There is no such thing as "enough" ammo. Haha I've prolly got over 15k rounds of mixed ammo.

Well, they had "ok" prices when the price of ammo was getting retarded, and when it was getting retarded, I really did have enough of everything, so I wanted to wait for it to settle

Scattergun, steal from me there'll be no time to run
I got the bead on you, she fires true
Take what you want and I'll do what I have to do
Smooth bore, scattergun, scattergun, scattergun

Triple-O bucks the only shot for me
Cut any man right off at the knees
Don't need to bother the police,
I've got my Mossberg 590

I've got a 590. It came with the 8-shot tube, heat shield, and bayonet lug already installed. Bought it for about $400. It actually looks pretty evil with a bayonet attached. I'll see if I can dredge up a pic of it with the bayonet.

It has a good amount of mod parts available, though all I have added to it was a tactical stock. I've had absolutely no problems with it, although I will admit that firing 3" shells out of it is a bit rough on the shoulder. :icon17:

I recently won a Sig P290RS ORB. Absolutely no money was spent out of pocket for me. I entered a raffle and got lucky. Love this little 9mm gun.

I also ordered a lower receiver for an AR 15 I want to put together. It's from New Frontier.

I have seen so many polymer lowers break that I am confident in predicting that you are destined for heartaches and headaches. I cannot recommend against them strongly enough.

Any idea as to why that is? Glock and others seem to have had good luck with polymers. Higher stress from a rifle cartridge? Poor manufacturing?

Washington state legislature is due to vote on HBC 1561 (SBR legalization) of course with the BATFE's $200 tax stamp (legal extortion..lol) WA will probably add their own additional "sin tax" on top of that.. It is after all what this wonderful state is good at. It does sound promising though, since that's how we got suppressors legalized too. However given the climate in our state government (liberal/non pro 2A) im still skeptical. It goes to the house on the 28th for those Washingtonians interested, and those wishing to put a lil political pressure on our elected officials.

Both, IMHO. I've seen lowers from Plum Crazy, S&W, New Frontier, and RRA. I think there are only those that have cracked, and those that are soon going to crack. They break at the takedown pin holes, the FCG mounting holes, and where the receiver extension screws in. I think it's a combination of the higher-pressure cartridge with the torque stresses of a rifle as well as poor manufacturing and lousy quality control. Only exception (so far) seems to be the M&P 15-22. I haven't seen one of those go down yet.
