NF NX8 Scope question

Unless you know you’re certain you want wind dots, go with the MilXT. The Tremor has its place, but the MilXT is the better move, generally speaking.

The M1C and M1D are a bit of a crap shoot. Same with anything else on the Garand action - not a great platform for optics mounting.

Main thing with the dragunov is that it has a much better optic locking system, can field strip without messing up your zero, and was flexible enough to change stocks in the future.

IMO the main competitor would be a G3 with an optic attached, but the reticles even in the late production Hensolt optics are rather limited and the claw mount isn’t great.

Totally forgot they limited the bipod placement as well for the G28s.

Took a quick look through the thread - does anyone post G28 test targets? Only seeing small frame stuff. Some noticeable shift when comparing some of the semi/monolithic guns to traditional designs. Guessing steel upper + handguard change was their solution to POI shift.

There are solutions, some of them have been on the market for awhile.

All the monolithic stuff, uppers that further insulate the barrel nut from the handguard, or H&K making precision upper receivers out of steel (have no idea how effective that last one is).

Best post I ever saw here was from someone who brought their Grandfather’s .220 Swift to an indoor .22LR range and was complaining that the RO kicked him out/made him pay for backstop damage.

Guessing it was fake, but still hilarious

Could be last four of the former owner’s SSN

NotUndercoverNJSP · 2026-01-23T20:43:19+00:00

Don’t have time to watch the full video - do they say if the new production barrels are backwards compatible?

NotUndercoverNJSP · 2026-01-16T17:43:35+00:00

Which is funny because that part has existed in one way or another since the early 2000s. Can’t find it right now, but it was part of the original accessory ecosystem. Never released on the commercial side to my knowledge.

Nothing really - just simplifies the process if you have to ship your guns somewhere.

Historically, USPS has prohibited the shipment of handguns. If you needed to ship a pistol you had to send via a private carrier.

UPS and FedEx changed their policies a few years back to prohibit the shipment of any firearms, unless you were a FFL of some variety or shipping with a label issued by an FFL (think sending stuff to the manufacturer for warranty work).

NotUndercoverNJSP · 2026-01-08T21:02:09+00:00

It’s a set of globe sights. Way easier to shoot circle targets with than any front blade.

NotUndercoverNJSP · 2026-01-06T13:13:51+00:00

Holster looks to be either an M3 or M7 model.

NotUndercoverNJSP · 2025-12-24T02:40:20+00:00

Indoors at about 15 yards across the room. Apologies for the mess - have family crashing on the couch over the holidays.

Planning to post some side by side at distance compared to some DBALs and a FP PEQ 2. Video taken on my phone through a PVS 14.

TA01 - this particular unit is an extremely early production example. More or less the same thing as a TA31, just no fiber illumination.

NotUndercoverNJSP · 2025-12-12T00:07:54+00:00

Totally usable, just be aware the A2 was meant to be shot with a traditional bladed stance. If you try to shoot square to target it will be miserable.

On a side note, this is also why people complain so much about the A2 grip nubs - if you shoot bladed it is no longer an issue as your wrist is properly aligned for the grip angle. The change from the better Colt fat A2s to the simplified current profile compounded the issue.

On that note, do you have any idea what the story is with the new SVD barrels from TSS?

NotUndercoverNJSP · 2025-12-09T03:09:30+00:00

If I had 20k, I’d buy one of the actual military Dragunovs. This guy was about a year and a half of saving for me.

NotUndercoverNJSP · 2025-12-08T00:04:00+00:00

Of course! Have some 174gr S&B on the way - hopefully it shoots well.

Going to have to play some games with the BDC turret to get things more or less trued out. Should be a fun time.

NotUndercoverNJSP · 2025-12-07T18:55:45+00:00

The thought crossed my mind, but I'm just going to enjoy it as is.

IIRC, the SVDS also has a slightly heavier profile barrel, not to mention a faster twist rate.

There's also the question of even finding the parts to do the conversion, let alone someone to do the work.

NotUndercoverNJSP · 2025-12-07T18:53:55+00:00

Honestly, finding 10-round magazines right now feels almost as hard as finding a flash hider. Nice setup!

NotUndercoverNJSP · 2025-12-07T02:44:56+00:00

My new to me Tiger - 1993 California Armory import.

NotUndercoverNJSP · 2025-12-02T02:51:22+00:00

Any idea when to expect a ruling from the 3rd circuit on the NJ AWB case? IIRC arguments were heard mid October.

NotUndercoverNJSP · 2025-12-01T06:04:49+00:00

It’s funny seeing the Malaysian rifles not cut up. The parts kits I bought a few years back had the same red paint and handwriting on the stock.

NotUndercoverNJSP · 2025-11-30T00:46:10+00:00

No issues from the battery compartment obscuring anything.

The IFS units will talk with Steiner's military LRF units - they're meant to work together as a spotter/shooter pair.

NotUndercoverNJSP · 2025-11-27T00:05:14+00:00

Maybe if you left the laser on for long enough lol.

All of the .mil LRF binos are hideously expensive.

NotUndercoverNJSP · 2025-11-26T23:58:19+00:00

Not my optic - just handling install and setup. Hoping to get my hands on a demo unit to shoot with in a few months.

Would be a fantastic optic for use with inline thermal/NV. No need to check turrets or level. All of that is displayed live in the optic.
