Mornin all,
I don't see a "search" on the forum page, I do see one on the "home" page but it should also be on the forum page.
Most of us have a Bersa, but we all have other weapons and need a forum besides the "Other Handgun" one.
How about a "long gun" and or a "carbine" forum so we can discuss them. This site is a little too restricted for a gun site.
I just picked up a Hi-point 995TS that I am impressed with. Anybody else have one or is interested in one that wants to talk about them?

I am all for a long gun forum, sound like a good idea.

Me to.I will post some pictures of my ar-15 and the work I have done to it

 

[hobbles]

Cool, it's a start.

 

[hobbles]

My Compensator arrived and it looks good on the weapon.

Not a bad weapon and setup for under $350.
Hi-point makes mag holders for the 995 but I hear the mags will fall out if used in a rough situation, like having it on my atv. (I didn't make these with flaps on to hold the mags in place, so I made another set)

so I made my own holders.

 

[hobbles]

If you have FTF's adjust the mag like this

and make sure the rounds look like this

not like this.

I was adjusting the scope from my pistol range (21 feet) before I moved out to the rifle range. These all have two rounds in them. I'm impressed with this weapon.

 

[Tony1990]

Hi Hobbles, I must say that your Hi Point 995TS with compensator looks great, and you say total cost is $350. Assembled or did you have to put it together??

 

[hobbles]

Morning Tony.
One of the gun shops here in town had it for sale for $259.00. We settled on $243.00. I added the Compensator, scope, sling, two mags and the bi-pod.

My story,
Ya know Boys, I can take out the trash and the dog will just lay on the couch and not move. But if I grab my weapon, and she's not even in the same room, she hears it and I ain't going out the door with out her tagging along. I think she likes to laugh at me when I miss.

Anyway, I am getting used to the holographic scope. I could not co-witness it with the front sight so I took off the sight and use the scope like it's supposed to be used.
To get used to it I will fire one round then put the weapon down and use my binoculars to check the POI. That way I am re-sighting my weapon every time I fire it.
If you look at the left side of the targets, you can see the green sight I am using to line up on the target. The circles are 4 inches round and the targets are 100 feet away. I have to shoot through my pistol bench as you can see.

There are 10 rounds in each target and my pattern isn't bad, but,, there darn near always is at least one round that I don't get lined up right and will end up out side or the circle. Now I am getting better, but I'm not there yet.

That is one mean well armed 4 wheeler you have there.

Sorry for the late response. did any of the other mods get back to you on this? It's a good suggestion.

As for the search option..... it's at the bottom of any page. Odd but I think I can ask to have it somewhere more visible.

Morning admin,
I suggested/asked over a month ago if we could ad some subjects to the forum list, I see nothing has been done as of yet. We need more options that we can post about. We have a few guests stop by and read the old posts, but don't seem to ad anything to them. We need more options to get their attention. Deer season is getting ready to start, that should help get a "Hunting" section started.
I see you are an Administrator on here, but you say "Odd but I think I (can ask) to have it somewhere more visible". I don't understand that one.
I have been an Administrator and it was my job to fix what the members asked for. I would contact the host for help till I learned the program and they would help in any way I needed, but it was 3 other Administrators and me that ran the board.
Thanks for pointing out where the search was. I seen that, but the "Google" threw me off. It's fine where it is, I'm just a little slow some times.
Question: Are any of the "fix it" Administrators members on here or are they just the host crew? Do they have weapons?? Do they shoot ???
You have a good moderator on here, Tony really tries to get the board moving, but he needs help, he also needs a raise.

After noon Ross,
That's lookin good!!

Hey Hobbles,

I have asked the techs if they can add the search function on all pages of the site and I have communicated your suggestions to the mods on the two sections you mention.

Thank you

Hi Admins.
Don't want to rush anybody, I mean it's only been over a month since we asked for help on the board. Maybe these can help in some way.

Counter suggestion for the new forums, Rifle or long gun area, Old guns of the west or Military weapons, Home defense area or reloading ammo. Or where is the best places to buy ammo and where to shoot. So what do you want to see and in what order. Soon as I hear back I can get the new sections put up.

Did you want to make a completely new parent forum with all of those as child sections?
