Took the SCAR to the range for the first time today. Put 500 rounds through it with zero failures. The SCAR feels great. The weight is comparable to my ARs, but it is balanced much different. I like the feel of the SCAR. Prone position Wind was between 25 and 35 mph today Federal 55 grain (cheap stuff) The SCAR performed much better than I expected 100 yards Rapid Fire 200 yards 5 shot group

Has taken a while, but mine is on it's way. They put me on a list and then sent an email when mine was in stock. Very nice people - this was my first purchase from them.

Scope and mount arrived by big brown truck today. Hopefully I'll get to the range on Friday or Saturday and then post a range report.

Just saw the first black one up for sale... they only want $10,000 for it wow

Does that price include the mount and the optic or optic only? Sounds like he got a special deal, but everything I've seen is closer to $200 with no mount. Whatever I get I'd like to put on the flip to side mount.

If you've test out a Burris Tripler - what do you think of it. Price seems good, but I can't find anyone who has used one much. Here is a few links I found about it. http://www.burrisoptics.com/artripler.html http://www.ar15.com/forums/topic.html?b=3&...18&t=439973 http://www.ar15.com/forums/topic.html?b=3&...18&t=457973 I like the Aimpoint dot and have been considering one of their 3x to try on a flip mount for fun.

Thanks Carlos I now have 4 of their products and I'm very impressed with the company. The other 3 products I have of theirs have run perfectly with zero malfunctions so far. My SCAR will begin it's shooting life at the end of this week. I gave it an initial cleaning today and was pleasantly surprised at how easy it is to break down and clean.

The color is odd. Mine is different - the lower is darker. It appears that they are still playing with the color, since they seem to change colors as the newer batches ship. I've seen info that they might be putting out a limited run in black that is supposed to look good. I've seen a pic, but it could have been one of the older versions. I've always stuck to all black, so this color is "fun" for me. Stepping out of the box. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ How did you feel about the different recoil? Were you shooting optics/irons?

Got the SCAR I'll get it to the range asap and I'll post some target pics and give a report. Got a scope on the way, might be next week before I get to the range. Here is some pics....

I'm looking for the best price on an Aimpoint. I had a place, but they seem to be a little more expensive now. Where have you seen a good deal lately? Thanks

Wow .... Seriously, that is nice. Good Job.

Thanks for the link - very good information

I do have prior training in this area. I served in a unit that allowed me to do a tremendous amount of training like this (it's been a while though) and now I'd like to see some more of it from different instructors. So far it looks like there is not any fans of Suarez.... I am looking for some real - save my/my loved ones lives - kind of training. I'm going to spend some time checking into the suggestions given and I appreciate the information. Thanks

I've worked there a few times over the last few years and I did not find it to be as bad as it sounds on the news, but the stats don't lie there. Lots of problems.

I am going to go to a gun fighting school and I'm looking for advice. I'm interested in up close and personal type training. Right now I am thinking about some courses from Suarez International. Where have you been and was the training helpful for a fight type of scenario. I am looking for training that is related to realistic personal safety. Thanks

What weight bullet runs best out of your Kimber Custom II? Thanks

I'm about to start heat stippling some of my weapons. I've read a lot of information and I'm going to try a few different methods - wood burning iron - soldering iron - with different tips to get different effects to include a marred screw. To those who have attempted this.... What did you practice on? What equipment/tip accomplished the results you were looking for? What methods worked for you... Pressure/heat/sanding/etc... What didn't work? For IDPA/USPSA does this cause any issues? What am I not asking? If you want to - post some photos of your work. I will when I have some to show. Thanks

I have 2 holsters that I've found to be good for me for IWB. The Desantis Tuck This and the Ehud. I'm looking for a good IWB for the Kimber Custom II. Any Suggestions? Thanks

New SLP owner here.... I'm about to clean off the factory gunk and take it out for a couple hundred shells and I'm looking for info on how to care for this shotgun. I've never owned an auto (been using the same old pump for the last 15 years). What places should be wet and what lube do you use? Anything else? I plan on using this shotgun for 3 gun so it will be run hard. Thanks

I have not shot any three gun - I'm just getting started, but I have shot a lot of 308 out of a FNAR and the PRVI stuff has been excellent (sub moa) for me.

Took the Kimber Custom II to the range today and put 200 rounds down range. Zero failures - it ran excellent. Felt great in my hand. Looks like I'm going to have to get some .45 reloading gear. This is my first 1911 style pistol and my first .45. I need to get some gear for it... to start with I need mags. What mags go best with this pistol. Anything else I should know about this pistol or any other helpful info would be appreciated. Thanks Here is some info about the pistol: Model: Custom II Caliber: .45 ACP Features: * Full 5-inch barrel and steel frame. * Match grade frame, slide, barrel, bushing and chamber. * Custom features standard; extended thumb safety, high ride beavertail grip safety, beveled magazine well and slightly extended magazine release and slide release. * Match grade barrel is machined from a single piece of solid steel for accuracy and long life.

Free kind of negates the argument about price. Dude take the gun and run with it. If you like it cool. If not, sell it. It will sell for a pretty penny. Nope.... still a good argument, I won a chance to buy one. I want it.... I have a friend in Afghanistan that's using one for real work (the larger cal 7.62 version) and he has some great things to say about it. He also likes the 5.56, but said he only got to test the 5.56 and has the 7.62 issued to him. He said he has never had a malfunction with it and things fall down when he shoots at them. Good enough for me. I have started to learn that what might be good for real work might not be good for 3 gun, so that was my real reason for the post. I still have a desire to play/train with things that would serve a real world purpose if needed.
