I dunno if I ever got around to posting these. Some FA fun with mipafox's FA goodies. All in PA of course

Yep! I can attest to the fun of this upper, especially in FA thanks to Ed. Only difference is mine is a 14.5" middy with a BC 1.5 I'd love to try that again

Can we get some background on this? The article (and the OP) are quite lacking. For example: why are town members disgruntled?

Took my RIA 1911 Tactical out to the range yesterday with my dad (great day to take off and go shoot). Had the entire range to ourselves, yay! Anyways, ran 150 rounds of FMJ (Remington nickel plated) and 25 rounds of JHP (Winchester X brand or something), no hiccups at all. The gun has a nice crisp trigger (typical of a 1911) and *should* be reminiscent of a series 70 Colt (never shot one of those, but thats what people have told me). Accuracy: Pistols are always a weak point for me... normally I shoot 1911s quite well (I have a Kimber TLE/RL II), but this one shot low and to the left. However, I have this thing where I suck at hitting targets, but not hitting stuff. So while I was down/left on the paper, I was able to tag water bottles hanging from string in one or two shots from 5 yards. My dad took turns with it (he's a better paper shooter than I), and he managed a nice straight vertical line. Looks to us that the POI is directly behind the front sight blade and not above as is typical on Glocks and other handguns. Overall, fun to shoot, not bad for the price. I wish I had pics, but I left my camera at home

How much does brass get per pound in scrap? Do the primers need to be removed before selling them? I've got a wide assortment of brass.... mainly .223/LCAAP 5.56, .308/7.62, 44mag, 45acp, some 30-06, .270 win, 7.62x39... I was thinking of sorting through all of it one day and organizing it (mainly cuz my dad wants his .308 casings back).

Seeing as you sold your proposed upper... this one is available, already built and good-to-go. http://njgunforums.com/forum/index.php?/topic/25275-wts-ar-15-upper-w-yhm-add-ons/

I don't get why ANJRPC and/or the SAF isn't fighting this... this should be a slam dunk case for infringement.

Is it a bayonet lug if it cannot perform the function of a bayonet lug? Is a collapsible stock still collapsible if it's pinned? We operate in a grey area here in NJ, and the lack of clarity in our State's administrative code when defining an Assault Weapon should work in my favor. I'm not really worried though, even if the lug were intact, there would be no way for a bayonet to even fit on it due to the size of the muzzle brake, and it's distance from the lug itself. It's the same reason why a carbine with a 16" barrel and a bayo lug is equally ineffective.

1. Where do people get the best deals on non-corrosive AK ammo? 2. Where is a good place to get authentic AK slings... what do they look like? 3. Does anyone have a good resource that provides information on removing the wood stock + handguards and on how to stain and refinish them? The ones on the WASR-10 are quite rough to say the least.

The bayonet lug is rendered inoperable courtesy of Old School.

Thanks! The wood that came with it is nice legit wood, I was thinking of sanding/refinishing it myself. Gotta look into what stuff to use though. BC 1.5

Remington 870 Express and a Mossberg 930 (came with a 28" field and 18" HD barrel). I kinda want to get wood stocks for the 870 though, and a side saddle. Will post pics tomorrow.

WASR-10 I picked up today... along with my BCM 14.5" middy... Now I gotta buy a Russian sling, and some 15/30 mags... does MTN armory still sell those?

Sucks dude. What were you doing to the gun?

I have two 1911s, a Kimber TLE/RL II and an RIA 1911 Tactical. Both came with FLGRs. I recently converted the FLGR to a standard GI GR and bushing on the RIA. It definitely makes the gun a bit lighter and run smoother. In the end, it's a user preference. However, most 1911 owners run the more traditional setup.

After playing BF:BC2 for months on end, my biggest complaint with that series is the lack of polish in the infantry combat. It's either ridiculously easy, or ridiculously frustrating. The matchmaking system is also a bit wonky and problematic, and the weapons customization was to be desired. I'll def get MW3, and possibly BF3... If BF3 has a decent Air-to-air combat system.

hehe, it's all yours. I'll go weeks without cleaning my guns... and sometimes never do. When I get my AK, I'm not gonna want to dick around keeping the thing clean... I mean, it is an AK...

I'd rather avoid corrosive ammo... if you can pay a little bit more to extend the life of the rifle, why not do it?

So by that logic, a UBR is ok?

Bought this recently with an Amazon gift card to store my pistol when I'm out of the house/not carrying it. It comes with 3-digit combo lock and a cable that you can attach to something tough. It's shell is made of 20ga steel and is quite sturdy, got it for $37 on Amazon with free shipping (prime membership). Inside, I was able to fit a Glock 21SF w/ a TRL 1 and a spare mag. This thing is great for storing a firearm in a bedroom or in a night stand where you keep it. It's cheaper than an electronic Gunvault, and the form factor is a lot smaller for those of us who don't have a lot of room to put such a thing. The 3 digit dial is easy to use, but would be very difficult to read at night or under stress. The unit is obviously not heat resistant or water resistant. Cable lock is very sturdy, and would be great if I had something to attach it to... Product link: http://www.amazon.com/GunVault-NV300-NanoVault-Combination-Lock/dp/B003841ZBS

To me, telescoping is the equivalent to a folding stock, where you can slide it all the way into the gun shortening it to where it's not functional or in the way. Similar to an MP5 Navy. While an AR-15 stock uses a telescoping feature, at it's minimum length, it's still a stock.

Not really. A stock on an M4 Carbine is designed for the express purpose of being adjustable. It has multiple positions to meet a certain length of pull designed for a wide variety of users. I'd love to have an adjustable stock so my gf can shoot my AR more easily.

I usually don't disassemble my handguns unless I'm doing a mod to them. Heck, even 1911s will run dirty if properly lubed.

Looks hawt, I'd buy it if I had the coin and the need. BCM is high quality stuff.
