Sighted in at 100 metres (not yards). Then I shot four 5 shot groups less than 4moa.

Now...on to 200 and then 300 (metres, not yards). Hav'n fun!

Nice! :tup:
Now...time to make those groups smaller! ;)

So my f*cking CDP II finally shipped last Thursday. 2day delivery! But wait... they don't deliver on the weekends. Well f*ck. Oh well, it'll be delivered on Monday! Wait... whats this... my FFL is closed monday!? f*ck again. I'll have to wait till Tuesday... Wait a second... They're closed on Tuesday as well!!!!! holy f*cking sh*t. Well Wednesday it is. Oh and lets not forget I have to abide by California's 10-day waiting period. You know, just in case I go ape sh*t in 10days or something and decide to blast up a crowd of people, I won't be able to do it with a f*cking 1911. I'll just have to use one of my other f*cking guns!!! Makes no sense at all. If I own a gun, and have a clean background why the hell should I have to wait 10days?!?!?!


I hate Cali.....

Man that sucks. :shakes head:

If it wasn't for the California government, Cali would be a great place to live.

They screw with a lot of stuff. Like the whole emissions thing. For example one of the biggest Aftermarket parts companies for my car won't sell a lot of their stuff in Cali anymore. Even putting "off road use only" didn't help. They pulled all their performance parts. I luckily got them before that happened.

Also our Smog Checks are ridiculous...

Are they? Because when I've been to LA, and when the smog is bad, it's gross...

I'm sure thats the multimillion dollar companies that pay off their inspectors. Nah, they pick on the lil guys that wanna add a little more power to their cars.

Well... started in on Saturday at 200 metres (not yards). The results of one 10 round session...

Then, to 300 metres (not yards)...

Ok, ok...it's only my second and third time shooting this rifle. But, boy, am I pleased. Now...onward to 400, 500, and beyond!!:woot:

Good job! Just need some more practice. Are you going to roll your own for your rifle or find a factory load that groups well?

:tup:

Thanks. Paid a lot less than that, actually. It is new but dealer inventory and picked up for $600 :tup:

Good starter kit! :icon17:
I wouldn't say "ever need". ;)
There are plenty of great firearms out there, why limit your self to just 3.
20+ and counting for me and I need all of them. :tup:

Just curious, why are you getting a gen 3 over a gen 4?

^^^ tried and trusted my son. Tried and trusted.

Sent from my SM-N900T using Tapatalk

Here's what the local shop owner explained to me as the the tradeoff on gen3 vs gen4... gen4 costs more, has two springs (instead of one on gen 3), and gen 4 is made to fit smaller hands. Gen 3 fits me fine. Mechanically, he said, the extra spring really doesn't matter.

Any different viewpoints on this? worth the extra ~$200?

Do a google search on the Glock brass-to-face issue as well as other functionality problems. More common in later builds of the Gen 3. Still an issue, although not as frequent, in the Gen 4.

will do, thanks for the heads up and the vid... admit I haven't done nearly enough research here!

i was actually asking what is the best AR for ~1000$USD lol

Colt 6920. Less than that, we're talking plinkers and range toys.

For most people no. For me yes, for a very specific reason. The mag release can be swapped to the other side on the gen 4s. I need the mag release on the right side. The first pistol I bought was a Walther P99. After that it was a H&K USP 45 Tactical. I have built up muscle memory on ejecting mags using my middle finger of my shooting hand. I will not even consider a pistol unless it can eject from the right in a OEM configuration.


:twocents:
From what I have read and seen there were a few initial issues with the gen 4s that were blown way out of proportion. I have had no issues with my gen 4 Glock 20.

yup, I just got that colt M4 outa layaway as it was on a good deal at my gun shop! Also my bday is tomorrow and the wife asked what I wanted. I said Glock 21 and she said ok! WOOT :)

Pic time! My birthday is today so I did get a Glock 21 from my wife! Also a week before I did pickup my Colt M4 Magpul edition! We went to the shooting range over the weekend! The wife is shooting my Glock 21 in the one pic and the target is from 15ft away. My wife took all 3 of my Glocks (19, 23, and 21) and took one shot with each and did that! Pretty good:)

Nice! :tup:

I want a nice AR... something close to what I use in the field(aside from the burst.full auto)

What do you use in the field?
(which M16/M4 variant)

Have not been to this thread in quite sometime, started a new career 3 months ago...moved to South East Ohio, hours away from all my favorite shops in PA, anyone know any good gun shops in SE/Columbus Oh area? I need another toy...thinking ar-10 platform...or a big brother to my FNS 40. Im gonna go catch up on this thread now!!!

m4a1

There are plenty of semi-auto M4 style clones out there.
Like what Niche79 just got.
It's all about how much $$$ you want to spend.

Also there is the build your own route (semi-auto only of course).
It not hard to build one (IMO).

I built an AR-15 earlier this year.
It was easy and it was awesome to build it exactly the way I wanted it.
Of course I had to be different....

I like that man, what did a rig like that run?

Nice build Vabam! Love the Noveske lower!

Isamu, I built one last year. Unfortunately, things were scarce when I built it and I didn't get everything I wanted. The best part is I can always add it later! If I could do full auto or burst I definitely would, along with some silencer options. Lucky for me I live in Illinois and those things will not be an option. :(

I just stocked up on a bunch of stuff. Bought some 9mm and .223 in bulk. This Ebola thing has us a little on edge. Wanted to be ready. I also went through my bow and bought some new arrows. It's been waaaaaay too long since I have shot it. I'll upload some pics later. :)

Need to finish this off with a good optic. Any recommendations besides your ususal eotech?

Red dot? Magnification?

I use the Vortex Strikefire, and I've been very pleased with it from a bang-for-the-buck standpoint.

going to be looking for a red dot that has the capability of added magnification

Well, the Strikefire comes with a 2x magnifier, which is more than enough for me. It's screw-on, not flip-up. HOWEVER, I THINK there is a flip-up version...

Thanks! :tup:

Bought all the parts over time.
Rough guesstimation is around $2700 with out the optics.
The optics and mounts are another $2600.
What are hard to see in the pics are the Noveske barrel that came with a head spaced bolt, Wilson Combat drop in trigger, and JP Silent Captured Spring buffer.

If I wasn't into guns I could easily have enough money for that S30 (first gen Zs) RB26DETT engine swap project I want to do.
Or have a GT-R. :rolleyes:

:tiphat:

(For the those who might not know)
Full auto/bust builds are cost prohibitive IMO. The 1986 FOPA banned new sales of full auto and burst fire weapons to civilians after the act was enacted. All full auto/burst weapons made before then were grandfathered. This means AR-15 full auto and bust sears are $15K+ and that’s if you can find one. Most owners are holding on to their auto sears. Oh and don’t forget the NFA paper work too.

Yes, you can own a full auto or burst fire weapon (except in states like IL :stirthepot: :p) but you’ll pay and arm and a leg to do so. I don’t know about you but, my finger can pull a trigger pretty fast.

If you have an old-style ("pre-ban") M-16/AR-15 lower, conversion to auto/burst is pretty easy. Replace the bolt carrier and the trigger/selector group, then add a drop-in sear. You can find details on the Web.

The gobmint considers the sear alone to be a "machine gun" so you will need a license to legally possess/use that part, but, last time I looked, all the other parts are legal. But it's been a while since I looked, so YMMV.
