Hey MG, thanks for the info and ideas. TM

If the scope has an integrated mount, I don't know of any option other than an adapter rail.

Oh yeah!

Football, guess I actually mean cheerleader season is upon us. Let us all be thankful. NFL Cheerleaders :thumb:

Please!

I have long suspected that is what we are doing in the US. All of the warning labels that have no purpose other than to protect stupid people. I have started collecting warnings for stupid people. (I may write a book) My former favorite one came with a new clothes iron - "Warning - Do Not Iron Clothes While Wearing Them". I just purchased a small Coleman cooler at K-Mart. It has two moving parts, the handle and the lid. It came with two pages of warnings in four languages. For a freaking plastic cooler!!! Such as: "Be careful not to get your hand caught in the lid", or "Keep the lid shut when not removing contents", or "This product is meant for keeping contents cool and it does not have functions for freezing, refrigeration or heating". IMO, people that need these types of warnings won't/can't read the damn things, and should be filtered from the gene pool. Got any warnings for me???

What brand/model scope do you have?

Excellent! :thumb:

Oops -sorry - it is a Russian CM 2, .22lr single shot. Mine is supposed to have a walnut stock, adjustable trigger, stock, diopter sights.

Looking forward to it.

CDNN sports has them used in different grades. Mine was $299 shipped. It is a bolt action, single shot, and I am sure it will be a project gun.

So, have you shot it yet??

Maybe you didn't read that part. In the spirit of learning something, Especially from 7:35 to 7:50 - an excellent slo-mo of a barrel whipping during firing. If you hang something on your barrel, it will change POI. If you have something on your barrel and it is loose, you will never shoot accurate groups. (Except by accident) This I know, my Garand had a slightly loose gas block, and shot 8 ring groups @ 100 yds. Now on to another subject on the Tac22 learning channel. ;D I am thinking that ATF would frown at your homemade suppressor. They are also illegal in some states. Last I heard, it was up to 10 years/$250,000 - and that is just the federal rap. It probably isn't wise to post that info on the net - it never goes away. C:-) BTW, I also have an (unmodified) comp from Umarex on my M4. It is not loose, and doesn't rattle on the barrel. There is probably an other issue if yours rattles - could be missing the o-ring - if you overheated it to get it apart, the o-ring was probably vaporized. TM :thumb:

Glad you are OK, hope the clean-up goes well. :thumb:

I am confused. If one listens to or reads MSM, this hurricane is the end of the world. But if you go to Drudge, there are pics of folk surfing, watching waves, and some scientist saying "Scientist mocks: Phony 'Hurricane' Coming On Shore With 33 MPH Winds...". So... I'm confused. :confused: Whichever, stay safe you guys!

Sweet!

Really??? :o

Tal, Looks to me like you need to get into reloading. Nice report on the Storm. Thanks! PS - 17 guitars?? Have you ever been to a Vintage Guitar Show? I got to go to one in Arlington Tx a few years ago. Wow!

Don't know if this is what you are talking about, but I have always wanted one of THESE. I got to shoot one once after resurrecting it for a friend. It had been lost in a barn for 20 years. They are hecka accurate. The T bolt is a straight back pull, then forward, 5 round mag. I really like the one in the link with the thumbhole stock. Before and after pics.

Let me see if I have this correct, Colt/Umarex M4, with the OEM quad rail system attached to the upper receiver, and the barrel floats. Bipod attached to the quad rail. Everything works fine at this point. You removed the front sight, installed a gas block quad rail to cover up the holes in the barrel shroud. You then mounted the bipod to the new gas block quad rail, (the barrel is not free floating anymore), and point of impact went up 2 inches. Mounting the bipod directly to the barrel, (shroud in this case), is causing the barrel to flex. Put the bipod back on the M4's rail, and that should put your POI back close to where it was. Probably won't be exactly the same because the sight was changed out for the gas block. Edited to add: If you are interested in the technical stuff, search "barrel harmonics". TM

Howdy!!

Smurf - bet you will enjoy it! :thumb:

Welcome!

Very nice!!

There are a few... ;D
