Help Building an AR in 308
The DPMS "pattern" and parts for it tend to be more widely available. Decide on a "pattern" and just make sure every part you buy is compatible with that pattern by verifying it with product description, call the retailer, or ask on the forum. Even then, sometimes you run into problems like... -

Effect of new MD laws on Beretta Cx4 Storm rifle?
My parents who live in MD bought a Cx4 Storm 9mm that came with 2 17-rd mags over 2 years ago. They bought it because it was not on the restricted list. What do/will they need to do to keep it legal under the new MD law, if anything at all? Thanks, Al -

The Official AR-15 Picture Thread
Nice collection! I've been very tempted to do a Slidefire build. I've also been back and forth with a 300BLK build, but the ammo just kills the idea for me each and every time. Al -

Thanks! Your build is nice as well, especially with all the BCM parts. I have a midlength BCM barrel and VLTOR parts I'm gathering to do a build for my boy (he's only 5...months old, but hey, it's never too early right?:D). I got REALLY lucky with the Vortex/ADM on ARF.com, by the way. Paid... -

Philadelphia bans guns in city parks
Philly has changed dramatically, especially in the past 10 years. I grew up in Frederick and came here for school then stayed. Been to 46 countries, 150+ cities and Philly is still one of my top 10 cities to be in. I love it here. Let me not remind you that you are in MD. Now with the new...- mythaeus

The Official AR-15 Picture Thread
After a lot of buying and selling the past 3 months, I have enough parts "left over" so I decided to do another build. This is my favorite so far. It's lightweight and has a lot of parts not typically seen. This is essentially a "panic" build since every component was bought during the panic... -

Curmudgeon, are you and your wife coming down for this? Haven't see you for a while. I'll be OC'ing, which I never do, to the Love Park event then march to People's Park for the Gun Rights Across America event...- mythaeus

1-4 Optic for AR15
Order placed. Will let you guys know how it turns out. I went on Nikon's website to look at the free mount special and found a list of authorized dealers. It turns out that SportOptics.com has the M-223 1-4x Point Blank for $246.36 with free shipping. That's the lowest I could find by $40... -

1-4 Optic for AR15
Thanks for all the info guys, I really appreciate it! A couple of questions since midway ran out of mounts and I just realized that the one on sale is BDC 600, not Point Blank. 1. Are you talking about Point Blank or the BDC 600? I'm guessing PB since it's "standard duplex with dot". 2... -

1-4 Optic for AR15
I'm THIS close to getting the M223 from Midway because it's such a good deal. The only thing that is holding me back is sight acquisition speed compared to any red dot. Can either one of you expand on this? Mark, how "quick" is quick compared to red dots? Thanks, Al -

Take me to revolver school!
Nothing wrong with the fine 1911 round or the revolver. Putting them together and making it the first I find it to be "unnatural". We can go all day on our opinion of this, but you're not gonna change my perception. I've shot SA's before. I like them, but find them clunky to operate overall... -

Take me to revolver school!
"A first" was the operative words. I'm sure the 625 wasn't Miculek's first. ;) I think the 9mm/357 convertible is a great option (next on my purchase list). It's debatable though that I'd make an SA revolver my first. The DA revolver is more "modern" and is a more common, relatively speaking...
