The Official Status Update Thread: Part 98 - Saving Private Ryan

[GLOCKMAN23C]

I've been told I should build my first one, I currently have 0 parts but a big wish list!

That makes 2 of us.

You don't have to, but it would be a very nice learning experience. I want an FN 15 currently, but thats after I build a few more…

Yeah, I was young and dumb with disposable income when I bought my 1911...I'm pretty sure I overpaid for it but I had cash in hand and he had a gun that I wanted so I bought it. I want to know what I'm getting in to with an AR and building it would be a good starting point.

Howdy greg arron and jagee!

 

[jagee]

Yes, you should assemble your first one. They are too easy with the right tools.

...and I know a guy that with a little persuasion will show me how to do it...

 

[jagee]

That makes 2 of us.

I can't seem to get any donations for the 'jagee wants an AR' fund.

HHHhhhmmmmmmm....has "J" man been really really nice to "GM" lately.....HHhhmmmmmmmmm.....

Dude…assemble the lower and get a PSA upper. Thats what I did with my first build, and that 20" SS FN heavy barrel is SOOOOOOOOOO accurate. Don't think I will use a PSA LPK again though, trigger is not as good as a CMMG

GM!!!!!!!

I think I just sold my Varmint AR. Will know this weekend. Got the Varmint thing covered with 2 other guns and the funds will go nicely towards something else.

I understand some of those words.

GM!!!!!!!

Yeah....he is pretty funny at times.

I haven't called you that for at least a day or two...

 

[aaron580]

I understand some of those words.

PSA = Palmetto state armory
LPK = lower parts kit
SS = stainless steel
FN = FN herstal
CMMG = CMMG

 

[jagee]

I'm half tempted to sell the Buell to get gun/ammo money, and then I'll have some cash to put new bars on the bagger.

Half an hour and some well applied love will bring the trigger in nicely but yeah...CMMG is better parts.

Keep making donations to the glockman needs an ar fund, only to spend it on boolits or the like.

Eh, 2 maybe. We will talk about while I put your AR together....

 

[SEIndSAM]

Get the PSA Lower parts kit w/o trigger. Then get this trigger. ALG Defense QMS Quality Mil Spec Trigger Group 6 5lbs Tuned by Geissele ? New | eBay

 

[aaron580]

I keep skipping donations to the aaron AR fund because it keeps going into the aaron 1911/reloading fund...

Now that makes sense.

I have a feeling I'll have to wear my running shoes for the function check...you're quite fond of moving targets...
