Aside from having a grand old time and making several people laugh till they were out of breath (A huge compliment, thank you all) I snagged a copy of the 10th edition of “Cartridges” from Tam, which is way better than my dog eared Third edition, and I saw a big old wad of cartridges from Dave L at Cancer Ward (Sorry, I got the guy and the link wrong earlier) who was offering for collectors. He had some great stuff, but all calibers I already have, so maybe some of you could do some horse trading with him.
I intend to take this through it’s first iteration as a full length 15, with a standard barrel, flattop reciver, and one of those Bushnell Facogs. I’ll buy innards where I find them cheaply, and no doubt I’ll fart around with stocks & stuff.
I won’t be making anything special, just a gun to shoot and have fun with. What I want to know from you lot, is what non-major-expense item do you find indispensable? In other words, is the $17 dollar Whizbang Ambi safety a billion times better than the $11 “regular” safety? Is the trigger group from CMMG smoother and crisper out of the box than the similarly priced one from Bingbong Industries? Can I buy an indestructible barrel for $12 more than the barrel I’ll have to replace 20 times?
These are my burning questions, and I welcome all information.
Same tired old chestnut. Red staters are dumb and don’t know how to govern properly.
Look, folks, if what we got is ‘Smart”, I’ll take an extra helping of “Dumb” ok?
