I use peltor sport tacs, but I have a 30Db reduction muzzle device now

Ha ha, thats the better way to go IMHO.

Does anyone have any ear pro recommendations? Quality is more important than cost. I only have 2 ears and plan on doing a lot more shooting.

I use the Howard Leight electronic muffs($50) or surefire plugs($15). If I shoot anything compensated, I use both.

I also use Howard Leights. I think they are called Impacts? For the price they are incredible. Indoors I use some Peltor combat plugs with the muffs.

Just wanted to post that Jeremey turned me on to a website www.swfa.com I was looking for a good scope for my model 70 30-06. I ended up getting a Simmons Aetec master pro 4-14 by 44 with a lit reticle. these were normaly $259 but were on sale for $139 and another 25% off from simmons with a free 4 inch sun shade. Swfa were great to deal with and this scope is clear and bright was a great buy. I can not recommend swfa enough! Thanks again Jeremey!

anyone try Gunzilla CLP yet? I bought some yesterday, but haven't gotten to try it yet

 

[sleevefullofaces]

I use the regular Breakfree CLP. What's supposed to be the difference?

Me too, I just read the Gunzilla spec info and it looks interesting though.



BTW, thanks Large and Sleeves. I picked up a pair of Howard Leights muffs and Peltor plugs.

 

[sleevefullofaces]

Nice! The Impacts are one of the best firearms related bargains out there IMHO.

I normaly use breakfree CLP, but some guys were raving about gunzilla. They said it works really well. Its also non-toxic and doesn't have a bad odor, so you can clean your smokewagons inside and not piss off mama :thumbup:

 

[sleevefullofaces]

Mamas used to bad odors around me.

 

[peppercorn]

I have had no luck, even with Accubore, getting the lead out of this barrel, looks like melted wax in there. Any ideas?

I got kicked out too, by momma and the little one.

Pepper

I heaven't used it but I heard good things about lewis lead remover

 

[BushcraftBrainTrust]

Mamas used to bad odors around me.

Blame it on the dog.

JB Bore Compound gets stuff out, and doesn't hurt the bore.

Any of you guys have a Les Baer? I want to buy a 45 but I'm interested in performance and accuracy. I was thinking in the Les Baer or the Sig Sauer P220 Super Match. Any ideas?

 

[rlarge10]

Les Baers are made 2 hours from my house. They are legit!

I have a Les Baer TRS. It's a great gun.

Caveats: I like the Brown grip safety better. Also, the TRS came with Novak knock-off sights that do not have the white outline around the tritium.

De-burring the internals of LB's (or any 1911) is a good idea after a couple of thousand rounds, too.

Happy 1911 hunting!
