Used to go Splatter/Jack Frost in PA (they're closed now) with my nephews a few years back - had TONS of fun! Beware of ladies with weapons - they're aggressive and mean! Guess guns are the equalizer. Range-14 at Ft Dix (http://range-14.com/paint.html) might be an option.

I'm not a hunter and I don't know why, but the notion of going on a pig hunt trip fascinates me. I'm hoping to get 2 or more guys together for a hunt and and am looking for input from the forum. Have you ever been on one - have any recommmendations? I'm thinking a 3-4 day trip (1-2 days round trip travel time and 2 days hunting). From what little I've read these boars can be hunted with knife, pistol, bow, shotgun, or rifle. Dogs tracking is sometimes an option. Pigs range in size from ~100# to more than 350#. Some packages have lodging. Looks like the hunts are guaranteed; there are differing price ranges, and varying drive times. Here are come random links: South Carolina: http://www.hunthogs.com/ Georgia: http://www.hogguide.net/index_files/georgiawildboarhunt.htm Georgia: http://www.blackcreeklodge.com/Boar_hunting/boar_hunting.html Pennsylvania: http://www.tiogaboarhunting.com/home.htm Maybe we could do a pig roast/BBQ for the forum when we get back.So, join the discussion and let's get something set up for early fall (I hate the cold)!

Not sure I understand why I wouldn't want the BUIS on - as I stated, I intend to shoot iron sights better than 99% of the time - they're old school and just way much more fun (for me). Once they're zeroed I intend to Loctite them in place. On the rare occasion that I'm going to use a scope I can always re-zero the scope as needed - that's fun, too. As far as tools go, I don't see that as an issue. I agree with the "natural point of aim" comment. That's why I just ordered the Burris P.E.P.R (http://www.burristactical.com/arpepr.html) from SWFA. Meets all my criteria and was recommended by a forum member - user reviews back it up.

Good question - but, no. My use of the scope would be to zero and then for a hog hunt (if I can get some forum members interested). Other than that, it's going to be iron sights . . . unless Zombies invade. Can't let them get too close.

I had Armalite tune the upper (switched from a 20" to a 16" lightweight/infantry barrel), update the bolt, and put on the Bennie. Planning to go to Range 14 tomorrow and fire it for the 1st time - hoping for nice recoil reduction. Other mods include EFX stock, Slash's heavy tungsten buffer, Troy folding battlesights, and JP fire control group. Didn't care for the JP tensioning pin. As soon as I get the Magpul MOE handguards and Brownells triggerguard on my work will be complete (I hope). This is going to be my only all purpose/working/SHTF long gun. Will post a pic when it's complete.

Nice set-up . . . is that a LaRue mount and a JP/Bennie Cooley compensator? We need a photo area on the forum.

Looking for advice on mounting a Vortex Viper 2-7x32 (1" tube) on a flat-top AR10. Need to clear the rear Troy BUIS (folded height 0.460"). Trying to keep the weight down so rings are preferred over a 1-piece mount, but advice is always appreciated. I think I want an extra-high solution (~1.4").
