Every time I see a Sully stock I kick myself for not building another AR to put one on already :oops: Nice lookin AR, Tosser

Very nice guns (and pics!). I've gotta admit, I was never a huge fan of the ACE stocks, but the more I see them, the more they're growing on me. I particularly like how you wrapped the upper portion in paracord! I know a lot of this is personal preference, but isn't that VFG on the M&P a little too far back? Seems like it might get in the way of a quick reload

Seems like you unfortunately ran into a group of morons. Not all AR owners (yes, I am one) are pricks That's not to say I'm not a prick - I am.. but it has nothing to do with my AR Seriously tho, ARs have their place, as do Garands and 1903s and any numbers of other rifles. A Garand is definitely in my future. I think most of us would agree, that if money was not an issue, we'd all have tons of different rifles just for the sake of having them.

Another vote for Greece - just be aware that things in europe aren't that cheap anymore since the switch to the euro..

I could be mistaken about this, but I vaguely remember reading on another forum, that Henderson Defense will modify AK mags to hold 15 rnds. May be worth shooting them an email or giving them a call to see if they'll do it

I'm gonna sound like a broken record again, but, don't forget all the online retailers. I can usually find 1000 rounds of 9mm within 10 minutes of cruising the online ammo places. It may not always be the specific brand I'm looking for, and some places won't ship to Jersey, but it's out there if you take the time to look.

Realistically, it's going to take a atleast 30 days to get your FID. And then once you get it, you still have 90 days to use your purchase permit, and if you want, you can extend that for another 90. You probably aren't going to want to wait 6 months after getting you FID to get a gun, but, truthfully, if you really like the XD, then use the time it's going to take for your FID to come in and however long you can wait after that to try and save a few more bucks. There's a reason XDs and Glocks and S&Ws and Sigs and Berettas and HKs cost more - they're better guns. If I could only buy one gun, I'd make sure to buy a really good one. And, personally, I wouldn't put KelTec or HiPoint in the "really good" category. Just my 2 cents

Congrats! From everything I've read S&W makes some good ARs. Enjoy it, and def pick up a few mags from Paul

I think he's referring to a painted green tip, Chad. Generally speaking, references to 62gr green tip are m855 like bbk said. Copy/Paste from the web: "The cartridge is used by the M249 machine gun and the M16A2/A3/A4 and M4-series weapons. The cartridge is intended for use against personnel and unarmored targets. This is a training standard item used in both training and combat. The M855 cartridge has a 62-grain, gilded metal-jacketed, lead alloy core bullet with a steel penetrator. The primer and case are waterproof. This ammunition should not be used in the M16A1 except under emergency conditions, and only at targets less than 90 meters in distance. (The twist of the M16A1 rifling is not sufficient to stabilize the longer projectile of the round). The cartridge is identified by a green bullet tip." No clue on legality - it's definitely an FMJ, but I don't know if the "steel penetrator" makes it something else. From everything I've read on M855, it is actually NOT armor piercing, regardless of the "penetrator". According to a wiki page, one of the requirements of some earlier versions of this bullet was to penetrate NATO steel helmets, which is probably where the whole "armor piercing" thing comes from. But, it's a wiki, so who knows how accurate that is

yes it is. I have 2 Mustang Notchbacks Very nice - I used to have an '89 GT back in the day.. but alas, she is no more. Anyway, welcome again

Welcome! Also from Essex Is your name a Mustang reference?

I believe Jen is the one that posts here.

If the one's you saw at Tip's are like the ones I bought from them, they are not like the current PMAGs PK90 is selling. They are 30 round bodies chopped down to hold 15 rnds. I have a couple.. they're nice.. but not worth 40 bux in my opinion. You're much better off going with PK90's current batch (20 round body modified to hold 15 rounds).

Regarding the P22 - I bought it try and get the wife into shooting... hence the digital pink camo Truthfully, i havent even shot it yet. she's done about 100 rounds thru it (CCI) without any issues and seems to really like it. But she also has nothing to compare it to, as it's the only handgun she's ever fired. From handling it, it's ok - it feels a little like a toy to me. The sights seem adequate for plinking on the range, but not much more. I have slightly longish fingers, so, it does feel very small in my hands. I think as long as you don't expect too much from it, you'll be fine.

Thanks for the info Wolfy - much appreciated

Thanks Wolfy! I actually didn't know about that model - I'm guessing the "Pro Series" are a little pricier that other models?

Have: Glock 19 S&W M&P9 Walther P22 (in digital pink camo ) Want: HK P7M8 Browning HiPower S&W snub nosed revolver (havent figured out which yet) Taurus Judge Ruger 22/45 Sig P226 Beretta 92F and maybe something in .380 Walther P99 (thanks to Maciej's pix lol) :mrgreen:

The funny thing with Beck, is that I actually agree with most of what he says. I just don't always care for how he presents himself. Anyway, this thread is about the 4th and I should've left my opinions out of it So, Happy July 4th everyone!

It has rail "ladders" instead of covers at the moment - hard to see them in the pic tho.

Daniel Defense M4 - pinned MOE stock - pinned/welded PWS FSC556 compensator - Magpul MIAD grip - Arms-and-Ammo PERMANENTLY MODIFIED 15rnd PMag - BlueForceGear UDC sling.

The 6400C is prob a better choice for ban-states. The tricky thing with the 6920/21, even after you pull off the banned bits and pieces, are all the LE markings on the lowers. While I don't know if that necessarily makes them in illegal in NJ, I would hate to have to make that argument "yes, I know it says Law Enforcement only on it, but, no, I'm not in law enforcement" - thanks but no thanks I'm sure you'll be very happy with the 6400

Even tho I think Beck is an opportunist and more than a little sensationalistic, there are some excellent points brought up here. Thanks for sharing njpilot

I've made 2 purchases on GB - one for a handgun and another for some AR mags. Both deals went smoothly for me. Like any other auction site, Caveat Emptor - Let the Buyer Beware. Do your research on the seller and trust your gut. If something feels off, it probably is. Ask any questions before placing a bid. If you don't get the answers you want, move onto another auction. And as far as ammo goes, make sure you're buying factory loaded ammo and not ammo some dude is reloading in his basement.

When I was younger, my dream gun was the P7... the one you scored is absolutely beautiful! Congrats!

Have you tried looking for ammo online? http://ltdammo.com/index.php?main_page= ... ucts_id=60 http://www.palmettostatearmory.com/375.php http://www.aimsurplus.com/acatalog/copy_of_9mm.html Lot of people dont like Wolf or Brown Bear (or anything Russian), so the Federal AE might be the way to go, even tho it's pricier. Very nice Walther BTW! I may have to add that one to the "future purchases" list
