    Record Breaking Night Last Night !!!

    The "women and weapons" thread has gone viral.... You should have thought of that as a way to get paid subscribers a long time ago....lol

    Those look nice. Never fired one, but have handled a few at the counter. Not real impressed with the play in the trigger...they kind of rattle back and forth and that drives me nuts. Not really a dig on the quality, just my preference for a tight trigger. But, I've heard nothing but good reports...

    I should add that I do plan on picking up a couple more lowers "just in case"....

    It's not a big deal, honestly. If I can get what I put into it I'll be happy. It was a all a learning experience for me, and now I have ideas for the next one when I can afford it. I'll probably just buy a part now and then when I have the money until eventually I have enough to build another...

    I may just try to re-sell for a bit of a profit. Now that I've done one, I already want to do things differently....lol.

    It's done...I think. For now, anyway. Is it normal for the bolt to stay open with an empty magazine inserted? If not, then I screwed something up.... Crappy phone pick, and yes, it's got fingerprints and crap all over it. I just got done assembling: Anderson Manufacturing Lower PSA Upper...

    Thanks, guys. Now that I have everything I want to build it now, not wait to order a tool...lol. I'm freakin' impatient, basically. Of course, everyone locally is out of stock, so I need to figure something out. I have a couple of friends I can call yet that build. Just haven't been able to get...

    I couldn't find a stupid AR tool to borrow. Do ya'll think I can get the castle nut on tight enough without one and without marring the crap out of it?

    Everything is here. No ammo, but hey...can't shoot without a gun, either. Now I just need some time to put it together. Maybe this weekend, maybe not. Between a wedding and my son's little league, I'm gonna be busy, dammit. Also just realized I forgot to get a tool for the castle nut. Hmm...

    Right there with you on that. No way I'm paying a buck a round. That turns into an expensive day at the range in a hurry.

    Someday soon I'll actually have all of my parts...

    Got my upper back from the shop this morning. Looks good. If I'm lucky I'll get my buffer tube/stock kit today. Then it'll all be here finally, but I'm not holding my breath. Now I just need to find some freaking ammo so I can shoot it....

    Whining or building?

    Someday soon I'll actually have all of my parts...

    If it's not one thing, it's another with this build. Or, more accurately, the parts. I have gotten everything. Except the buttstock/buffer kit. Which has been reshipped by FedEx twice because they keep fucking it up somehow. The shop I got it from called me yesterday, apologizing profusely, and...

    A couple? So what all do you have there? The only one I can make out for sure is the Sig Scorpion.

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

    No problem. I'd check your state individually. All the information I could find is outdated now on which states do and don't have these laws in place. Alaska has since 2010, but we have no local gun manufacturers, so it's kind of a moot law until someone steps up. They can't just be lowers...

    Quote a few states have similar laws in place. Pretty sure Texas already does, too. They are broadly referred to as Firearm Freedom Act laws or something that that effect. Google it and you can find a list of states that have them. I'm on my phone or I'd link you. Sent by my communicator
