    Advise on thread adapter for 22lr suppressor

    I've got a Dead Air Mask in jail that I hope to have soon (this will be my first suppressor). I'm looking at a 22 to put it on, and am looking at CZs. I really like the 457 Royal, but they are unfortunately threaded 1/2x20 instead of 1/2x28. There are a number of $20-$30 dollar adapters made...

    how to clean very dirty/sandy binoculars

    Was on a canoe/kayak summer trip and a friend misplaced his dog. I gave him my zeiss conquests to help his search as he wandered back upstream. Good news is the dog was found the next day. Bad news is when he gave up the search and got into a kayak to catch up with us at camp he put them in...

    2 1/2 inch 12 gauge shells

    I picked up a nice old london boxlock this spring and am hoping to chase some birds with it this fall. The downside is it has 2 1/2" chambers (the upside is it weighs 6lb, 2 oz). Its in proof at 1 1/8 ounce and would be planning on shooing 1 ounce loads. I'd hoped to buy a case of shells for...

    Any experience with The Upland Institute training series?

    Getting a PP pup this spring. My first versatile dog after many generations of field goldens. Have been enjoying listening to podcasts with Justin McCale and was looking into their Upland Institute on line training series. That said, it's relevant lyrics pricey compared to say the Perfect...

    20 CO residents points....

    I've got 20 resident pronghorn points in CO and am at a point in my life where I have more time to think about cashing them in the next 1-3 years. Any recommendation wrt what units I should begin researching and scouting? Back when I started I assumed I'd end up around Craig but I'd heard that...

    WTS ammo for sale in N Denver area (30-06, 7mm08, 454, 45 colt)

    I've got surplus ammo in calibers I either don't own anymore, or have friends reloading for. Seems like now it a good time to find them a new home rather than them sitting around in my garage for a decade. Right now I'd rather just see if there is anyone local interested for a pickup so I...

    Chamber vac bag recommendations

    Decided to pull the trigger on a chamber vaccum sealer. What bags do folks recommend? Is it worth the extra coin for 4 or 5 mill bags for general applications? Any specialty bags worth trying out? Any preferred brands? Thanks for any advice!

    WTS Ruger Alaskan 454 Casull

    For sale a lightly used 454 Casull Ruger Alaskan in excellent condition. I've had it for several years, but it only made it on one AK backcounty trip. I've become a convert of the 10mm Glock 29 due to size and weight, even though it doesn't have near the power of the Ruger. $775 tyd, as long...

    Torque wrench recommendations

    So I finally have a Barrrett Fieldcraft on the way. One tool I'd finally like to get that I've never had is a torque wrench to enable checking and resetting the action screws (36 ftlb and 80 ftlb). What to you folks use for this type of work? Will the FAT digital wheeler or the weaver, both...

    Barrett Fieldcraft update

    Had called them a few weeks ago inquiring about the rumored 280 ai and was told that it had been shelved. Called again early this week as I had heard various rumors about Fieldcraft production and had noticed that fewer rifles seemed to be available at least on my online searches (was looking...

    Composite stock painting/refinishing

    Would like to have a composite stock repainted/finished in what I'd term "speckle tone" or "granite". Anyone know of companies or individuals they'd recommend? Thanks!

    Stupid question....How do I "watch" a thread?

    I see the option to follow "watched" threads - but I'm not smart enough to know how to watch one?! Any help is appreciated!

    any opinions/experience with the new Canon EOS RP?

    Never posted on the photo thread before - so be gentle with me! Looking to upgrade my camera (or my "big" camera). Have an old Rebel XSi with both the kit lenses and looking to step up. Intrigued by this new Canon as I'd like to go full frame, but really can't see myself lugging anything a...

    Cooper 92 Backcountry and heavier bullets

    I'm toying with purchasing a Cooper 92, leaning tdd towards 280 Ackley. Been trying to do as much due diligence as I can via internet searches. Seems to be generally happy customers, but one theme that occasionally pops up is the rifles only grouping well with lighter end bullets. I also...

    Barrett Fieldcraft ring height question

    Question for any fieldcraft owners out there. If I'm planning on putting a Leopold vx3i 3.5x10x40 on top, should I go with the low rings, or the medium? I generally like my scopes as low as I can, and with the fieldcraft barrel contour I'd short low would work, but sometimes when I try to go...

    Sierra Trading Post Cordova 100qt cooler

    Cordova 100 cooler (which is actually 88qt - not 100) for $149 with their current 25% off coupon (EF63TG321). I have a smaller version of the Cordova that I bought previously and IMO its a very nice cooler. If I didn't already have a big Grizzly cooler I'd have bought one if these...

    Is it worth upgrading to GAIA premium?

    Used the standard subscription for the first time last year. I currently don't need the land ownership boundaries - this will be primarily used in backcountry AK refuge areas. Is it worth upgrading to premium? Not sure if the maps will be any nicer for those areas. It has weather forecast...

    quick new Glock G4 29 with KKM barrel and hardcast report

    Picked up a G4 Glock 29 about a month ago. Ordered a set of 22# springs and a 4.6 inch KKM barrel to go with it for hardcast "bear loads" - knowing they aren't necessarily necessary. Took it back to the ranch this weekend with plans of shooting it (for the first time) stock with various ammo...
