My first AR and my first build
Why is everyone worried about this? Guns are loud. I've never been annoyed at someone either in a bench or next to me on the firing line for having a comp as long as its effective.

I agree their transfer price is ridiculous. As for everything else I'm pretty surprised to see these responses. I don't think they are nearly as bad as being made out to be. Everyone gets to make their own choices. I will still shop here with pleasure and recommend them to my friends.

What can't a 12 gauge shotgun kill?
Toughest skin – The whale shark The skin on the back of a whale shark is the thickest and toughest in the world and can be up to 6 inches (15cm) in thickness. The outer layer is covered in tiny tooth-like denticles. These denticles combined with ridges that run along its back make its skin pretty much harpoon and bullet proof. However it is still vulnerable to injury from passing boats. It's plenty powerful but its the proximity you'd have to get to some animals that I'd rather not experience.

Let me know when and I'll try to make it. I have been to 3 of those places. Never had a terrible experience at bullethole but they dont fill me with warm and fuzzies either. I was treated like a tool at shore shot and effingers is just ridiculous to try and shop at. It is what it is I guess.

I get what you're saying. The difference for me is Chris, and the fact that I don't think Marshall is at all malicious. Its hard to put into words but you I'll invite you to come in with me one day if you're ever in the area. I can say with a clear conscience that it is the best service I have received in any gun store. Oddly enough the silver bullet is #2 but I've seen terrible reviews there lol. Go figure

I get that and totally agree as I have been critical of him (and other shops) in the past on this forum. It does seem to get less and less common the more you go back. Like I said. I hope you give them another shot

Just to add, its not to say that Marshall has never been helpful. There are numerous occasions where he has or offered to go out of his way just to help me understand or see something. I just don't think he's an overly friendly person at times. For better or worse.

Sounds like you spoke to Marshall. He can run hot or cold and sometimes rubs me the wrong way. I assure you that Chris is a great guy to deal with. I personally like the shop and stop in there when I can. Sorry about your experience. I hope you give them another shot.

My first AR and my first build
OP, I do have this one and recommend it highly. Its significantly lighter and obviously shorter than my 16" ar. I got the NFA version of this upper shipped to another house (completely legal) to get the Comp of my choice put on. Bravo makes a very high quality product and this will come complete with buis, BC, and charging handle as well as several extras. Its well worth it. Word of caution that you WILL need compliance work done if you get something from BCM, to pin the comp and/or grind off the bayo lug.

It can be. Over $30 for american eagle .45 maybe a month ago. I did see them have $8-9 box for federal xm193 POST newtown. That was a while ago and I haven't checked for it in some time.

So how do I become better, see picture
The problem with following the bullet hole is that if your sights aren't dead on bawls accurate, you'll be chasing a moving hole with every shot. That's why you shoot a 3-5 round group first when sighting in a rifle. I take the snap caps to the range, mix one in with a few live bullets in my hand and load my mag without looking. Should be easy with a single stack. You won't see which number the snap is in so it will be a surprise. What may help you is something I tried when starting out: Hold your pistol at low ready, take your sight picture, pull the trigger to the rear slowly till first resistance, break the trigger and hold to rear after firing, lower pistol to low ready and release trigger, deep breath and relax. Rinse, repeat.

Panic is officially over.
Yeah, what's with all the cloak and dagger business? Do they not want more business or are we afraid to piss off other dealers with higher prices?

I'd probably agree with this. There are a few reasons you could be spraying the target. Trigger control, inconsistent sight picture, possibly even you holding the pistol out away from your body too long can cause your muzzle to swing around. Could be all 3 or more together. My first advice would be to keep working on dry firing at home, focusing on sight picture, breathing, and pulling trigger straight to the rear. Something is going wrong between the house and the range. There are also plenty of forum vendors that have very good classes.

Magpul fixed stock
That could vary quite a bit depending on someone's barrel length and type of brake/compensator no? Holeshot already gave the stock length from the end plate to buttstock so just add that to the end if your receiver.
