    Best bang for my buck Red Dot sight

    Turns out I do have a picture- although a crappy one.

    Best bang for my buck Red Dot sight

    Not on your list, but I've been pretty pleased with the sub $50 red dots I've been using- two are PA's and one is a Bushnell. I think I got them on the Black Friday deals last year. I'm not going to war anytime soon, so I probably don't need a super expensive red dot on an AR9 or other cheap...

    Picking up a 9mm STI tactical 4.0

    Inter-hobby capital shifts aren't a problem ;) I'd sell a band saw for a new pistola if that was what I wanted at the time (and I wasn't getting totally screwed by the deal). Now a jet ski is worth a bit more than a band saw, so I guess it would require a bit more thought. I would point out...

    Africa loadout

    Yes... kids are the main reason I'm not working at Daniel Defense right now. Tried to get them to hire our company for design work and solid modeling, but they wanted someone in house.

    Picking up a 9mm STI tactical 4.0

    I see no problem- you're trading into it. Now if you were buying it, then yes, there could be a reason to sell something else. :) I'd tell you to sell the MP5K to me, but I's broke right now. But I do have someone interested in leasing-to-own my old house, so I might have free money sooner...

    Reality Check: Full auto ratings

    Because I have to post pictures of the most badass shit on the internets forums... And 99% of guys that buy Trojan Magnums don't need them either.

    AR pistol

    I built a 10.5" pistol with a flaming pig... it shoots great and has never had any issues (carbine length gas system). I have no idea how it would work without the muzzle device trapping some gas and keeping the pressure up a millisecond longer. That muzzle device also keeps you from...

    FN to release Civilian M249 SAW

    Holy crap... I'll keep saving my pennies for that MP5.

    FN to release Civilian M249 SAW

    Relative to me, that thing costs more than my primary transportation for the last six or seven years. However, I know people that buy Corvettes to decorate their garage... maybe drive it twice a year.

    FN to release Civilian M249 SAW

    I didn't know they were out for sale yet. And I'm really surprised that I got that close with my guess! ;)

    FN to release Civilian M249 SAW

    Anybody want to start guessing at the MSRP? I'm guessing around $7,499 Copied from FN's group email today: Always dreamed of your own FN M249 SAW? From the maker of the world’s most battle-proven firearms, FN brings you its all-new Military Collector series, including the FN M249S™, the...

    Aftermarket glock mags

    I bought four of the 'original' Magpul G17 mags... if they're on sale for $11, probably worth a shot. At the MSRP ($15ish ??) I'd rather just get factory Glock mags. I wasn't super impressed with the old Magpul mags persoanlly. I just wanted a few because, I guess. I'm going to stick with...

    Poly or Alum?

    He beat me to it in a much more concise fashion.

    Poly or Alum?

    I've read the forged vs. cast arguments too many times. I have designed repairs for many airplanes and I will tell you that forged only gets a small increase in strength vs. a billet part. Casting has inherent problems that are hard to overcome without a post casting heat treat/stress relief...

    Break in

    Dad's been in the benchrest community for years and years... his opinion is that the barrel break in procedure was to get guys to shoot more rounds through that barrel. I mean, benchrest competition barrels have a lifespan of 400 to 500 rounds. If you can get a guy to burn 20% of that life on...

    Dallas shooter purchased AK through FB

    I can certainly see the establishment's logic behind a decision like that... Sell the masses on the idea a private sale was behind a massacre. Except that I haven't seen anything posted that he wouldn't pass a background check. Anyone else?

    When you're trying to fake an injury, but makeup just wont do

    I assume this was a clip from a movie? Things in that picture look a bit crooked. Crooked? Is that how you spell crook-ed? Damn you'd think I'm a public school educated 8th grader.
