Yah. Been browsing Brownells. I already have a Hogue soft rubber fore-end for it, though yes I’ve since seen those built-in flashlight fore-ends too. Its an attractive option.

Another easy option is one of those picatinny tube-mounts. Then I can use the same light as on my AR-15. Its got a simple thumb switch on the back. Mount it on the left side of the tube... And done.

Not sure. Gots options. That’s all part of the fun. :-)

No... I still have the gun, it was just the stock from blackhawk I had to send back. The factory stock is servicable enough.

Bring it on. :-)

She is a really interesting looking cat... lots of colors. The military could learn a lot about camouflage from her I think. :)

howzitshoot?

Last time I shot it (pre-mod) it shot straight and reliable. I haven't launched any lead post-mod, and need to zero the scope.

MI. Due to legalities, it's not rigged for folding, but I have the bits for it and if TSHTF I may implement 'em as legalities pale into insignificance in the presence of a credible threat. OTOH, I've gotten pretty good at feeding it from stripper clips and expect to leave it that way, as I find a big mag for .30 Commie unwieldy.

Yeah, I know it's 7.62x39mm, but I like calling it ".30 Commie".

fail owned pwned pictures
see more pwn and owned pictures

Almost as big a fail as the picture of a dead deer with the front half paved over, while the back half sticks into the median. I've been trying to find that picture again for ages.

At least I now know how those fancy new road signs work.

Cool. Now I wonder where the cards are inserted and what program is used to input the text.

This could be dangerous knowledge for someone with a lot of extra low-cap cards lying around.
