I have whatever version of the magpul acs that doesn't have the little doors. It just has the tube storage. I like it.

It's an STR.

I really should get a second one for my other AR.

The UBR is heavy. It can work for some rifles but not all. I like the ACS-L. It still have the nice cheek weld but a little more simple design, unless you specifically want the storage area.

So just bought my 1st pistol, S&W M&P9 2.0. I might be getting a 2nd one in the future as well. Any suggested fireproof safe than can hold 2 pistols and some ammo?

Just because. 1944 Remington Rand M1911A1. Ammo is also WWII lot but haven't fired it because they have corrosive primers. Field jacket is 80's vintage, a little different from the WWII version.

how much room do you have and how much do you want to spend? id buy bigger than you think you will need if you have the room and budget. i thought my first gun safe was going to be good. that didnt last long.

I bought a raffle ticket for $20 and won this Eagle Arms AR15. It's a bit tacky, but it came with all of the stock furniture. Had to pay the $5 background check and sales tax. Total cost is $58.90.

Well I ended up getting the Hornady RAPiD Safe 2700KP

I will in the future end up buying a large safe as I might have one or two rifles in the mix.

I picked up a Sig P365 yesterday. Going to get some range time and it will be replacing my G43 as my EDC.

I want to jump on this, but I have never run it through my MPR to see if it likes it. Is this quality ammo?

I've shot many many hundreds of PTAC and never once had an issue.

I think WWB is the only centerfire ammo that I've had issues without.

.22 remington buckets have a few crappy ones too

Range trip this afternoon. Lots of good news!

First, i swapped bolt carrier groups in my ARs to see if that could help the accuracy problemsi was having. It definitely seemed to help. Now I'm not sure ifi should buy just a bolt, or a whole bolt carrier assembly.

I'm happy with this group for now:

I shot my Howa for the first time as well, and I'm super impressed with that rifle. It printed this group in the lower right at 200 yards (you can see by the other groups how windy it was):

https://i.imgur.com/iEHStWW.jpg

I have a feeling that with more magnification, less wind, and less rush (trying to shoot when it was calm) it could do even better.


Last thing, i ordered a magpul mag for my 26 to try out. It this thing is reliable, it could be the cat's pajamas. It's an extra 2 rounds, gives more room for your pinky, and doesn't protrude too much.

Here it is compared to my 19.

What's a ballpark value for an early Chinese AK?
