    Scope or Red Dot

    I got a Burris Tac30 with the red dot mounted on top. Scope for long shots and red dot for closer. Had them sighted in at Bass Pro a couple of weeks ago. My last two shots were dead on the target almost right on top of one another! Not sure what class I'd get bumped into in 3 gun with the red...

    New M&P 15T

    Got mine a few weeks ago and picked up a Burris Tac30 this weekend and had it sighted in last night at Bass Pro here in Springfield. The main scope is sighted in at 100 yards and the red dot on top is sighted in at 25 yards. My last two shots were dead center on the target almost right on top...

    My First AR is in, M&P 15T

    cyphertext, how can you tell? Is it stamped somewhere on the barrel? Seriously, I haven't had much time to inspect it since I got it. Also being new to ARs I don't know the difference. Which is better? Doesn't it have something to do with the accuracy with regard to heavier ammo?

    My First AR is in, M&P 15T

    Kadonny, you may be bold and ask but I don't have to reply. But no, I didn't get any sort of discount. I didn't get out to shoot it this weekend. As it is I haven't found the time to clean it yet. I'm looking forward to it though. I think since this is my first real AR (my 15-22 doesn't...

    My First AR is in, M&P 15T

    I just got an e-mail to let me know that my S&W M&P 15T is in and I can come over to the store to do the paperwork and pick it up. :D Living in Missouri all I have to do is pass the NICS check and pay for it and I can go home with it today. I'm planning to start shooting 3 gun. I punched up...

    Anyone use Remington high velocity 22lr?

    I have been using cheap Remington Thunderbolt 22lr in my S & W 22A and have had no issues with it. Although the 15 22 manual says not to use it so I haven't. Have been using Federal 22lr that I can still get at the range but they won't sell more than one sleeve (100 rounds) at a time as they...

    Hope everyone is set on magazines

    I bought two 25 round mags along with some other stuff at Cheaper Than Dirt a couple of days ago for my 15-22 and they have e-mailed me that they have been shipped. I too really don't care about 10 round instead of 25 round as I just use it for marksmanship practice. BUT: Here's the thing. You...

    New to forum

    New also from Missouri Bought my 15-22 on Sunday and ordered a couple of extra 25 round mags that are on the way. Hope to shoot it this weekend at the range if I can get the ammo. I read in the manual that it doesn't like the Remington Thunderbolt ammo that I normally feed my 22A. I have a S...

    Hope everyone is set on magazines

    I ordered two 25 round mags for my 15-22 yesterday from Cheaper than Dirt at a good price and I have been told they have been shipped. Really got the gun as a practice gun for 3 gun competitions but I'm wondering if the sport will be there in the future. NBC Sports which took over the Versus...

    Will the 15-22 fall under an AWB?

    Little by little The knee jerk reaction to this tragedy is to enact some laws, do something... whatever. The initial yew and cry is emotional and unreasoned. What is being proposed by the MSM and the left will not stop future tragedies and they know it. Why, because when they enact...

    VTACII

    I'm trying to decide between the VTACII or the 15T. Main use will be for 3 gun competitions. Would really like the 15T with a longer battle rail but I really don't want to get into replacing the gas block. Does the 15T come with a low profile gas block? Is the VTAC worth the $500 more over the 15T?

    New guy - Best S & W Mod for 3 gun?

    I'm a newbie here. So go easy on me. I've been shooting sporting clays and working my way up to Master the last 7 or 8 years and now I'm looking for something new and 3 gun competitions have peaked my curiosity. I have shotguns figured out for now and I have a 9mm comp pistol that I can use...
