Wow, I wish I had known about that sale... I would have picked some up. Spkr_Bldr, you got 50?
Wanna sell me a few?
Hey Chris, check out Fusion if you're wanting another custom 1911 built. Cogan does build nice stuff too, but I think you can get a lot more gun for less money from Fusion. Bob Serva is the man there, he has as much experience as anybody ... I currently have a Fusion 10mm with a longslide and 6" barrel, and am having a Commander Bobtail frame Stainless .45 built. I also have a customized Springfield TRP with all Ed Brown internals and action work by a great local smith, and a Kimber 5" that's been worked over as well. The Fusion is still my favorite shooter, and 10mm out of a 6" barrel just rocks!
Congrats on the RRA purchase! A RRA Tactical Entry was my first AR, and 10 later it's still one of my favorites. Great quality and reliability, and the 2-stage trigger is fantastic. I put the GG&G free-float rail on it and love it. 16" carbines are supposed to be light weight, so why put a 12" rail on it? What would you ever need to mount that far forward anyway? I assume you have the standard collapsable stock, if so that $25 or so CAA cheek piece is one of the best mods you can do ... gives a great cheek weld and mounts solid. I get to run mine on full-auto occasionally as well, since I have a buddy with a couple registered full-auto lowers ... because of that I put a PRI QCB brake on it, and it really keeps it under control for a full mag. Also put a YHM flip gas-block front sight on, Bobro short front grip, and a Pentagon light. And of course some Duracoat work. I can post a pic if you'd like.
Since I'm still on the learning curve with the AR stuff, I still have some holes. What mags are best? I know there's got to be some you want to stay away from and others you absolutely have to have just like with 1911's.Wow, I wish I had known about that sale... I would have picked some up.

The ones you just HAVE to have, are Magpul's P-mags. (the one you can see in the photos of my sabre) Hands down the best mags made. Do a search on You-Tube for pmag torture test, or something like that, and find this video where they try to destroy 7 or 8 of the most popular mags with an F-150... the Pmag is the only one out of them all that stood the test. Almost indistructible, and more reliable than any mil-spec mag.Since I'm still on the learning curve with the AR stuff, I still have some holes. What mags are best?

Well, like everything else... OUT OF STOCK! OUT OF STOCK! OUT OF STOCK!The ones you just HAVE to have, are Magpul's P-mags.

If you go with a Milspec mag, i THINK (think...) you want to make sure you get the "Green" followers.
That's good stuff. I guess I shouldn't feel that bad about paying $20 per mag.
One of these would be nice for home defense.

On second thought, maybe not........ because the bullet is liable to travel through an entire block of homes before coming to rest.![]()
I went to one a couple weekends ago in Tucson and in general was not impressed with the prices. The only "deals" I saw compared to my local gun shops were on bulk ammo. I walked out of there after 2 1/2hrs of browsing empty handed.I went to a gunshow this weekend and saw some nice AR mags for $15, but didn't pick any up. I did however get a new pistol grip pump shotgun, but not from the show, the only one they had at the show was overpriced and not the finish I was looking for.
That is just outrageous! I got my 5 pmags in may-june for $11 each.... something like $56 shipped for all 5.The stuff is out there... but everyone is trying to gouge. It's infuriating. I found a place that had PMags... for $34.99 each! I mean c'mon... that's just about triple the normal price... the sad thing is... he'll likely sell out of them.
Talking with several idnivdiuals in the business... they say that the frenzy has pretty much reached it's peak... that all the people who got all crazy and got everyone around them crazy when Obama started to look like "the guy" have begun to settle down. Nothing is going to happen tomorrow like you said. Hopefully things will just shake out over the next couple of months and supplies will come back.That is just outrageous!

Honestly, If Mr. Nobama DOES decide to impliment some kind of federal ban or restriction on these types of things, the concensus is that at the EARLIEST we would see it, would be no sooner than half way through his first term, and most likely, not until his second. I think prices will start to settle back to their normal prices here before long. By summer I would imagine.
