New Acquisitions for March 2012

[rrogan]

I get to start off this thread and show off my first purchases since getting my LTC yesterday...

Stopped by Four Seasons today and picked up a Ruger 10/22 with scope, Ruger MKIII, and a Sig P229 9mm. I think that should be sufficient to get me started.

Well that tends to happen when a lot of towns in this state jerk you around for a few months or whatever. Gives you a lot of time to save up cash.

The week when my first LTC went active I think I bought 3 handguns, a P7M8, a P239, and a P226.

Not only this, but I've had my CT LTC for almost 2 years now but never got around to buying anything because I was in school in Mass still.

No photo, but I picked up an LC9 this morning at FS. I couldn't resist the price drop to $329, and the 2 for 1 holster deal was pretty sweet too.

And the best part - my NICS check got approved without delay for the first time in like 7 purchases.

I haven't shot it yet, but I've been carrying it around the house and practicing my draw. It's a very comfortable gun to conceal.

 

[Alchemist27]

Just picked this up from North Shore Firearms.

Never owned a 1911 until today. Was always told everyone should have one.

I forgot, I also installed this safe behind my bedroom door yesterday, which was also March. I am keeping my SR9 in there. The flashlight came today as well.

The safe is a Stack-On drawer safe that I mounted sideways and lagged onto a stud. Instead of a number, I used a pattern for the combo, so I can easily open it in the dark.

That's cool. Novel use for a drawer safe.

Got a new upper for my SBR today. It's an AAC 9" in .300 AAC Blackout. I drank the koolaid and picked this up ... can't wait to see how she does. Unfortunately i'm in MA so the suppressor is forbidden . Larue mount is on order for the Micro T1 so that'll get raised up a bit to co-witness with the backup irons.



And before the mall ninjas chime in yes it's a preban receiver so I can have the flash hider and collapsible stock.

Haven't been on the forum in a several weeks and what's the first thing I see...

Absolutely beautiful rifle, Matt! Lou did an excellent job! Loving the Seekins Precision lower and Troy VTAC TRX Extreme in the burnt orange! Nice!

VERY happy to be able to contribute to this thread again. Just picked this up yesterday ... haven't gotten it to the range yet (but I will this weekend), but I LOVE it. Fits my hand great, just love the look & feel of it. Only my second firearm and I've already caught the 1911 bug! Pic by herself and then one with my current carry, two-tone Ruger SR9c.

March is a good month. Here is a pic of my new acquisition. Some pics of the box for teasing. Looking forward to strip it and take some naked pictures.

Spent a little money at Remsport this past week John is a top notch, interesting, solid guy and I will definitely make the 2+ hour drive west to see him again when I need something.

LRB lower, standard parts kit and trigger. ACE/ARFX whatever they're called now stock, stainless barrel which was rifle length, but he cut it down so that it's about 16" (17" overall with Carlson mini-comp) but it retains the rifle-length gas system. Midwest Industies T-12 free-float handguard. Magpul MOE pistol grip. No brand name visible on the bipod, but it seems to be a decent quality...probably not going to have it on there all the time.

Magpul vertical fore-grip and a few packages of XTM rail covers should be coming today. Then it's figure out a sling configuration and optic. The sling mount on the ARFX stock is threaded into it. I'd like to replace it with a Q.D. recepticle of some sort, or else I'll probably have to change the end of one of my one point slings to work with it. Or I may get a front sling mount for the rails and use a two point with it. Not sure yet...the rifle hasn't told me what to do yet

Might swap the iron sights too. The front is a YHM flip and the rear is a decent quality no-name flip with A2 dual aperature. Might get the matching YHM rear, or buy a new matched set of some kind. Leaning towards Eotech 552 for the optic.
