I just bought a really nice new transporter for my firearms
Nice truck brother! I was looking hard at the Tacoma TRD PRO but ended up with a Honda Ridgeline. I needed more interior storage that the Tacoma offered. I am very happy with mine, but I honestly like the looks Tacoma much better.

Refinishing an ACOG/Cerakote?
Contact Modern Materiel in Keyport. They are close to you and members here. If anyone can do it, they can.

Made in China is all I know. That's a non-functional mag from work I used for the photo because it looks cooler. My mags are all 10 rounders.

Yeah. The milled receiver and the two tangs really limit your selection. I think I have resigned myself to just pick up an Arsenal Warsaw length stock to replace the NATO length that's on there.

Glock fiber optic sight recommendations
Those plastic "sights" that come on a Glock aren't really sights. They are temporary placeholders until you decide what aftermarket sights you want to install. There are about 12,345,983 different sights on the market for Glocks. Everyone has their favorite. Because of this, Glock decided to offer their pistols with the plastic sights in order to avoid charging the customer for sights they will likely not like and be swapping out for their preferred aftermarket sights. Personally, I am glad they do this. I don't want the pistol to cost $75-$100 more just so Glock can install a part I am going to remove and replace with the Ameriglo Spartan Operator sights I prefer at $80-$90 a pop. In any case, a thin front sight with a wide notch rear will generally be marginally less precise but measurably faster to acquire i.e.: Easily able to keep hits inside a 6" circle at 25 yards, but maybe not stack rounds through the same hole, while giving you the ability to align the sights very quickly for much faster rapid hits and shorter split times at closer distance. If it is too dim to see your front sight clearly, how well are you seeing your target? A light (specifically a weapon mounted light like a Surefire X300 or Streamlight TLR-1) may be a better answer than a FO front sight.

Nice grab. What's the stock adapter on there? I couldn't find anything for my SAM7R...

Help. What is this?
Not trying to scare anyone - just stating be careful and sharing some info regarding WECSOG improvements on your firearms. I understand that there was more wrong with that gun than a striker block being polished. I also know that in the everlasting struggle to make a striker fired gun feel like a tuned 1911 (Here's a hint: it's never going to happen) this is occurring more and more. Again, a cautionary tale, not a prohibition. If you don't feel comfortable, bring the gun to a certified gunsmith for the work, or by quality parts that have already been tuned by a reputable manufacturer and have been tested to be safe.

Help. What is this?
Yeah, striker safety plunger. Prevents the striker from moving forward until there is a deliberate trigger press where the trigger bar hits the plunger and moves it out of the way. It may just be dirty in there. Hold the slide muzzlemdown sonthe ejection port is in your sight line. Press that plunger in, you should see the tip of the striker fall down through the firing pin hole. Then holding the plunger in, shake the slide up and down. You should hear the striker rattle in its chamber. If not, you likely need to detail strip the pistol. If you are going to polish or attempt to reshape the plunger or trigger bar - Be careful! Too much polishing or reshaping can alter your internal safety and you can end up deactivating it. A female shooter was recently shot in the leg with a holstered gun (she was in the surrender position when it discharged) and the reason came back to - crappy trigger job by the previous owner. I'll try and find the video on it. Anyway, The APEX DCAEK has a replacement plunger and smooths the trigger press significantly without altering any of the safeties. https://store.apextactical.com/WebDirect/Products/Details/191851 Worth every penny. They also make one for Glock pistols. Great replacement part.

Freedom Ordnance 9mm carbine
I don't consider the JRC to be an "AR" type rifle. It has a completely different manual of arms. My Glock mag carbine is run identically to my ARs.

Freedom Ordnance 9mm carbine
Paul, are you referencing the Kel-Tec or the 9mm AR?

Freedom Ordnance 9mm carbine
I was thinking about one of these as well. Missed a couple good deals on used ones on the forum here in the Marketplace. Still looking....

Freedom Ordnance 9mm carbine
They have to keep the grip angle of the pistol they were designed for or they won't function. If you used Uzi mags, they would be straight. Unfortunately Glock mags followers are angled for proper feeding of the round at Glock's grip angle - ergo, the magwell has to mimic that for reliable feeding.

Freedom Ordnance 9mm carbine
That actually looks like a good deal. Features are good. Has a LRBHO. Controls look good. I built mine with QC10 parts (in .40) and am very happy but am extremely interested to hear how this runs if you get one.

It is a PTC ruling, therefore it affects all recruits, regardless of hiring process. Blksheep can probably speak to the State corrections better than I can. I am trying to get an confirmation from a PTC Drill Sgt/PT instructor.

Anyone have an RV?
Keep in mind, a lot of RVs are still winterized as there is still a chance they will freeze - hell, it was 18* at my house a couple nights ago. If winterized, the SSS facilities won't be working yet.

It's funny now, but there was a time where every request for assistance or diagnosis of a problem with a gun on this forum was met with "throw it over the wall'.
