I love the MVP rifles. I'd like to go after the 16" threaded barrel 300BLK version.

Didn't paint that XDs. That just shows the two colors I've got on the way from Brownells - Dark Earth and Burnt Bronze - bot on the same pistol. I will paint my XDs just like that, though, and the XD-45, too. The Dark Earth is going on all those ugly gray parts on old Sexual Chocolate, there.

Here's the Hazard4 Plan B pack - this is what I always have on me whilst riding the GSX-R2000. Quite the surprise as to what it can contain, yeah? 7.5" AR, folded. Yes, that fucking wall is OD, and the carpet is FDE - I have other FDE walls in the house to make up for that OD wall... :fawkdance:

Pimp this thing. Gen III is on the way. My original order was for Gen I, when introduced. They devised Gen II during my order, and I received some of the first Gen II adapters. Gen III looks damn good. Here's what it really excels at, and the very reason for it's being:

Yep - the adapter turns the 11.5" into "Firearm." No longer a "pistol" in the eyes of my brothers a BATFE, based on their own 26" definition. <thumbsup>

I had almost a whole series completed whilst in the lovely land of South Korea, and they fucked up my shot records. Something with the stamp, not the shots. Arrived back in the Land Of The Free, and had to start that $hit over again, because if that "stamp." Even my individual shot record wasn't enough to appease the shot-gun-happy medics at Ft Lewis, upon my return. Double Dose. I'm blaming everything on this. When I lose my $hit here, it's because of those fucking Anthrax shots. <dontknow> Brace yourselves, men. :banana: I feel my Anthrax acting up again. Seriously, though - research as much as you can about the stuff in the PI, starting Jan 2002. The Palawan Kidnappings were in May 2001. I can only say so much about it. One day, I may be able to post pics.

This thread is SO fitting, brother. You seriously need to post up some of your race pics. I'm not kidding. Just give a sample. Or 20... <thumbsup>

Then, get to it and BAN his a$s already!... <lmao>

This thread need to go before she sees it - she's been working her a$s off with zero days off now, for about 2.5 months. Her "off days" at work are mid-week now, but she's still in school M~F. So, no days off. Get this thread outta here before she logs back in, you buncha rat bastards! I'm WAY MORE POOR when she sees that rail... :rant2:

Doesn't change too much when heated. I'll tell you, though - Patriot Brown looks almost black in the bottle, unless you really eyeball it. Everything is "lighter" once it's baked - for the bake-on stuff. The air-dry stuff pretty much looks like it does in the bottle, once cured. Pics 1, 2, and 3 below are how bad this stuff came out. Woulda been a GREAT mix to use for a "light gray" on her 300BLK Ghost Gun. Not so well on old Sexual Chocolate, here. Sucks. I learned something, though - Snow White is NO JOKE!!! :eek: Don't get crazy if you're using that stuff to cut colors!~!! :bat: :hail: Pic 4 below is my rescue, on the way from Brownell's, as we speak. There's enough of it to fix this rifle. There's probably enough of it to spray a couple Springfields, too. I think the XD-45 and XDs are gonna GET IT!

^^^ Looks like Instigator is caught instigating. Again. <lmao>

$hit, I'm just happy that we're talking about the accuracy of a .308AR in the "Accurizing the .308AR" section... <lmao>

Finally got some new pistol pics tonight, as I was FIVE MONTHS late getting info into another thread. You magically appeared in my mind at that time, too... :banana: :love4: <lmao> With the Law Tac Folding Stock Adaptor, I'd safely call the 7.5" pistol (from bare barrel end to back of receiver extension) a 23 1/4" length. The 11.5" pistol comes in with similar measurements, and I'd say it's 27 1/4" total length, bare barrel. Pics:

Watching thread patiently, for pics of issues... <munch>

Wow, took me 5 months to find the answer... Spike's T2 in the 7.5" pistol, and H buffer in the 11.5 pistol. Keep in mind, both those buffers are working with the extra weight of the added bolt carrier adapter of the Law Tac Folding Stock Adapter. That thing is made of steel, and it's got some weight to it, also. I think you could easily run the H3 buffer in a 7.5" pistol with the KX3 on the end of it. Worth a shot.

