Nutnfancy reviews the Rock River Arms booth at SHOT. I love their guns. I haven’t decided if I like the look of the piston gun they have but it sounds lovely.
If you don’t know much about the .300 BLK then read this article at Cheaper Than Dirt. I can’t decide if I want to build an AR in 300 BLK or buy a Remington 700 in 300 BLK. I think I’m going to wait on the Remington because I may build one at the gunsmith school.
In a recent Gun Nuts Media post Caleb writes that he doesn’t ” ‘get’ rifles”. I guess if I’m understanding him correctly he means he doesn’t understand the use of rifles and why people buy rifles. I don’t really want to criticize this statement anymore because I may be misunderstanding him. Caleb may not understand rifles because he comes from a pistol shooting world. I, on the other hand come from a rifle/shotgun world and I totally get why people use rifles. I come from parents who don’t know anything about guns and have never done anything with them. Barely have seen any in real life. So I was introduced to firearms mainly by my grandfather. And my grandfather used rifles because they are the most practical to hunt with.
Caleb also writes about the Ruger Number one and how great it is and how he would use it in a zombie apocalypse. I don’t want to discuss the malarky surrounding this ridiculous zombie apocalypse idea in the firearm world. I’m hoping/know Caleb is joking about all that. I really am not a fan of that Number 1 rifle. I want to be able to have at least one round quickly available if I’m bothering to carry a rifle. Especially one used for BIG game. A rhino charging rhino is not fun to be coming at you. Ya some people will argue you should only need one shot but a lot of the time/most of the time I shoot multiple targets within 5 seconds. Like 5 deer on a dead sprint 4 feet in front of me. Killed the two I shot at. That was a crazy day. I’m not going to disagree, the number one is beautiful rifle but not the rifle for me.
