I have this on my AR15... https://www.primaryarms.com/Primary_Arms_1_6X_Scope_with_Patented_ACSS_Reticle_p/paps1-6x.htm My #1 choice for a budget rifle.

My bet for contenders on the DoD contract, will be mostly Sigs, Glock and Springfield. MY LIST: (in no particular order) Glock G21SF Springfield XDm Sig P227 Sig P320 Sig P226 Mk25 If Detonics pulls their thumb outta their azz, they might make the list as well... but they'll eventually lose out unless they agree to sell their design to a larger company... The 1911 and the M9, in their original forms, are to antiquated to continue into the next generation.

The "more rounds" argument is almost moot nowadays. Modern .45's (like Glock, STi, Springfield and FN) are loading 13 to 15 rounds per mag. Especially with the smaller 9mm's only holding 15-17. NATO is regulated to "non expanding" ammunition, which makes a 1300fps 9mm into a high speed ball point pen. The 9mm is 0.355" in diameter, in comparison to the .45ACP which measures .452 in diameter. That's a full tenth of an inch, add to the fact that twice the weight is flying in that .45 Cal proj. Don't read from me that I'm knocking the 9mm. I love the round... for Law Enforcement... where there are no Geneva designated "Rules of Engagement"... and a 147gr Ranger T-Series will open someone up like artillery fire. The 9mm, the .45, the .40, the 10mm, the XXX magnum +p+ super whatever, the .22 short.... they all kill you dead. It's more of the, "what will a wounding shot do?" Especially since there are a significant number more wounds than deaths. Personally, I'm just one tick away from trading my P220 in for a Mk25. I'd be swapping 8/10 round .45 mags for 20 round 9mm.... that's a metric shiit ton less reloads.

I have the X300 Ultra on my .45 GREAT LIGHT

Remington sent one of their guys to James Yeager's fighting rifle school. He's been swapping between the GII and the AAC MPW. They are documenting the whole thing on YouTube.

I want a Surefire PX3 Fury next. 1000 Lumens of retinal destruction!

New paint and new tires doesn't make a new car... looks like an M9 to me. DoD flat out said, if you bring a 9mm or .40 to the table, you'd better bring shock and awe with you. I don't see this being able to outshine the P226 Mk25. With all the new .45's coming out it really has its work cut out for it.

Another "fun" build would be in 5.45x39 or 7.62x25. The parts are fewer to come by, but the ammo is even cheaper... edging close to .22lr prices. RMWXTREME makes a 7.62x25 upper that is supposed to be pretty slick.

Pictures are still to come. Getting the lower I want (in California) is like asking for divine intervention.

I've been thinking about using a hyperfire trigger. I like the idea of the extra hammer strength for the steel cased ammo. Those communist primers can be extra thick.

Spoken like a true guinea wop dago bastard. I love this guy!

Damnit!!! You posted that picture just to rub that barrel in my face.

For me it's about the cast shadow from the light alongside the barrel. My next build will put the light at the 12 o'clock.

Ps. I've built a couple of these, and they are über fun and inexpensive to feed.

It's going on an AR15 lower. Likely an AXTS lower if possible... Otherwise I see an LWRCi in the future. ASC and Stoner both make a 7.62x39 specific magazine.

Unlike in the 5.56, Wolf isn't always powerful enough to cycle the 7.62. Just a fair heads up. I never recommend steel ammo. Not because of the additional wear, but because of the underpowered loads. Ymmv

No worries Moose. We've all done it.

You can try... but it does make the love awkward.

What bastard would do such a thing? It looks as if "someone"... I don't know who... was learning the system and just hit a bunch of numbers. Who would do such a thing?

You're thinking of a one man response... imagine eight guys flooding a room, all of them with strobes.

That's awesome. It shows you must be doing something right.

It's a Seth Rogan film. I'll wait till its on HBO... like I did with all his movies.

If it's smaller than your pecker, it's likely the small pin. If it's bigger than your pecker.... don't tell anyone!!! Lol. I'm kiddin. Only Colt (that I'm aware of) used those large pins. There's 99.99% chance (as long as you didn't buy a Colt) that you only need the small pins for most of the rifles out there.

Less than 10 people banned in the last 4 years. (That doesn't count the "Bots" that we catch and ban)

A seizure is definitely disorienting. ..
