Falcon66

Unfortunately most of us who go into actual combat don't have the luxury of choice. Fortunately the M4 performs a thousand times better than some would like you to think. Yea, the ratty old M16's in Basic don't work worth a shit half the time, same as the worn out M16's issued to support units, but I have seen very very few malfs from a properly maintained M4 after spending days and thousands of live rounds down range at 11B school. One majorly overlooked feature on many AR's is the chrome lined chamber and bore, AND chrome lined bolt. If it doesn't have those features, save your money and

I wonder if he cleaned and oiled that Bushy before running it. Sounds like a dry weapon or possibly a shitty magazine. Either the bolt wasn't coming back far enough to pick up the next round, or he was using a beat up old magazine, but I'm betting it was a dry weapon. If you dont clean and oil the buffer tube and bolt before using the first time, that is exactly what will happen. As to comparing the two, you will never ever ever get the accuracy of an AR from a Saiga. However, the Saiga has it all over the AR in reliability. Now, if you keep your AR clean, it won't let you down, and if needed

Well, that just completely invalidated the poll.

The NRA may not be our best advocate in this instance. They have repeatedly since their inception, and more importantly recently publically stated they support "reasonable gun control." One board member went so far as to publically state in an interview that no citizen should have more than 5 rounds in a magazine. I know saying this may seem akin to blasphemy, but it is in fact the truth and you should investigate before you crucify me. The NRA is beginning to distance themselves from those remarks, and after the Joaquin anti AW remarks there was a very noticeable and massive increase in E

Apparently the NRA is filing suit in Chicago, San Francisco and other cities immediatly.

The previous post mentioned a ghost ring using a washer. Can anyone elaborate on where this would be mounted? I've done this on an SKS by epoxying a washer to the rear leaf.

what is the opinion of trijicon for operators over there? reflex and ACOG? They are the best.

Thought you guys might like to know, the Eotech has a bad rep for losing zero "over there" among mil and contractors, and also losing power at the wrong time.

I have a RCE (Richard Corbin Enterprises) Walnut Hill swaging press and I use it for custom .338 and .458 bullets. Swaging is for old farts or guys who want something that you just can't buy, it does not save money like reloading. Case in point, one set of basic swaging dies costs $600. Thats over twice the cost of the press. It is also a 4-6 step process depending on the bullet design and whether or not you are extruding your jackets from copper tubing, or buying ready made jackets. The .22 casing bullets are limited to about 60gr, and according to Richard Corbin and his brother, the othe

I would say google Atlas missile sight for sale. Seriously.

Thanks for the welcome Dave. I'm actually an EE major with a mechanical minor, and I'm currently serving in the Gaurd.

Thats probably ok for that short of a sight radius and the time span. Do you think if you slowed down you could tighten it up? That vertical stringing is generally an indicator of operator, not weapon ( I mean no offence, thats a good thing, because you can correct that). I was thinking the increased radius of the HK sights would really help the Saiga as long as they retain zero being mounted on the top cover like that. I've also found that even something like a small washer epoxied to the rear site to make it a ghost ring makes a remarkeable difference. I had the same problem with zeroing
