I need an AR-15 magazine and a bore guide for cleaning by Sat. morning. Anyone have any ideas where to get them in the Boulder/Longmont/Denver area?

Thanks.

yeah I was trying to avoid that, but time was running out so I paid the piper.

I am a little pissed off though, I ordered a Stag arms lefty upper and they (Stag arms) sat on it for two weeks wating for some 10 round magazines to come in before they shipped it. I would still not have the upper if I had not called and told them to cancel the magazines from my order.

Kind of crappy sitting on a high dollar part waiting for some damn magazines to arrive.

WTF? Ten round magazines are illegal? Why?

I thought everything over 10 rounds was illegal during the AWB but why would they be illegal now?



Priceless. [roll] [roll] [roll]

yes I need some 10 round mags for High Power competition.
also need one of those fancy magazines for the single round loading during the slow fire portion.

EDIT: He he, I get it, that was funny.

20 round mags are the norm for high power. For service rifle, every mag you use has to look just like a GI 20 or 30 round mag or you get tossed in match rifle division. I cant remember if the BobSled is legal or not these days.

Maybe I am confused and I really need the 20's.
I just figured they were 10's since you don't shoot more than 10 at a time.
Are the 20's the "stadard" magazine?
Have to check that out.

Yup. 20's downloaded to 2 and 8.

If you are stuck without the right gear, PM me and I can get some to you before Saturdays match.

Thanks, but I don't have a match yet.

I just got the Stag Arms lefty upper in the mail a couple days ago and I wanted to shoot it Saturday. And since Stag couldn't get their act together and send my magazines I did not have any.

My other magazines are for the 243 WSSM rounds and I don't think they would work since the followers look different. I wanted to shoot the 243 in HP but the magazines only hold 7 max and I am unsure if you could load a 3 and 7 instead of a 2 and 8. Also, that 243 WSSM kicks pretty good and costs $$ too, so it is not the best choice for shooting 80 rounds.

I still need to free float the barrel and get a set of good sights for the Stag too.

Just what I needed another expensive hobby!
Between dirtbikes and HP shooting I am gonna be broke.

I took an intro class to HP shooting at the Boulder Rifle Club a few weeks ago, it was pretty fun.

Oh yeah, one more question, for the service rifle division does the rifle have to be "stock" or can you have a different butt stock and/or pistol grip?

I have this one:

Your lefty upper wont be legal in service rifle.

Match rifles shoot 5 and 5, so the max of 7 in a mag isnt a big deal.

Try looking around at www.nationalmatch.us for tons of good info on high power shooting.
