Sorry man missed this. I did basically everything Volquartsen. I felt like the tandemkross stuff is kinda a little more Chinese looking. All the research I did said the VQ trigger kit was slightly better. So I did the Volquartsen accurizing kit but kept the standard trigger for now because I want to keep the gold to match gold upper. I may buy the trigger separate used off Reddit GAFS because I’m not spending $60 for a trigger lol. I could prolly get a hole drilled/tapped from a buddy for travel. and save a little coin. I did opt for the Tamdemkross Hive grip and mag bottoms however. But VQ for the comp bolt, trigger, mag release, bolt release, mag springs, mag buttons. Just bought a pre owned 507c waiting for the mount plates to come back in stock.

Nice. I heard the real ticket is the VQ kit and the TK trigger. The flat trigger is nice and I am happy with the kit.

Yeah people often do the mix of the two to get the flat trigger. You would think more would make triggers for them as popular as they are. Give me a flat gold and I’m sold. But not for $60 lol

I ordered some Underwood .380 ACP ammo from AE Ammo. They are definitely my favorite online retailer for Underwood ammo.

Delivered yesterday: Galloway reduced power hammer spring and trigger return spring for my Taurus 856. Hopefully, I'll get them installed Wednesday.

Bought some Lancer and Gen 3 PMAGS, oh and a Troy to test out since the gen 2 PMAGS don’t work.

Give us a range report on the GX4 carry.

Is that the NATO load? Like the Winchester 124 grain NATO in the white box.

No, standard velocity, muzzle velocity of 1125 feet per second.

Winchester White box NATO load is frequently listed at 1200FPS. Not a huge difference typically the NATO loads are listed with a higher muzzle velocity. Could just be marketing. I don't have a chrono to test.

Received a box today containing a couple of 4 pocket AR mag pouched, a couple of horizontal pistol mag pouches, and a Leupold AR scope mount.

I rolled over to Albany around lunch today to pickup a order of ammo cans from Guns and Rosa's home. You know them from the show circuit selling targets and ammo cans around Indiana and Ohio.
Great folks and my order was stacked up on a 4 wheel dolly when I pulled around back.
All the cans are in great shape as usual.

What do they charge for an order like that per can?

What do they charge for an order like that per can?

I dont recall asking the per can thing with all the different sizes being different prices. I want to say 20 to 40 bucks a can. and thats from regular 50BMG to the large cans that hold 1,500 rds of belted 7.62. Those cans are the same height and length of the 30MM cans but are about a 1 1/2' narrower.
That load was around $400.00 bucks.
And they always have super clean cans. lol
