  1. Just saying..

    I've seen a Hexmag fail in a competition. Not sure if it was early or later version. Looked like it slip near the rear on top and this caused the catch to jam into the magwell. Needed to take apart to get the body out of the magwell to get it out. Scary thought if you needed to get rounds into a scumbag.

     

    That said I have three myself. No issues but fairly light usage.


  2. No you are not the only one. Been in construction management for 15+ years. Most of which has been travel. And a lot of out of state. It's easier when young and single. It got to the point where the wife needed to get use to me being home when i had off.

    For the last year I've been working close to home - it feels so different now. I'm not sure I can go back to traveling.

     

    Do what you have to do. Learn from it. Imo it's not too bad if your young. Set limits on comfort and for how long you plan to travel for and keep to it. A fellow worker had his first kid and said goodbye to the job. There are things more important than work.

     

     

     

    Due to work, I've been living out of a hotel room for over a month now.  Monday mornings, I drive the 120 miles (2hrs) to So Jersey and only come home around midnight Fri night.  Am i the only a$$hole doing this? are there others like me?  

    Hows does ur significant other deal with you being away?  I used to work 2nd shift, but since im in charge of this start up, ive been working 12+ hr days.   Any suggestions?  

     

    Also, I hate going to sleep without my G19 next to my bed. What are my options?

     


  3. Agree with previous posts.

     

    Shoot what you have. The best way to learn is to shoot. Learn more what you like and dislike and you will end up building what you really want later on. I feel from your post that if you start a new build now you really won't know what is best for you and will spend more money modifying your new build too often. Don't rush into it.

    The M&P is a good platform. Learn to sight / zero and the different ammo characteristic and trigger control.

     

    And share some Gdam pics of what you got!


  4. I'm actually thinking about throwing another ar together instead of changing what I have

    Same dilema here Shawn!

    I have a magpul furniture lower that I really like and a mixed rifle with the houge grip.

     

    I picked up the DD furniture. Bought it instantly after I had chance to hold them.

    Now I'm Not sure if I buy a new lower for the DD or swap with my houge grip lower.


  5. I also have a concord grape vine in the back that is at least 50 years old and still producing, I'm thinking about making some cuttings eventually.

     

    Those scotch bonets are great peppers if you like heat but still want flavor :)

    We have the same grapes. They make for an awesome preserve. (Jam)


  6. Good selection!

    This year we have: tomatoes, kale, strawberrys, grapes, squash and assortment of herbs and mint.

     

    No comparison to the taste of growing your own vs the supermarket.


  7. Vlad - it was a good briefing.. I made it thru the day! Thx

     

    Big thanks to all the folks who had to bear with this newbie. You guys & gal were great! I'm hooked but have prep work to do.

     

    Kevin - take Vlad's advise... There is a lot to take in at once. Start with the pistol action game - won't hurt to also watch a 3 gun match before diving in.
