For crap's sake! I can't even listen to that twit without getting pissed! What a waste of taxpayer money to pay her wage, to even make that idiotic video? The Black Hats must think the American public involved with firearms are blithering idiots? :confused:

Access to "that" guys recommendations can be dangerous! :grin:

Using the cartel violence in Mexico to push forward more anti-gun agenda? Say it isn't so! >:(

J.Boyette ... thanks for the info. I am familiar with the SPARC since we carry the Vortex line where I work. :thumb: Thanks for the kudos asmurff ... I likes the ODG furniture also. :beer:

Thanks buddy. :beer: The jury is still out regarding the MBUS sights? They seem a little tall and bulky for this rifle? Since it's a monolithic gas piston gun, I'm thinking it might look better with short, "micro" back up irons. I had the ODG MBUS sights already so they're better than nothing, for the time being. :confused:

Another addition to the collection ... just finished putting all the ODGRN furniture on it. Just need to decide on optics but I'm steering towards an Aimpoint T-1 on a Larue LT-660HK mount.

Oh SNAP! Busted! After posting my original, better judgement got the best of me and I had to tone it down. ;D I could work around the "no feet" thing. :confused: They have a few decent deals but nothing that really jumps right out and says "buy it or you'll be sorry"? I only looked at .45ACP and 5.56 though.

Heidi from LuckyGunner is a hottie! :dance: Watch the video and see what I mean! Just sayin' ... >:D

bdavison beat me to it ... I followed these tests closely during that period, due to the fact that I was getting ready to buy a 9mm SA pistol(which ended up being ... drumroll ... a 92FS). That pistol gave me no troubles, as long as I bathed it in olive oil on a regular basis. ;D Seriously, if I had to do it all over again, I would've bought a P226 ... it truly is a far superior designed pistol IMO. But I digress, I am a huge proponent of .45ACP for carry but that's not to say that my carry involves a 1911 pistol. I own many .45's but only one 1911. My SIG, H&K or M&P see carry duty way more than the Kimber. The LCP sees CC duty when you just can't conceal except for a pocket holster ... for the record, I don't feel comfortable with the little .380 but it's better than nothing.

Thanks buddy ... good driving! >:D

Are we talking pivot pin detent? I have a great trick for those! Trade secret from the armorer at "Black-Rifles-R-Us"! >:D

I guess we'll have to agree to disagree on the first point. I will be happy to put my .45 marksmanship skills up to the test, whatever that test may be. As to my second point, 28gr x 8 = 224gr. Just following the weight limit rules you initially set? My 5.7 holds 20 or 30rds, depending on which mags I have in it. I do agree it is a little bulky for a CC. I usually carry it in my OGIO Flight vest when on the m/c or on my back pack waist strap when hiking; open carry in that instance. We have big cats and now Canadian Grey wolves up here in the NW ... I'm not taking any chances with either. :grin:

I'm sure your builds come out PURE ... already know your OCD carries over to your gun hobby! :beer:

If it's issue and carry handle mounted, it's probably a TA01. Nice optic for sure. http://www.rainierarms.com/?page=shop/detail&product_id=280

I understand your scenario and would still choose the single .45ACP ... you have to be confident in your shooting skills to carry a .45 in the first place, given the quantity limitations of the magazines of most .45's compared to smaller/lesser calibers. I have friends with combat experience that are all about the 9mm just for higher ammo capacities ... "more is better and too much ain't enough" theory. I'll still take my .45's for civi carry duty. Another alternative would be the FNH FiveseveN pistol. I carry SS192 HP's in mine and they are 28gr each ... that gives me 8rds of hi-velocity hollow points to throw into the mix at 224gr total. I'd say that would be a pretty formidable weapon/ammo combo in this discussion? ;D

Hahahaha ... good purchase D! I use mine almost every day. Be sure and put some painters tape on the receiver protrusion above the mag catch if you drive that bolt catch pin out, or else it'll scratch your lower! :o

Agreed Micro ... I can't say I'd fire-lap any of my guns, rimfire or otherwise. I might try it on a bore that had some issues, just to see if it cleaned it up any? :confused:

Real good write-up bdavison. Let us know what you think of it after some range time. Mine is still giving me some trouble, but it's starting to be more reliable after some tweaking. :thumb:

I gotta go with the .45ACP on this one ... just for sheer trauma and wound cavity. The Speer 230 GDHP's I carry are plenty hot with plenty of penetration, even with multiple layers of clothing. I stagger 2 GD's to 1 FMJ in all my PP/carry mags during the winter months for added penetration through winter clothing ... JIC. :grin:

Those pricks at B of A aren't going to hold you responsible I hope? That outfit is as criminal as the bastards that tried to work the CC fraud angle in the first place! May the crooks get hit by a truck ... TWICE! >:(

I likes the Rifleman's Creed one too ... pretty cool! :thumb:

Gobble, Gobble to all the cool peeps at T22 ... time to gorge on bird, fixins and PIE! :beer:

The lapping compounds are so fine on that system that it would literally take 1000's of rounds to even start to damage the rifling edges. The system only uses 100rds and they progress from "coarse" to "super-fine", so it'd be unlikely that it could cause any damage to a good bore. :confused:

Who said anything about an A2 upper? :confused: I was referring to the furniture.

Nothing is "out of the question" as long as the WA State Lottery exists! I play almost everytime the prize reaches over 3 mil! >:D
