Although its all parts instead of together, its all available at midway in stock as of now http://www.midwayusa.com/product/467621/dpms-bolt-component-kit-lr-308 http://www.midwayusa.com/product/416303/dpms-bolt-carrier-lr-308-matte http://www.midwayusa.com/product/992029/dpms-bolt-assembly-lr-308-matte

first I need to find someone that has anything in stock :D

that makes sense too. at least I can pick up a single stage press alone pretty cheap

Cool, thanks for the advice. I'll go with the hand primer, since at first i'm going to be a bit anal on inspecting used cases anyhow, so may as well. Any ideas on anyplace with small or large pistol / large rifle primers in stock ? I'd like to find 1 place that has primers + powder to avoid paying the $27.50 hazmat fee twice. I also need to check locally for sure.

a used lee pro 1000 press set up for 45 acp

its http://www.shadowopsweaponry.com/default.aspx but they don't have the special deals up on their site, its all on their facebook

I ended up catching an ebay auction that was going at a decent price on a lee pro 1000 press set up for 45 acp. paid $156 shipped for it. now the hunt for primers + powder begins

I agree, I want to see detail photos

I was pondering rotisserie cooking the turkey breast I bought for dinner tonight. still not sure on that.

I had one on order with harris too that I cancelled, and I felt bad. but the company manufacturing my lower offered a new package deal for a nib bcg for $185 with the lower...

sweet!

wish it was a nighthawk but I'll be adding a compensator, trijicon or fiber optic sights and maybe cerakote in fde

happened that in the local gun trader, I found someone today who had one of these they were willing to trade for my s&w era walther ppk/s, so I went for it

I saw that, and it is pretty sharp, but it seems everyone is asking rape grade prices for it in FDE. I am a little indecisive as to whether it really being a 1911 matters, or just a 45 (maybe 10mm).

everyone I know who has been inside says they feel like a little kid walking into a Toys-R-Us when they go in :D

If I was going into that price range, i'd probably just get an HK MK23. That STI Perfect 10 is a sweet pistol for sure though.

I wish I did. I have the distinct urge to go pistol shopping here http://www.shootersworld.com/retail/new-guns.aspx they opened up just a few months back and haven't been there yet

nah, this is her 401k we're cashing in :) besides, we're at hmm I dunno I think 18 years this august. The sigs are pretty interesting as they are available in the 2 tone dark earth/sand which is sharp.

Turns out that since I owe the IRS so much, I have to cash in a 401k to pay it. I figure I may as well cash the whole thing in, pay off some other debts and get myself a 1911 (and a reloading setup, but I asked about that separately). I do have a sort of small hand, the Ruger P series was fine for me though in 9mm. So far I was considering going low end on the base, and getting a rock island arms and then customizing, but I've always had a fond spot for Springfield too.

I don't really shoot a lot of volume (less than 200 rounds a month), so I don't want to spend big $$ on it and don't think I need a progressive setup. I'd like to get something inexpensive enough that I can load 357s + 308s with it and afford to run through more rounds at the range :D any particular suggestions? I'll be buying a 1911 pistol soon too, so I may end up getting it set for that too (may as well)

pictures! :argue:

I am seriously pondering getting one of their side charging uppers, that is just way too cool

no kidding.

A stupidly simple kitchen thing that I worked out over time was that if you are baking chicken (whether its breasts still on the bones, legs, whatever) making sure you keep a small amount of water in the bottom of the baking pan really helps keep the chicken moist. not enough to be boiling the chicken :D but 1/4 inch worth in the bottom, and check it every 15 min or so to see if you need to add more.

I may end up using one of those for my 300 blck whenever I get around to it. sort of rather have a carbine stock, but real issue will be it being as little $$ as possible for the project
