I've given this debate some thought. Just food for thought as I'm going to swing back and forth on this. 1) Firearms are lethal. 2) Dogs (can be) lethal. You don't hear about Chihuahua's attacking people because they just aren't very lethal. Despite what the Chihuahua might think! Same holds for bla...

That second picture looks more like Israel than the USA. Check out the ice-cream cone just to the left of the girl in the red top -- really checking out that rifle!! :shock: I bet the guy behind the counter doesn't screw up their orders! :mrgreen: I originally found the picture here: http://present...

Did they stop to think about that "theory" at all? For a government to go to war, they need to ramp up arms production. Then ramp up recruitment of military personnel. Train them, and also provide barracks, bases, etc.. How long does that take? What if the threat was an immediate invasion?...

Oh man, that was hilarious! I spent a whole Saturday morning on youtube once watching porch pirating gone wrong..lol. One guy rigged an exploding box of doggie doo with a time delay. In the video, you see the car almost at the end of the street when the passenger jumps out. And starts puking his coo...

That's not bad! I think my next big purchase will be a scope. I'm really leaning towards the Primary Arms 1-6X24mm you recommended. All reviews have been favorable about it. Especially for the price. It's painful, as I was really wanting to save up for a Glock G43. But there comes a time when a guy ...

My prayers are with you. There have been two women where I work that have had cancer. One has recovered! It was a long and tough road. The other is still fighting, but is showing much improvement. People don't understand the strain fighting something like this is. We may think we could deal...for a ...

Thanks guys! I took the Sport out for a quick spin today. All I can say is, I'm happy with it! Content with what my $500 bought me. The build and quality feel nice. Not like a budget rifle at all. Everything feels tight except the buttstock. Which will get replaced anyways. I've had a few rifles, bu...

Thanks for all the helpful advice!
I've decided on a S&W M&P Sport II! Good and solid build. It doesn't fold up, but it's pretty short with collapsed stock. So far, I'm impressed and really happy with it.

Awesome! I can imagine how you must feel. I'll be 51 in February, and my eyes have gotten bad over the years. I've even considered eye surgery. Unfortunately, I have an astigmatism so I'm not sure if they could even correct for it. Old age sucks. Going from great eyesight to glasses, then bifocals. ...

Thanks for the advice! As much as it pains me to wait, I plan to clean it up tonight and get familiar with how it operates.
Is it okay to dry fire these things without snap-caps?

Or maybe flat dark earth? I haven't decided yet. But yes! It' bewitchingly black as it sits.
Two hours to go and run outta here like a...traumatized ape!

OK...... your FIRST purchase after you buy the gun: 1000 rounds of ammo , either 55 grain FMJ or 62 grain FMJ. Okay, so I am the proud owner of a S&W Sport II! Big and HUGE kudos to Nagel's guns here in San Antonio! They didn't shoot me..lol. Fast Eddie there hooked me up, and never once showed...

I'm going to just take the plunge...today! My wife will hate it. My neighbors will hate it! Living out in the country has it's benefits..lol. And hey, it's not like I don't hear gun shots going off all through the night. Do you think the firearms store guys are packing heat? :headscratch Let's just ...

Good luck and may the Force be with you. :lol: My wife will hate you guys. My neighbors will hate you. But I just called and they have several in stock! Plus ammo. :mrgreen: Thanks for turning this: http://m.memegen.com/bew9m6.jpg Into this: https://pics.me.me/the-force-is-strong-with-this-one-lol-...

Yeah, I think TAM is correct in that the seller doesn't know what he has. Any respectable AR custom build owner would probably ramble off all the specs and then some! So here's the plan. Get a stripped down $500 M&P Sport. Then accessorize, accessorize! Besides, I can buy the Sport listed below ...
