My experience with my DSA SA58 and DSA for those thinking about getting one: I purchased a new DSA SA58C16. Overall, nice rifle. One problem, the bolt hold-open did not work. It would not hold-open on the last round and would only catch when cycled very gently by hand (was not the mag, I tried...

The header kinda says it all. I have a Springfield loaded champion 1911 with night sights and a S&W 1911 with standard novak sights. I was wondering if the sights could be swapped? Anyone know if the cuts/dovetails are the same?

I have a 5.56, 6.8spc, and 308 and am trying to figure out point of aim (bullet trajectory) for the different distances (in yards) and the ideal distance to zero for each rifle. I need some help! The 5.56 is zeroed at 50 yards, which, I somewhat understand the bullet rise and drop for. The...

I am considering getting a 6.8 upper for my Ruger SR-556 and could use some help. First, who makes reasonably priced uppers that would be compatible with my Ruger lower? Second, I've heard that there are some type of spec II 6.8 ammo requirements and certain barrel twists that are needed...

I just picked up the new HK416D dedicated 22 long rifle-this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2D0scB_NpE4 and wanted to post my initial thoughts for those of you interested in it. The rifle is an H&K licensed reproduction made by Walther (in Germany) and is being imported/serviced by...

I am looking at selling my Eotech 517 in favor of a trijicon reflex sight for my Ruger SR-556 but have no clue which one is right for it. There are some on Ebay that that advertise some as specific for the SR556 but say that they have the weaver mount. Is a weaver mount correct for my rifle...

Well, I finally took the plunge and went for my holy grail of rifles, the Sprinfield M1A Scout/Squad rifle:D Now I just need to sell off a pistol and another rifle to pay for it:o

I recently happened across this: http://www.gtdist.com/ProductDetail.aspx?PartNumber=MAGPUL-MAG-243-B The product description does not include Springfield M1A's but being as I am not familiar with the weapons listed, I was wondering if any are similar enough to the M1A that I could hope that...

I am looking at the Crossbreed holsters and was wondering which one would be best for a Kahr PM45, the minituck or the supertuck? Anybody know?

I am starting a new thread as a follow up to this one: http://thefiringline.com/forums/showthread.php?t=414928 Long story short, this is my second faulty Kahr pistol, a PM45. I purchased it new about two weeks ago to find that the breach face did not clear the rim of the rounds in the mag...

I have an Arsenal SGL-21, (purchased new) and from what I've gathered via google searches the stock trigger is not a Tapco. I am not very thrilled with the current trigger pull. It is very clunky, (for lack of a better description) and will stick on reset if eased off too gently. My question...

The header says it all. I need to know which trigger group (Tapco G2) is needed for the Saiga 308??? What is the difference????:confused:

Looking for some feedback on this rifle. The SA M1A has been on my want list for some time but (to me) costs a fortune and will likely remain on the backburner indefinately so, I happened across the Saiga (which is around 1/3 the price) with comparable mag capacities. Anyway, I'm just looking...

I have heard many of you praise Kahr's customer service and am scratching my head right now wondering what gives. I bought a new Kahr PM45 last week. This is my second Kahr pistol; the first was a P40. Guess what? When I owned the P40 it would not feed properly. I vaguely remember my experience...

Kahr PM45 range reports 50/50 (Follow-up added 6/28) Well, I took my brand new PM45 out for the first time this weekend and thought that I would report my experience. Day one: I fired approximately 75 rounds. I am aware of the 200 round break-in and was hoping for the best but also...

Quick question. I have an STI Ranger II with the stock-dotless, black sights, (which I can't see very well). The other day I happened across some Novak sights that came off of an old S&W 4566 that I once owned. Would the 4566 sights fit the STI if I wanted to swap them out or do the STI's have a...

I just returned from picking up my new Kahr PM45 and thought that I would post some initial thoughts: First, quality appears to be top notch-I am very impressed. This is the first that I have seen one in person and I hoped that it would be no bigger than my Glock 27. I am pleased to report that...

Quick question: I am probably going to go camping next weekend, (in central Texas) and am trying to figure out which sidearm to carry. I have an assortment of calibers, (revolver, and semi-auto) to choose from but was considering carrying my Glock 27 (with a 357 Sig conversion) because it is...

I am considering the purchase of a kahr PM45 and would like to get some owner feedback please. I was originally leaning towards the CW45 but the smaller size and quality of the PM is a big plus. I have not completely ruled out the CW version so feedback on it and/or a comparison of the two would...

I am looking for an affordable set of handguards to replace the stock ones currently on my Arsenal AK-47. I have decided that I want to put a Magpul AFG on the bottom with a red dot on top. The only thing that I have come across so far, (in my price range) is the UTG quad rail. The UTG looks...
