  1. Im with rangerdavid on this one. Just finished up my build from the group buy. Still need to put in a bullet guide and in time the barrel will get threaded.... Oh yeah, she's Dimpled X'ed and Y'ed More pics to come on Sunday after the weekend.
  2. Two stories and three different shops. One shop (Shop A) was the place where I bought a pistol for "work purposes" which requires plenty of night hours. After about a week I decided I made a mistake and should have ordered it with night sights. Going back to the shop I asked the owner, a former police armorer if he could install them for me. His response was, "why do you need night sights?" I told him he must be the wrong man for the job and had the guy (Shop down the street do it. More recently, last friday, I picked up a Smith 442 centennial for a new backup. The shop (Shop C) was v
  3. After getting the ACE folder I cannot picture going back to a regular stock anytime soon. Regardless, I have seen replacement rear tangs for sale through k-var and others. Looking at the rifle it should be easy enough to replace.
  4. I got a letter from the IRS today explaining the rebate and how I should expect mine by May 16th. My last two digits are between 52 and 63 which was originally slated for June 20 delivery.
  5. ZOMG absolutely amazing! I second the bad timing on just pre-mothers day arrival but it looks like it is going to be a long night, lol.
  6. Got the remaining parts today! Kits will go out this afternoon! Thanks for being patient, Jake I got an email with the tracking info this afternoon. Thank Jake.
  7. Second on the woodland. Judge, Here is a link with a bunch of different camo patterns. http://www.troph-e-shop.com/en/en_tarnmuster.es
  8. I have a Smith M&P 40 and on one occasion during my initial break-in of it I bought a box of Wolf to see how it would function...or rather should I say dysfunction. Now that I have over 1,000 rounds through it I plan on grabbing another box of the steel stuff (yeah, I'm a glutton for punishment) to see if it will run flawlessly.
  9. 25 isnt bad but thats on the other side of bear mountain?? $10 just to cross the bridge round trip and $5.50 to cross the Hudson roundtrip... The transfer situation on Long Island really is quite a shame/scam......its cause they know no one wants to leave the island to get a transfer. Its too damn expensive to cross all the bridges. Nice looking out though Taurus. I once got a transfer done at a little shop in the Catskills that was near a place I would camp at.
  10. Ill tell ya what...that rifle looks sharp. Simple, smooth and everything blends well. Very NICE
  11. Oh good to hear. I have got a two gun tactical shoot coming up later in May. I was hoping to bring the Saiga and leave the AR at home. Its looking like that will be the case.
  12. I am looking at the Smith and Wesson M&P340. It is a 357 J-Frame and has night sights on it.... Plus, it would compliment my M&P40 fullsize very well.
  13. Worst: Keltec P3at 380. That thing refused to feed any decent defensive rounds. FMJ rounds would usually cycle. Best: Smith and Wesson M&P 40, had it for 14 months now and she has been carried daily and shot often. Best for the money: Hi-point 9mm carbine. Dat gun is the schizzzit it go bop bop ery time i pull da trigga
  14. If I recall correctly, the going rate for transfers out there on Long Island was around $50.00 for anything that got shipped in!!! $25 for face to face. The transfers and shipping costs were why I bought locally. As a side note, Ive moved from the Island and out of NY since but I hope that you found the above helpful.
  15. One thing that I can say about T&T is that Marty may be a little rash at times but he does have a good business head on his shoulders and is usually willing to negotiate on price-- With T&T I found it especially helpful if you put an amount of ammo on the counter and say that you want the Saiga for X-dollars like Y-place is selling them for. If he cannot do it politely put the ammo back on the shelf and say you unfortunatly won't be needing it and thank him for his time. Money talks...Cash is King. I got mine from him for under 3 bills and then I had him cut me a break on a Plano h
  16. Well, pictures are what sell. Ill collect my 10% percent sales-helper commission once you send it off. Nah, I am interested in buying but I am not sure how it will fit in my hand--you know what I am saying? The work looks well done though and I love the trigger undercut. Has the handgrip been stippled or is that one of those slip on texturizers?
  17. That Looks Sharp! Make sure to add it to the "stickied" photo topic.
  18. Michael Savage had this article linked up on his site today. The least that the Army should have Colt do is go to a gas piston setup...well, the least they could do is improve their quality control but we all know that is a different story.
  19. Well, Ron Paul isn't happy with it... And Im not happy either--I had my one year review at work today and my first raise... 42 cents an hour, whoopie stinking doo. I guess it pays to show initiative, come in early, stay late, be a role model for new employees and be employee of the month...yada yada.
  20. I got a Colonial M724 which is a nice little auto-opener at the Army Navy store around here for $40! The M724 is an updated version of the classic Paratrooper switchblade. The Colonial Knife Company M724 is definately a knife worth having. The M724 has a classic sliding safety and lanyard loop for attachment to duty equipment. Each knife incorporates a folding line-cutter blade designed to sever webbing or parachute risers during an emergency situation. The hook design of this blade prevents cutting injuries when webbing or clothing needs to be cut next to skin. The M724 features polym
  21. Saigaboy didnt write the above, but HELL...doesnt classic understand 922r??? I mean come on you certainly can use foreign wood if the rest of the rifle is made here in the Great States! This article is full of it, and thats all ive got to say. Edit to include: Furthermore, Romania has been a part of the UN since December of 1955!! And, was welcomed into NATO by Bush in November of 2002!
