Magazines is next on the list after ammo. I am learning that after market parts for the EBR are very enticing. I can see this thing costing me several hundred more in add ons.

 

[Birds Away]

That's BS right there.....They are expecting something from Grandpa.....

They get so much they won't know the difference. At that age they don't remember who it's from anyway.

Did the EBR come with a scope??

Yes, it has a Vortex strikefire.

Yeah, they are pretty young......Probably right...

It needs flip up sights, a light and some kind of sling.

There's a couple hundred bucks there....

 

[SEIndSAM]

I just use USGI slings on mine, they are only like $15 each...

 

[Birds Away]

It should be a fun journey. My little family will probably have to shrink some more.

The Wizard was recommending a single point sling. I know next to nothing about all this stuff.

Different strokes.......I tried a single point sling and didn't like them.

CM said he had some different ones I could try before I buy. That should save me some money.

 

[Birds Away]

Off to the shower, bbl.

That's your best bet......

 

[MrsGungho]

My daughter doesn't want me to buy for the grandsons. She says they get way too much already.

and I was told the same thing by my son in law... told him to go pound sand. This has been a couple years ago, but you don't tell a Grandparent to NOT buy for the kids.

They get so much they won't know the difference. At that age they don't remember who it's from anyway.

Is that you or her talking? Kynli can tell me what I have gotten her and what her Rara has gotten her and her Mama has gotten her, etc.

and I know he's in the shower but I had to get that in there

 

[MrsGungho]

morning sam, sorry you had a bad night.

Heck, I think I have a single point sling in my gun parts drawer......I'll see if I can find it later. Can't get into it now without making noise and waking folks up.

 

[SEIndSAM]

Morning MrsG!!

 

[SEIndSAM]

morning sam, sorry you had a bad night.

Eeeeeehh, no biggie. They are pretty rare anymore, I'm not gonna complain.
