Welcome. Lots of info here.

If the gun is for display, it would bother me. My guns are for shooting, they're going to get scratched and scuffed from holstering and use. I was careful with my TRP the first few times I stripped it down. Now, I just slap it together, scratches be damned.

Glad I went to the Black Friday sale at East Brunswick Sportsman instead. They didn't have what I wanted in stock but, ordered it and I got if for $50 less than Dick's price. No lines either.

Good to see you as well. Looking forward to Sunday. I remember guns at Sears, Kmart, and Two Guys when I was a kid. I ordered the Galaxy from Best Buy when I got home.

Dickd in Freehold is mobbed. Lots of 870's in stock. Unfortunately, the ones I want are not on sale.

No, they are 10 rounders with CW Accessories long aluminum base plate. I have the +4 followers but, they didn't work too well for me so I removed them. I'll give them another try after the gun is well broken in. And yes, the guns and mags are the same. I have read about people using the +4 followers and a +1 base plate for 15 round mags. They seem to work for some and not for others.

The gun did just fine, the shooter, not so much. It had a couple misfeeds, and a few times I accidently engaged the safety. I have to find a fix for that, the safety engages way to easy. I definitely prefer it over the M&P 22 I had been using. This one will be sticking around for many many thousands of rounds.

Maks, did you get my pm about the S&W 1911 9mm?

A little more to it than that. http://www.nj.com/south/index.ssf/2009/01/state_police_seize_largest_cac.html

Yes he does. I went with the DDLES 9mm Glock lower and pieced together an upper from parts from JSE Surplus. I had it out for knockdown steel last week and it ran really well except for the bolt hold open function. I have been having trouble adjusting that feature so I removed it. JonF has the same lower and has not had any trouble with the bolt hold open. Even with the issue I have been having, I am really enjoying this AR. Cheap and easily available Glock G19 mags make it all worth it. http://njgunforums.c...__fromsearch__1 I have also seen quite a few guys shooting the Olympic Arms K9-GL, also seems to run really well and uses Glock mags.

Has anyone had any luck changing the mag release? I tried to install a Wilson extended mag release and it does not fit. The mag release itself does not sit flush with the frame and the mag catch lock from the factory mag release does not fit in the Wilson mag release.

Yes Thanks. Where have you been? I thought that I liked the flat better but, after playing around with a few different guns, I find the arched to be more comfortable and more natural. Also helps me reach the mag release. Unfortunately, it was happening at random places in the mag. 2nd round, 6th round, 12th etc. From everything I have read about them, they work for some people and not for others. Not that big of a deal. Can only load 10 for OBRAMS anyway, and if I need more than 10 for steel, I'm in for a long day. No. They shortened the follower by about an inch. A different spring would probably help.

I got them because the stock base pads are very cheap and fragile. One good hit on a cold day and they crack. I was going to order the short ones but, they were out of stock at the time so I got the longs and they are solid and pretty heavy. They should work out just fine. Also gives me something to grab onto if I have to rip a mag out.
