[Tony617]

I received my parts for my lower receiver. Building a FDE one. Bought the FDE parts kit but my lower is black and the upper receiver has FDE hand guards the but the rest of receiver is black. Not sure if want to put the FDE parts on the black lower.

I was going to get my lower receiver FDE, but after I got it all together, I love the fact that the buffer tube and the lower is black. It's a nice offset from the FDE.

I do have a black buffer tube instead of the FDE one but the ejection port, and forward assist and other items are black not FDE. I will take some pictures when I assemble the lower and post them. But it is easy to change the buffer tube from FDE to black one.

I have been eyeing that beauty! Enjoy, I love the 9x18 makarovs

Did SHPD buy a gun or something?
LOL I've been eyeing that beauty in SHPD's avatar.

I was on the penny Auctions from Bud's and I half won a S&W 380EZ Shield (I'm a sucker for 380's, this would make 12) and I realized that their new Buy it now price for me was just $123 more so I parted with the bucks and was expecting it, but they e-mailed me a 'so sorry' e-mail, that they were flat out and gave me a $385 credit on any of their existing inventory, don't know what I'll get.

ARPC show wasn't as good for sales as I was hoping, but I got some great deals and found the holy grail of colt parts...
It is the missing piece I've been looking for years to build my own Colt Delta HBAR...
I found the scope last year, the delta medallions online a while back...

but the cheek riser... authentic colt I thought an impossibility so I resigned to looking for suitable generic.
Low and behold hens teeth do exist! I found the real deal NOS!


Now I just need the lower receiver and a suitable trade to get my A2 upper back from my cousin and the AR15 I've been wanting since the day I found out it existed will be mine!

 

[titsonritz]

I got the birdcage flash hiders from Forward Controls and some other AR bits too.

How do you like the 6315(10)? What else did get from him? FCD is one my standard go-to guys, but I have not tried his MD yet.

Yeah, except for the upper & lower receivers, barrel, gas length system, stock, handguard, selector, mag release, charging handle, receiver extension, FCG, pistol grip, takeown & pivot pin, optic/sight configuration, magazine, sling setup it's almost a dead-on match.

 

[etrain16]

I got a little spring in the mail!!

These days I have to get excited even by the little things

 

[glockr]

I ordered a G40 MOS. Should be at my FFL by the end of the week. Now just have to decide between Trijicon and Leupold for the optic. Leaning towards Leupold mainly because it's about $100 cheaper. Sure miss the days when my eyes worked good enough to use open sights...

Forgot the triggerguard

Looks good, well engineered, but they are not on any thing yet. I have two Faxon black Gunner Barrels and a Shiny SS Barrel from who knows. I just shot my last build with a Faxon and a LanTac Muzzle brake. It was accurate, but I think the brake does little for me, but do garner some dirty looks from neighbors. I have another brake, but I will move back to birdcages.
When the A1's came out in late '67 for us, I was fascinated by the difference from our three prong. We guessed they did not want us using them to open a case of C's

Lol

Picked up a can of Hornady 155 GR BTHP .308 ammo at SW

 

[powermad]

Muzzle thingy finally showed up.


One day the A2 tube will show up and I can get this installed.

At least the QD cups showed up and I can get those installed.

I found a use for my 385 credit at Bud's, I found a new 7.5" Ruger Blackhawk in that very common 30 Caliber M1 Carbine, I have ammo for it. I want to shoot it and my 327 Federal Blackhawk to see which one is louder.
