your .308 WIN chamber 3) How much risk are you willing to take. I've had to ask this question before on a REM 700, and I...

      New Manufacture M1 Carbines?

      I had an Auto Ordinance M-1 Carbine in .30 Carbine. Very fun, terribly inaccurate. It's internal, external, and terminal ballistics is not that impressive. I'd rather "pack around" a 16" AR w/ collapsible stock in 55g 5.56mm or .223 REM over M-1 Carbine... assuming you are going for...

      STS SASS in 6.5 Grendel Review

      Look man, neither STS nor I have anything to prove to you. People that know them know what I am talking about. This review is not about you, or what you think. You apparently have a hard-on for me and/or this rifle. If you are so darn concerned about it, I'm sure STS will let you come down and...

      STS SASS in 6.5 Grendel Review

      IndyGunWorks, You are not the first one to bring this up, however you are the first one to do it semi-respectably... and I appreciate that. I thought I made it clear in the article, but perhaps not. It is standard procedure to zero in and 25 yards then re-zero at a further range. This saves...

      STS SASS in 6.5 Grendel Review

      I think you would be very pleased. Seeing how you get a tactical rifle, hunting rifle, and home defense all-in-one rifle... it more easily justifys spending the money. (ok, well not in Indiana hunting rifle) When you compare what you get for the money verses commerical "tactical rifles", you get...

      STS SASS in 6.5 Grendel Review

      I chose it for multiple applications. Recreational tactical shooting and home defense. I do not have plans to compete, and certainly no bench rest shooting. Not a fan. Obviously, the 20.5" barrel has it's limitations in close-quarters. STS also makes a "16 inch" variant. That will likely be my...

      Guns you’ve owned, that you’d never buy again (and why?)

      Any S&W auto. Hate the trigger pull/jerk. I sold my S&W M&P Spec-Ops two months after buying it new. Then proceeded to buy the new M9A1. No regrets. The only S&W I like/use is the Bodyguard .380 ... no issues what so ever.
