I want to build a 20" bull barrel 5.56 next, and the Gold trigger is most def going in THAT.

My neighbor (quiet Doctor, whom you'd NEVER suspect was into guns...actually...he's a divorced father of 3 that keeps to himself) came over last night as I was rebuilding the forks on the YZ and saw the pistol AR on the counter. He asked some very pointed questions, and acknowledged the optics correctly. I was shocked. Dude's lived next to me for 4 years and is only NOW trusting me enough to talk about his stash.

Dude's rockin 5 AR's and 15k rounds of ammo, and recently purchased some night vision. I'm going over tonight to check it out, coupled with his lasers and my pistol (has a NV setting) I'm quite certain my wife will HATE this dude by the end of the week (Baby can I PLEASE have $3500 for some NV goggles?)

So now we have 3 "Tackleberrys" on my street in a row! I pity the fool who comes down our little road.

Have you seen the "brace" Sig Sauer just got ATF approval to make? If the price is right, it looks like a nice stop gap until your stamp comes in.

I put a Geissle SD3G in my steel challenge m&p 15-22 and that thing is amazing. If you have a dealer near, try the SD-E out.

This as well. I love my 15-22, and with my can coming in, it will likely see more action than the rest of my AR's. And I'd LOVE to have a good trigger on it!

BIG thanks!

lol, my next door neighbor fancy s himself a gun head, has SCAR 308 and AK, think he's fired the AK 1x in 3 yrs cuz it's a collector piece, and the scar a few times in 2yrs, D has fired our AR more times in the last 4 weeks then he's ever shot both weapons combined, lol

then there's handguns, buying another 500 rds of 9 tonight to replace what we've shot in the last 3-4 weeks

need to find cheap AR round s to replenish as well

Reminds me of a guy I work with, he builds all kinds of different AKs. Bought all kinds of tools to do a lot of the work himself. I forget how many he has now, but it's a fuck ton. However, he basically owns almost no ammo. He shoots them a few times after he builds them to make sure everything works properly and sight them, but after that they pretty much go on display. He just likes building them.

I understand I have a small collection. I enjoy building AKs My self, because unlike ARs they are not Plug and Play Lego sets. I know I have done more Ak's for friends than I am ever likely to own. I will sat though I am disgusted by the Market right now. I mean 799 for a Romanian? When I think of how many of those I put together on one hundred dollar kits and $50 dollar receivers, either not charging my buddies or or feelling guilty charging a $100 to do the build.

Plus when you run out of bullets, you can beat your enemy to death with it.
