cold shot

I had bought the 15 round mags and G&R Tactical a couple of years ago - keep an eye out for them when they stock them again. http://www.gandrtactical.com/cgi-bin/commerce.cgi?preadd=action&key=39498&reference=/cgi-bin/commerce.cgi%3Fsearch%3Daction%26keywords%3Dmag%20not%20case%20not%20magpul%20not%20magnifier%26searchstart%3D27%26template%3DPDGCommTemplates/FullNav/SearchResult.html

This seems to be a good deal with all the features that you're looking for but it is a Canon. In my opinion, you pay for the Sony name. http://www.amazon.com/Canon-PowerShot-A2500-Stabilized-Black/dp/B00B5HE1SY/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1385934930&sr=8-1&keywords=a2500

not much info on their website - pre-orders start Dec 1,2013 http://tacfirecon.com/

From their website: 3 Mode Drop-In Trigger 3rd Mode Has a Positive Reset Characteristic Semi Auto is a Match Grade 4 1/2 Pound Pull Rate Offers Zero Take-Up & No Overtravel Components are Full EDM & CNC’d in House Components are Coated with NP3 (Nickel Teflon) 3 Mode Billet Selector Included BATFE Compliant/Non-NFA This would be a cool toy for my AR but not sure if it would end up being legal in this state ?

Or go directly to the manufacturer for a better selection. I have the Easy-Fit Original Instructor belt which is more forgiving than the Original Instructor Belt (actual belt size). http://www.thewilderness.com/tactical-belts/ These are one of the best belts out there.

Bob, Thanks for the info. I know it's a great gun and I bought it because it was from the "Pro" series which to me meant a little better than stock and shoots wonderful but I don't know if I would use a revolver for IDPA (I need to try IDPA first !). I should have thought about it before the purchase but it's water under the bridge now. Ben, Will let you know if I sell it, most likely yes than no. Ed

I have a S&W 686 SSR and wondering if it is possible to get a longer barrel for this. Also, I kind of like the "classic" look such as the 629 classic barrel. Is it possible ? If not, reluctantly, I may have to part with my 686 SSR(4" barrel) and look for either another 686 with probably a 5" or longer barrel, or another Smith Revolver model altogether. Ed

Nick, you were spot-on on the review Really enjoyed the variety of training with top notch instruction and hanging with all you guys.

I have this safe door organizer that holds a lot of pistols and gives you more shelf space http://www.sportsmansguide.com/net/cb/full-door-handgun-rack.aspx?a=691348

Yep, lives at home, eats our food, goes to college

Question for those who have kids in college - my son got his 1098-T showing his received scholarships as well as tuition paid for 2011 BUT his parents(ME) paid for his tuition. Is this going to be an issue for me to claim this since the 1098-T is under his name ?

I would never use the mags as a count for compliance and have converted as per your great instructions - just thought why not use US made Surefire 15 round mags while in NJ for the next couple of years(ugh) and be way under the total of imported parts. Thanks for the clarification

I'm a little unclear on the 922r compliant parts with respect to the magazine. If I ditch the factory magazine and use Surefire mags(US made) does that count and if so, how many points ? I noticed that the magazine body, follower and floorplate counts a 1 each individually ? Am I reading this wrong ?
