Looks very nice. I wish I had the cake right now or I'd jump. With an over-budget addition going on, just can't choose that Sig over porcelain tile. :(
Paul: Thanks for the offer. I did things the "easy" way. Bought the upper and then parts. All I have left is to mill my 80% lower. First AR turned out great. This one is a 300BLK. What you are doing is nobel. Don't listen to the crickets who wish they were heard.
Ummm. The M45A1 is being replaced by Glock and Sig. Another one bites the dust.

Be careful with laser engraving. They "etching" has to be .003". A 100 watt laser won't get deep enough. I know. I have one. A CNC rotary engraver is what I used.
Alrhough there is work in FL, the pay is half of what it is in MD. My goal is to be back there in 10 years. Hopefully, one last time, saying goodbye to this socialist and progressive welfare state. I will come back to visit family and friends, but usually, it is them that visit me for a free...
To the OP. You mentioned semi auto... I have a Browning Safari Mark II with Boss that will work at 400 yards with any 180 grain bullet. With proper sling you should have no issues in the woods. Other than that, 6.5 Grendel gets another vote.

A good visual to see just how twisted politics are. Maryland learned well...
We have a near 5 yr. old grandson and In-laws requiring TLC that are here. That and good pay. We still have a residence in the Tampa Bay area which is where we will go back to in 5-10 years. It is never hot there. Lots to do. Plenty of sun, fishing, food and female tourists in bikinis....
I am in the construction industry.... have been since the 70's. You can find work in Florida. Too bad they don't pay you much. Hence, back to eating "real" blue crabs.
Greetings all. Nice to see it can be light in here. With that said:
1) I love beer.
2) I love my wife. (had to throw that one in for points)
3) I love my Street Glide.
4) I love good food
5) I love my guns and all they do.
6) Government math allows me to be 29 and have shot for 50 years.
I work...
I learned, when living in Florida, "safe rooms" are a truly viable option. They are solid concrete, steel reinforced and can't be drug anywhere. With that said, a chain is as strong as it's weakest link. My solution: Build a safe room, vault door for security, place it behind a false wall and...
Coming from someone who has grown up here, I doubt much will change as long as more and more Government workers are employed in this area and more and more people are receiving assistance from Government. When a party's stance is one of smaller Government, it makes it tough to appeal to members...
