Yup, that chick.

I think she thought she'd make a statement and try to move the gun community to take a stand with her against those 'crazy people'. After all, how could she possibly be wrong? It's for the Children. I saw a video of her being instructed on precision shooting - she was pretty fast, but only in...

She actually said "semi-auto's", which would include her Glock. Therefore she's already a hypocrite - likely three times over because I bet she used an AR-15, Glock, and a semi-auto shotgun in her competition. Fucking nimrod. I hope they boot her out of the next 10 competitions she tries to...

I hope she has a tough time getting a new sponsor. What kind of stupid fucking idiot anti-2A is a competition shooter? The UNEMPLOYED kind.

Wish I could hit "like" a few dozen times on that one...

No, I looked up some of his other work. Apparently he calls it the "Switchblade Trigger", and it's copper plated. One of his "signature" things. Call the Cops, somebody stole his artistic sensibility. It's all angles and the wrong color on a gun with scrollwork, gold and silver. Who let...

I really like the scrollwork engraving on the grips...nice work on an otherwise gaudy piece. The copper trigger is ugly. Just doesn't fit the rest of the gun in any way.

Careful, you're making sense - that's dangerous in some parts... Regarding the Tula ammo, or any other Russian Bi-Metal crap - you'll also have to sacrifice your barrel sooner since the other Metal in Bi-Metal is STEEL, and sending that through your bore at ++supersonic speeds tends to wear...

I guess it pays to be FTF with some folks! Either that or he thought you was purty...

Now I gotta run down there and grab it today...and I already have a full day planned. Thanks a lot! :wink: Just called them, it's $399, not $299, has the box. Dude seemed annoyed I was asking questions about it. Customer Service is dead. @Jake , it's all yours. I was seriously tempted...

I like the Micro 9. Looks like it's a STAR design, not a Colt. Good.

Three of my 1911s...Yeah, they're all 9mmP Top one with Stag grips is a Federal-Ordinance Aluminum frame from the 70's, Commander length. Someone built this thing out of unknown parts, then it changed hands probably a few times before I bought it on GB 10 years ago. Had to replace all of the...

UPDATE: So I've FINALLY got most of the parts together. I had to go several rounds of trying different barrels (sionics is STILL 4-6 weeks out, not sure they'll ever have barrels again) and eventually went with a 10.5 hybrid from Faxon with the Black River Tactical reduced port gas block. I...

Of course, I was kidding about that "proprietary" barrel. I guess I should have made that more clear. Yeah, the BRT looks like a better route than an adjustable gas block (cheaper - like ME) and less likely to get clogged with crud (again, like ME). Thanks for validating that!

So, then your barrel is, in a way, proprietary...since you can ONLY get it from them. I've got a few ARs that have larger gas ports, so then maybe THIS is the way to fix that issue - rather than replacing the barrels, since that would cost a TON and they're nowhere near their end of service...

Well, It's been a month and the Scionics barrels are STILL 4-6 weeks out of stock. I'm actually considering a Faxon, but that gas port on the 11.5" is HUGE (.110)! I did a search on Reduced Gas Port barrels and found 2 things: Scionics (what a surprise) and Black River Tactical. Apparently...

Great info. Thanks! I know now that I DO NOT want the BCM upper, just in case I ever do spend the extra $200 on the DOLOS system. The first upper I bought was a Texas Black Rifle Co. and the barrel I put in it was a VERY tight fit. Had to get the rubber mallet heavily involved on that one...

So I see that you've recommended BCM upper receivers. I've also found a BLEM upper at Scionics. I've also bought stripped uppers from other companies before, and as far as Mil-Spec uppers the only difference I've ever seen is in the spacing of the slots on the Pic rail. Why buy a Spike's or...

Shit. My purpose for this thing is an overall replacement of the Truck Rifle (for reasons first stated in this thread), back-pack EDC, possible go-to for home defense after Can is added (since it'd be the only one -at first- with a QD mount) because nobody likes losing their hearing. Beyond...

Ok, I've now done some reading about gas ports, and tried to get the gas port sizes from a few places. Scionics refused to release their gas port sizes. They actually have three 11.5" barrels, a medium weight, a lightweight (.625 gas block) and a medium weight with Reduced Gas Port. They...
