Displaced Texan

I just ordered another MS4 for my Colt LE901.

Yep. That's an F-22.

I found my shotgun. 98% probability I will be there.

Maybe I am thinking of Anderson. I do confuse them sometimes.

Reputable, quality manufacturers is the key phrase. I've seen a few inexpensive 'mil spec' lowers, from popular manufacturers that were not so in spec. I get them confused....it was either Anderson or Aero Precision...but the issues I saw were the pin holes for the bolt catch were drilled too small. We were able to fix them by reaming them with the proper sized bit. The other was one of the holes for the rear takedown pin were offset. No way in hell could you push that pin through the left side. The owner of that lower is a co-worker of mine in the Texas office. He uses it as a paperweight on his desk.

EXACTLY the experience I had with my late father in law.

Nowadays, 'treatment' is putting them on meds, patting them on the ass, and sending them home. It is the up to the individual to continue with his or her med regime. Many of them just stop taking meds for one reason or another. Then they are back to square one. There is very little REAL treatment for mental illness these days.

Left late. Didn't do a drive by. My curiosity is piqued though. Crazy people are sometimes fun to watch. Lol

I'm in Princeton at the moment, I may have to drive by there later and have a look for myself!

Phases of the motor wired correctly?

I love Larue products!! You'll be hard pressed to find a more accurate upper!!

Yep, another vote for the Weber.

I live in Stratford, (on the border of Somerdale and Voorhees), they have been pretty good about permits. About 15-20 mins from Marlton.

Oooh, I may have to do that too. I do a fair amount of work in DC, and I would prefer to be carrying while I'm in town.

@High Exposure Thanks for the reccomendation of the Magpul sling and ASAP QD rear plate. Great quality gear and didn't cost a fortune!! i bought the MS4 version with 2 QD swivels. Nice sling, and very compareable to my Tactical Link sling (and 1/2 the price)!

Sorry, I don't. I'll ask a buddy if he has one.

A monkey can build a lower. If you are even the least bit handy with tools, I highly recommend it. Like Voyager astutely pointed out, building a lower will get you intimately familiar with how the rifle works. There are a lot of AR guys on this board (myself included) who would be happy to help you any way we can. Come to the dark side. We have cookies!

I don't consider the widely available AR components a 'problem'. Just requires some research on your part to determine what will work best for your particular needs. My advice is to either build or buy a basic AR. Buy mags and ammo. Shoot the crap out of it. Maybe get some training. Then, ask your buddies to try their gear, go to shops and fondle guns and gear before you spend any money on upgrades.

Then you will be well served with something like a S&W. A friend of mine has one, seems like a pretty decent rifle for the money. San Antonio is a fun city. I hope you enjoyed yourself while you were there.

When I move out of this hell hole, I'll convert them to free state configuration. My collapsible stocks can be undone. I may change the muzzle devices, it depends. Don't really care about bayonet lugs. The real big deal to me is collapsible stocks. I fail to understand why pinning a stock makes a damn bit of difference. Moronic laws. I already have a bunch of standard capacity mags at the ranch in Texas.

I have 3 Colt 6944's, a 6921, ( all pinned to 16.1" and made NJ compliant), a Colt A4 clone, and a Colt LE901. All compliant. All 100% reliable through tens of thousands of rounds.

You can get a Colt 6920 OEM for around $750. Add the furniture of your choice, and get the compliance work done. Easy-peasy. You get a high quality weapon with a reputation for reliability.

Define your use for this rifle. HD, range toy, whatever you plan to use it for. Buy or build accordingly. Personally, for a rifle used for HD, I'm sticking to the best quality parts/assembly. Something of a known/proven track record. Range toy..something I would not stake my life on...the 'tolerances' get a little looser, if you follow my meaning.

Trying to make the facts fit the hypothesis is the wrong way to go about this. Let the facts paint the picture of what really happened that night, then proceed accordingly.
