All those flash mill dot scopes are a military design for combat so can also be classed as "milspec & 'zombie' guns/whatever".Quote:

The hunters can throw the shooters under the bus with their "milspec & 'zombie' guns/whatever" because they don't like them. They will soon find that their long range sniper rifles are next on the wanted list. After that we can throw duck hunters and bird hunters on the heap. Don't worry deer and goat hunters you are being replaced by WARO and professional hunters. Shooters will sit back and laugh (actually no).
Sad state of affairs.
...problem really comes from a yank with a history in other forums: who has previously raised the spectre of body armour effectiveness: not sure where that fits in with working together to protect NZ firearms users and interests?Quote:

If you are worried about "image to outsiders" personal insults and threats are not going to protect NZ firearms users and interests either.
trust me you don't wanna wear that shit whilst trudging through the forest it's heavy, restrictive, hot and at best unless it's military spec (which I can't comment on) it "may" be effective stopping light small arms fire but not at point blank.Quote:

Got to love that middle selector stage for the AKs.
Remington 700 in old fashioned 7mm Rem Mag for open country when the short 308 won't do.
Have had this rifle for a while but added the stock this week, I will just leave it as it is for now. I am looking for some Alumina caps and will possibly get a louder and leave it at that.
Trueflight Ultra Match Barrel finished at 26",action trued etc..,Timney Trigger, Ken Henderson stock (Hi Tec Composites) and VX6.
Shoots 162 ELD X (3050-3100) + 180 ELD M (2890) well, haven't tried anything else yet.

my two zastavas both went sub moa while checking zero so a happy day.
Just curious where are all these mall ninjas giving black rifles a bad rep in NZ.Quote:

Latest pop gun build. Faxon 16" 6.5 Grendel. Still waiting for dies and other bits to get it running.
^^ Nice - I wonder about cerakoting the lower and upper . . . . and turning the scope 90 degrees so it can be used as a carry handle without the windage turret attempting to make a hole in your hand, anyone every tried it??
Bought these in the last few months :

I turned my scope till it formed an X rather than a t for a while...great in the bush but a mongrel to sight in and kentucky windage is a tad problimatic. so thats 45* I guess.Quote:

Just got my 1952 M70 Supergrade .270 back from Allen Carr- he re-blued it and polished the feed ramp. Very happy with the result.Attachment 90158
Attachment 90159
What did the rebluing cost approximately?
$375. He did a bit of polishing on the barrel and action to get rid of some light corrosion as well. His work is always really top notch.Quote:
