I missed the "Someone I know WANTS it." part. My apologies. that changes things, and its worth whatever they WANT to pay. My explanation, which I hesitate to give, is twofold. It may be a very attractive package for someone that wants something the want to call a target rifle, and go out and...

If you really want maximum $ for it, you should separate the scope and rifle, sell independently. Its realistically a $800-900 rifle off of Gunbroker, maybe $300 on the scope, off Gunbroker. I would not think it's a very attractive combo.

The G43X/G48 are as close to ideal in NY as there is, IMO. Quality, trusted design, excellent size grip and slim width with your choice of length, light, 10rd capacity by design so you don't have the bad feels carrying a 15rd gun w/ 10rds in it. Screw the traditional da autos, if your reasoning...

Exps 2-0, and you will be happy

In 20 years or so of being pretty active in the local scene, I haven’t heard any issue with factory Howa rifles or barreled actions. I wonder is any of those issues you mentioned had anything to do with the disassembly and rebarrelling operation of a Howa 1500/Vanguard? I’ve heard rumblings of...

I"d have to disagree with the Howa being weak in any significant way. But the rest of your suggestions are spot on. I would put the Bergara above all the others as you mentioned as far as value for the dollar.

In this instance, what difference does it make if your are handed this firearm listed as receiver, or this firearm listed as rifle? The only time it would matter is if you were aged 18-20.

It's not. It is a receiver. It will be written on the front of 4473 as "Receiver" and the box checked on the second page will be Other. I don't know what is so hard to understand here.

NY Shooter Supply in Albany is supposed to have a ton of 9mm available for sale Saturday morning along with some Mossberg Shockwaves. 5.56mm and .223 has still been in stock most days.

Powder choices I've made for 68gr-77gr 5.56mm Max Pressure loads have been Tac, A2520, AR Comp (always out of stock when I wanted it), N540, Power Pro Varmint, Leverevolution and others I've forgotten. Some have worked better than others. I really lean toward a Western Powders product whenever...

Below most other shops in the area. .65/round for american made 5.56mm. I'm told that wholesale price went up another .10 a round a few days ago. So watch for prices to climb even farther.

NY Shooter Supply in Albany had a couple thousand rounds of 5.56 and 223 left. No limits. Tons of 308 and 7.62x51.

Depends on the day. Incoming prices are apparently all over the place, so retail price varies as well.

VEPR all day

NY Shooter Supply in Albany today had a good amount of all rimfire calibers, plenty of .223 & 5.56, 9mm and just about everything else. Lots of powder and projectiles, some primers. Always well stocked in ammo and reloading components.

NY Shooter Supply inn Albany has plenty of stripped lowers for $99 or less. Decent complete build kits in stock for $600-something with sights. Plenty of magazines and quality ammo under .70 a round.

Do a contact form to Chris @ Green Force Tactical, or better yet get on their facebook group and ask. Lots of people use their different iwb holsters with ulticlips. They do it right.

Buy a quality holster and belt, then try it. Some people have different needs.

It's a crap holster. Either you know it, you will learn it in due time, or you don't Want to learn about it.

BUL does a great job with these frames. They have been making them for a while and they know what they are doing. It's too bad this youtuber didn't do a better job reviewing it. Has an air of slight incompetence. They are a better gun than most people will give them credit for, and a bargain in...

Traded off my G43 and have three good RH holsters left from it. Prices include shipping. Can take PayPal, will also take .223/5.56 brass in trade. NSR Tactical C-2 in Blood Red $40 Comp-Tac Infidel Ultra Max $40 Comp-Tac OWB Coyote $40 Vickers Elite Tritium Sights (one year old) $40

All that was needed was s shot of those cans of Varget!

Green Force Tactical Nsr tactical Soft loops, screw the clips.

I bought the athlon Midas tac 1-6x for an 18” .223 upper. Seems to be a great optic and the reticle is nice for close up, to a few hundred yards, IMO. It’s supposed to be set up for 68-69gr bullets, which thankfully shoot superb out of it.

Clip type IWB holsters suck. Soft loops are the ticket. For a small, short barrelled pistol, I really like NSR Tactical C-2. Otherwise Green Force Tactical's Custom IWB is a hit. Both with soft loops.

If your FFL has a gunsmith license as well, which they should, they also have a separate gunsmith log book. No guns coming out of that need 4473. If your dealer is putting the gun in question into their "bound book" of firearms transactions, then it would need a 4473.

Never thought of that. I'm gonna try that on someone. "Hey, new guy, find me a box of .223 Wylde for this rifle!" Kinda like making the new auto tech find the canuder valve or the sphincterknuckle on a car.

What could have been...

Please explain.

Poor wording. It is remotely possible to draw from a POCKET holster while seated. While possible, it is unlikely that you won't already have lost that fight by the time it's out IMO.

Good belts. That dude is a toolbag though.

Great resource for any of us that like to push the envelope with same, or similar chamberings. It is refreshing to see more people out there experimenting outside of the common reloading manuals and manufacturers data, and sharing their results.

Kore when you want to look good, SOE when you don't care.

$1500 Kimber should have the description spelled correctly. Looks cool, just lipstick on a pig.

I don't know what quality kydex maker does a holster for that pistol, but green force tactical does offer their "custom iwb", or any of their models, for the ruger SR pistols. My G48 carries better in that holster than anything in a hybrid ever has. Excellent quality and design.

You could do worse on an iwb holster. But soft loops are where it’s at.

Much like you, I was going to stay out of it.... BUT, in addition to the quality belt recommendation I can say undoubtedly this: The OP can definitely carry IWB with a GOOD holster. My body is less so suited to it and with the proper equipment and willpower, you can carry IWB, get a proper...

Really, Shawn's video illustrates it clearly. Screw all of the talk about how well all of the fancy optics with complex reticles work, how I zero my hunting rifle, how big my D is, etc. Reality- if we are talking about intermediate rifle cartridges, expectation of immediate incapacitation, and...

Handled and examined one this week. Not particularly impressed. Hopefully it's saving grace is exceptional reliability. But, I have doubts. Id rather a Taurus TX22 and a pile of magazines for $3something.

Yeah,, gotta keep working with them. I believe I made huge gains in shooting tiny pistols by shooting DA revolvers heavily, and accurately for a couple years. The P32 is/was one of my favorite tiny pistols. I bought mine new around 04 or so, and carried it in my pocket on and off till a few...

And a significantly longer oal, with negligible ballistic advantage.

Group size has nothing to do with POI or rifle zero.

It's a bargain compared to an unobtainable SBS (in NY). Brace it and its extremely useful.

Common theme seems to be single action triggers vs double action triggers. Disciplined live and dry fire practice makes perfect though.

yup, fedex/ups air only from a non-satellite drop off location. usps only if you have a current ffl.

Yes, great video and visual representation. 35-50yd has always made the most sense to me for an intermediate caliber carbine.

Yes, they are especially stupid. I would not worry about it, but I would also correct them on the mistakes. Chances are, they have been recording things wrong for so long, they aren't going to believe you.

Yes to the poverty pony. But that doesn't necessarily make for a bad rifle. Over the last 15 years, bottom of the line priced rifles have seemingly crept closer to mid level offerings in quality.

Looks great for the money. Worth it just for quick decapping before wet tumbling.

I'll bite again... We all know (should know) that real rifle rounds work, and handgun rounds (even out of a rifle barrel) generally suck. But momentum, tied to bullet construction, from your specific handgun at terminal distance has everything to do with wounding when you don't (won't) know...
