Seemed like the better option of what I found. Standard design but better materials. It's kinda what got me on a search for equivilant parts that are beyond milspec.

I have 2 spikes lowers sitting around and decided to build two identical his/hers rifles... Purpose: SHTF durability. I have most of the odds and ends figured out but 3 components im struggling with... The FCG, LPK and BCG I have an RRA 2-stage and a SSA-E installed in two AR's right now. I enjoy them both but lets be serious here, accuracy bench shooting is not the build purpose. The ALG ACT trigger seems like a good option, Milspec+ and single stage = bullet proof. any other good options? LPK.. wtf man everyone makes one and then some... Both LPK's from my last build were RRA and were great, anything out there special durability wise? BCG, nothing fancy, but again looking for solid durability/longevity. I appreciate the input... The rifles are intended to be 14.5" + comp light weight rifles that can take a beating and still run.

I have an RRA with some parts switched out, but their problem was staking the gas key... Mine was well done... Others werent even punched...lol talk about a fckup. Small detail that costed RRA its reputation.

Damn, lol. It took me a min. to figure out what a Hillary Hole is lol. I must be too young for that reference. I've been planning on removing the interlock in mine. Have heard stories of it engaging on its own while firing.

Depends, the final product is structurally similar. They are different processes but the end result is the same.

MIM parts structurally are different then tooled parts. Just like wood has a grain, so does metal. Any cast part lacks a true grain, which would give increased strength... As a result cast parts are more brittle, imperfections in the molding process can make them terribly brittle. When these companies had to keep up with demand the cost to switch over to MIM was cheaper than buying new forging presses and molds. Forged parts have a true grain, and if done correctly the grain takes on the shape of the object. If its CNC'd then the grain is planar and its weakness is splitting along the grain, cracking. Its much harder to crack this type. A press formed part requires much more machining after as well.

lol, yea, your old Revolver is most likely hand fitted. Just like my wingmaster from the 70's. Most production guns barely see a living person on the assembly line these days. My 625 has MIM parts but you would be hard pressed to make it any better by simply switching out something for a tooled part without fitting said part.

Normally, I wouldn't stick my head in a convo like this but here's my experience tracking a pistol which saw some revisions rather quickly after is production. The P938 wasn't out nearly a year before it had terrible failures with the ejector and cycling rounds. Within a year sig had the problem fixed. The MIM debate IMO is on quality. After the revisions to the pistol were made these failure nearly dissolved. I Believe they upgraded the extractor and recoil spring. I'm pretty sure its still a MIM part though. Kimbers have some bad stigma for some reason. Even when I was researching them I would find an equally amount of positive and negative reviews with reliability. It was enough to scare me away. Personally, I think gun manufactures skimp in some really important areas of firearms. It wouldn't kill them to have cut steel for things like the extractor. MIM parts require a much higher level of QC, but the companies already cut corners going MIM to begin with.

I've had to use a rope and just kept twisting it, then a good compressor to seal the bead... Works every time. I had to clean the rim cause 3 years in a row I had flats after storage.

I keep hearing how sig quality has gone down, but I've read nothing but jargon about MIM parts. Most guns now aren't just MIM but they have plastic parts aswell and are just fine.

they make a legion in .45?

I was asking about that laser target lol, but i found it.

i Still need to switch my generac over to tri-fuel..... how hard is it? I already have a 1/2in Natgas pipe coming out the hose for the grill.

Please show me where that is written.... Natural Born citizen is anyone who is given citizenship at birth, doesn't matter where on Earth it happens.

That's interesting... What is it?

Oooo good day for chili! Yummm!

This picture has so much going for it, lol.

You have zero place to assume what my thoughts are or aren't. I asked a few questions as to what people thought or believed to get a consensus of how they felt about the issue... Not sure why YOU feel the need to psychoanalyze me. I don't believe in mandatory insurance for what ever retarded reason you just stated.... Do you really think anyone will get insurance if it wasn't required? Here's how it goes for 90% of people in NJ Why do i need insurance? Some one hit me..... I'll just sue them for damages... I hit some one.... I'll just fight it in court... Heres some stats and you keep telling me how YOUR TAXES PLAN TO AFFORD THIS. 250,000 car accidents in NJ per year, THATS 250k potential civil suits I am REALLY curious how we plan on finding time in court and money. 1 in 28 persons has an accident per year. Its unrealistic to think the NJ court system is going to keep up with that volume... Don't believe me? how many f*cktarts couldn't buy legit insurance for their shore houses? Your points are heard Mipa, i get what your saying.... i just find that it does not meet NJ standards. The reality is that the law mandates insurance so that if and more likely when you destroy someone elses property or harm them you can pay the damages....

So what would your solution be when there is a civil suit over paying damages for every accident that takes place? If property is damaged regardless of damage someone is liable to pay. My insurance doesn't pay when someone hits my car, theirs pays. So if your solution is to have endless taxpayers dollars to support law suits then yeah I guess that works too. Not to mention evey accident that includes bodily injury, with big $$$ payouts.

Those thousands of uninsured motorists damage property and never pay a cent. With the amount of accidents that take place, if people carried no insurance the amount of civil suits in NJ would be unmanageable.

You don't think people should have mandatory liability insurance?

lol, I'm more pissed that I pay more to register a F*cking motobike than a car. My front plate is bungeed to the grill of my Jeep, I could care less about plates at this point. Living in NJ I wondrr why people even buy nice cars, you park it in one place and some dick off will dent it just because. A front plate? Please.... I'm more concerned with anyone of the mods on my Jeep being illegal.

When I use an ATM I always pull on the card slot to see if it moves. I learned of this scam a few years ago. Even at my bank I do it.

I thought the law stated you need to post a sign if you don't want people bringing guns onto your property. I didn't realize the law stated it was an offense to bring a gun onto property with a sign banning guns.

I don't get it... post a sign if you want, or don't. What is the big deal? Its not like people know when u conceal carry. OR take your business elsewhere.
