No. I figure it will get hot enough on its own at the right time

A recomendation in that price range and with very good features would be the SWFA SS 3X9. This is the least expensive scope I know of with a proven track record, FFP, MIL/MIL. Another would be the Bushnell Elite 4200 in roughly the same price range. Im not a fan of fixed powers but would take a higher quality fixed over a lower quality variable in some circumstances.

Ive been an exclusive Militec user but...I just ordered a bottle of slip2000 to try.

I think Im more in the 98% function, 2% looks catagory I dont care about pinning the **** outta a SCAR stock, if I move, Ill buy another stock.

"seems like the more expensive the gun the more problems you have?" I dunno, one of the guys I compete with runs an X5. He is in excess of 20,000 rounds.....

dpas, I hear you. But if its a recoil spring issue, the range of ammo in use makes it kinda hard to cover all bases. Use a 10 lb spring and someone whit HOT ammo will be battering the frame. Use a heavier spring and someone using low power loads may not cycle the slide all the way causing issues. Run a race car and a little tailoring is usually in order

Someone always has a faster car!

Not really visualising what the feed ramp has to do to do with slide lock back..... Its either the mags or the slide release or weak ammo/heavy spring.

First off Aimpoint is not American. If your use is only EVER ENTERTAINMENT oriented buy what you like. Be prepared for dissappointment though because its likely. Consider the false economics of battery conumption, wasted ammo chasing a wandering zero, and range trips that are wasted because your $50 RDS went TU. Consider the fact you can leave an Aimpoint on and at the ready for YEARS at a time. Its divable, hard use proven etc etc. Is it worth it to me to have an optic I can trust and depend on even for shooting a local match? Hell yes. It costs me about 100 bucks all in to shoot a match. I dont want that wasted because I cheaped out on an optic. Nor do I want a failure if I ever needed to depend on it for a real life emergency need. I view my firearms as an insurance policy I get to play with. So my corner stone systems must be squared away. Shane <---- Changing my sig line to buy once cry once!!!

AGFL, what made you go ACR over SCAR given your obvious pref for FN's

George, whats yer max price point? What are your requirements? FFP, SFP, Exposed target knobs, BDC, MIL/MIL, MOA/MOA, crosshair, Mil dot??????

Roger that. As they say, cash is king

Jimmy, just noticed I didnt respond to you, sorry. Prefered payment method is MO. Time frame is not fully chrystalised yet. Trying to wait until the boat is mostly full before pulling away from the dock(I was shooting for 20). Going to close it soon. On the delivery front, coating is going to set the delivery date. I will look at coating schedules and see whats on the calender. So DA and Jimmy are both in?

I attended the sportsmans rally last night. Mr Runyan was very open and direct in his support of the second amendmant. Interestingly it was discussed that his opponent is claiming to be but his voting record is in direct conflict with this position. In chatting with him he seemed well aware of current second amendmant ongoings which gave me the sense he is certainly paying attention. For the first time in my life I have placed a political sign on my front lawn, for Runyan. Shane

I have around 50 silver quarters I think

Hey they got a lot of internet Cafe's over there!!!

I dont know if your going to have any takers honestly. For one you need an FFL to manufacture ammo for pay. #2 there is just too much liability to make ammo for another unless you are a comercial venture. You might be better off selling off the once fired brass and applying it to new ammo.... Shane

Agreed.

Hehe yeah George and a stack of 20's every now and then falls out of the sky and lands at my feet LOL. I have NEVER seen one or even hear of one selling for below 7500.

Accepting on their terms puts you in a weak position. Do you think they would even offer if they though they had a leg to stand on? Where does the precedent end? 5K to take the 5th if your on the stand? 20k if you want to write an article? $100 every time you want to go to churche? $1000 to not be a slave? There is a significant difference between an administrative fee and the state profitering on our rights!

George, even a used 82 is still going to be likely in the 8k range. Of the single shot 50's I find the State Arms to be among the best. Followed by the Viper from Blue Grass Armory and then perhapbs the Armalite. I sold my 50 but keep my 338 because I can actually shoot it unrestricted. When all my priority wants are met, I'll get a 50 again just for the sake of having one. But if practicality is going to have any weight in your descision process, the 338 is a far better option.

SN4 1.5X6 with C2 Ret would be the heat on that thing!

Damn I was a hamburger off!

I have typed this several times and erased it. Too much to say and none of it I want to say on a public forum so Ill leave it at, next time in person, ask me about LWRC, the company. From a technical perspective, Im not a fan of Piston AR's to begin with and really would only even try an LMT or MAYBE the HK. At any rate I have seen a NUMBER of seriously f'ed up LWRC rifles. The whole REPR mag thing, another indication into that company's corner cutting habbits. Id only play with a piston AR to play with it. I much prefer rifles designed as piston rifles. In short one can observe that something designed to be run on gas may not fare so well when its hit with a hammer instead. There is a reason the lugs on AK's, XCR's, FAL,s are LARGE!

Look at that, your already set for a single point sling
