Turbotezza

Managed to find one at a pre-crazy price. Unfortunately, this is the last one he had. This isn't a gun for people with small or medium hands as the mags hold 15 rounds in double stack. My hands are marginal, even with the small backstrap (swapable) on. Speaking of which, the moulded checkering on the frame and backstrap is super aggressive and provides excellent grip. I've ordered a smooth backstrap which should make the grip circumference a little smaller. Range time next week.

Just got my FNX-45 (non-tactical) today. I managed to find a dealer who still had this at the pre-crazy price. He didn't have the Tactical in stock and I couldn't justify the extra $600 to buy one elsewhere at the current price. Just wish that the regular version had the mountsfor the electronic sights on the slide.

Nice. Thanks for posting.

The lady behind the counter at the DMV is technically a government offcial.

I believe this policy applies to corporate owned stores. It would be up to the owner in franchised stores.

Actually, it is used to show that the gun is unchambered. Useful at the range.

Maybe they don't ship handgun ammo to NJ.

Midway doesn't ship to NJ

All gone with the wind!!

As described. Excellent transaction.

Dowel to limit the capacity and pin to ensure the baseplate isn't removable. I also pour epoxy into the body and let it settle at the bottom.

You will need to dowel AND pin to make it permanent. The base plate should not be removable without rendering the mag permanently unoperable.

Shhh.... Don't let VladT hear you.

The media is trying to help the Libs push through though their AWB agenda. I'll bet they have been directed to report any kind shooting where they can include "Assault weapon" in the report.

That 1911 frame was 3D printed me thinks.

I'm not questioning the fit and finish. I'm questioning what stuff they used to finish the receivers with.

I'm seeing $11 per box at some places now.

So buying top shelf stuff automatically makes you a snob?

First I must say that I've never handled a RGuns product before. However, I hope that their colored anodizing is more than the run-of-the-mill sort you see on regular aluminum parts. Cuz, that sort of anodizing won't stand up to firearm sort of wear.

I've deleted "Gouging" from the title as it was probably not the correct word to use in this case.

Ok I added profiteering the title. Although some people bitched about the price increase, the thing that set many people off was that after a few hours of selling the lowers at $150, AP decided to change their stock status to "Out-of-stock", only to become "In-stock" again an hour or so lat er at $200.

OK "gouging" was probably not the correct wording to use, so I've deleted it As many of you guys know Aero Precision (AP) is a company in WA that actually does the actual machining upper and lower receivers. I've had the lowers and uppers and must say their quality is first rate. They have an online store and also supply to others like Brownells, AIM Surplus etc. Like everybody in the business they were swamped with orders and quickly ran out of lowers sometime in early late Dec 2012 or early 2013. They A few days ago they sent an email to previous customers that a new run of stripped lowers would be available for purchace on the website on 1/16. Dispite previously saying they wouldn't increase prices, they did raise the price to $150 (from $99) they posted on their FB page and I quote; "Due to our rising costs from hiring more staff,working longer hours, having material expedited, and purchasing new equipment we had to raise our prices." Some people bitched on the FB page, but it looked like most bought AP's excuse. Ok so 1/16 (today) rolls around and of couse the AP site gets swamped people trying to get their order in. More bitching on FB, with people saying that AP should have seen this coming etc. Then they start raising price again. This post by a poster on FB sums it all up! "Seriously? Aero can go fugg themselves! First, you say you won't raise prices, then you announce an "unexpected increase" to $150 due to expediting, new machines, etc, like those suddenly came out of nowhere. However, I will give that $150 isn't awful right now, so I was going to buy a couple. BUT THEN CAME TODAY!!!!!! You price them at $150 and have no way to service the frenzy you created, website crashes, you say you're out of stock. Ok, that was bs, but we'll call it being unprepared on your part. NOW SUDDENLY YOU HAVE THEM IN STOCK AGAIN, BUT THEY'RE $200? fugg YOU!!!! That is nothing but complete bs. You can't say you're sold out, and then suddenly they re-appear minutes later at a higher price. All of the firearm forums are already lit up with this and you just messed yourself for future business. I'm sure you'll sell out of what you have left at $200 (not to me) because people are desperate right now, but you can be sure people will remember this in the future and even give you a second thought. I hope it's worth it." Some poor guys who were in the process of checking out at the old ($150) price, only to find out the lowers were suddenly out of stock and when they tried to do the process, the price has changed to $200.
