    Geissele rails

    Do you need to mount stuff diagonally? If not, the Mk14 should be fine.

    Polymer 80 "Glock"

    So I've gone and done it. The online instructions very clearly say to NOT drill the holes with a drill press, ONLY with a hand drill. The same instructions say that vigorous pounding is needed to get the trigger pin inserted correctly. I followed both instructions and the trigger pin hole...

    Slings...

    I ran a Viking Tactics sling for many years and still have it. It's okay but it has two different things to either tighten or loosen the sling. The BFG Vickers Combat Applications Sling has one thing that you move one way to tighten, the other way to loosen. Simpler and better. I also...

    To SBR or not

    Isn't saving $200, being able to sell the thing (more) freely if you want to, and dick-punching the NFA some other advantages?

    AR 762x39 Zero

    Would it make a difference that you're shooting 7.62x39 out of an AR instead of an AK, due to the height of the sights or optic over the bore? Most people recommend a 25 yard zero for the 7.62 AK. That's what I use on mine but that's not to say that there isn't a better method to use than that.

    Hammer fired is better than striker fired.

    Your mom prefers the hammer.

    Halp. I think I want a 19x

    I can't imagine greater praise for a defensive tool.

    New Glock

    I look for somewhere to hide when I hear an engineer say this.

    New Glock

    Even as a .mil pistol, why put more plastic on the bottom of the G19's grip? From what I remember, MARSOC, SEALs, and Rangers have all purchased G19s and have been pleased with them. Why couldn't Big Army do the same? Keep in mind that Glock lost the MHS contract because of price. I work...

    New Glock

    Interesting. I'm 6'3"/205(ish) and have larger hands than most people I know. The G19 and pistols with grips of similar length (CZ P10C, S&W M&P 2.0 Compact, CZ P07, etc) have never struck me as being too short in the grip. Indeed, most of the complaints that I've heard about G19 grips over...

    New Glock

    Just curious, how big/tall are you? I ask because in the past 30 years of the G19's existence, virtually all of the people I've heard make this statement have done so in January of 2018 which is rather odd to me.

    New Glock

    I'm so glad I found this thread: I was starting to think I was the only one on the interwebz who actually thinks that the G19X is dumber than dogshit. I think that Glock invented two things this month: the goofiest idea they've come up with since the .45 GAP and people who say that the G19's...

    Chest rig.....

    I adjust the shoulder straps so that the top of the front plate is at the bottom of my neck. Then take a deep breath in so that your chest is fully expanded and then snug the cummerbund down and secure it in position. This will allow you to breathe deeply while still having the armor snug...

    Chest rig.....

    That I'd change? Not really but there are some very small gripes that I probably ought to throw out here. First, the side-straps were something that I thought could be a good replacement for the cummerbund and that would make the armor faster to don than a cummerbund setup. In reality, the...

    Chest rig.....

    I've had one for a few years now. It's only been used for a bit of training and practice but I've found it to be well-suited to those things.

    5 Gun Collection

    1) Glock 26. My EDC, the gun I can take anywhere. 2) AR15. Good rifle for close up but can be stretched out to a quarter-mile with ease, IME. Also kind of a twofer with my .22LR conversion kit. 3) .308 AR. Good rifle for long range shooting and big game hunting. 4) AKM. Cheap to shoot, low...

    Springfield Armory Releases Video Statement

    I think that if I hired a guy to do political lobbying then I would tell him where my head was at when it came to compromises like this. I might tell the guy "Sell everyone else's ass down the river if it helps us out" or I might tell him "If they mean to have war, let it begin here" but...
