    Magpul Leaving CO,?!?!?! Surprised? NOT !!!

    From what I hear, they've already begun transitioning, although no official word yet. Basically location scouting, I think. They should come up here. Hell, one of our senators just introduced a bill that would offer gun and gun accessory manufacturers incentives to move production here. If I...

    Handguards

    Carbine is a shorter gas tube than a middy. From what I understand, though I've never noticed this personally, the main difference between the two has to do with pressure in the bolt and running fast. For day to day plinking, either is fine. If you're running full-auto, I think carbine is...

    Handguards

    Looking at a couple: Troy Battle Rail, 7", drop in...comes in FDE which would go along with the rest of my furniture: More likely getting the Troy Battle Rail Charlie-CX, a 12" drop-in free-float with carbine cutout. Requires no smithing to install, and it looks pretty badass to me:

    Good week

    I've got pieces and parts of two builds coming at random intervals now. I'm financially out of the ordering business for a while. Have enough parts coming to build one complete rifle and all but an upper on the other. What goes where will probably depend on what gets here first....lol. I have...

    Hey, me too. Those were the days. :)

    I concur about the supporting members getting access...that makes sense.

    Members only section. ..

    IMO, since half the idea is to keep guests from browsing through deals, that it should definitely be more than 5 days/50 posts. I could throw 50 posts up in a night if I wanted to (I obviously haven't been doing that...lol). Then I'd just have to wait a couple of days and I'd have full access...

    I'm 100% behind the idea. To show my seriousness and loyalty, by tomorrow I'll be a supporting member if I can figure out how to become one. It can't be that hard to set up. I'd also recommend a post-count minimum to access said area so Joe Blow can't come in create an account, and immediately...

    Technically, you just posted this in the member's only area. Does that mean non-members can't see it, or just can't respond to it, though? We're trying to find a way to post found deals to members, but have noticed an incursion of guests in our in-stock threads, which probably means google is...

    Where's a good place to get reasonable prices right now?

    The P220 Carry has almost identical dimensions to the 1911 Carry. Same capacity, too. Screw that. I'll just get the 1911 Nitron Carry to replace my other one and be done with it. I wonder how much it would cost to get the slide stop replaced with a stainless one....kinda like the Nightmare...

    Where's a good place to get reasonable prices right now?

    I suppose that's one advantage of living in Alaska...lol. I can carry easily for the majority of the year. We get some nice, warm summer days, shorts-weather type, but not many. Hell, last summer totally sucked. I don't think we had a day over 70 the entire summer, which is not normal at all. In...

    Where's a good place to get reasonable prices right now?

    Not sure about that. Ultras are a more compact 1911, but I don't see how you could physically make it a more narrow design and still function correctly. Found a Scorpion Carry locally for $200 more than Gunbroker. Add the $20 transfer fee and I'm still saving money. I dunno...now I'm thinking...

    Something a little different. My slow AR build

    Do you guys have a website other than Facebook? I'm going to need a few things in a week or two (or at least start ordering them) and I'd like to check your inventory and support a vendor here.

    Good week

    Cool...it looks pretty normal until you see the mag....lol. That would be a fun rifle to own.

    Where'd you find the 7.62x39?

    Where's a good place to get reasonable prices right now?

    The Scorpion does come in a Carry version, and it's a sweet pistol, but I don't like the color scheme for CC. Which I know is dumb because it's concealed...but still. I like the black guns better, basically. I like the tacops and the extreme, but don't think either comes in 4". SWSS...I don't...

    Rguns has notoriously bad customer service, and I've heard the machining isn't great, either. But...that's all what I've heard. No personal experience. Sent by my communicator

    Something a little different. My slow AR build

    Not really my thing, but cool nonetheless. Is the lack of a stock (even though you have a giant buffer tube anyway) the only thing that officially makes it a pistol? I can't go to a website and get a 10" barrel without going through NFA procedures, so I'm trying to figure this all out.....

    Where's a good place to get reasonable prices right now?

    I'm looking at getting another 1911 with tax money, but the local shops here are almost out of decent pistols. Looking at another Sig, so if anyone knows an online seller, please let me know. Also, wondering if the Sig 1911 TacOps comes in a 4" carry version.....
