Any suggestions for a lockable rifle cabinet/safe for the 2 SCR's with scopes ? I'd prefer a combinations lock(or even biometric to avoid key lock). Not really looking for a heavy duty safe; just something to keep kids out of that we could keep in the bedroom or walk-in closet.Thanks for any...

Here is my 2nd SCR with a Strikefire II Red Dot Scope and VMX-3T 3 X magnifier. I'm not sure if I'll be able to make it to the range this week or not; but when I do I'll let you know how I make out. The bolt catch for this one should be arriving today ;as you can see it doesn't have...

I forgot to mention that the people here are also quite humorous as well as helpful; I almost spit out my tea when I read that . Best regards, Tom

Funny you should say that.Since I was worried about the getting at the charger handle because of the scope(before I knew it wasn't going to be a big issue because of the bolt catch), I ordered a red dot scope for my second SCR .I'll probably mount it over the weekend. Tom

Not exactly sure what picture you want posted. If these don't cover it give me more specifics and I'll shoot a few more shots: Best regards, Tom

Thank you. I found that since I had added the accessory bolt catch to this rifle, its not as big a problem as I thought it was going to be. The bolt catch holds the chamber open after the last round so I don't have to constantly reach the charging handle as I thought I would have to. Best...

Answered my own question, new question and Update: Well I made it out to my local indoor range yesterday( Welcome to Wolcott Guns Inc. ). Its a 25 and 50 yd. indoor range. I only had a little time so didn't spend a whole lot of time there.(before going there I watched a few videos on range...

Thank you again to everyone who posted a welcome. Everyone on this Forum has been super friendly and extremely helpful to me with my limited knowledge of firearms. I'm hopefully learning quickly from all of you. I have been posting quite a bit in the Long Guns section because there was already...

The second SCR came with Nikon P-223 3-9x40 BDC 600 scope with the nikon P series mounts Nikon P Series Scope Mount This makes the charging handle hard to get at. I believe these are cantilever mounts and should solve this problem?(like I know what I'm talking about????). Is it possible that...

Wouldn't you know it; I picked up my 2nd SCR last night since the USPS had lost the first one and I just got a notice from the USPS that the original SCR has just been delivered to my FFL. I now know what my wife is getting for Xmas. I wasn't intending on owning 2 firearms this early in this...

Thank you. What I've done is ordered another SCR on auction and had it shipped overnight.It just arrived at my FFL and I'm going to pick it up in about 2 hrs. I contacted the the original seller and we're working on the refund. The USPS really messed this one up big time;they still haven't...

Well I've got my hearing protection ,eye protection, plenty of ammo, a range case to carry all my stuff,a new hard case for the SCR and a scope. I've been studying up on indoor range etiquette on YouTube. I am planning to go visit my local range once to introduce myself and review the range...

Thank you again. Best regards, Tom

I bought one of these for my SCR( which should arrive this coming Monday evening). Does anyone know what mounting rings/hardware I need for it? I'm anxious to mount the scope as soon as possible and I'm not sure I'll know how to figure this out. It's the Nikon ProStaff 3-9x40 BDC Rifle Scope.(...

Would this qualify as Black box American Eagle and am I ok shooting 556 with my SCR?: Federal American Eagle 5.56mm Ammo 55 Gr FMJ 120 Rds in Mini Can Thank you. Best regards, Tom
