See if you can swing by Larue's both and see if he's got the buckets of A.R.M.S parts

+1 to this. nothing has been released yet, no pics or anything! I want to see the pile..or truckload.

he said he has given out more than $100,000 worth of free mounts for the ARMS trade in

Word is Mark took the high rode and chose not to display all the broken mounts (also, he didnt have enough room for em all!)

But ARMS, on the other hand, has a beautiful plaque copy of their copyright on #17...

Okay, I haven't cared too much for any Glocks but my G20 for years but now, I absolutely must have a G17 Gen 4 with one of those Tactical Aiming Solutions sights. Damn! I may even have to upgrade my G20 Gen 3....

Thanks for all the great info!

The header for Day 3 says Day 2.

Thanks for taking the time to do this. Lots of drooling for sure.

thanks for some more great reviews. I want to try out the pistol sights that are like acogs. look kinda neat.

Ridge

Those are pretty nifty...look forward to today's special :)

I see a gen4 glock 30SF with that wicked TAS sight on it in my very, very near future. haha.

Thanks for the updates!

Anyone else think that new S&W Bodyguard 380 looks awesome?

Probably just my personal taste, but I'm pretty interested in snagging one of those.

Irving
01-25-2010, 09:08
I think it looks pretty dang cool, but if I were going to add another caliber to my collection, I'd make it .45 acp.

Well my immediate interest is in a Glock 30SF,

but good luck getting the ammo... that sells off faster than you can even think about buying it. haha

after that I'd like something like the S&W bodyguard .380... it'd be nice to have something for those hotter days when concealment gets more difficult.

Irving

I suppose if I had more funds, then the Smith Bodyguard would be something fun to pick up just because. I've got all of two hands guns, and one of them is an M&P so I'm not worried about a bad trigger, since I probably don't know what a good one feels like anyway. :p

Good Man! I will shamelessly admit to that being my favorite handgun caliber, with 10mm being a hair behind it. I like it so much that several years ago I got a conversion kit from Rhineland Arms to turn a 98 Mauser into a .45 ACP carbine that uses 1911 mags. One of these days I'll actually finish it....

(No good surplus Mausers were killed in the making of the carbine. I had a butchered Turk 38 that wasn't safe for full power cartridges.)

.45 ACP is my favorite handgun caliber for sure....

Not sure if I'd want in in a rifle though! haha.

My next rifle is definitely going to be something .308.... leaning towards an m14 but still considering some sort of AR-10 configuration...

Guess I worked the field backwards....

Have:
.22LR, 9mm, .45ACP, 12 ga. long gun, .308

Need:
5.56, and 12 ga. short HD.

By the way, recently got some work done to the .308. If there are any "real" shooters in the Springs area, I would love for you to try it out and let me know what you think. I can hit what I aim for but I ain't no Carlos Hitchcock.

You watched that sharpshooters show on the History Channel this weekend too Big Bear?


I don't even have an AR. I've never had one.

Neg, no cable.[BooHoo]

But I've read several books on him. Did they do a special or something?

I will have an AR (preferrable a Noveske 12 inch), but it's on the back burner right now. Other priorities exist. lol.

I figured that a 7 to 10 shot .45 ACP carbine would be a hoot. Especially since I had an otherwise useless receiver sitting around. When I'm done, it'll just look like a very short Mauser carbine, except for the 1911 mag and adapter underneath.

I went the M14 route, and I'm really happy with it. Of course, I have found myself lusting after a LWRC REPR lately.

Oh, and that was a cool special on Sharpshooters. They've done two or three, plus some on snipers, and they never fail to do a good job. My kids will stop whatever else they're doing and plop down with me to watch them.

I fixed it for you.

I thought about that, but if I was going to do something like that I'd probably put it on my .300 Fireball AR.