Scary - now - to look at this news article from late 2010. So many people had no idea what was going on over there, or that we were even there in the first place - let alone, what we were accomplishing there, and why we were there... http://www.nbcnews.com/id/39444744/ns/world_news-asiapacific/#.VB-fXhbncxE

Fukc, the EOTech lived. It survived the heat, which I expected, but $HIT!@ I mixed up some patriot Brown, and "lightened it" a little with the left-over Snow White. Well, I added a little Snow White while mixing it, and it didn't change a damn thing. I added a little more Snow White, and it didn't change a damn thing. I added a LITTLE MORE SNOW WHITE... and it looked good in the bottle. I shot the parts, baked them that night. They came out light gray. Fucked the whole thing up. Just ordered some more Cerakote tonight, picked a few colors, and will have some interesting $hit coming up. Hopefully, I'll have the new paint by Wednesday, and I can paint it on Thursday. I' tired of this gun being apart. I'll post a pic of how fucked up it turned out - when I'm not so bummed about it.

I haven't seen one on the firing line, so far. Doesn't mean you can't do it, brother. You talking about the PISTOL?! Most Appleseeds are shot at the 25 yard line, on the AQT Target, going to a simulated 400 yards: Top row: standing 2nd row: kneeling 3rd row: sitting 4th row: prone Time limits on each row. 10 rds per row. Scored in order of target. Top row: all 10 in the one target 2nd row: 5 and 5 3rd row: 3, 3, 4. Don't shoot 4 in the 1st or 2nd target - those highest counting "extra holes" in those ones won't count. 4th row: 2, 2, 3, 3, - Don't mess that up, either. Highest scoring ones are out, if you didn't fire the right amount per target. Time limits: 1st row: 2 minutes 2nd row: 55 seconds 3rd row: 65 seconds. 4th row: 4 minutes. You engage each row with two magazines, loaded 8 rounds and 2 rounds - so you MUST do a mag change in each stage. Synopsis: Top row target 100 yards. 10 rounds, 2 mags, loaded 8 & 2. Standing position, 2 minutes to shoot. All 10 in 1 target. 2nd row targets 200 yards. 10 rounds, 2 mags, loaded 8 & 2. Kneeling position, 55 seconds to shoot. 5 in each target. 3rd row targets 300 yards. 10 rounds, 2 mags, loaded 8 & 2. Sitting position. 65 seconds to shoot. 3 in target 1, 3 in target 2, 4 in target 3. 4th row targets 400 yards. 10 rounds, 2 mags, loaded 8 & 2. Prone position. 4 minutes to shoot. 2 in target 1, 2 in target 2, 3 in target 3, 3 in target 4. Must score 210 or above to earn your RIfleman Patch. First 3 rows are scored as marked, 4th row is double points. Have fun! See you in Oct and Nov!!!

11.5" does great at 100, brother. 7.5" won't do too bad at 100, either. You just lose alot of MV through the 7.5 stuff, which definitely does have an effect on bullet fragmentation.

You bring up a good point, and I concur whole-heartedly. 100% and then some. This point you made is excellent. You need to create a First Reponder. Not talking "First Responder" in the medical-training sense - but they need that, too. You need someone to be able to respond to an attack quickly. VERY quickly. The faster the better. There is nobody closer to the situation in a school, than the personnal employed in that location, and present right then. So, the list of things that you mention are ALL training aspects that they need. In light of this, and on to another point that you make - maybe we need to look at the people we hire as "teachers." Wimp-a$s liberal, granola-crunchin', gun-hatin' weenies would not meet the minimum criteria. By default, from a military-recruitment standpoint, those ones would be classified as "Conscientious Objectors." Nope, disqualified - you can't serve. You can't serve in the military like that, and you can't serve as a teacher like that. I don't know here - maybe that's what needs to be done. What's happening isn't going to stop. No way. It's going to increase, as the very moral fiber of this country deteriorates. We protect our leadership and our future with firearms. Politicians, Money, ACTORS... other Celebrities... What we really need to do is protect our future. Our children are our future - nothing else is.

Montana, what did you hit for a final length on it, back-of-receiver-extension to tip-of-bare-barrel? LAW Tactical folding stock adapter adds 1.5", just sayin'. <thumbsup>

Two in the... Wait! What?!

I've got plenty - those times are right before and right after the Halloween trip. And right before T-Day, too. I want to hit both trips. Save the money, and pick a rifle - or shoot the Cricket!!!

See what surfing on your phone - in bed - gets you?... :bat:

Lehman does do a HD trike kit. The Victory Vision Lehman trike is crazy...
