My Guns Thread from start to future

[Picton]

I see these come up at rockislandauctions several times a year, a little too "space gun" for me but to each his own.

My son craves one. He’s eight years old. I told him to start saving now.

Lol!

Like I said, he can start saving now.

 

[DarkJoker33]

Meh ...

The MRI are more than just pistols, they are the perfect range clearing devices.

No one likes to shoot next to other people, so you take out the semi or revolver, fire a couple of shots, turn around and you have no one near you.

Except for @richc He is the one guy that never moved, and that is how we met.

I'd buy a double action revolver if they bothered to make it
MRI makes more than just s***** deagles LOL like I wouldn't buy most of the s*** they make but I would definitely buy one of their branded 1911s.

Honestly had no clue.
Never seen anything else besides deagles and mini deagles.

Almost 5 years ago I started watching trench guns, and could have gotten one for under 2k, but I waited. Now I still need one and I'll be lucky if it cost me 10k, saw one go for 12k, I can't see laying out that much. The lesson is, it's not going down in price. Buy it for yourself and tell him he can buy it from you when he has the money.

I love encouraging others to buy guns when I can't afford to do it myself. Why should I be the only one spending too much on guns

Go to their site, you can custom build DE and BFRs.

I actually would buy one, if they were under 1k. That’s an upper limit for me on a gun I don’t really want.

Did some stuff today.

Put together the 7.62x39 upper


Itll get fitted in the future with the typical accessories.

Swapped out the barrel and new hand guard on the .223 wylde

[DarkJoker33]

New piece of "gear" came in.
Hydration pack. Same company, same color(bad lighting) ranger green.
Can be attached to amap pack, or bladder can be installed in amap pack


Gotta grab a sawyer inline filter for it soon

[DarkJoker33]

Soft assembly. All hand tight.

 

[Soundwave]

That looks expensive!

 

[DarkJoker33]

As usual with me, I didn't keep track.

Dint take that as me being loaded with money. Because I'm far from it.
I just research what I want or things I like and aim to get them.

Sometimes I compromise other times i don't. I.e. the temporary tags

Predictions?
Yes the white bit is pvc pipe.

Yes I've tried both mesa tacticals stocks and 1 other.

I'm not about to spend $400+ for a proper benelli one.

This is from the panzer arms m4

Maybe I'll get the pvc piece made at machine shop

It as not that, that bother me.
It's the unknown of it working

That's what I mean. Just save up and buy the m4 if that's what you really want.

It never really was.
Originally I was going to get the 1301, but found this one 1200fp for half the price.
It's the grand pappy of the 1301.

I just wanted the stock and pistol grip setup.
And pic rail mount for a rdo one day

I'm also on the hunt for a $1301 but my spending needs to be reigned in!

 

[LakeTrout]

Have you shot any of the builds yet? Any range reports?

 

[DarkJoker33]

Since the barrel replacement on the .223 wylde (18 inch ballistic advantage to 20 inch shaw) not yet.

I did function test the 7.62x39 a few weeks back (time crunch)

The 308, I have not yet. Currently only have steel cased from when I had the G3 clone.

The .223 and 7.62x39, hopefully this weekend I'll get out

 

[DarkJoker33]

Small update.
Still haven't shot any from my last post.
But different stuff.

Scored a px4 storm slide on ebay for a deal. It'll be sent out in the future for a red dot and that small machined out sectioned filled.

Second,
The 6-8 week waiting period is over and the special order furniture came in


It's for the 7.62x39 ARAK

Before:

After:


Company for the product:

Blackwood Trading Co.
They included a good little note again apologizing for the wait. Additionally adding in a $20 off coupon code for the next purchase.

I have a couple more things on the way that i should have by the end of saturday with any luck and then 1 smaller "custom" piece for the beretta 92 maybe next week.

 

[DarkJoker33]

probably going to do a p365 next year with the grip module

 

[DarkJoker33]

New "custom" grips came in for the Beretta 92.
I'll be getting some for the 96 as well.


Also got my new holster for the Arex.
