RDB in OD Green, 17.2″ barrel
The optic is the familiar 3x prismatic with BDC reticle. The 3x reticle is not the same as shown in the video, but the principles of use are the same.
Accurate rifles are interesting. Accurate shooting is more so.
Let’s say we have a target one second of flight time away. For 62gr .223 that would be about 650 yards. Aim, correct for drop, fire…not even close! 10mph side wind will take the center of the group more … Continue reading
CMR30 in use
And between uses (with Vortex Spitfire 3x prismatic scope) Looks like fun, doesn’t it?
Another useful feature of bullpups
The forend comes very close to the muzzle. Besides making stable firing hold easier, it also prevents partial occlusion of the weapon light by the barrel.
Keltec production numbers
Looking at the ATF documents for 2013, I see Keltec production totaling 81,714 handguns. 22,875 of them were either PLR22 or PMR30 (more common). They also made 17,103 rifles of various models and 19,045 KSG shotguns. Not a huge number … Continue reading
A Sub-five-pound AR-15, for When Weight Matters: new on AllOutdoor

Comments Off on A Sub-five-pound AR-15, for When Weight Matters: new on AllOutdoor
Reasons to like Keltec CMR30
In my experience, it’s been reliable, accurate and fun to use. The optic shown is 3x Vortex Spitefire, quite reasonable with this cartridge for ranges up to 250 yards. 22mag ammo ranges in bullet weight from 30 to 50 grains. … Continue reading
Have you shared your knowledge lately?
Modern armies have 30 or so support staff for every fighter at the tip of the spear. The ratio of support to active fighters in the war to secure individual liberty is even more skewed. For every Alan Gura, thousands … Continue reading

Primary Arms 4-14x FFP scope
A long time ago, I acquired a Primary Arms 4-14x scope with a front focal plane reticle. Recently, a friend in his 70s needed better glass for his .270 TC Venture deer rifle, so it moved onto his gun locker. … Continue reading
Bodyguard
Why should dirty politicians be the only people with guardian angels? It helps if the weapon can be controlled with one hand. It also helps if it has greater range, power and accuracy that a typical handgun.

LaserLyte and AR Training: new on CTD
For improving marksmanship and point shooting skills.
Range time with Tavor
Yesterday’s range trip with Natasha and Jing was a lot of fun. Decent weather for the season, about 50*F and windless, made the shoot more comfortable than expected. We ran quite a bit of ammunition ranging including 5.45×39, 5.56×45, 6.5Grendel, … Continue reading
Poor, defenseless wimmens huddling together for security…
…stuck with century-old protective equipment. I wonder if feinsteins and other low-lives of the worlds would be comfortable with weapons that old in common use.

Red Lion Precision rotating rail
With Keltec Sub200o, you can either mount optics OR fold the rifle. Red Lion Precision rail allows both — loosen the collar, turn the forend 90 degrees left or right, re-lock. To deploy, reverse the process. It keeps zero. RLP … Continue reading
A friendly mountain man
Another 5.56mm MAD rifle, this one compatible with AR15 magazines.
The long and the short of it
Same general design, two distinct roles. Both made by Moore Advanced Dynamics.
Range snapshots of roller-locked guns
With one company making such guns known for rudeness and another for shoddy quality, it was nice to hang out with friendly people who make good 5.56mm, 7.62mm and 9mm roller-locked guns. By accident of lighting and timing, we can … Continue reading
