    Late Ajack elevation housing flip

    So I just noticed at some time in the 50000-52000 serial range, Ajack scopes have the elevation block flipped to the reverse of earlier scopes. Here are examples. All the late Ajacks in Kriegsmodell are like this one, anyway, screw pointing aft. I never really looked into it. Shown are HT...

    Letter home from the field

    Useful excerpts about scoped rifles and snipers

    Yes, I completely agree. When I was in Iraq, some guys in our unit fabricated MG swivel mounts for the gun turret side plate on our HMMWVs from M113 mounts found in DRMO for backup M249/M240 guns, this became a battalion wide accepted and condoned modification, and some guys were tasked with...

    Useful excerpts about scoped rifles and snipers

    SO if they don't have the monopod, they were to build one from a tree branch and carry it in the field. Interesting. :thumbsup: Jeff

    LAST of the 4 book sets

    I need Vol. I AND Vol. II, I don't see Vol. I on the site for sale! Oh, No! Did I miss out on it? *EDIT Rereading, I got it. You have VOL I and II, which is 3 books. I got confused with "set" and "volumes" and such. What's the price for those 3 books together? Jeff

    LSR rescue

    I got the solution from a friend, I am not sure where he got it. I think it's for sale at Brownell's. The hard part was keeping the temp up with a makeshift trough big enough for a barreled action. I likely won't be doing that project again, it was a pain. As for the rear sight, it would follow...

    Couple more. I have to find a new way to do lighting. This is outdoors under a sunshade, it is almost always sunny here. I think the pics are way too dark. But full AZ sun is way too much. I don't think so, I'll try to straighten it if so. Jeff
