MikedaddyH Posted October 23, 2012 Report Posted October 23, 2012 Edge, Do you have video of Tom & Rob shooting the slidefire ar ?They both manhandled Vera like she was a little B!tch.
edgecrusher Posted October 23, 2012 Report Posted October 23, 2012 I got both of them, and Jon. I'll post it next week when I get home <thumbsup>
98Z5V Posted October 23, 2012 Author Report Posted October 23, 2012 I had such a poop-eating grin on my face... ;D <lmao>That thing was a riot!
98Z5V Posted October 24, 2012 Author Report Posted October 24, 2012 Since shooting Greg's 7.62 OBR yesterday, I've been on LaRue's website most of the evening. I've really been looking at the PredatOBR, of the pinned 14.5" variety. Like a 7.62 version of the Costa gun. <thumbsup> <laughs>I'd be $200 closer to that right now, if Drew didn't have a 300BLK barrel showing up for me in two days... :o
planeflyer21 Posted October 24, 2012 Report Posted October 24, 2012 Yeah...I've been shopping too.What is the make of that pencil-barrel you had? Those lowers are shipping in December! Would be nice to have all the parts here ready to go.Jon
98Z5V Posted October 24, 2012 Author Report Posted October 24, 2012 Yeah...I've been shopping too.What is the make of that pencil-barrel you had? Bravo Company (BCM). It was a full lightweight upper. You can built the upper, just using that pinned 14.5" barrel, or just get the whole thing. When I was building for the kid's birthday last year, separate parts were OOS, so I just got the whole thing.Here's the complete upper - does not come with BCG. Add the $45 option for the pinned/welded A2 Extended flash hider, to make it "all-around" legal.http://www.bravocompanyusa.com/BCM-Standard-14-5-LIGHT-WEIGHT-Upper-Receiver-p/bcm-urg-car-14lw.htmHere's just the barrel:http://www.bravocompanyusa.com/BCM-14-5-LIGHT-WEIGHT-Barrel-Stripped-p/bcm-brl-car%2014lw%20%20std.htm
planeflyer21 Posted October 24, 2012 Report Posted October 24, 2012 Thanks Tom! That pencil upper is 10-19!Jon

edgecrusher Posted October 24, 2012 Report Posted October 24, 2012 That's awesome that y'all got together!I concur!And now after a morning of motorcycle riding, Tom and I are off to the range....... teaser pic!
planeflyer21 Posted October 24, 2012 Report Posted October 24, 2012 You guys are gonna have FUN!!Just make sure Tom doesn't say "Hey ya'll! Watch this!" <laughs>Jon
98Z5V Posted October 25, 2012 Author Report Posted October 25, 2012 Tannerite is... AWESOME!!! :2nd:Guess-timated 100 yards out, placed the target, and brought out the Mod 0 with some 69gr match ammo. Greg says, "I don't know if "your zero" will be "my zero" on this rifle. I said "Hey, brother, it's zero'd for 100 yards, that's about 100 yards out there - hit it." He got down, sighted, pulled the trigger - AND THAT poop WENT UP!!! <laughs> <lmao>He's got video on his phone of the silliness, but those vids won't get posted until he gets back to MA and get's everything converted and hosted. The last shot was a double-dose, too... ;D <thumbsup>
planeflyer21 Posted October 25, 2012 Report Posted October 25, 2012 Yup!Last machinegun shoot the melons were kinda boring...until we stuffed them with tannerite!blub-blub-blub-blub-blub-blub-blub-ka-BOOOOOOOM-blub-blub "Did I hit it?" <laughs>Jon
MikedaddyH Posted October 26, 2012 Report Posted October 26, 2012 The most interesting part of the shoot was when Rob gave Sig P220 pistol operational demonstration to the military boys. Everyone was watching and paying complete attention the whole time, group of maybe 20+ free lessons. One of the guys said while looking at Tom's table, "They got better stuff then we do !"
392heminut Posted October 26, 2012 Report Posted October 26, 2012 Man, you guys are making me feel soooo bad that I couldn't make it! If it hadn't been between going or having the cash to go see my kid graduate bootcamp I would have been there for sure! :-[
planeflyer21 Posted October 26, 2012 Report Posted October 26, 2012 There's enough of us in reasonable distance we can do it fairly regularly. Mikedaddy wants to meet in Marana, as it is more fair to him and Tom.Very convenient for blue109 and myself. <laughs>Jon

Robocop1051 Posted October 27, 2012 Report Posted October 27, 2012 The most interesting part of the shoot was when Rob gave Sig P220 pistol operational demonstration to the military boys.The poor kid was having issues qualifying. He was trigger slapping the pistol and no one diagnosed it. I pointed out the issue and showed him how to practice his trigger control. I never did find out how he did.
392heminut Posted October 27, 2012 Report Posted October 27, 2012 Marana works for me too, my daughter lives in Casa Grande!

Tucson is about 100 miles south of Phoenix. Marana is on the north end of Tucson.
MikedaddyH Posted October 27, 2012 Report Posted October 27, 2012 Someone asked me about the manufacture of the barrel on my 6.8 rifle. Its a McGowen.
