The Debrief - Can a CQB Rifle Be a DMR?

When the M14 rifle was adopted as the United States battle rifle to replace the .30-06 M1 Garand, it also helped introduce the 7.62×51 NATO (.308) round to the world. 113/c2jPK04/VVnjbG496sLmW6-jJ1D79GFpSW2K0rfL4TkfTHN2v9B1Z3q3npV1-WJV7CgJPJW3s3-mh23YSckW1RvM9V6xwy9CW4kR03N6316yHW3rCtW817PPxDVCQJ0T2TstyFW2JypVr4C_KrQW96H7p42Vw9TyW3Ch89k86zZ_5W8TNFwP5Xq3wFW7QTYNj2D4_C1W7sPmlR6gV6bgW4SvYdr3lzhBnW7-cD7-1TkBGYW6bjXVD1WZNgxW47KdZ-74_dDYW1cYyL761dk0WW8pdnhw67JWZfW39Fj3Q5g6WvVW6RN-6b9hJzvCW2YLKCb766NRYW5kFzf94JZ4qwVf94PX1HSk1F333T1 113/c2jPK04/VVnjbG496sLmW6-jJ1D79GFpSW2K0rfL4TkfTHN2v9B2S3q3phV1-WJV7CgHppVRNmvx67KZkTW7QgLF87K0yBQW6WhG-K714yQkW3wNLxx3zb1PwW7Bw9BQ4wVXSQW5qfGd65S2ypfW2jcnDF5xjznpW7DvT6X4hBRJMN7SQjcVlgTXdW11MzNn7ft6SKW5pq-085cHzSXW2xqV9z3SxSFyW3c-Gml6MQ0zTW8fQGFD8DV3ZsN7rdcD15g1lNW4qn6Dt2RkJs4V6Pg3w8kYR-kW5c-lRn7QW2vxW45vVtC3JBdwTW75xW741jFrgdN2KH-jklvtP3W7JtKz993gmTLN12z8ZvHBW1wW6LzKNL4bTYygW6zslmC1GBXVlW1ZJh6R6m9MBDN85n8Fj8_s-qW5njQyY6-RQpJ3nbs1 [CAN A CQB RIFLE BE A DMR?](113/c2jPK04/VVnjbG496sLmW6-jJ1D79GFpSW2K0rfL4TkfTHN2v9B2S3q3phV1-WJV7CgGnGW41kVW818pRjdW6psvpj4ZR50PN6kW7_WqWrFzVs58Z37n0CXyW1501Gh8B3YB0W5TL96y5HpJLnW6QkrmK7bnPXFN7LrT-sGD1GhW7Gt9Nk6XnhR-W5jshl5174XQ7W3D_szT1lgdmHW4skvfF5NySFZW54TKGN4SDlJ5W1THCYK901GJKW17888S3Y4Yf-W5MH4M257f8J7N6gkbfvRsmlVW54R5Ml6wgCJGW4pHckh2Kx69bW5twMtS8DttynW6_fXmY1pWq1CW60bLGx6YlMHyW3gJKbw3S3TxZVDWvyB1xR-DrW4Jw2dH1694NwW3wqkt53DJ5dPW5RxGsQ6_3xHqW70Jjtp2x11X634FW1) By Beyond Seclusion December 8th, 2022 - When the M14 rifle was adopted as the United States' service rifle to replace the .30-06 M1 Garand, it also helped introduce the ...

To start us off, Beyond Seclusion mounts a red dot to his M1A Scout Squad and tests how far he can reliably ring steel. At 500 yards, the shorty M1A put Hornady bullets on steel and asked for more. Shockingly, this was all done with a non-magnified optic.

Next, Tom Laemlein makes World War II more tangible than it’s ever been with true color photography from the epic conflagration. While many people assume color photography was not available in the 40’s, the National Archives proves otherwise.

And finally, Jeremy Tremp customizes his Hellcat Pro with a full range of upgrades from Apex Tactical and a custom finish from Koted Arms. From the trigger to the magazine release and more, Tremp demonstrates what the crafty engineers from Apex have cooked up for this advanced CCW pistol.
