Glock Sight Installation
Thanks. The shop doesn't have a range. I was just curious how they would check the accuracy.

Does everyone keep a copy of each P2P when they transport hand guns? Or is the FID card enough?

Glock Sight Installation
So my fiancé decided to purchase a Glock 20 to enjoy at the range. I have 2 questions. Technically, it's hers, under her P2P. If I wanted to bring it to the range, once we are married, can I transport it without her present? Does marriage change anything regarding ownership of firearms? (Do we become co/owners of each other's firearms?) My other question is she wanted to go "all out" and get night sights installed. The shop is not going to test fire the pistol to make sure of the accuracy. Should I be concerned about the install? My understanding is the windage will likely need correction. Thanks in advance.

Which case to get?
I have one of those above, as well as this one MidwayUSA which is much better

Increase HP On Toyota Corolla
On a serious note, many "cold air intakes" become "hot air intakes" when at a standstill. The stock air box insulates the filter, while many aftermarket ones leave the filter exposed to soak in the heat off the engine. This will make the car slower after coming to a stop.

Cheek Risers on a Bolt Action anyone?
Hey guys, I'm looking for a minimalist cheek riser for my Ruger Scout Rifle. I'm not into the Karsten style, nor am I into the add-on pouches. I bought an Accu-Riser, but I would prefer to just have the rubber top piece over the edge that would screw into the top of the stock. The channel isn't wide nearly enough, so it won't stay in place without drilling holes thru the top.. Any clean looking DIY projects? Here's a stock photo. I'd prefer something that didn't protrude down the sides nearly as far. I could trim it, but I'm not sure how clean I could make the cuts. I was thinking of buying u-channel shaped rubber, but I couldn't find anything in the right size.

Suggestions for 9mm that has .22 conversion kit available.
I second purchasing the SIG in classic .22. I did this with my P229, and then purchased a .357 SIG conversion. No downside over a traditional 229/226. I had some old, crappy, lo-velocity rounds a friend said he found in his garage, and they actually performed better in my SIG conversion than in my Ruger 10/22. I would recommend mini-mags however.

Tango Down ARC 10/30 mags
It looks like the top part of the magazine is sealed and self contained. It would function much like this mag for an FN 5.7.

Tango Down ARC 10/30 mags
It looks near impossible to modify them to hold additional rounds as the tube doesn't run the entire length of the magazine. It looks like a 10 rd tube with a block attached on the end to extend the length.

Sig M11-A1
I ordered a new P229 classic .22 about a year back. When it arrived it had the old style grips on it even though per SIG, it was supposed to have the E2 grips. SIG's excellent customer service was nice enough to send me the kit for free along with the .357 conversion kit I purchased from them. I went to install the new parts, and as I took off the grips I noticed the new hammer parts were already installed, so all I needed to do was pop on the new grip.

Sig M11-A1
I highly doubt you will need the new internals. Odds are, they are already installed on your pistol as they were revised for all new models, regardless of grip. You will only need the E2 grip, and maybe the tool to help you install it. Also, I think the price is only like $70 for the kit if necessary. Take yours off and compare to some online pics to see if they are updated.

Sig M11-A1
Have u handled an E2 P229? Despite having larger hands, I really like mine with those grips. I believe all the newer SIG models have the revised bits to be able to swap the grips with no other parts required.

Cheap 1911's
I wish the Ruger 1911 came with the choice of blued as well as the stainless. They had a special edition model, but it was quite a bit pricier. I would look at one of those, as well as a SA Range Officer as a budget 1911. With that said, my friend has a Rock Island to compliment his Dan Wesson and he loves it.

Looking for Vortex Viper PST- any deals floating around?
I did in fact order a "demo." I think offering "demo models" is a way for them to work around MAP pricing. Very nice people so far. According to Fedex, it will arrive today too. Not bad for ordering free ground shipping late in the afternoon yesterday.

FYI I ended up picking up a 4-16x FFP from Camera Land. They answered a few questions via email very quickly and courteously, and I expect this to be a seamless transaction.

Rifle in trunk, car. Why?
Are there any regulations as far as, let's say going to a bar, and having a few drinks (under the BAC limit of course)?

Ruger Gunsite Scout Rifle Review / Reflections
Thanks Wojo. This is my 2nd Operator. I sent the first one back 2x and then found this one online. I had some issues with this one as well, but this time SA was able to rectify it. I only sent back 1 other firearm out of all that I own, so it's not a serial habit. As for my Ruger, I decided I want a more high powered, precision > speed optic for mine, which I am aware goes against the philosophy of the rifle. It's just in my case, I can't justify another bolt action. Do you think I could get away with a Vortex Viper PST 4-16x50mm? I would mount it on an XS rail, so I'm afraid my cheek weld will be chin weld going up another 1cm. I have a comfortable cheek weld with my 3-12x42mm right now . . .

Hey Wojo- I see you are selling this in the classifieds. Can you tell me what scope/ring combo you have on it in the pics?
