NJ Passes public workers health/pension reform
I'm on your side....the shame is when I started teaching and the economy was "good" people made fun of me because I'd never make any money...when the economy went to "sh*t" I became the cause of the problem...don't know how that happened

NJ Passes public workers health/pension reform
It's a great move by the RepubliCrats...keep the middle class arguing over pennies while they make millions...I wonder what will happen?

This is what happens when science meets politics
The only people who can carry in Jersey are police officers...are they suggesting more cops are alcoholics? I bet everyone who has used cocaine has had a peanut butter and jelly sandwich...could there possibly be a link?

gunsmithing
I wasn't 100% sure about the tig welding and arms and ammo's price beats it anyway. I thought I heard somewhere silver solder wasn't considered permanently attached but I could be wrong. Seems everyone is always happy with A&A's work so he'll get my business this time. He was going to get my business originally until I saw he was 2 hours away, but I'll mail it to him and he'll either mail it back or I'll take a ride down there and see what he has in stock...might lead me to spend more money haha.

gunsmithing
Prob going to mail it to arms and ammo. Talked to then on the phone today. Armament wanted $140 for the brake and lug. JetAgent wanted $60 but it was to tig weld the brake which I wasn't sure about. Everything I've read says pinned and welded. Arms and ammo wanted $30 for the brake and $10 for the lug. He wins and with shipping won't cost me too much. Prob about $60 when all is done but I may not have him ship it back I may drive down to pick it up so I can check out the shop. Starting next Tuesday I'll have some time on my hands since I'm a teacher and the year ends Monday.

Falling skies Premier tonight at 9PM!
I didn't think it was too bad although an hour worth of tv with an hour worth of commercials is no where near a 2 hour premiere. That many commercial breaks is enough to turn anyone off of a show. That was the worst part of the experience.

Palmetto state armory
They have great customer service. I ordered a lower receiver from them and will prob order one of their lower build kits. They defKnutson have the right idea with offering great customer service. I must also say BCM has great customer service as well. They called to confirm shipment because my mailing address was different them my billing address. Definitely another great company

gunsmithing
I live in Lyndhurst. Does anyone know a place close to me that can grind a bayo lug off and pin a muzzle brake? Arms and Ammo is 2 hours away or I'd give him the business. Would like to find a place close that isn't going to kill me with the price. Should have my new upper by midweek. Any help is appreciated.

ordering through an FFL
Excellent thanks for the help

Awesome gun junky day!
Nothing better than a new firearm. I took a day off from work after getting my 590 just because I was so excited to shoot it haha. Congrats on the new purchase.

ordering through an FFL
Wanted to take advantage of PSA's father's day sale. They have lower receivers for $50. Does anyone know how you order this. I've never ordered online. I was planning on using the True Value in Lincoln Park. I called them and they said I just order it and then call them in a week or so. On PSA's website it says have the FFL fax them the license. Anyone ordered from PSA and can help me out? Thanks in advance for the help

BCM 16" Middy
Same comp I have...looks pretty sick...wasn't sure if it was worth spending a lot more on a different brake

BCM 16" Middy
Was about to order the Carbine length and give up waiting when I got an email that the 16" middies were back in stock. I'm now waiting on the shipping confirmation for the upper and a gunfighter charging handle. This is the start of my build that I'm hoping to complete by the end of the summer (if not sooner). Probably going to order a Magpul MOE kit from dsgarms when they come back in stock. Don't know what BCG I'm going to go with since BCM's are never in stock. Heard aimsurplus has Daniel Defense BCG's back in stock so I may jump on that. the lower will probably be Spikes. Don't know what LPK kit to go with so I'm open for suggestions...was thinking PSA for price alone, and I've heard they make a good product. I'm open for suggestions so let me hear them...that's why I'm on a forum anyway haha for those looking for the 16" middy here's the link BCM 16" Middy Will probably be picking your brains a lot. Going to need someone to permanently attach the brake (I have a yhm phantom good? yes/no? why?), grind the lug and pin the stock. I heard Paul at Arms and Ammo does a great job. Might try to pin the stock myself and save some loot. I may look for some help assembling the lower since this is my first time. Will ask for help when I get to that point.

The show is pretty good. I love seeing all the interesting things they find. My favorite piece they sold was the carved skull from Tibet...that thing was awesome. Keep up the good work.

Bravo Company
I'm going to give them a call and find out. That may be an option too. Are the comps/brakes BCM sells that much better than the yhm phantom I already have?
-
Bravo Company
I just need to sign up for a paid membership so I can sell the brake. I also have a speedfeed stock for a mossy 590 I want to get rid of.

Bravo Company
Okay so two more questions. Say I go with the 14.5 midlength...regular or lightweight barrel? What comp/brake do I out on it?
-
Bravo Company
Haha good advice. I'm only 5'9" with average arms for my height I suppose.

Wow man you're really selling me on this...intended purpose is some range time, possibly home defense although I do have the 12 gauge for that...I doubt it'll do any hunting...mostly it's just for fun...I've always liked the platform and I've been dying to build one since I heard you could build them...my problem with the 14.5" middy is the extra $110 you have to spend on the flash hider...in the greater scheme of things I guess it's not a lot but I have a perfectly good YHM Phantom brake sitting on my desk right now (long story) so I feel like it's wasting money on something I have that could be better spent on other parts of the rifle...$110 almost buys a BCG or a build kit from PSA...inevitably it's half cheapness and half indecisiveness...I want to take my time on one hand and then my ADHD kicks in and I just want to build it already...I've been floating this idea around for a while and I want to start moving on it
