The accuracy is all in how you use the optic, its no less accurate than a 1moa dot. You could sight it in such that the top of the dot is your poa/poi, and use it kinda like a front sight in a 6 or sub 6 hold for more "precision" or slowfire work. For quick and dirty, center of the dot. At 50 yards, it'll cover 1" of the target ,at 100 yards, 2", at 200, 4" etc... Also, Eotech makes an EXPS3-4 I believe (could be wrong on model #). It has multiple dots, the typical one directly in the middle for 0-200y, then a dot for 300,400,500y or something to that affect. If you are planning to use it past 200 yards, you have built in hold overs.

Incorrect. This bill updates the definition of loaded gun in a vehicle. That applies for CCW holders and non CCW Holders. CCW holders can transport a loaded pistol any which way they like, but cannot do that with a loaded rifle. Right now, the definition of loaded being a loaded mag, whether or not its inserted into the weapon or the weapon is chambered, is fucked and this fixes that.

You were told wrong. Read the ORC, it says nothing about rounds loaded, but a weapon that is adapted to fire more than 31 rounds without reloading. Sticking a 40rd mag in your AK is adapting it to fire more than 31 rounds.

I wouldn't hold your breath. They could very well end up with a May Issue law like California vs a Shall Issue like we have.

Those statues don't come into play if you are transporting THROUGH Illinois, then only the federal FOPA comes into play.

Now that I have close to $200 in trigger upgrades, I might actually agree with this.

I would imagine Bowie did it when they did the other work. If you are looking for duracoat, I know a guy near Lodi that is pretty reasonable. However, I'm not sure how I feel about duracoat on a pistol, I think I'd like something a big tougher.

Assuming her father filled out the NFA paper work (either paying the tax or during a tax free amnesty), it would be transferable to her via a Form 5. If she doesn't have the paperwork, there *may* be a chance the ATF has a copy, but their records are notoriously bad. Without the paperwork, her only recourse is a museum or torch cutting it.

I just installed the new AEK trigger in mine today. Still not sure if I have enough over travel in it yet. It required WAY more bending of the loop on the trigger bar than I expected. That said, I'm pretty satisfied with the improvement to the trigger feel.

FYI folks, this is illegal to use in the state of Ohio unless you plan on using it in a legal machine gun or an SBR (I believe this passed the litmus test via a court case).

I think my next AR build will be a 300BLK SBR. I already have a 30 cal can, but I'd do another one for that build.

Dude, it's title 2, there is no such thing as title 3.

Also check out SAS. They are a pretty good value.

Actually, depending on the mount it's the same price. Keep in mind, most competent gunsmiths strive to ensure their threading is concentric to the bore, factory threading , not so much. Now, since you are talking about doing an overbore can, this is less of a concern since the larger diameter means less chance of baffle strikes from a poorly threaded barrel. Ti is great for bolt gun cans, but for a semi auto you'll want to do the research to see if they are rated for a decent sustained fire. For an AR, I'd lean more towards an Inconel or stainless construction. Also, don't use a centerfire can on a 22. 22's will foul the ever loving hell out of a can, and you don't want that in a bigger centerfire can that will likely not be take apart. Get a dedicated .22 can, and get one that comes apart. My recommendation would be the SWR Spectre II. I have the spectre I and the newer version is an improvement, not to mention cheaper. Call me before you talk to anyone about purchasing, one of my closest friends is a dealer/class 2 manufacturer and I can probably get you a better deal through him.

No, just wrong people. It's not my fault the only time you have been right that I've witnessed is when you are parroting information I gave you a year ago.

The problem lies in when folks who know their shit suggest something, others cry foul over the cost. Scopes for instance. If someone recommends a scope that costs over $200-300, all these guys who have never used anything more than cheap 3-9x go nuts.

Also, since I'm in such a swell mood today, let me know what price you find for the package you are looking at and I'll see if I can't get you a better deal. And yet another thing, look at the Stevens 200. It is a Savage action and you may be able to get the base rifle cheaper.

Also, to directly answer your questions... The AXIS isn't worth your time unless you plan on selling it when you need something more. While the Remington 700 action is better, I would go with a Savage. Savage is your choice due to low entry cost, and the ability to upgrade barrels without a gunsmith. You can get a new barrel in .308, .260, etc.. by a barrel change and bolt swap if you start with a .223. Also, even if you want to stay with 223, you can get a heavier barrel (I'm assuming you are looking at their "hunter" weight options) with a match chamber and a better twist rate. Also, there are lot of good options now for replacement Savage stocks. You can even go real fancy and get an AI chassis or a McCree. Since you mentioned distance shooting, you want to get the fastest twist rate you can find to stabilize the heavier bullets when you start reaching out there. Many varmit guns have a 1/12, I believe most of the Savage do 1/9 and the Remington SPS tactical does 1/9. At the very least, get a 1/9 as it gives you the ability to use up to 69gr bullets. You'll want a 1/7 twist eventually if you are looking at shooting the 77gr smk or some of the 80 or 90 gr vld bullets (note you will be loading past mag length so this may) make your gun single feed depending on your mag system. A hot 77gr load (think 556 pressure vs 223 pressure) will get you to 1000 yards on a good day. A 223 pressure load with an 80gr vld will probably be better. I have a buddy that likes to shoot his 223AI with 90grainers at 1200yards just to show people it can be done. Kevin makes a good point in that if you start with a .243 you won't need to swap bolts if you switch calibers, at least for certain ones that don't need a magnum boltface. I know you are looking at their package deals, and I'm not up on the price difference, but opt for a varmit setup in the package vs the standard weight barrels.

There are quite a few gun owners here. There are far, far less experienced shooters. On this thread, it hasn't been bad in terms of bad advice.

Researching gun shit here is a terrible idea. The ratio of good advice to bad isn't favorable.

Call Rich Hart, he's over in Uniontown by Clearwater. He's a dealer/ccw instructor, however he only does the dealer stuff by appointment as he has a day job with Canton PD as a patrol/swat officer. We went to college together and competed together on the OSU pistol team. 330-581-3076

I literally just ordered it. Next time I go to Brian's I'll bring it and you can compare.

You'll be way happier with the trigger. Apex now has a replacement "duty" trigger that I'm putting into my mp9 soon (already have the dcaek kit/ram), you may want to consider that while he has it apart.
