I am interested in a similar model, the one with the carbon fiber threaded barrel. It looks like it would be great for adding a suppressor and a red dot. For me it’s between this model or the newest...
Good deals can be found on used ones. I've owned two, shot them a fair amount, and didn't lose any money when I sold them.
Sell them I did though. As nice as they were, I didn't shoot them that...
I ran 4-5k through one in the last year, gen 4 Roland. Mine cycled everything I tried: 115 WWB, 124 Nato WWB, 115 Federal and Winchester aluminum cased stuff, and probably 3-4k of that was my 147 gr...
I was wondering about that since he wasn’t using the Eidolon anymore. Now he says Tenicor is the best ever. Didn’t he help design the Eidolon?
I fingered one of the new Dan Wesson Vigils at a shop in KC this weekend and it was amazing. It was a .45, but the 9mm weighs about the same, which is crazy light. I’m really digging that aluminum...
Thank you, sir, for writing this. Solid gold there. I've read the AMU book before and been shooting a lot lately, but I never connected the dots on this. Didn't realize how much going back and forth...
Awesome! Yeah, the ANG always has some great shooters. You can't beat getting paid to shoot! Sorry to detail the thread. I'll shut up now.
On some matches you have to shoot through a rectangular port in the middle of the board or on the ground. Both require you to cant the rifle to see your sights. Some you shoot off the side or off the...
A ton of info on the impact shift that makes me seem less crazy:

Double post and I can’t get rid off the extra attachments.
Ok, that does sound like a bit much. I had to look into this a bit more since I was remembering it as more. I dug up target pics from either Nationals this year or the practice before Nationals. We...
Yeah, just as you describe and making a sort of claw to push the mag, which is on the ground, back into your shoulder is how we shoot prone. But again, we are using crappy issue M16A4s with non free...
Pretty sure they do, not sure on the specifics though. If you zeroed in the slung up prone position, and only shot from that position, you could be somewhat consistent. They might only be shooting...
You could, but without it being free float, you are adding the same pressure. They are combat matches and with all the movement and positional work, you couldn't have the same amount of pressure from...
Awesome. Thanks.
Barricades are like a VTAC board that is cut in half so it isn’t as tall. So either shooting over the top or shooting through the ports you want the gun as far forward as possible. Just pretty much...
Thanks for the suggestions, I’ll check them out.
Who is the current go to for milling slides for a RDS?
Magwell hold still has a place for those stuck using crappy .mil guns that aren't free floated. Pressure on the handguard, whether using a forearm hold or pressure from a barricade, translates to...
OAL was 1.17" and this was keeping them from dropping in the 19X barrel. I adjusted to 1.10-1.12" and they seem to be running fine in the 19X. I'll load and test more this week.
147 grain round nose Blue Bullets. They've worked great and I've shot at least 20k of them since last year. This last batch did seem like the coating was different though, more shiny. I'll have to...
I know, talk about the princess and the pea, right?
I shoot a fair amount and have been buying 147 grain blue bullets in bulk. I still have another 5k of them left. I mainly shoot a stock M9 to...
I picked up a 19X recently. It's been very accurate for me. Part of that is probably the front sight being wider than what I normally use. Averaging high 90s on a B8 at 25 yards and high 290s on the...
I didn't make it to 1k rounds by the 4th and my focus returned to the M9 sooner than I had planned. I ended up putting 700-800 rounds through it before my buddy got it. Zero problems or malfunctions...
