"Yeah, he shot mine on one of your favorite rifles" Oh the web of equipment we weave. Your Acog on my old rifle. My Acog now on Sams new rifle. His 1-4 now on my rifle. My T1 on Sams old rifle. We should just have a community armory!!!!!!

Mine was indeed the G. I prefer it to the red as well. Generally speaking the human eye seems to percieve green much brighter than red.

TA11 is my fav Acog. I have no personal experience with this glass but it has recieved a lot of good reviews. http://www.vortexoptics.com/category/razor_hd_gen_II_riflescopes

ps. Whats the intended host?

IIRC you already have a T1? Maybe an Acog and T1 at 1 O'clock might be a consideration. 1k is a tough spot. More than cheap ones cost but less than good ones do. The one consideration that may not be important to you is the illumination. The hallmark of the really expensive 1-4's is aimpoint bright daylight usable illumination.

My #1 question is as usual, whats your budget? Thanks HE, and no I didnt run over my own rifle in case anyones wondering

ANd the way the world seems to work today, he will probably lose his job for abandoning the kids on the bus, even if it was only 10 feet away. :wild:

The scope is good, strong, reliable with decent glass. But unfortunatly no version has a reticle I care for. If they would put an Acog ret with holdovers in it, it would be awesome. On the USO, (let me be clear I do not doubt HE) I have never seen CS from them like that. I would like to think its an absolute anomoly as I know many who have recieved great CS from them. I have run several USO scopes and I have not had a problem with any of them. Do they have the best glass? Not the best but certainly not bad. But the 1 thing about USO scopes, they are tough. I know of two that have been run over by pickup trucks that did not lose function and were only off from zero by less then 1 moa. Out in cyber land are videos of USO scopes hammering nails into wood, thown down rocky hilsides etc etc and put back on rifles and operated.

4k+ is just the chassis system(About $4600). You still need the caliber conversion, about another $1400(non magnum). Add a bipod and some accessories and your at around 6k. Add Kahles level glass and you have a $9k+ package. In the precision rifle game equipment matters. In particuler the glass makes a significant difference. Cheap scopes just dont cut it! But keep in mind that at 300 and under is at the bottom rung of the capabilities of that system.

I did

It puts a cage around the FSB so its really kind of a 9" with hair extensions

One comment I didnt see mentioned. When loading long, its not a bad idea to make sure you can still eject a live round.

my post copied and pasted from the Kali law case thread... "This is why I have come to believe that almost all gun control laws are bad. There are no common sense gun laws because eventually those in power will try and subvert them to their own end."

WHAT DID YOU DO TO HER?!?!?!?!

This is why I have come to believe that almost all gun control laws are bad. There are no common sense gun laws because eventually those in power will try and subvert them to their own end.

I think the logic is an empty is the ultimate hollow point test. I agree that the logic might be flawed especially since an empty is so short. If you want a real test, try and get it to run with ranier SWC's!!!!! They wouldnt even run in my old open class IPSC gun from the 90's and that thing is so loose it could chamber a baby rino!!

This video holds great interest to me. A long time ago I was in a loooooong debate with a few folks of considerable pedigree in the 1911 building world. The debate was about if the slide moves before the bullet exits. I never found a video to support my position that it indeed moves before the bullet exits. This video shows the slide moving before the bullet exits! Its small, but its there and that was my contention

It only took three tries to get it right 1st P30 DA/SA no safety about two years ago 2nd P30s about 6 months ago 3rd P30 lem V1 this week or next (and a HK45CT ) For whatever reason I took to the LEM rather quickly. I shoot it better than any other version P30. I also can transition between my 1911 and the LEM without issue. Not so much between the P30s and the P30 lem.

Its a full custom rifle so I am sure you can have it built however you like. The builder is Mike Rescigno. 310 275-8797

Bought and installed on a 6920, thanks for the heads up!

Just order it already! You know you can shoot .40 as evidenced by the 3.87 with your sig on the plates!

I dont think you can really do this on a drill press as a mill style cut. The chuck cant take lateral loading. But if you were to get a flat endmill and "peck" a line of shallow holes and then clean up the little peaks it will leave with a file, that could work. However, for the cost of the endmil you could probably just pay a machine shop to do it. Just make sure they use a radius edge on the endmill so you dont create a stress riser as it might crack.

Im not a fan of Duracoat. Norells Moly Resin seems more durable and applies a little thinner IMO. Ceracoat is nice looking but it has no inherent lubricity and can chip a little on the easy side.

Is your bushing drop in or gs fit?
