Lol, sometimes you get lucky. Thanks for the reply.

Interested if the deal falls through.

ETA - Withdrawn. -Apologies.

Just fyi, if you use a VLTOR a5 extension tube, you meet the 26" minimum OAL without pinning with a 11.5" barrel. Also, the Surefire SFMB556 is pretty sweet, the drawback being muzzle blast.

Not to be repetitive as it was said in the first response, but safety. If you can not attend a class, there are plenty of youtube videos that can teach you how to load, unload, grip, fire and clear malfunctions. You can learn all that in the safe and stress free environment of your home. I highly recommend picking up some snap caps in the caliber of your gun. Make sure there are no live rounds, and load a magazine with the snap caps. Then you can practice safely performing these different manipulations of the gun, being muzzle conscious and safe. You can also practice getting a proper sight picture and dry fire. That will also help when you get to the range. Once there, remember to keep your finger off the trigger until you are pointed down range and take aim at the threat. Other than that, congrats and enjoy!

On a pistol, the serialized frame is the only part that needs to go through an FFL.

Looking for a late 3rd gen with a removable cylinder bushing. Let me know what you have.

Not really looking for a collector, but I would like it to be in a safe operating condition. Sub $1K. Let me know what you have.

Yeah, can’t really see why those 2 guys went into a bidding war after the gun was well past its value.

Hm, makes me want to list my 686...

I’ll take it.

Well, I need every frame I can get for a 280hz monitor. Currently running 3900X, 32GB RAM, x570 board, GTX 1080, and a m.2 drive. Just barely hacking it in some competitive FPS games. Not netting the 280 fps without dumbing down some settings, and I only drop them to a point, and even with that, I barely hit 280. Most games I hover around 120-150 maxed out settings. My card is dated, but I was waiting on the 30 series. I really want a 3080 or 6800 XT. The additional frames you get with the 5000 series CPUs has made that an easy choice for me as well. All I have to do is upgrade the BIOS and swap out the CPU. Then I’ll throw the 3900X in a new build for the wife.

If it falls through, I will take it.

Late, but that would be a no go. Either build or buy a rig.

How times have changed.

With AMD crushing intel, I would say AMD Ryzen 7 5800x or above paired with a Radeon 6800 or above which should be released tomorrow. The only issue is availability. The AMD chips and Nvidia cards are out of stock everywhere.

I have the same thought process. My last build was a i7 3770k just to show how long it lasted me. My current build is a 3900x that I am very happy with. I would clone it for myself, but that seems silly now that the 5900x is out. I have long awaited AMD’s return ever since the release of the Intel Core Series.

Lol, I can see the confusion. Maybe I should change the title.

So my wife has officially taken over my PC since she is working from home and I have been looking to build a new one. I was logged in to Newegg on 11/05 hitting refresh for 2 minutes leading up to the 9 am launch of the AMD Ryzen 5000 Series processors. Long story short, by the time I got to the page for the 5900X it was sold out. As was every other 5000 series chip. I am looking forward to the release of the 6000 Series GPUs in a few days, but I assume the bots will get those too. I have never seen this much demand for components. Is this just a covid thing? Why is there so much demand for components when there are complete systems available?

If you don't want to "mess" with it, just get a barrel that isn't threaded. Otherwise, remember that even in a free state, people run 14.5" carbines and pin a muzzle device to hit 16" minimum barrel length unless they are going to SBR it.

Can’t go wrong with a Ruger MKIV or 22/45. They are reliable, easy to maintain (now) and backed by tons of aftermarket support. My only recommendation is that you blue loctite every screw if you get one.

Looking for a like new or lightly used Remington V3 Tac-13. Let me know what ya got and where you are and most importantly how much you want.

Not trying to hijack, but no M1A?

Any online firearm purchases will have to ship to a NJ FFL for transfer. If you go to an out of state dealer (say a gun show in PA) you may buy long guns (rifles and shotguns) and take possession on the spot. Handguns will need to be shipped back to a NJ FFL for transfer (i.e. you can purchase the handgun there, but you may not take possession. The out of state dealer will have to ship it to a NJ FFL for you). As far as crying about the prices, just save up and get what you really want the first time. Anything less and you won’t be satisfied, and you will probably end up going through the selling to fund next purchase loop.
