I am using the KCI G19 mags. Loaded to 15, it is impossible. At 14 it's tough but will go, they are even tough when empty. It's either the mags or a problem with the lower.

I believe this only applies to handguns. You can stop wherever you want with a long gun as long as you have a nj fid.

Me too!! I just hope to find the time to work out the kinks before 1st Sunday steel. Sounds like I got some work to do. I'm going to try and get out a little today or tomorrow and mess with it. Thanks for the tips. Another thing, The mags seem really tough to insert, almost impossible on a closed bolt. Am I missing something here or could it be the KCI mags?

Welcome

Well, here it is. All complete. Took it out for a little test yesterday. It ran great with the exception of problems with the bolt locking back halfway through mags and not locking back on an empty mag. That problem was most likely caused by me. The lower comes with a shorter and lighter spring for the bolt release which I proceded to launch into the garage somewhere. I installed a standard spring and gave it a shot but, that's not going to work. This morning, I decided to give the garage a good cleaning, man my wife was shocked and impressed that I was cleaning something without 2 months of nagging me to do it. (she'll never know the real reason I wanted to clean the garage). Anyway, 5 hours later, I found the spring. I installed it but, won't get a chance to test it out today. Hopefully, this solves the problem.

Thanks, Ray. That's the plan.

I did. Decided on Remington, mainly because of the safety.

That's definitely the way I'm leaning.

Nice to have you there, Lisa. Now that you know the Ruger is fine, Practice, Practice, Practice!!!

Great match today. Had a blast. Thanks, Iggy!!! See you next month.

Welcome!!! Just remember, AR's are like potato chips...

Actually, the 887 is a pump. The 11-87 is semi-auto. I'm not crazy about the looks either but, the price was decent. I agree, the extra "tactical" stuff is not necessary for middle of the night duty.

I want to pick up a shotgun for my bedroom closet. I was looking at the 870 Express synthetic and the Express Tactical. For me, I don't see the Tactical as being worth that much more. Yesterday, I stopped to pick up an AR lower and saw the 887 Nitro-Mag. I can pick it up for about $400. Is there any reaso, other than looks not to get the 887? 870 Express 870 Express Tactical 887 Nitro-Mag

I'll bet her arms are tired! SUFFER!!!! I put it together this morning. I'm going to test it after OBRAMS.

Very nice!!

It is. This is OBRAMS. Old Bridge Rimfire Action Match Shooters. It's like USPSA with rimfire. I'm starting to get jealous of all these vacations!

Next month is the big multi gun match. You're starting to sound like Joe. Out of town, working, blah, blah, blah.

I'm in. The practice stage sounds good.
