Re: What is your SHTF Pistol/Long Gun Combo?

Looking for Rifle Scopes...

Hey everybody, I recently purchased a SCAR 17s. Don't get me wrong, I really dig the iron sights on it but I feel like I need a scope and I'm not too familiar with the rifle scope market. Ideally I would want an ACOG but $1200+ is too much imo. SO, what do you guys suggest? It needs to be sturdy eno...

Fiber Optic Sights

I've been looking everywhere for them, online and in stores and I've had no luck. I've found some online but all were out of stock. Any suggestions? or should I just keep looking hoping someone gets them in stock?

Re: Which gun is on its way to your ffl right now?

I have an Armalite 15A4CB with a sightmark reflex sight waiting for me. Hopefully they'll have power tomorrow so I can pick that bad boy up! This will complete my "assault package," FsN/M15 5.56 combo :D

FMJs??

So I found some ammo at a range I usually don't go to and are ~$5 cheaper than FN's ammo, but they are FMJs. I guess I'm posting because I'm concerned about over penetration if do need to defend myself. Should I be concerned??

So I've been trying to shoot long range (15+ yards) but can never get consistent groupings, I can usually hit the target but they're scattered all over. Does anybody here have experience and wouldn't mind sharing some tips?? You'll make me a very grateful Woozy :D

I have been looking at that holster for quite some time and looks perfect.
How do you mold your own? I was interested in this not for attachments but for another shell for a different gun.
