You must have cool neighbors. I wouldn't try an outside pic like that where I live.

I live in Oakridge OR.

"IF" there are any anti gun people here, they are definitely not openly anti gun (for safety reasons)

Where can I get more info on the mods, I understand the extended mag release but am a little new to the other mods?

This should help!

Good job Izzy, Thanks for all the info...
