I'm with Phaedrus/69, the Primary Weapons Systems UXR is very compelling.

I've been using the GX CS3 compressor (amazon carries it). I got this summer of 2020 and use it a lot. Not sure what volume, I just fill the tube that connected to the rifle, one an Avenger and a Marauder FT, 4350 psi and 3000 psi respectively. I have heard that this compressor is not good...

Here's a video of the RCBS Trim Pro with the three way cutter head (trim, chamfer, deburr in one step). Also shown is a RCBS primer pocket swager. The brass in the video have previously been run through the swager. Un-swaged brass requires more force than is shown. I run all brass through...

I load a lot of .223, with a couple different recipes. But I assume that every round could be needed for defensive purposes. Therefore, I have a maximum length for base to datum that will work in all my rifles, hoping that this will provide the best chance that every round will chamber...

I still carry a LC9s with a Crimson Trace Laserguard attached. I like it and I haven't found a convincing reason to replace it.

I have one of the early models and put a Boyd's stock on it. I didn't mind the plastic stock but the bluing is so nice that I thought it deserved a nicer stock. It did develop ejection problems. It will accumulate fouling and schmutz under the extractor over time. Enough that the extractor...

iSnipe is worth a look, but I have not seen an update in a long time, but it works.

Thanks for posting, appreciate that info.

Check to see if it has a fill port. If it does you may be able to simply pump it back up. Hatsan uses a specific fill plug but it is the same as is in their PCP rifles. I have a Hatsan break barrel (135 QE I think) laying around but I can't find it right now. Going by memory the port is a...

I recently sent an air rifle in for repair. The repair facility said that FedEx was the best option and I had no trouble with them and I told them it was an air rifle. The guy didn't react to that at all. Also, for UPS or USPS, always use https://www.pirateship.com/ but that does mean you're...

This really is a big deal, as said, the Stylebook is the standard that most news and PR writing conforms to. Now, do most writers know or care? Hard to say, but probably not as much as you may think. Editors and owners are likely different story altogether. Regardless, this kind of...

I don't know if these questionnaires predated Obamacare, but I know that my first experience with one was during the height of Obamacare. My doctor was not happy about it and he filled out most of it without my input, other than the question about firearms and he said, "that's none of the their...

Something that could be relevant to the discussion, CCW means Carrying a Concealed Weapon, last I knew to law enforcement that's a felony. What you may have is a CPL, or Concealed Pistol License, which is a get out of jail free card. If you tell a cop that you have a CCW, the immediate outcome...

I shoot a lot of Rimfire Challenge and I settled on the Truglo red/green optics. I love them because acquisition is really fast, the dots are very bright and the sight is large. Good price too. I've been running them for two or three years now without failure except battery replacement...

Yes, tape on the rail is a great idea - thanks for posting that.
