Both optics were received in separate trades but I don't have a use for them. Each looks to have been about $400 to $450 when new. Neither scope looks like it's been mounted in rings and they've both been sitting in my safe since I got them 1) Nilon Monarch 3-12x with BDC reticle (p/n 8420) and flip...

But if it is an existing rifle and you cut the barrel would you not then have a SBR for the time it takes to weld the can on? Short window sure but, just a thought. If you hold off on cutting/threading the barrel until the suppressor is in hand and do everything at once, you would likely be fine. I...

I have been starting to get interested in getting a 300 Blackout (gun), and am aware that you can shoot heavy bullets subsonic or light bullets supersonic. For the most part, I will be interested in subsonic. Already got an Armalite AR-10. I'm going to ask a few specific questions that I would like...

NFATracker lists the probability of me getting my tax stamps this month is 33% and by the end of May it's 87%. I have delivery confirmation and cashed checks. Does anyone think I need to call them, or should I wait another month and see what happens? If you sent it in more than 5 months ago, then c...

I usually buy online. My usual retailers are Bravo Company, Rainier Arms, Brownells and a few others. With respect to building an upper, there's no excuse to cheap out when there's good low cost options on the market right now. Example: BCM blem upper (complete): $75 PSA Premium BCG: $100 Ballistic ...

I would take one of the Colt OEM guns with some Magpul furniture any day of the week.

Sent my Form in late last month. Still waiting for my check to be cashed....

I like 2-stage triggers, myself. I'm currently running Geissele triggers on 3 of my guns (2 of the SD-C's and an SD-E on a more precision-oriented rifle) and a KAC 2-stage in another. If you're going that route and sticking pprimarily with bench shooting, I would take a look at either the SSA-E or S...

This scope is new in the box (I only listed it as used since I opened the box). Leupold VX-III 4-14X40MM Scope in matte finish; with the Boone & Crockett reticle. This is a great scope - perfect for hunting. It's lightweight and compact with bright, crisp glass but I ended up selling the rifle I...

They use fired brass in their RE-manufacturing process. It is not new brass. Small dents will not adversely affect performance. Where did you get your information for that statement? American Eagle, in a factory box, is factory new brass - not re-manufactured. +1 Federal does not "RE-manufactu...

Will probably put in my order for my first can within the next couple of weeks. I had already had some cash saved up but had to dip into that pool to cover a couple of other expenses and need to build the fun fund back up through the sale of some unneeded parts. As funds become available, I'll pick ...

Seems like that makes rimfire production MORE automated. One less step.

See the edit on my response.

Help me understand what about .22 production is manual that is automated on centerfire? Centerfire brass is primed and loaded on separate machines. There would be manual movement and transfer of bins from the priming equipment to the loader. Not needed on a rimfire line. However, a rimfire line wou...

This is ********, pure and simple. Manufacturing a .22 long round is fairly simplistic compared to lets say a Tesla Model 3 electric car. When exactly does it make sense for a manufacturer to invest in increasing rim fire production capacity in your wonderful view of things? 50 years from now? If T...

For the sake of argument, let's look at the numbers. If we assume that Winchester and Remington are producing at the same rate as Federal, that's around 12 million rounds shipped per day. If we assume that CCI is slightly lower (~3 million), then that's 15 million rounds per day. Let's say that all...
