When I used mine for work most of the guys all had Dewalt so you throw your initials on your gear and if you need a battery or charger or something you just swap things around as you work and shit gets done. Kind of like using the same weapon systems on the battle field... but not really. lol
this set is just for simple work around the house here and there, nothing too demanding. I make sure I spend the extra money where I need to - Bought a dewalt sawzall for all the power glory, and then highest amp skill saw. These cordless things are more for me to be lazy instead of dragging out the corded drill.Quote:

You could probably get Dewalt gear for the same or less with a little effort. I just know I regret buying a bunch of Craftsman 19.2v stuff back in the day because it cost less & I was just using it around the house occasionally so no big deal, right? Wrong. It all started crapping out within a year or two which amounted to only a handful of uses. Pretty poor ROI. The term buy once cry once applies to power tools. Anyway, Rigid stuff isn't that bad so I'm not trying to tell you it's garbage just that you can get more reliable for not a lot more money. That stuff you got is better than the Craftsman crap I made the mistake of buying. lolQuote:

ahhaha.. never seen one before. First thought is WHY?! cuz M10 pistol grip is very uncomfy and cut your middle finger..but then again.. 'MERICA!!Quote:

I guess that's the point that it's helping make the most numerous single machinegun design in civilian hands usable for more than pistol calibers - it's not just M16 types that can shoot a bewildering variety of calibers, including rifle power centerfire. There are plans for other rifle caliber uppers than 5.56 in the future.Quote:

This spring and oprod modification has been done before for some of the "slowfire" pistol caliber conversions, as well.
I read up on it.. It makes sense.. $2000 upper on sub lower. Rather than a whole m16 for $25kQuote:

Also, while I bought it (LPK) a few weeks ago, this is the first gun I've ever built. Slowly but surely, I'm getting there.

New G-Shock w/Bluetooth so I can connect to my smartphone & control music player, volume & get alerts for email, text, and all sorts of customizable parameters.

Not nearly as fancy as yours, but just picked up a new G shock myself. Loving it so far.Quote:

I picked up a G Shock a couple months back and kicked myself for waiting so long.
I had a G-Shock years ago but after I bought my Tag (reward for achieving a personal goal) in 1999 I quickly realized I wasn't going to be wearing it. I've wanted another & this one w/Bluetooth seemed like the logical choice given when I'd be wearing it. This will give me control of my music when I'm doing active activities & such. There was another G-Shock I wanted but they're going for $2k and I couldn't justifying anywhere near that price tag for a 'beater' watch.
Picked this up from Gunbroker. Excellent trap gun and can't wait to get back into it!

I had no idea G shocks got that high in price. Mine retails for $125 and I thought that was a lot for a Casio. Shows how much I know about watches lol.Quote:
