New Handguard. Troy/VTAC Alpha 11"

Where to find straight 15/20 PMAGs?
If you have 2 of either type (with or without ranger) we can make a trade.

Where to find straight 15/20 PMAGs?
Ill make the same offer. I have 2 straight Midwest PX 15/20 that are FDE if you want to trade for 2 curved 15/20, preferably black.

Where to find straight 15/20 PMAGs?
Those are the Gen 2 20 round Pmags. The Gen3 20 round Pmags are now curved. There really is no difference but if the small curve bothers you then you can try looking for Gen 2 mags blocked to 15 floating around somewhere. PM MidwestPX or post in his forum ( http://njgunforums.com/forum/index.php/forum/107-midwest-px/ )and ask if he may have a few floating around still.

Midwest Industries Handguard
Yeah its not too much work at all

Midwest Industries Handguard
Yeah I can use stuff from the FD. I already have cold blue, just need to get some high temp paint. I chopped off the bayonet lug myself when the upper came from BCM so I am comfortable chopping the A2 post.

9mm Ammo Questions
Just for me to clarify, I am not saying I would completely stay away from re manufactured ammo, I have shot many boxes through my guns before I started reloading myself. Just here and there you may hear a few stories of bad re manufactured. A lot of the common re manufacturers can be pretty reliable such as the ones DSD mentioned

9mm Ammo Questions
I have used bulkammo.com before for ammo purchases without issues. Generally it is best to avoid most re manufactured ammunition from these sites as there are a few horror stores floating around about case failures, apparent double charges or squib shots that end bad. You are pretty much safe ordering the large factory brands (Federal, Winchester, Remington, PMC, Blazer Brass). Some ammo runs more dirty then others, but generally, as long as your not running +p+ loads (overpressure ammo) or something crazy, factory ordered ammunition wont have any adverse effects over the lifespan of a firearm. When ordering factory ammo for blasting I'm usually comfortable going with PMC or Blazer Brass and order at least 1k at a time. The biggest thing your gonna see is the more you order, the less you will pay. The reason that you are paying a lot a the range is because if you show up with no ammo you have to buy from them. Ranges normally try to turn large profits on ammunition sales.

Glock upgrades
I bought a used Gen 3 G35 from a friend. Only thing I did was put new sights on that I prefer and since I do not like the grip on the Gen 3 I added some Talon Grips. That is all.
-
Midwest Industries Handguard
After much agonizing debate in my head I finally purchased the Troy/Vtac Alpha. Just visually prefer the slotted over the round holes for some reason. But basically maintains the same functionality.
-
How much ammo is enough ammo!
I try to keep at a minimum 1k rounds on hand of my main calibers (9mm, .40 and .223). And being that I reload, I try to keep at least another 1k of supplies on hand for each of my main calibers. I have had up to 4k of each at one point.

Midwest Industries Handguard
I have so much money burning a hole in my pocket right now that I dont know what to do with it......oh wait....no I dont. Haha, this is a result of the problem of working 60 hour weeks and just sitting there looking at stuff to spend money on all night. But alas, you are right. Why bother with a no frills gun. If I get keyboard happy and order an Alpha tonight I will let you know

Midwest Industries Handguard
Hmmm...Mid.... PM Inbound.

Midwest Industries Handguard
Changed my mind, gonna run it with this handguard http://www.midwestindustriesinc.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=category.display&category_ID=1210 Gonna keep this rifle simple, leave the front A2 sight on and make this into a no frills gun. The next build that I am starting soon may go with the Alpha

Midwest Industries Handguard
No problem, I didnt think so. Troy Alpha it is then. Good deal, shoot me a text or call when your back in the area.
-
Midwest Industries Handguard
Yeah that's probably my first option as a backup if i cannot get the MI hand guard I want to work. What are the viable options for weapon light mounts on the Alpha guards?
-
Midwest Industries Handguard
Of course your in Florida now.....haha The issue with that is that the 2 piece gas blocks are not small enough to fit under the MI rails that I am looking at. The alpha is one of the backup options I am looking at.
-
Midwest Industries Handguard
So for anyone that can help let me know if this is possible. I currently have my 14.5 BCM Middy upper with the PWS FSC pinned and welded on. I want to swap out my Magpul handguard for a Midwest Industries M-Lok or Keymod free-float guard. The barrel is a .625 diameter and has an A2 front sight post on it. Since the muzzle device is welded on I cannot remove or install a new gas block. I do not think it is possible, but does anyone know if you can cut down a .625 diameter A2 front sight post low enough to slide the proprietary barrel nut over that the Midwest Industries hand guards use? If not I will just have to look at options that use stock barrel nuts for mounting.

Forgot to read? http://njgunforums.com/forum/index.php/topic/10555-ar-pics-lets-seeum/?p=955539 In other news, here's where my build is at currently. About to start #2 as an spr type build. Same as I previously posted a few months back, just changed the stock and changed all the furniture to black. Spikes Lower ACE ARFX-E Stock w/ DPMS Spacer (Paracord wrapped) BCM 14.5" Midlength Upper Aimpoint PRO

SuperSixOne (my friend), took the suggestion from me on the stock setup. It's an ACE ARFX-E entry stock with a DPMS 1 inch extension to give it a little extra length. I wrapped mine in black Paracord

Show us your reloading/gunsmithing bench
My current small setup, don't have much room in my current living situation so for a compact setup this works quite well. I do plan on expanding a setup once I have a basement or garage to take over. Not really useful for Ideas for you, but if your building one, cant get simpler then 2x4's with 3/4" ply top. It's a little messy right now, I just finished my first ever 308 handloads for 308 m1 garand that I now have to get to the range to test. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
