shibiwan Posted February 21, 2014 Report Share Posted February 21, 2014 Got my barrel in the mail today - the parts collection is now complete. Time for phase 2.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
98Z5V Posted February 21, 2014 Report Share Posted February 21, 2014 Nice looking barrel, brother! I'm racking up another parts-bin as we speak, but I'm still waiting on the receivers and rail. Rail should be here tomorrow. Aero Precision just got the receivers back from annodize today, so it'll be late next week before I get those in my hands. Then I need to paint. Gonna be two weeks before I can shoot this thing. :-[ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

planeflyer21 Posted February 22, 2014 Report Share Posted February 22, 2014 Nope, combat and firearms training simulator. Pepper spray, tazer, extendable baton, pistol, rifle, shotgun, all untethered (unlike FATS). Everything from computerized targets and shoothouses to "live" domestic violence, car jackings, and bombers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, starting too at least. Never reloaded, but now that I have Vera, I'm learning. Have a buddy who is a benchrest shooter teaching me part by part. Of course he's giving me crap for those 'inaccurate' semi's I like to play with. He's a 'not happy unless he gets 5 shots thru the same hole' kinda guy. But I've amassed 10# of H110, more than enough primers, some serious lead, and will have some made up this week when we complete the lessons. I just can't find any A1680 for the subs tho. But since my can is months away (positive thinking...) I have time to collect it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shibiwan Posted February 23, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 23, 2014 (edited) Jim, If there's a sportsman's warehouse close to you (I think they have 3 or 4 in AK), they seem to have AA1680 in stock when I last checked a couple days ago. Buy some online and have it ship to store. Screw those horrible shipping charges. :D Edited February 23, 2014 by shibiwan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
