The LF308 Battle Rifle AR-10

The first gun I ever bought was a Remington 700 SPS Tactical in .308 win. Ever since that day, I have been in love with that round. It is my favorite rifle cartridge. Can it do everything? God no. It can, however, do most things I want to do. With that said, when I was looking at building my AR, I was originally looking to make an AR-10. I learned quickly that it was a lot more expensive to build that. Due to costs, I built an AR-15 instead. I never did lose my itch for wanting an AR-10 though.  [Read more…] about The LF308 Battle Rifle AR-10

My Experience with the Arsenal SLR106 AK-74 Rifle

Back when I was in my early 20s, I wanted to get a semi-auto “tactical” rifle. Living in California my options were limited. I could build an AR-15 or get a California compliant Saiga AK-47. I was fresh out of the Army. So, I decided to get the AK-47. That rifle was a solid shooter. I could consistently shoot steel targets at 500 meters. The biggest drawback for me was the “cheap” ammo was all steel. As I mentioned before, I lived in California. I was also working at a shooting range. I have put out more fires than I can count that were started by steel ammo. With the knowledge that I couldn’t shoot it as freely as I wanted, I sold the rifle to a friend of mine. With hindsight, that is a decision I regret. [Read more…] about My Experience with the Arsenal SLR106 AK-74 Rifle
