I have a Troy MCS stock on my SOCOM 16 too. However the MCS stock is way too heavy for me. Looking at getting Vltor's M1-S M1A stock in the future.


Edit: BTW, love the look of your SOCOM. Especially the camo. :tup:

Found what I think was a decent deal. So I bought a new toy. http://www.the370z.com/members/urdel...s-tactical.jpg
Remington 870 express tactical $399. Can't wait to play with it.

It was one of those 1 hour only specials. I happened to be in the right place at the right time so I stocked up.

Shooting his wartime 1943 mosin. Such a sweet gun. It was dead accurate.

My table. M&P9 fullsize, shield9, a ruger lcr 38sp, and my buds new Taurus 38sp (no idea on model)

My full size 9 was shooting 8" targets and soda bottles at 50yrd. I'm pleased with the purchase. Groupings sucked but I was hitting. My friend bought that Taurus on the same day I bought the 9. It sucked so bad it's already sold. Thing was garbage. Neither of us could hit anything with it. Not even at 7yrds out.

OMG!! you have a BOOM STICK!!! My brother has one of those and a K31. Those boom sticks are crazy!! We were shooting at old rotors from a Miata at around 50yards. They blast right through them !!! That Boom stick has a mighty kick!

Is it true
 
In the wake of the Confiscationist's calls for more "gun control," that ARs are flying off the shelves or hard to get now...again?

Flying off the shelves, and the great ammo shortage of 2016 is already underway. Hard to find good 5.56 or .223.

Going by what I've read, sales are up for most guns - S&W stock made a nice jump recently.

I can get centerfire ammo locally but rimfire stuff can be hard to find. Local stores are frequently out of .22 LR and I had to drive 35 miles to get some .22 Magnums. .17 WMRs are usually in stock but often only in limited quantities (1 or 2 boxes).
12 gauge shells are still plentiful.

"Specialty" ammo (LAP, tracer, flechette, &c), is no problem since Firequest is located in town. I can get some good deals buying stuff that they are discontinuing or don't have enough of to put in the catalog. :)

Was just at Cabela's by Wheeling WV. They had plenty of .22's and other calibers. AR's and the like have jumped in price again. I bought my daughter a S&W M&P 22 Compact for Christmas so that she can practice without costing me an arm and leg. :icon17:

Inspector71 12-15-2015 02:40 PM

I was going to buy
 
Ruger's new plain Jane AR15. I have an AR10 and for the price through my FFL, $571 I couldn't beat the price. But, I had saved up money to put down on a Z and trade my Challenger. Once, to my surprise, I discovered the Challenger had been in a front end crash, I needed every dime I had saved to buy the Z. I did so and then the mass shootings and here we go again.

Amen to that.
I belong to a number of pro-2nd Amendment organizations and serve on the board of directors for one. I also am their chief article writer...and this is the fun par, I am also a public high school teacher. My colleagues in the Socialist Studies department teach kids to never touch guns, they should be banned, and to drive a Prius and avoid red meat. I am the complete opposite. Naturally they have been after me for years and finally forced me into retirement this May. But I took notes all these years and have a tale to tell. Arm up, gun up.

Socialist studies! LMAO. I just about fell out of the chair. Funny, but sadly true.

Looking at this page, I decided something. I need another moist nugget!
