My Guns Thread from start to future

[DarkJoker33]

Another haul came on today.



The romeo5 is the xdr varaiant thats a green dot as well as green triangle of death. Think predator lazer sight.
Got them for the cx4's.

Got tmy first geisselee part and slapped it in the new build. Spring only.

And lastly, the gg&g flashlight mount for my usp.
So i can mount a tlr7a vs the tlr3.
I like the 7a's switch. better

 

[DarkJoker33]

Well, I ditched the recover tactical flashlight adapters for the Beretta's and picked up the tdi mount that grabs on the trigger guard instead.

Removed the Bushnell match pro scope from the Grendel upper and is up for sale/trade here:
Click me for sale link
New optic system is on the way for the 6.5 grendel and for the 45-70. Should be in mid to late this week.
Changed the Buttstock back on the AR to the ab arms sniper x. (Pictured earlier in this thread) and modded it some.
Changed the charging handle from the all in 1 chin weld one to a side charging unit. (6.5 grendel upper pictured)


Thats about it. Will post new optics later when they come in.

 

[DarkJoker33]

So, new optics day.
I quickly found out that I bought the wrong mount for the 45-70.
It's a bit higher than I'd like. So I'll have to snag a new one at some point.

[DarkJoker33]

So new things.

Snagged a centurion slide for my 92. But from a 92x rdo.
Also got the beretta red dot mount and 92x performance sear.
The last 2 are a Volker precision flat trigger and nifty grip screws.


So sadly, the 92x performance sear worked, but disnt work for me. After installation, I found out that it eliminated the decocker function.
My guess is its all because if that little extra tab and because the 92x performance is a different safety style.
It essentially makes it more of a 1911 style where you have to lower the hammer.



Nifty little grip screws I found on etsy or ebay. I cant recall which. Thought it was a nice little touch to finish it off.



Beretta flat trigger on the left , Volker on the right.
You have to modify the beretta one, otherwise it stays double action only.
Volker is a drop in and even though that both sit in almost rhe same position in double action, the thinness of the Volker makes it easier to reach similar to the Wilson short reach.
The Wilson short reach is still shorter,but curved.
Have not shot the volker yet.


Lastly, the centurion slide with the beretta Edo mount. Length difference shown.

Volker trigger vs beretta mounted.

 

[DarkJoker33]

Let's make sure I understand your thinking: you already gave your money to a company whose business decisions you don't support, so now you've given your money to another company, and this is supposed to hurt the former how, exactly?

My latest AR build has a complete Aero upper. I needed the atlas handguard wrench tool and soon realized they won’t ship ANYTHING to MA. I recall doing the online chat with customer support and I told them that’s ridiculous and the service rep said “I know!”

Needless to say I had the wrench tool shipped to the UPS Store in Salem NH. Only 15-20 min from my work. Ways around shipping issues

 

[DarkJoker33]

like buying from vendor that ship to mass i know.
Thats how i got both

They don't ship to MA because the laws in the state are f***ed, it's not worth the trouble. Doesn't say a thing about the company other than they don't want to deal with the bullshit.

Nice. In my case Aero was the only source for the wrench tool

There plenty of other companies that ship to mass.
So ill decide to shop with them instead.

Its that simple.

 

[Soundwave]

I'll take the BA barrel off your hands!

 

[DarkJoker33]

Ok. Want the aero xl upper as well?

 

[Soundwave]

Yes

 

[DarkJoker33]

Yes

Okie dokie.
As soon as i get the muzzle device depinned and such, ill give you a holler via pm.
Rough time frame is maybe 2 weeks.

I think the barrel type i got is in this thread someplace most likely.


Edit. Post 301

 

[Soundwave]

Already found it. It's exactly what I have in my KAC SPR build.

And plenty who don't, probably all comes down to who got threatening letters from your Attorney General and their risk tolerance. Is kinda like shaming a buddy who won't drive after 2 beers.

Bottom line - it's your state that has the bullshit laws. That's what to take a stand about and your threatening AG, not a good company they scared off.

Regardless of that - I never buy Aero stuff from Aero, it's cheaper from other retailers, many who do ship to MA I'm sure.

People say the same about PSA, others, I'm not into that brand but it's equally as silly. You gotta realize your state is one of the 5 or so worst in the country.

 

[Broc Tuah]

OP, when are you going to join the Magnum Research club?

 

[DarkJoker33]

OP, when are you going to join the Magnum Research club

Probably never.
Not to much interest in a deagle.
In all honesty, if im going to drop $2k + on a pistol, it'll be a staccato, mk23 or that other wishlist gun i want that i cannot remember the name of at the moment.

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.

Their 1911 is so nice dude ... so smooth.

A double action revolver would be sick. That and a half cock on their BFR.

Maybe they can make a double action 1cm revolver.

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