I'm going hog hunting soon and plan on using the AR. Good ideas on types of ammo I should purchase? I was thinking higher grain stuff.

I saw a strike eagle 1-8 for 269 at either palmetto, SWFA, or midway. The illumination on either the PST or SE aren't very impressive, though.

For a true 1x red dot, you can find Aimpoint Pros for 365 and Trijicon RMOs for under 400.

I also have a Steiner P4xi 1-4 on my SBR suppressed .300 blackout and it is excellent, and at 479 for scope, throw lever and a free Steiner mount ($200)it's an absolute steal. The illumination is easily daylight bright too.

Damn, Steiner ended their mount promotion.

That sounded like a good deal.

I'm not looking for a true 1x red dot. I need something for longer range but still have 1x. Any of the 1-4 or 1-6 is what I'm aiming for. I'll probably get that strike eagle but I'm open to any brand.

I see Steiner gives an LEO discount. Wonder if it's a discount on top of that $480 or the regular $580 price.

Check it out. All 7 of my Military/T/P series scopes have been fantastic. I fear I am closing in on fanboy territory. LMAO

My vet (also an FFL dealer) has one of these in his vet shop. If you get it can I shoot it? I'll buy the ammo (the one shell I could afford LOL)

Shot many .50 cals in my life from the M2 to the Barret...sort of disappointing.

Pretty much like when We were getting ready to ship over to Viet Nam (11B). We had several classes on enemy munitions (bouncing betty's- AKs - Chi Com and the like) but the best class of all was on the M79 Grenade launcher.

To look at that damned thing - you would have thought that it would kick like a mad mule. Nope. Had very little kick to it. But it was fun as hell to fire.

where can i stock up on AK mags? I cant find cheapo ones anymore. I bought a 10 pack chinese steel 30 rounders for 25 bucks a few years back. anybody got a line on any deals like that?

This POS was my first handgun purchase, and subsequently the last american made firearm I bought. It is unreliable. It jams, fails to eject, double feeds, fails to feed. The extractor has broken twice, the trigger is heavier than a big block Chevy, the front sight hit me in the face while firing, and the barrel is basically a smooth bore at this point. I have been forced over the years to make some improvements with the night sight, and black chrome finish on the slide and barrel. I was offered about 30 bucks more than I paid for the damn thing today and I just couldn't let it go. Nostalgia and stuff I guess.

Anyways, I was wondering if anybody else has a problem child gun that they just can't get rid of.

ya, S&W blows man

I have a 9mm Beretta that I'd love to get rid of and only really purchased because it is what I taught people to shoot with in the military.

I'd like to get rid of 5 or 6 of my firearms but selling them is a bitch….

Any advice on where to get decent money for guns??
