Welcome aboard Kenny! :beer:

Love it. Not sure if any of you have researched the ecoboost motors, maybe seen Mike Rowe do the video series on the torture testing they did. Here it is on the beach on Mustang Island.

Taking it to Corpus this weekend, looking forward to some seat time in it.

I've been shooting my new bow in the yard, longest stretch I have is about 70'.

Excellent! Thanks for doing that.

Sounds like a great day smurf! Drew, not so much. Bummer.

Wow, impressive group.

The 416 pistol is indeed considered a pistol. We aren't allowed to put a buttstock on it, as it would make a short-barreled rifle, which is illegal without federal government approval.

PSC is a great place, from what I hear. Congrats Tal!

Just got my order from grabagun.com, HK416 mags.

We've got a local range in danger of closing due to nearby housing construction too.

Welcome aboard!!

Speaking of mags, I ordered six thinking my buddy was going to get one of these pistols and would want three extras, but he hasn't so I might have three to sell if anyone is looking.

No problems with rules, thanks for the offer to do this. Had any bites?

As for the traditional AR platform, I have the M&P 15-22 and the Umarex HK416, both are very nice and a ton of fun to shoot. (I understand the HK and Colt are largely the same rifle, both Umarex imports) Slightly off the traditional AR platform I have the Sig522, which is probably my favorite tactical rimfire rifle I have. Very nice equipment, great functionality. Off the shelf rifles in 22 are almost lays going to be lighter and less realistic than a true AR-15, so the best way to get the true experience of an AR-15 would be to get a conversion kit or a dedicated upper.

I like the light look

I put another hundred or more rounds through mine this past weekend. When I clean it this weekend I will be sure to take a look for this, I used Remington Golden Bullet.

LOL, of course. Downhill for my wallet, uphill for the grins.

It was hotter than holy hell, but I made it down to the range Sunday with the 416 that I had picked up on Saturday at the gun show. While I was cleaning/prepping the rifle I made note of some things. I was pretty bummed that the bolt catch was there for looks only, it is non-functional. An empty magazine will hold the bolt open though, the follower pushes a bar into place. You can also manually manipulate this bolt catch into place but I wish the external lever was real. Also, the bolt cannot be removed like with other tactical .22's by just pulling out the charging handle. It's an assembly that's bolted in. So I ran about 225 rounds through the rifle, it was a mixed bag of CCI Velocitor, CCI Mini Mag, Centurian and Federal hollow points. It is a great shooting rifle, the trigger is a little on the hard side, but not bad at all. The rifle had no feed issues at all, never hiccuped. The iron sights were off, and I neglected to bring the manual with me, so I used one of the gongs at 50 yards to find where point of aim needed to be, then with compensating I was knocking down pigs with ease. When I got home I knocked the pin out holding the front sight post and swapped it out for the shorter one that was included in the box, I just personally like the shorter one, seems less intrusive in my sight window. Next time out I will try to zero and do some accuracy testing. :thumb: :thumb:

Welcome! I started out with a Spikes Tactical conversion, then it went downhil from there. :)

Is this the indicator for the bolt speed setting? Looks to be on 'N', normal? :confused:
