AR building
I love Seekins products. They just came out with this lower get it stripped and you can put the parts you want in it. Just my opinion. (see below link) it is very easy to build the lower and it give you much needed experience with the componets. http://midwestpx.com/product_info.php?products_id=609

Looking at M&P 9mm fullsize
I am getting interested in a M&P 9mm but I would like some info from those that have them. I am looking to use this in USPSA Production most likely or/and SSP IDPA. All the guns I have used in competition have had 5 inch barrels. I see that there are only two options for the M&P 9 with a 5 inch barrel and they are next to impossible to find and when you can are at a premium. So do most of the guys using the M&P in USPSA use the 5 or the 4.25 inch model? I also see that there are two models one says striker fired double action only and the other says striker fired I am not sure what the difference is so if anyone can explain that that would help maybe. Do you think the 3/4 of an inch makes much of a difference in competition? I know people recommend the Apex kit for the trigger and I am used to a Glock34 with a 2.5-3lbs trigger so will this kit make the trigger the gun much better? Any other info you could offer about this pistol would be great. The model that I am looking at is 209301 it's the no thumb safety mags fixed at 10

Trouble with Palmetto State Armory?
I have ordered many times from them and I have had no one problem!! I understand that people have had issues and that sucks!! You will have to wait the webpages says that in big bold letters but I have always gotten my stuff. I have never had to call but I have always gotten a reply by email. I have never been asked for my FID even for pistol ammo. I guess I am one of the lucky one!!! I will buy from them again and hope it stays the way it has....Also don't order anything if you need it fast as you will be disappointed, if JoeBoboutfitters has what you want then get it from them they always ship fast really fast most times it's goes out the same day!!!

How frequently do you shoot your firearms?
I stopped going to the range to just shoot at targets. I have only been going to matches and I can usually get to one a weekend and sometimes two a weekend. This weekend I will make two matches. I have a choice of 3 but can only hit 2. I have really added a lot of dry firing and mag swap practice.

Where does everyone get there uppers put together?
I put my own together depending on what you have it doesn't take very long, I did my last one in 20 minutes. So if you don't have 20 minutes in your day you are just way to busy and need to take a break or die early!! The first AR I built I did the lower and sent the upper out and it took a month to get back so the way I look at it if your gonna shoot for a hobby you need to know how to work on your guns. The re is not better way to learn an AR than to just sit down and build one, there are so many video out there that if you get stuck just watch one and you will be good to go.

What to do with back logged orders.
I order a lot of stuff from JoeBob's and they ship within two days. You have to get on the list but when they have what you want it goes out quick. Midway recently got my order out in two days also.

Finished AR build
So this was a family project I built this rifle with two of my kids, my daughter is 22 and my son 20. This build started last November. I had a few parts and started picking the other ones needed and then the gun craze came. I found pretty much everything we needed at the old prices some parts just took longer to find then others. My kids were scouting webpages looking for things while I did the same thing. The hardest part was the BCG which I ordered from a place called Boise Tactical in Idaho, which I am still waiting on It should ship in a few days. I wanted to build a 300blk but the barrel was not to be found. I used Seekins Precision Sp3r upper with matching rail and an Aero Precison lower. I was really impressed with the Aero lower for a $99 lower it's fit and finish much nicer than my Spike's Punisher lower. I am waiting on a Seekins Billet lower to match the billet upper but they are back ordered. So when that lower comes in I will start a 300blk upper if this crap dies down. I haven't shot it yet but I will soon I just have to borrow the bolt from my other AR. I still need a set of sights that I have on order a set of troy fold down mini's.

Three gun in new jersey
Not only did he reply very fast his answer was yes anyone can shoot. I usually shoot knockdown steel at OB on this day but this match is calling my name, I just finished building a new 3gun AR. This is very interesting. Oh crap just remembered I only have a semi shotgun this calls for a pump only!!! Dam.

interesting experience at belleplain supply
This is a gun store? I cannot believe that a person with this type of mentality works or owns a gun store or likes guns or does anything with guns. He seems like a total tool!!!!

Canik anyone ever see or shoot one?
These are coming in from Turkey, seems as though a bunch of Turkish guns are coming to the US market lately. I have been looking at this one for awhile and from what I have found they seem to get pretty good reviews and people that own them seem to like them. The link below is to a Canik55 Shark, I like the looks of it. I wanted to see if anyone here ever shot one or held one they seem to be modeled after the CZ line and CZ makes a great product that people have been knocking off for years. Let me know what you think!!

Three gun in new jersey
The match at Monmouth is only open to members and their guests. So I would guess they don't want anyone watching unless you know someone. The below link is to their event page. http://www.mcrpcnj.com/events.html

Gsg 1911
Do you now have to use the 6 o'clock hold with the taller sights? I notice that the Sig 1911.22 has a short front sight and I have to use the 6 o'clock hold. I want to get away from that when I replace the sights so I was wondering what the Dawson recommendation was for or what type of hold you now have to use with the .240 tall front? Thanks

Pined Stock Question
The stock can be pinned anywhere you want it, it just has to be pinned. I have gone into the shop I use the guy had my son shoulder the rifle multiple ways before he pinned the stock. I would drop in and ask to see the rifle to see what he is doing. This sounds fishy to me. I have never pinned a stock in the last position it not comfortable for me or my kids.

OK AR gurus...help me out here!
It's not impossible to find the parts needed to build your own. I did over the last 2 months and the only thing I had trouble finding was the BCG, I could of found one easier but I didn't want to over pay to much. So if you look for the parts and spend some time you can find them. There are lowers to be had almost daily at regular prices and like I said the BCG is by far the toughest part to find. The tools are very basic and the video are all over the internet. Do it your not in a hurry to get it done and you will know your rifle better and be more comfortable if there is ever an issue with it.

Buying two guns - same or different?
I would say get one of each in every caliber by every manufacture that you like. I thing that diversity is the spice of life. If the SHTF and you have one in every caliber then when or if you find ammo you can use it, it would suck to find a 1000 rounds of 9 when all you had was a 40. That being said I have mostly all 9's and 45's so take it for what it's worth...not much!! Buy what you like!!!
