    Recommend a good smoker?

    I want a good smoker that I can SET IT AND FORGET IT. I like the idea of the indirect heat smokers with the firebox off to the side, but you guys tell me, what are the best smokers for the money. I am not looking to spend a fortune. I have an electric Little Chief but you have to tend it...

    Can I Zero Ballistic Plex at 200 yards 4 .308?

    Looking at buying a Burris 3x9x40 Ballistic Plex (or a Leupold LR) to put on my .308. I have read that they calibrated the scope to zero .308's in at 100 yards and then have Bullet Drop marks out to 500 yards. The scope is calibrated for magnum calibers from 200 to 600 yards. My question is...

    Best sling for my AR?

    Looking for a good sling for my AR-10. I will carry it far this hunting season and want something comfy that holds it at the ready. I was thinking THREE POINT SLING but I have not used one before. The AR-10 is somewhat heavy. A single point sling will NOT work for me.

    Good .308 factory load for Elk?

    Have a DPMS AP4 .308. I want a good round for Elk hunting. Most shots are close range (under 80 yards) but occassionally I could be shooting up to 350 yards +. Thus, I thought something around 165 grain would be a good compromise. I want a good Elk round that will have essentially the same...

    What is wrong with the FN FNAR .308?

    I have long wanted a .308 semi-auto that could serve as a SHTF rifle and a hunting rifle. I have considered the DPMS AP4, but in most circles, the FN FNAR is touted a little more. The FNAR is under 8 pounds - great for hunting. It has FN quality. It is piston driven. So, what are the...

    Flying to TX. What to take for defense?

    I have a CCW that is valid in TX, but I don't think i want to hassle with checking the firearm at the airport, etc. I have never done that before. Maybe you can talk me into it. I'm a little concerned that TSA employees must be able to open my gun box. I hear they have a bad reputation for...

    Any Alternatives to Maxpedition EDC bags?

    I want an EDC bag that is Attache or Messenger style. The Maxpeditions are way too much $$. I would like it to be less TACTICAL looking if possible. Black would be nice but not a must. I want to carry it to work but I wear a tie to work. Thus, I didn't want it to stand out like a sore...

    Value of a Winchester 94 Pre-safety?

    I have two Winchester 94's that I am thinking of selling. One is a Pre-Cross Bolt Safety (not a pre-64). It is in 95% condition. Really is like new. I know I can get $400 out of my 94 WITH the safety in similar condition. Will the pre-safety 94 fetch a higher dollar? If so, how much more?
