  1. If you are interested in hunting whitetail (or any game animal in Texas) in 2013 with a silencer/ suppressor (and yes they are legal) we are doing an informational series on silencers. Please check them out. If you like them, subscribe to the channel, there will be about 15 more videos on the subject coming over the next two week. Check them out.
  2. Pretty good review of the SBR 762x39 Diablo. There is also a good review of the Sig 516 piston on the same youtube channel.
  3. Hope you do not shoot that at the RiflesOnly matches. If you do we might have to shoot our Glocks again. Good looking pistol. I need to shoot it to make sure it works. TJ does not care And don't worry pete, I put 300 rounds through it sunday and it will be the steel punisher... I now know why benny, ty, and merlin all have a 9mm.
  4. thumb does not touch I am planning on using for three gun, steel, sniper matches (when you shoot rifle and any handgun you want), and general practice, since it feels just like my 40sw fatfree.
  5. Well, just got my new 6" fatfree from Benny Hill. And DAMN its sweet. Its a 9mm 6inch hard chrome with a schuemann barrel The fit is flawless the trigger is flawless The finish is flawless i will shoot it tomorrow, and i am sure it will shoot flawless as well by the way, the bottom of the magazine is engraved with the punisher logo, when the black anodizing is removed, the aluminum underneath really stands out. (we have a jewelry store, and just got a new computerized engraving machine). Anyways, thanks Benny for this work of art.
  6. Looking to get a dedicated 22lr upper receiver for my AR, cause DAMN 223 has gone up. Does anyone own one that runs well? or can make a suggestion on one that will? thanks in advance for the suggestions..
  7. LOL!! If i did not know any better I would think that was setup! very smooth merlin
  8. +1 for both... 13 guns is no arsenal, by any stretch.. they mentioned no shotguns, supressors, class III SBRS, full autos, '50cal long range weapons of mass destruction' you must has atleast 3 of the 5 to be considered for the arsenal club...
  9. Well, one of the local gun shops was having an informational presentation on African safaris, by invitation. I was invited. If you showed up it was $50 and you got a chance at winning a safari. Only 30 people would be present. So I asked my dad, the luckiest person I have ever known, if he wanted to go, and he hoed and hummed about it, but said he would, I asked the gun shop owner if there were any spots left, and he said, yes only one. So my dad and I show up to the presentation, eat some food, and of course, my dad wins the drawing... why I asked him to go I have no clue... I knew he was going to win. So he won an all expense paid 7day guided hunt in South Africa, for a warthog, blesbuck, and impala... I am now in the process of selling my kidney to see if i can go with him and maybe carry his gun for him. This is like the 5th raffle that he has won.
  10. Custom vs stock is no question... Customs are DEFINITELY worth the time and money... the only reason you need a stock pistol, is if you need it now. Benny Hill is on this forum, and he is one of the Best in the Biz (the best IMO). He has already built me a 6inch fat free, an AR, a Benelli, and is currently working on a single stack for me... Do a search on a 6inch Fat Free and see what the other guys are saying... pretty much anyone who shoots a fat free, ends up buying a fatfree. my .02

