Hi, NEWB here from Kalifornistan

Hi Guys, & Gals too???

So hey I like this site. Have been reading and enjoying the content you guys contribute, right on!!

Yeah so I'm from the S.F. Bay Area and I gotta tell ya', there are commies all over the place. I dunno but I think they came from the east coast and China  <dontknow> whatever...

Anyway here I am  <thumbsup>

So okay I am in the middle of my LR-308 build so here's the list  <munch>

JD Machine's upper & lower set. Looks real nice. I went to a gun show over here at the Cow Palace in S.F. JDM had a real nice display, maybe the nicest one there. They showed off all their cool ish. Real nice receivers and I like the hand guard tubes too, so I bought one 14".

You know what I was dead set on the Mega Arms MATEN matched set but at the gun show the FFL (and they are located like 7 minutes from my house) is there already and the JDM receivers looked so good I decided what the hell this way would be less hassle, right? Yeah right  <lmao> Gun show was in January. Finally got my lower over a week ago now but at that time upper did not come with it. They told FFL that upper would be another two weeks out. I called JDM today to order some picatiny rails and asked them if my upper will be this week and they said 2 more weeks  :o As someone said in a thread from this introductions forum recently, "JDM service sucks". Jeez.... okay fine I won't get my bolt and barrel for another 3/4 weeks anyway that is if JP means what they say  <dontknow>

Well I would have cancelled the whole JDM thing & got the MATEN set from Rainier Arms but I paid them all in cash at the show. It would have been easy to cancel if i used plastic so I'll just wait it out. I believe the product is good anyway it's just the service. They should tell the truth in the first place and I would be good. Sorry for the rant now on with the list.

JDM receivers, matched set? No, "Engraved" matched set LOL!!!! How can u have a matched set when they aren't even made together? yeah.... By the way the lower they sent is very nice so far so good....

Stuff I have now

JDM 14" tube I like it. & the lower receiver & I like it too it's perfect.

Magpul UBR, MIAD Grip & AFG all in FDE. I stippled the AFG already

Slash's CAR10-HX buffer with modified AR-10 spring.

Smith Enterprises Vortex flash hider

Phase 5 Tactical EBRv2/308  extended bolt release

POF ejector port door

RADDLOK magazine release button

JP-EZ fire control system with safety selector. Installed in lower now, very nice trigger and safety selector too.

JP Low Mass Carrier .308

JP bolt carrier completion kit

JP low profile adjustable gas block

JP mid length gas tube

Fulton Armory selected lower parts and upper port door pin, C clip & spring too

I think that's it but it seems like i forgot something

Edit: yeah I forgot I have the BCM Gunfighter Mod 3 Charge Handle

What is ordered but I'm waiting.

JDM upper  <dontknow>

JP enhanced bolt .308

JP Supermatch barrel 16" stainless .308, add 50 bucks for their black teflon coating hope that looks good. Didn't want the standard polished stainless finish look.

Yeah spent a lot with JP, like I gots me a JP rifle

Welcome from Indiana brother NoFail,is the bullet button .308? How many grain? <lmao>...Cali loco.. :cookoo:

Yeah yeah yeah, what can i say, unforgiven, but can you forgive me? The thing about Kalifornistan is the weather. It just can't be beat as far as I know. I've been to many places around the world, including China and many Asian locations. China weather was actually okay when I was there. But up here in S.F. Bay Area the air is so clean. In china location I was in the air was horrible, so much pollution, not the weathers fault. Japan was okay. But I wonder if the weather has something to do with why there be so many darned Commies here? You know, socialists, they are all just commies to me, same thing really. I mean they were all over the place in China......  <dontknow>

Thanks guys!!

Brother Unforgiven, keep up the good hard work bro, it's hard to come by. As a matter of fact I have maybe 1.5 months left at the job I'm doing now. But a bud just emailed me today & wanted resume to submit for a Tech job at a local big company here. Hey thank God every day and give him your gratitude, he'll like that. But yeah, I'm glad I can make you laugh, mission accomplished bro  <thumbsup>

This!!!! Yes, actually brother mariodesmo speaks truth. In fact to back that up just this Monday, Presidents Day, I went to a gun store, Valkrie Arms in Milpitas, and it was packed I mean seriously crowded. They have a indoor pistol range there and it was full capacity with I don't know how many people waiting. They do human silhouettes too and there were a number of chicks in there putting lots of holes in the middles of them. It was very diverse crowd too.

Hey, Nofail

You are all over the place on this site. Are range here in SoCal is pretty diverse and full also. I have a problem when a group comes in and its all fun and games. Usually they are using their phone video and acting silly. Another group of people come in and throw their stuff on yours. This is a small percentage of the people. Most of the people there are friendly and helpful. It only takes a few when they are handling weapons.

If I see them in the lobby I usually talk to them. Nicely. They sometime dont know any better. I dont want to engage them in the range. If I think they are being unsafe I leave.
