    Used a dealer from another forum for the Vortex CF2 and got it for less than eperticity or GovX.

    Has anyone every purchased anything from Outfitters Emporium?

    They have a discontinued scope I am interested in, but I am unable to purchase it direct from their web site. I called and got an answering machine.

    They seem rather Cheaper-Than-Dirt-ish - just want to be sure they are legit.

    All zeroed. What a great shooter. Went from store right to range and mounted and zeroed.

    Shitty eye club lol.

    I was shocked how clear the glass is on this scope for the money. In fact, the vortex coming in tomorrow is going on my BiL's rifle.

    So um, let's talk about form 1 suppressors. Anyone do one? Did you convert a solvent trap?

    Ruger 10/22 with Bull barrel. I have it sighted at 100 yards and hitting MOA with CCI 40 grain competition.

    Due to wind & velocity MOA is not as consistent as I like but it is possible.

    I took the bipod off my CZ and went back to bags. The groups were much better.

    Also fixed my eye relief/cheek weld with a little padding. Didn't take much at all

    Added flair lol

    I imagine I could do better with bags. But I've practiced quite a bit with the bi-pod that I feel comfortable enough hitting the 100 yrd targets. I never really see me going out that far besides for comp or range days anyway.

    So obviously I’m curious now.. what’s the legal ramifications of getting caught with this? Obviously I’m not a shitbag and so it’s unlikely I’d run into a situation where I’d have to explain me being in possession of something like this, but let’s say a game warden approached you and you were in possession of this while target shooting. You’re screwed right?

    Why not just purchase the real deal, legally?

    Better to err on the side of caution. I'd go the legal route.

    Yea I have no interest in going the sketchy route.. it just peaked my curiosity and so I figured I’d ask to see why there’s a legitimate market for this if it’s in fact illegal to be in possession of it (assuming your caught using it for its unintended purpose)

    I keep saying I’m gonna apply for a suppressor.. but I’m still dragging my feet.

    Carry on

    Those linked arent suppressors until they have a series of holes drilled

    Kinda like an 80% suppressor

    No biggie but then you gotta file with ATF to build it, get approved and then drill holes and such

    Interesting.

    Reminds me of a book you used to be able to find on how to build suppressors. For educational purposes only, of course.