  12. yehaa! Merlin, you are a braver man than I...
  13. for what its worth, I think the Meopta is the best looking 'game' optic i have seen. I went to the shot show and hunted for a possible replacement. the only thing that came remotely close was the schmidt and bender (or as i like to call them, schmidt and bendover) short dot. It is a 1-4x with super optics and a little dot/ring reticle, but it is also THREE TIMES MORE expensive than the meopta and does nothing better.... The meopta is IMHO the best game optic on the market right now.... as testiment to the meopta, I shot the 'minute of madness' at the tiger valley match (thirty shots at three hundred yards on a funky silohette) and cleaned it with a howling 15-20 mile an hour cross wind at 4x (and I am not all that great of a shooter) as far as the reticle, remember you are shooting steel/cardboard not benchrest groups...
  14. I have been experimenting with grip pressure, and a very good shooter told me to startout by gripping the gun as hard as you possible can, then release the grip to the point where you holding the with just enough pressure so it does not fall from your hands. Then fire two rounds... they gun should almost come out of you hands, then gradually increase the pressure, until you find the point of dimenishing returns on how hard you grip the gun. I have tried it a few times now (starting at like 10% grip strength and working up). It is pretty interesting to see that up to a certain point, no matter how hard you grip, it does not track any better. This drill gave me a very good reference of how hard I need to grip (which is not that hard). Matt also had a good point, if there is a long difficult shot, I will normally loosen the grip up a little more then normally, to help increase my chance of hitting it.
  15. you don't have to have a FFL, you can sell camping stuff, and as long as you have a business tax ID number, your in... I am going to be there, walking the 20 miles or so of show... No time to stop and meet at the show, too much work to do...but the if someone has any suggestions for afterhours...
  16. Merlin and I have discussed the rare earth magnet Codpiece... still working on that. But sometimes, 'accidentally' dropping the mag and doing your reload is faster with the penalty than trying to cram it in your pocket and having the potential of dropping the darn thing anyways.
  17. I am having the same problem, had to go to ultra high oxygen difussion rated contacts.. the doc says that the little viens could cause interference with vision. The wife and I are setting up appointments soon. Since the contacts are becoming less of an option, the insurance is willing to pay for most of my Lasik, since standard glasses don't 'work' with my work, and contacts are going to f' up my eyes in ten or so years. the wife on the other hand has perfect vision in one eye and only a bit off in the other, so she gets 20/20 for half price
  18. Chuck has the best takedown Defense in the his weight class (probably in the UFC). Randy had one of the best takedown/ ground control games... Randy could not get Chuck on his back long enough to hurt him. Tito is a ground and pound specialist... his strengths are neutralized by Icemans takedown defense. I give Chuck a 2 to 1 advantage... Tito is no chump, and in most fights he is definitely at an advantage, but in this matchup, Iceman has the upper hand. I need to go to Vegas.... to bad I don't gamble, I am like 6 for 6 for my UFC championship picks

    New Glock "upper?

    tough to find just an upper, and when you find them they go for a premium. Shot for a good deal on a whole gun, and then sell the frame, you will come out MUCH better than buying an upper.
  21. for the money, I think the RRA is about is good as it is going to get. For a factory part, it is probably the best 'factory' trigger (expect a JP). I have a RRA 2stage in one of my AR's; it has about 3000 rounds through it, and has never given me any problems. highly recommeneded
  22. well, as far as size and quality of my US unit, it is not relavent, since we have four of the them and all were pretty expensive (my father and I are jewelers). I tried my 'secret' ultra cheap jewelery cleaning formula earlier this week and it seemed to REALLY clean the brass, as in, when you shine a light in to the case, all you see is shiny brass, NO black what so ever. But the out side of the brass was slightly discolored. The discoloring seemed more obvious when the heater was on, then when the heater was not on... (my 'secret' jewelery ultrasonic cleaning solution: one part water, one part plain household dollar store ammonia, with NO added detergents, and one part Mr. Clean. My dad has used this solution for over 30years now, and works WONDERS on gold/gemstones. DISCLAIMER: if you cook some of this up at home, don't use it on pearls, opals, amber, coral, ivory or anything else organic) I have also read that a diluted solution of vinegar works well. I am planning on trying it later. They say that you have to neutralize it after using it with backing soda? My current thought trend is put the brass in the ultrasonic for about 5-10 minutes, knock out all the crud from inside the cases, rinse them in the sink. Then, just tumble as normal. This will add about 15 minutes total to he whole case prep process, which is a very little condsidering the amount of time I spend on my long range rounds. I will be using the ultrasonic mainly for the primerpocket and inside the case. The tumbler will make them shiney and smooth again (on the outside). The tumbler never seems to do anything to the inside of the cases. Will report back later with the results.
  23. I am thinking about using one of my Ultrasonic cleaning units to clean the insides of my precision rifle brass (308 Lapua thats been worked). I have a unit with a heater on it (liquid gets to about 120degrees F), heat can be turned off. First off, does anyone use an ultrasonic to clean rifle brass? Second, if you do use it, then what is your 'secret' formula for cleaning? Thrid, would you use the heater or no heater? Will 120 F cause any change in the brass (as in softening, I think 120 is low enough to not effect it, but just checking) thanks
  24. +1 get creative on finding brass, it helps alot with cost
