    Dan Crenshaw planned gun control all along

    I think the comments about his eye injury are childish, one can disagree with his political stance on an issue without being disrespectful of his service. I support background checks, I don't support new laws, I want the reporting system and data base improved. I oppose any law that violates...

    M1A thoughts?

    If I sodiered or JB Welded a fake flash suppressor on a NY M1A would it have any negative effect on harmonics, POI? I'm thinking no but want some feedback before doing it. Thanks.

    I'd go with a SWFA fixed power.

    Firearms bills in the assembly/senate to watch

    They discovered they can't define "assault rifle" because there's no such thing, just as there's no such thing as "assault rifle ammo". They're such idiots.

    Adirondack State Land

    No I'd need a 338 or 50 cal for that.

    Adirondack State Land

    It probably wouldn't be useful once the foliage is back, either way it was just a possibility.

    Adirondack State Land

    The Indian Lake area and further north there are some other possibilities.

    Adirondack State Land

    I'd like some input on the idea of back country target shooting on state land in the Adirondacks. I know in theory target shooting on state land is legal unless posted otherwise but if I were to hike into the back country and do some long range shooting?

    AG Nominee Barr - no friend of 2A?

    Two years the Republican Party had total control of Congress and the White House, yet nothing on protecting gun owners' rights, nothing on stopping states from infringing on the Second Amendment. Why trust the Republican Party? And I may add the SAFE Act was approved by the Republican controlled...

    Let talk 6.5 Grendel

    I had my Grendel out this deer season but nothing presented itself. On the range its great.

    Building a 308 AR for hunting

    I built a 6.5 Grendel last summer and had it out this past deer season. I went with an Alexander lower, a Hardened Arms upper, 18in barrel, and an A2 stock. On the flash suppressor problem I got a Northern faux suppressor, it's non functional but it looks better than nothing. With a .308 you...

    Chris Collins indicted

    Quite a while ago he was asked about his stock market dealings by Wolf Blitzer, now if I were he and I was asked about something I was involved in by a reporter, I would see it as a heads up that someone was looking at what I was doing; for whatever reason he didn't. I suppose its just part of...

    Nice brother. Mine loves Federal Match 175gr, I ran some 185gr Juggernauts through it last time out, but I found the 175's were still just slightly better. What does your's prefer to feast on?

    NYGF Long Gun Pictures Gallery: Show off your Rifles and Shotguns !

    Thanks guys. I paid $179 for the steel M40A3 Badger rings, but they were worth it. They're .886" and sitting on a steel Leupold 15 moa base. The muzzle brake is a Surefire, which does a great job of keeping the target in the reticle for follow up shots. I've had the weapon for a couple years...

    Let talk 6.5 Grendel

    I've been slowly building a Grendel this year, nearly done. Alexander lower, Hardened Arms 18" upper, A-2 fixed stock, modified for NYS- a Boar grip, and Northern mock muzzle brake. All that remains is the BCG and charging handle, its on order. As for planned use, NY and FL deer and FL hog...

    Itialian 6.5 carcano

    I have a 7.35 Finnish Carcano, they have an interesting history. It came with what I would consider cheap old reloads, I shot it a couple times and decided to stop so I wouldn't damage the action trying to extract the brass. I think it should be fine with quality brass.

    In building it to be NYS complaint I would error on the side of caution as much as possible. Also make it complaint as you go so that you're never in a position to possess all the parts to build a non-complaint rifle. You can do this by buying the BCG last. There is a company out there that...

    M27 And 'Head-Toe' Gear For Grunts !

    Its a complicated problem, NATO has made the 5.56 and 7.62 standard, the latter is the best bet however it would require an all new weapon and increase ammo weight. The domestic answer is the 6.5 Grendel, change the upper on the M-4 and good to go. But getting NATO to go along would be a...

    JB Weld

    Yes, at this point I think it would be wise just to avoid any questions and have it welded according to ATF specs. Thanks!

    Local gunsmith to pin and weld thread cap

    This thread has me reconsidering JB Weld, I may as well pay the few bucks to have it welded. Suffice to say most upstate LE don't agree with the law but its their job to enforce it, DA's on the other hand tend to be political animals. ;-/

    JB Weld

    I considered sending it off to have it cut and crowned but then I found a link here to Northern Gun Parts, I bedded my M700 with JB Weld and its held up very well. Thanks for the info Podmonkey!

    JB Weld

    I'm sure this has been answered but I couldn't find it. I'm building a NYS compliant Grendel, I found a source for a faux flash suppressor, Northern Gun Parts, so this is my question: If I purchase a barreled upper with a thread protector and JB Weld the faux suppressor will I be good to go? My...
