Bugger, if it's Oct 13th, I'm out. It's my better half's birthday.

Looks like Cabela's does price match their online price. They had boxes and boxes of the CCI SPP in stock today at 39.99. I'm going to stop by and ask as its on the way home tomorrow.

Yeah, not sure why... Can't do in store pickup either...

Thanks. For reloading 40 S&W for a 2011, does it matter which one?

29.99 per 1000 for the CCI small pistol primers. They also have Federal SPP for 34.99. They also have quite a few other CCI and Federal primers in stock. In store pricing for the CCI was 39.99 when I was there earlier today. Hazmat fee is 20. Club visa shipping is only 5. http://www.cabelas.com/product/CCI-Primers-Per-1000/731748.uts http://www.cabelas.com/product/Shooting/Reloading/Reloading-Powder-Primers-Accessories|/pc/104792580/c/104761080/sc/333152280/Federal-Centerfire-Primers/739971.uts Is there a difference between the CCI and Federal stuff?

Too bad I'll be away that weekend. I really want to check out a match at CJ as I've seen the videos. Timer Skillz should be mandatory category for all match registration forms. I love the part "...and lazy".

My condolences. I lost my dad very suddenly also almost 2 year ago. Wish you and your family the best thru this tough time.

Thanks. Good to know. I figured it was some mistake that nothing in PA is affiliated.

Thanks. Interesting, there are no clubs in PA that satisfy the CMP affiliated clubs. I have membership to 2 different clubs out there.

Darn, I forgot that was on the way. I made a drive out to Minnesota during July 4th. I should have made it a stop on the way home. What is the requirements to buy from CMP though?

Try speaking with Rick at OMG. He has one for sale and said he can limit the mag to 15.

If you want a double stack 45 with a 1911 trigger, how's about the 2011? You can get magazines that hold 14 rounds. If you want to go really crazy (and live in a free state), you can get the 170mm magazines which will hold 18 rounds. STI makes a bunch of different models depending on what you want to do with it. The only issue is the price.

Rust-Oleum High Heat paint. You notice a slight difference where the original paint is slightly shiny and the Rust-Oleum is matte. It's not very noticeable. I notice it because I painted it. The trigger guard and grip cover most of where I painted anyway.

Depending on where you are, give Rick at OMG a ring. He's in Bayonne and is a forum sponsor. I stopped by today with no intention of buying anything. I was only going to introduce a buddy of mine to him that was interested in something he had there. He pulled out all the goodies and I wound up buying something. I told him he would have to hold it for me for a few months as I'm trying to limit my purchases to 3 handguns per year. I usually submit for new permits towards the end of the year. He was ok with that. I left him a deposit. He has quite a few Glocks in stock and the best bet is to actually hold and fire one to see if you like it.

Yeah, I'm a bit wary about buying third party from Amazon. I only do it cause Amazon has good customer service. I got hosed with a part for a HVAC. They said Honeywell and the product was some knockoff. Needless to say it did not work. I then had to pay restocking fees to return and the return shipping. I raised the issue with Amazon and they credited me immediately. I would leave a negative feedback for GRG as they are trying to pass it as something else so that other buyers can be aware. I would also leave it in the feedback of the product.

I didn't fire it with the carry handle but my brother in law said it was all going right. Height was good. Thanks, I'll do that. I don't know much about these handles but I guess the Colt ones would have some markings stating that it is a Colt, right?

Welcome. I'm also in Union County. I'm hoping to get my hands on a Mauser in the near future also.

Thanks, maybe I'll convince him to use back the MBUS site if he wants to go with irons (or plastic/iron combo) in this case. Perhaps I'll spring for a decent rear sight for him. He really likes the nostalgic look of the A2 carry handle and was what he used way back when. I hear RR makes a really good match grade A2 rear sight but that is sure some expensive rear sight at $165. Not sure. He picked it up on GB a while back. There are no markings of any kind on it. I'm going out to his place in a few weeks from now. I'll take it to the range and test it out.

This was installed by twong and myself. It's held in place by a set screw. Twong zero'd the original magpul MBUS sight with minimal adjustment to 100 yds. It would be odd if the sight post and the MBUS were both wrong. Below are pictures of the A2 handle. Everything seems to be inline in the picture below. There seems to be a slight gap on the right side but that should not impact if it is going right. The left side seems flush though.

Nice. I have the AAC-SD also. It's pretty much stock with no glass yet. I first need to obtain some glass for it. The stock is the next to go and I am leaning towards the AICS 1.5 stock but now I noticed that you said the stock was more for benchrest shooting. What is the weight difference between the AICS stock and the Manners? I highly doubt I would ever go hunting although my brother in law tried to convince me to go with them.

Thanks. There looks to be a slight gap between the rail and the sight. I snapped a bunch of pictures. I'll try to post some pictures of the sight tomorrow when I get home.

I wouldn't doubt it as it was my first complete upper build. I also have a magpul rear sight that was installed. We can try to zero with that.

Sorry, I don't really know. He picked it off from gunbroker. The red dot installed was a primary arms red dot. There wasn't much adjustment to get the dot zero'd. The front sight was then raised so that it is inline with the red dot. I have a Troy backup rear sight at home. I can take it off an try it on his. I can also try mounting his sight onto mine to see how it works.

I built an AR for my brother in law. We zero'd the rifle with a red dot. It has an A2 gas block that we installed and it was centered with the red dot. He wanted a more classic look and replaced it with a bolt on A2 carry handle. He has adjusted the windage on the sight all the way left but it is still shooting right. Any thoughts on this?
