I got it in black... I have a SCAR17 in FDE and I am like meh about FDE...

Not really interested in the commy gun platform, but the ammo is cheap...

Not DC, but Maryland...although DC should allow law abiding citizens to carry, because this sh1t is getting ridiculous..

I don't have anything in FDE so I got mine in it. Luckily I was able to have the mag sent to my VA address so it matches. I didn't have anything in FDE until the Tavor. Your groupings from your post at MDS looked pretty good. That was without any adjustments, just slapped the Lucid on and it shot that good? Nice.

I got my 74 in 5.45x39 because you can get the ammo really cheap. You can get a 1080 spam can for 175 at Wideners. Its a good time to stock up because eventually that stuff will be no more. Plus the simplicity of the AK platform is rather nice.

D.C. is the most backwards city when it comes to how they try to handle gun laws. It did result in the Heller decision which is being used in the recent lawsuit filed by AGC, MSI, etc. against the State of Maryland. We'll soon find out if the district court judge agrees and they stop the insanity or if we have to take it higher.

Man, I am on your side.. Im finally starting to see whats going on, and what has been going on, its crazy.

How do you guys like the tavors?

I'm debating between another AR build and a tavor. I really like the idea of a bull pup but I'm not sure I would love it in practice.

I like the Tavor so much more than most of my AR's... It is a really fun gun to shoot. The trigger needs work but I am sure there will be some aftermarket stuff out shortly...

If there was an ATC trigger for it I think I would hang most of my ARs on the wall...

Hey guys, I've got an extra P226 .357/.40S&W 12rd official mag I'm looking to sell. If anyone is interested, PM me.

Thinking about getting a Noreen Bad News or ULR in either .338, .408 or .50. I like the portability and simplicity of the ULR. And I wouldn't mind having a real bolt gun again. Definitely going to get the Remington 700 SPS Tactical chambered for .300 BLK. Why not? lol. But back to the Noreen. Anyone have anything to say on these? Barrett is fine and the local gun store has several and yes, I've given it some serious thought. But if I can save a few pennies and get equal performance, or better, then the rest is self-explanatory. I just can't seem to find ammo for .408. AT ALL. Anyone know where to get the brass/bullets for that round?


Nevermind on the ammo. Chey Tac actually stocks it (finally). Speaking of which, looking into the Chey Tac .408 Intervention M200. Any thoughts?

Why not indeed!!:icon17:

I'm building a 300 BLK AR-15 when I get back from my trip.
From scratch with all custom parts from Noveske, JP Enterprises, Wilson Combat, Magpul, and ASA. :drool:
I already have every thing except the lower.
Can't wait to get home!

If you do get one, are you going to reload?
I'm going strait to reloads due to the scarcity (and price :shakes head:) of factory loads.

We'll have to have a range day after I'm finish building mine.:tup:


I wouldn't mind owning one.
How ever @ close to $13,000 (or more) for just the rifle it is very very low on my list.
Probably never own one.http://www.runemasterstudios.com/gra...mages/sigh.gif

I'm more interested in other "cheaper" rifles.


Speaking of other rifles......

Kirkster (and any one else who has one)
I'm very interested in the SCAR 17S and I was wondering what your thoughts where on it.
Like it?
Hate it?
Worth the price?
Would buy it again?

Been saving brass for a few years. I have nearly 5,000 .556 cases to form into .300 BLK. That was the idea from the get-go.

I built my own .300 AR all from pieces so if you have any questions please ask. I posted a couple pictures of it on this thread awhile back if you are interested in finding it.

Range day sounds great. I'm mostly waiting for my tax stamp to come back and get my suppressor and also for powder/primer costs to come down a bit more before I start reloading so I can hit the range in force.

I only have a couple hundred rounds of factory loaded ammo for the .300 and a very limited stock of .300 Whisper (subsonic) ammo. I decided that since the purpose was going to be mostly urban and thus likely indoors that I wanted a dedicated suppressed weapon so that helped kick out the blackout reticle optics. I looked at the EOTech 300 optic last week. It was nearly pointless and your eyesight better be perfect. I'm just going to slap an Aimpoint T1 on it and call it a day. Otherwise it is a bad-*** mofo. lol! It aint light. But it'll take a beating, kick *** and live to tell the tale. ;)

I figured with turning all my brass into a common subsonic load I would be more than comfortable attaching the suppressor on the bolt gun 300. It is a Surefire Mini 7.62. They recommend for bolt rifles with a barrel length longer than 16". Should work out well.

I know you can't say when you are coming back but pm me when you might like to get together and take the toys to the range.

you fellas are on top of your game..

Just got mine recently and have not had it at the range yet. From what I'm reading folks who have a Tavor like them. Downside is that because its a bullpup, the trigger pull is always heavy. There is a simple mod to remove the return spring, but some have experienced failure to reset problems. Gieselle is supposedly working on a trigger for the Tavor and a few other companies if I recall so that might not be a problem for long. Extremely easy to open up and clean. I just installed a Mako Foregrip which I think will work very well. Now just need to get it to the range.

I'm eager to hear how it goes. I am not generally a fan of the bp trigger but I like the platform a lot.

Well I bought 500 already converted and annealed.
I liked the fact that they are annealed, they should last longer wrt reloading.
I'm staying supersonic for now.
When I get back, if you need some primers for let me know.
I have some CCI No. 41s I might be willing to part with.
I like EOTechs, have one on my ACR (EXSP3-2).
I do have an Aimpoint Mirco H1 and T1 as well, love them both especially their size.
Since my 300BLK build is leaning more towards taking out tasty critters I'm putting a scope on it.
I found the pics of your 300BLK AR-15...Nice!
Wouldn't mind seeing that Surefire in action once your stamp comes in.:tup:
