Range Instructor Necessities
breid1970 replied to DLT's topic in General Discussion - Any topic is welcome here!!!
I use good targets, a decent vest with plates. Sturdy target frames and tons of foamies, and cheap durable eye protection. We also use a range flag to inform the shooters as well as others that the range is hot. We also use the word Red Light as the key phrase to freeze in place. At one point the term cease fire was used but some folks when they hear the fire part of cease fire just loose they're minds and fire. If you have someone who is trained in CPR/first aid have them be your range safety officer. They don't handle any firearms, they just watch for safety issues. If you can afford i -
So, I run the M10 in 7.62. Now the only complaint I have is that the side optics mount sits a little higher then the traditional mount. I was looking at the RS Regulate 311 mount but that damn thing is 120 bucks. I am a little frugal so I am looking for something that will give me the same lower profile over the dust cover that it does. Anyone have any suggestions?

Anyone have any ideas how that extended magwell is attached to the receiver?

http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2014/03/05/facebook-gun-policy/6074229/ Now I don't use it much, mostly to keep in contact with old military buddies, but as of now I've closed my account and am gently telling my friends to do the same. This is my own personal opinion, and I don't demand my friends follow me lock step, but for me, no thank you.

April 19th 1775. I wonder how the locals felt about those crazy colonists? -

Remember when people of color protest and occupy its considered justified. Case in point the occupation of Minneapolis 4th precinct for weeks. Or the storming of the mall of america last year and again this year. When whites do it, its considered racist. -

Center mass period. When in doubt and if you have the actual skill, go failure to stop. Two center mass and one to the head. Even if they are wearing some sort of body armor on they're head just the shear impact of a round to the head with stagger them. But, if your talking home defense then always no matter what go center mass. If you survive the encounter the very first call should be to your lawyer then 911. -
I have a M10. To me the safety lever seems very very tight. I have seen guys manipulate they're safety with one finger but on mine it takes a concentrated effort to do so. I have watched a few videos but to be frank I'm not fond of bending the lever out to see "if" that solves the problem. What do you folks recommend.

Different and unusual AR Builds

You like the hogue grips? Are the ak hogue hand guards any good? -

I agree, i did get a little worked up. We all see things differently, sometimes that's hard to accept. And I agree....AK>AR...to me at least. -
Galil handguard by tapco.

I dont think they have changed it since you last tried it sadly. I have gone the minimalist route and am presently trying to lighten my M10. Once I ditch the UTG metal quad rail I will dump the tapco stock and swap it out with the Arch Angel. I don't know nearly enough about ATI stocks to even consider them at this point and Fab Def is out of my price range. -

Thats a good looking set of hand guards. How much did they set you back? The Magpul look decent as well. And are pretty affordable. I think they might look pretty good with the Arch Angel Opfor stock. Which I might add is pretty reasonable as well. -

What were people expecting some revelation about either after all the threads here and everywhere else over the years have worn it out? Given the mythic standing of both the AR and the AK it is impossible to separate either from their iconic ammo. Speaking of derailment; Funny thing is people were calling it Nam way back in the mid 60s, usage was pretty damned common both civilian and military. And its common usage is not "The Nam" it is simply "Nam". Im raising the bullshit flag on you here and now. Just because hippie fucks back in the day refereed to it as the nam doesn't make -

I stand by what I stated earlier. I just prefer the AK in all its glory and I don't fault those who prefer the AR. Both have excellent redeeming qualities. The original writer of the article i can't really comment on. -

Something about folks referring to the Vietnam War as the Nam annoys me as much as folks who never served in Afghanistan calling it The Stan. Having served in both Iraq and Afghanistan I don't even refer to it that way. This entire thread seems to be getting derailed. The idea was a conceptual battle between which is better ..The M16 and its variants and the Ak's variants. Both are decent platforms and serve each niche well. -

Romak III- 7.62 x 54 Galil/Golani 5.56, 308 Saiga 7.62x39, 223, 308, 5.45 x 39, 30.06 springfield, 9x53mmR, 5.56 Thats just to name a few. I don't think the AR has the market cornered on calibers. And I didn't even touch on the dragonovs and those variants. My bottom line is this. The AK to me, is superior for my own personal uses. I don't shoot out past 500 but if I did, the Romak III would easily fit the bill. I use mine for protection, target shooting and just because i fucking love them. I don't know the AR guys one bit. I carried the A2 for a decade and a half and it never l -

I lugged around my A2 for 15 years. Its an alright weapon. Now that I am far more familiar with the AK I can say without reservation i would take the AK over the A2 any day of the week. That being said with the correct FMJ 7.62x39 would be my choice of ammo. Not 40 year old surplus ammo. -
