  1. So here in Jax Costco has run out of water the last 2 days and gas is starting to be an issue. Hoping that bitch turns east and out to sea. Behind that is Juan so will have to see how that tracks also....


  2. So been looking at the Larue Ultimate Upper sale. I really don't need another AR, but the 6.5 Grendal has my interest. Has anyone shot the 6.5 at distance? My 6.5x47 bolt gun is amazing so was thinking of the Grendal for a small frame AR out to 800+.

     

    Thanks,

    Jimmy


  3. My father landed there that day. He never talked about it until I joined the Navy. Always chocked up when we talked. I have his medals, Africa, Sicily, Anzio and then Occupation. They are the greatest generation, but we have a great generation now that has been at war for 16 years. The greatest always step up to do there duty. God bless all of those who serve.

  4. If you go the custom route pick your builder carefully and talk to them about what they recommend in parts. Some of the better smiths out there may take 6 months to a year. I had a 6.5x47 built by Robert Gradous and I got it in 6 months only because I told him I had a class to do, so he rushed it for me. I had the action and stock and he supplied the rest. 


  5. While DD makes a nice rifle, they aren't close in spec to "real" Mk12s. About all the have in common is the 18" barrel with rifle length gas. If you want something as close to spec as possible try here:

    That is for the Mod 0. They also make a Mod 1. The gentleman who runs this shop used to work for Crane. They have very good customer service also. They are not cheap but of high quality. The BCM option mentioned above is also good as I have never had a problem with anything BCM. 

     

    Again it all matters how close you want to be to "original"

     

    I wouldn't hesitate to buy a DD, I have a MK18 of theirs and am very happy with it.


  6. If the LC9S trigger is nice, how is the recoil?  I've heard the LC9 is uncomfortable at best.

     

     

    Recoil isn't bad. I use the extended magazine butt plate to get better purchase. I carry it with 124 gr. Gold dots and it doesn't feel bad at all. Not as nice as a 1911, but manageable and conceals easier them my DW Eco.
