    PSA announced at Shot Show a Vietnam-era retro AR clone. It looks really nice, if you are into a reproduction ready to go out of the box.

    The 9MM ....

    Is that a CAR looking stock that is supposed to actually be a brace?

    It looks like it has a fun switch. Sub machine gun I think. The stock does look odd though.

    I bought mine retro, 2014. It looked like the one I shot in USAF basic circa 1981. Don’t know why but the 20 round mags are my favorite, looks wise..
    As an aside, the C-rats we ate in basic said 1967 on the cans….mmmmm

    This was before the tragic boat accident, of course

    Because that's how I wanted it. I don't think there's any rules on it is there? LOL
    No, no rules ... thought there might be a practical purpose ... always willing to learn new sling techniques.

    But if it's just because that's how you want it, so be it ... nothing new to learn here.

    Carry on.

    Actually the carbine is an old picture. I've rearranged the sling to be over the shoulder through the FSB... I had to take a look at it again I don't think I've updated that picture since I changed it out. It's all good you know what they said in Hamburger Hill- don't mean nothing not a thing
