Ditching an AK47 for an AR
I am an AR guy but I would like and AK type, just for familiarization purposes. My issue is deciding caliber then make.... But I digress.... Even though I want one (and I have an SKS) I don't see me ever totally switching platforms to a primarily AK bias.

Ugh I need help choosing a direction.
Awesome! Now you have 2 project guns! See what I did for you!!! I would use same BUIS type on both guns, either both lower 1/3 or both absolute, both folding or both fixed, but I wouldn't worry about two different optics (EO and T1) as long as they are both the same type ie: both RDS, both Reflex, both irons only, or both magnified. I would also put the T1 on my primary rifle - but that's just me. As far as the Stag, I would just chop the FSB with a grinder, hit it with cold blue then some BBQ or Manifold (Hi-Temp) paint then install a rail that uses a standard barrel nut (I really like the Troy* Alpha/VTAC tubes and Primary Arms has them on sale for Veterans Day). It's not hard, I recently did it to a Bushapmster/BCM gun I have and it worked great. I am very pleased with now it turned out. *People have differing opinion on Troy lately - there has been some controversy. I am OK with them, others not so much.

Eric Frein Captured in hangar at Poconos Mountain Airport
You have a reading comprehension issue: He didn't have the nerve to duke it out in the end = Coward. He had no problem pulling the trigger when he ambushed his targets from a position of relative safety, couldn't do it when it was all on the line while facing men with guns drawn = Pussy. Handled a perceived slight to his "honor" by shooting two men in cold blood = Scumbag. I know I am better than him and there is no bullshit about what I think of him or his character. If he would have fought capture, I would have a different opinion - he did not. He ran, he hid, he surrendered. None of these things are the act of a man that believes in what he did. None of these acts are those of aman who feels his acts were righteous. They are nothing more than the acts of a coward. I said nothing to be embarrassed about. In any case you never have to be embarrassed for me - I want nothing from you. You make your true feelings clear, and I want no part of them. Some here may agree with you, some may not - I don't care. I stand by assessment of Frein's character - he is a pussy and coward as evidenced by his lack of fight in the end.

Please tell me you are not comparing military Snipers to this asswipe. I know you have a military background. I expected you to have more sense than to make a comment like that. If you can't tell the difference between what they do and what he did you need to do some research.

Option 1: I would build an SPR type. Take your time and do it right. Save up, buy quality parts - no rush. I would also convert the Stag to mimic your BCM as close as possible and keep it as a backup gun for training. You have been taking some more serious classes - it would suck to have your primary rifle go down and you are unable to complete the training you paid for because you didn't have a spare rifle. Option 2: Not as sexy, but I would build a clone to the BCM you already have as a backup, for the same reason as you posted above. While they are very cool and I wouldn't turn one down if it was free, I don't see the utility in tying up a bunch of cash in a retro build.

Best side saddle
I have had my Mesa Side Saddles (I have 2) since they first came out. It's been close to 8 or 9 (maybe? Can't remember) years now with rounds in them constantly. I gotta ask why baton rounds? I assume you mean Less Lethal (LL) type right? Less Lethal rounds are currently a no-go in NJ, even for police. Anything that comes out of a firearm is deadly force, regardless of intent or design of the ammunition. I would ditch those, they won't do you any good amigo. Plus, LL out of anything less than a 40mm launcher generally performs abysmally.

This is the guy that watched Red Dawn as a kid and wishes he was the Russians. Plenty of scumbags have specifically targeted and killed cops over the last 100 years - Rebellion hasn't followed any of them yet. Don't give him too much credit. Cowards don't start rebellions, they are too scared and too selfish. They want to be infamous. They want their name to burn across headlines. Nothing more, nothing less. He didn't do this for 2A rights, or the constitution or gay baby whales with AIDS. He did this for him, because of a girl if initial reports are correct.

It was the act of a coward. Nothing more, nothing less. He was a pussy who ambushed his targets. When he had a chance to really fight for his twisted beliefs, when his life was on the line, he showed his true colors and he gave up like the pussy he is.

Best side saddle
I've had a Mesa Sidesaddle on my 870 for a while. It looses it's retention ability over a short period of time. I had the original black insert, then switched to the white - which fixed it for a while but is loose again. Under recoil my rounds fall out - Unsat. Especially for the $$$$$ I laid out for it. The ESSTAC Cards are great. They are cheap, low weight, and you can quickly swap from a card full of slugs to buck to whatever you need on the side of your shotgun with nothing more than a tug and a slap (phrasing )

1) hmmm.... That's strange. I see people regularly admit to being mistaken. I know I have on numerous occasions, but good for you 2) see post #22. No one involved is going to risk blowing this case over a petty revenge type assault on this coward.

Well, in addition to Halloween, it is also the anniversary of the Battle of Bersheeba in 1917. So instead of scary how about heroic? It's not scary but it makes my palms sweat! The Lighthorsemen: http://youtu.be/Oeuh4XZI7nk On YouTube in its entirety.

I posted this in the other thread: - from a Fox News Article:http://www.foxnews.com/us/2014/10/31/eric-frein-suspect-in-pennsylvania-trooper-ambush-taken-into-custody/ He was taken into custody by US Marshals SOG. Probably a big reason as to why he is alive and unharmed by the Police. As much as any of us (human beings, not just Police) may desire revenge and retribution, LEO professionalism usually wins and this is a good thing. After being on the run in rough terrain for weeks, I can think of a million reasons more plausible for his injury than an unprofessional US Marshall SOG guy or PASP Trooper willing to risk tainting the arrest, marring the upcoming trial, or giving his defense attorney ammunition to use against them in court. Anyway, as Damon Wayans said, "Hope you like prison food. And penis."
