Happened to pick up a LAW sentinel 6.5CM 20” barrel. Anyone have any experience with them. Just wondering if is a good shooter or a pretty paperweight. What can I realistically expect from it?

After some wait my Arken ep4 6-24x50 ffp finally arrived. I was curious as to whether a $599 scope could live up to the hype. The answer is absolutely! The scope feels very solid and well made. The view through the eyepiece was exceptionally clear and crisp. Colors were vibrant. Unlike...

The Va 2A sanctuary movement is one of the most interesting and successful to pop up in a while. For the most part it has been a totally grassroots movement,and the turnout at meetings has overflowed the buildings in which they were held. In about 5 weeks the number of localities includes 75...

I posted about this in another thread, but thought it important enough to have its own thread. We are currently working to establish the county I am living in as a second amendment sanctuary county. I know it has only been a few days, but for certain we have 6 of 7 county supervisors on board...

I am being offered to trade my Daewoo K2 for a Black Rain Ordnance AR. I consider the Daewoo to be a better system than the AR, but getting parts can be a headache. It is also increasing in value due to its relative scarcity. What would you do? Anyone with experience with a BRO AR? I'd like...

Anyone tried necking the 300WSM down to 6.5? Curious about how it would perform.

Finally had the opportunity to see just what the LRP can do. I only had the time to make a few shots. 6"x8" steel at 350 was just too easy. First and only 5 shot group fired at 100 was 1/2". I was not expecting that as I had simply loaded ammo that shot well in a friend's RPR. This thing...

My M-85 AK pistol will not extract. I end up with a round jammed under the rim of the unextracted case every time. Installed new extractor and spring to no avail. I'm sure the thing is way overgassed. I'm thinking it is a timing issue. Extractor is trying to pull out an expanded case and...

I bought a Savage 12 LRP 6.5 CM last December about the 17th. The rifle didn't shoot well and the rifle was sent back to Savage by the dealer around the 15th of Jan.. I have been waiting patiently since then. They put a new barrel on it and it took them over 20 days to test fire it, to find...

I bought a Savage 12 LRP about two months ago and after the initial trial noted a huge amount of copper fouling in the barrel. Much work with many products failed to remove it. Looking in the barrel I noted rather severe machining marks on both the lands and grooves of the bore. Took it to a...

Through certain circumstances I ended up with an IO AKM247T this past week. For those of you out there I thought I'd go ahead and give an initial report of the weapon. I had scheduled a light training session yesterday so I thought I'd go ahead and run the AK through its paces. I know most...

I'm having Jeff Walker put together a new 6.5 Creedmore rifle for me using a Savage action I already own. I will be using a Criterion prefit barrel as he suggested. I have two questions for the brain trust who have experience with the Creedmore. What contour and twist should I choose? I have...

Got some trigger time behind some new rifles today; Tavor 95 and the Galil Ace. I'll say up front, I'm not a big fan of bullpup rifles. Did a side by side with the standard Tavor and the 95. The triggers were not stellar on either one. The recoil impulse on the 95 was a little bit stouter...

I have been looking at different mounts to scope my M1A and was wondering how many had experience with the Bassett mount. They claim it will not loosen up and will hold less than 1 MOA when removed and remounted. I also want something that will allow the use of the iron sights. That mount...

I would like some clarification here. Maybe someone can help me out. Candidate Clinton says she has no desire to separate me from my firearms and she espouses a system such as was enacted in Australia. From what I understand you can't own any semi-autos in Australia and you're lucky to get by...

One of my best friend's sons is on his second deployment in the 'stan. Got a request from him today and you know what he asked for? A gun cleaning kit. Seems they are having to use baby wipes and Q-tips to clean their weapons. Sorry state of affairs when the army doesn't provide the basics...

Looking to enhance reliability in my 14.5 AR and am considering either the Sprinco, or the Tubbs flat wound spring. Any of you use either of those and what were the results? I'm running a standard Carbine buffer now.

There's been a lot of negs concerning EOTech sights for a while now, but I bought one back in 2007 and it served me well. Last year the reticle started to fade in the left side. I opted, rather than ask for a refund of money to have it serviced. Mine is an NV capable 552.A65. It took about 2...

Does anyone know the max chamber pressure for AR-10 type rifles? Trying to design a good load for my CMMG Mk3 CBR.

I have been given the opportunity to trade my Zastava M-85 for a practically NIB Para Executive Carry and 6 mags. I am torn. I put a lot of work into the M-85 setting it up just the way I wanted, and getting it to run perfectly. The Para is so slick it is amazing, night sights,micarta grips...
