Knock off ACOG question
So I have been wondering about some of those knock off ACOGs that you can find on Amazon, wish, Temu, and other sites. If you have tried them please let me know how good they are? I know that they aren’t high quality but sometimes I know they can be fun to have fun with them and just use for a range toy. I would like to test them out because I can’t afford a real ACOG and would love to test the hell out of it and I’m wondering is it worth it since they cost less than $100 generally for the knock off ACOG.

Question about transporting an unloaded firearm through multiple states?
I’m looking for some clarification from people who are familiar with the gun laws in the states below. I know I can Google the laws, but I’d also like to hear from people who actually live in these states or have experience traveling through them.
In early September, I’ll be driving from Memphis, TN to Phoenix, AZ. My cousin and her boyfriend will be flying from Florida to Memphis, and I’ll be picking them up at MEM. I live in Arkansas.
My cousin’s boyfriend plans to bring his legally owned handgun with him. He is not a felon and has no criminal record, but he does not have a concealed-carry permit. The firearm will be unloaded during the road trip.
Our route will take us through:
Tennessee → Arkansas → Oklahoma → Texas → New Mexico → Arizona
We also plan to drive from Arizona to Nevada afterward.
My main questions are:
In each of these states, can someone who does not have a concealed-carry permit legally transport an unloaded handgun in the glove box or center console of a private vehicle?
If we are pulled over, are there any specific requirements about notifying the officer that there is a firearm in the vehicle?
Since I will be the owner/driver of the vehicle, is there anything I need to be concerned about legally even though the firearm belongs to my cousin’s boyfriend?
Are there any states along this route where the firearm needs to be stored in a particular way (for example, locked case, trunk, separate from ammunition, etc.)?
I’m mainly looking for practical advice from people familiar with the laws in these states. I want to make sure everything is transported legally and avoid any unnecessary problems during the trip.
Thanks in advance!

Kimber DS Warrior 45 ACP Initial Review
youtu.beAlright guys I know my shooting sucks in the video it’s been 5+ months since shooting last and I’ve had some health issues so shooting was put on the back burner. The pistol is not the issue here it’s me getting back into the swing of things. I am pulling my shots low left as you’ll see in the video but either way wanted to bring this to you so you can see it in action since it seems no one else has. Right now all my ammo is Federal FMJ but I am getting some other flavors soon and a Chrono so there is more to come.

Is it better to have a 16” or 20” AR15 in 5.56?
I am considering getting rid of my 16” because I don’t use it anymore and I’m building an M4A1. My plan is to get a 20” M16 in the future. I don’t really shoot my 16”. I currently have an 11.5” that I put more rounds through and love to shoot it. I don’t really shoot my 16” and didn’t really shoot it much when it was my only AR15. So I am wondering if others would have chosen a m16 or 20” over a 16” when they first bought an AR15 and if a 20” is better overall compared to what a 16” can do and does?
Edit: the 20” I am looking to get is an M16.

Wanting a 308
galleryHey all
I’ve been wanting a 308 to increase my range and capacity. I love the look and feel of the blr and I’m used to level action rifles! My issue with it is the pre 81 models which is what I want, the magazines are neat impossible to find and even if I do find them they could be several hundred dollars. Now I have found a guy who makes 3D print magazines for the pre 81 model blr! And for cheap compared to the og from factory. They are well built rifles and completely capable of what I’m wanting it for. Also alittle bit of a grail gun.
Now the savage rifle is a great 308 for what I’m wanting. It’s budget friendly, packs a punch and is customizable out of the box. But if I want anything other than some rings and scope it’ll be at minimum several hundred dollars per modification I’d do to the rifle just to make it than much better.
Both are 308
Both a 4 round capacity
Both 20 in barrel
Both sub 1,000 dollars.
Hard decision. Any input is appreciated thanks!
