So my life is pretty much over...
To you as well. My sister is 9/4 I'm not senile yet fellas. You're gonna have to come up with something better than that lol. Thanks for the wishes guys. I actually don't feel nearly as bad as I did for my 25th. For some reason I was pretty bummed for that one.

I guess I should trade in my pistols for shiny wheel guns, my black rifles for walnut bolt guns, and complain about how things used to be in the good ol days. Thats right, I turned 30 today.

cycling issues
I had an issue cycling with my then new middy upper at a carbine class. I lubed the shit out of it and it worked perfectly since.
-
is this a good deal on a used AR?
Be aware that it does have a pinned and welded a2 flash hider. That upper itself is 1175 retail, but you don't know what its been through either. If its in good condition its a good deal imo

Chest rigs

Build at last!
Yeah, its pretty meh. If you feel you want the ability to magnify your optic, I would recommend saving up a bit and buying a standalone. The one that comes with it isnt the clearest, and restricts your field of vision more than it needs to for only 2x IMO. cons > pros

Chest rigs
It depends what your doing as well. I see a plate carrier with level 3 or 4 rifle plates having a dramatically different purpose than a chest rig with some level 3a soft armor under. Depending on what armor carrier you are putting the chest rig over, it may get bulky up front or around the shoulder straps. For a LEO or Military with a PC they will likely have radio's, breaching tools, hydration systems, chem light, e&e kits, e-tools, and a ton of other stuff hanging off themselves for their purpose. Which will very likely be shot at so protection is the highest priority. For us? I just wanted a PC cause I like them, and eventually work my way up to training where if I'm shot accidentally, it will likely be with a rifle. Hence the larger plates. Plus who doesnt like buying more gear lol I have no pipe dreams of being an assaulter, so I too am speculating a bit.

New PPQ M2 <First Handgun>
Nice handgun. The mag release button makes me sad though

Its pretty simple. Keep both eyes open, co witness with irons as you like it, focus on the target, and never ever use the 2x magnifier that it comes with lol.

Chest rigs
I would say comfort, molle real estate, side plate carriers.

Holy Hell, you aint kiddin! http://palmettostatearmory.com/index.php/labor-day-sale/vortex-sparc-red-dot-optic.html $150 after coupon, thats cheaper than I'd sell mine USED. 5th, if you can swing it, I wouldn't pass this deal up. I have the sparc and really like it. The ONLY drawback I've had so far is the power but may get accidentally turned on while in your range bag. But the warranty and this price more than make up for that.

Just an fyi, the hg did come with 3 short rail sections for him to use.

Its a screw. I have no idea which one it is to be honest.

Its the way the handguards are made. The magpul rails are designed to compress with a "washer" on the back side of the hg. As you can see they have an oblong slot where you can mount the rails in any slot for any number of rails. Yours just literally screw into the handguard itself. http://youtu.be/i4iJFtO_2dI

http://store.magpul.com/prod_detail_list/104 Not sure which ones fit. I know its not all of them.

Magpul makes rail sections similar to the sections you got with that hand guards that were designed for the MOE hg's. You could conceivably us them on your fore end but would need longer screws than the ones the magpul sections come with. The upside is magpuls sections are super cheap compared to the diamomdhead.
