kurtm Posted January 31, 2008 Share Posted January 31, 2008 I must confess that with a scope on it, it is more of a toy to me. The only time I shot it at paper was to zero it. I have shot the hell out of it at the .22 shiloette range which is 35-75 yards. We have racks and racks of tiny rams turkeys and hogs that are air restable, so I just stand there and shoot and shoot and shoot. I will shoot paper with it latter this year to get back in the swing of cqb with a TA-11 cause I think it is time to shoot a match with a scope again just to say I did it. Then it will be full size fronm 3-50 yards with big huge swings between targets. KURTM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryan 45 Posted January 31, 2008 Share Posted January 31, 2008 (edited) Here's my .22 trainer. 10/22 with Tech-Sights: It works well if your match rifle is like the bottom one: I prefer to practice by shooting at targets of opportunity at various ranges from field positions. Dirt clods, rocks, milk jugs, clay birds, stray cats.... Edited January 31, 2008 by Bryan 45 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kurtm Posted January 31, 2008 Share Posted January 31, 2008 AAAAAHHHHHHHH the M-14, The rifle of my youth!! For you a 10-22 would be great the way it is!, An M1 carbine would also have worked as a trainer...but cheap .30 carbine is as rare as cheap .223 these days! Nice set of guns!

Bryan 45 Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 Thanks for the compliments guys. I've actually used an M1 carbine in matches before. Several of the guys were whining that I was using a pistol caliber rifle, until I whipped out the calculator and showed the Carbine has a considerably higher PF than the AR15.

For a lot of matches, it's just about perfect as long as you have the long mags for the carbine. Lot's of pistol distance shooting around here.

Dan Sierpina Posted February 7, 2008 Share Posted February 7, 2008 Wow that nordic is awesome... any idea of sticker price? $224.95, you still need a stock, buffer tube, float tube and pistol grip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pardon my ignorance, but will the buffer tube do? Edited because its a tube, not a tude. Edited February 11, 2008 by No.343 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blockhead Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 I haven't seen it apart but I'd imagine that the buffer tube screws into the Nordic frame and then your stock anchors to the buffer tube. While I got to handle it at SHOT, I was so overwhelmed by the coolness of the concept and potential cost savings I didn't look closer at how it all goes together.

Dan Sierpina Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 Blockhead is correct. The stock attaches to the buffer tube. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gose Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 (edited) I prefer to use my .22 AR for cheap/indoor practice. Same trigger, sights and "feel" as my CTR02. Unfortunately the confines of the indoor range greatly restricts drills, but I do mag changes, positions, mounts, switching between optic and irons, strong/weak shoulder transitions.

sslav Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 Wow that nordic is awesome... any idea of sticker price? $224.95, you still need a stock, buffer tube, float tube and pistol grip. So you are looking at something like $500-$600 to put it all together from scratch? I suppose if you have an extra 10/22 and a bunch of AR spare parts laying about it is much better option.
