I saw that sale today, seems like a good one.

I'm a little skittish posting actual proof of ownership (pics, lol) as I've built assembled a few recently and picked up another newer pieces to compliment my dated collection:

Steyr M40A1
870 tactical
16" .223/5.56 AR frankenstein'd, mostly basic mil-spec components in a DTI lower, YHM upper, magpul parts here and there

Recently:
Glock 20 gen5 MOS (no optic or changes yet besides an aftermarket slide release with raised bumps)
Glock 43x

My new favorite: 7.5" 300BLK
- Aero M4E1 lower w/ CMC drop-in trigger, armaspec ambi-selector, extended mag catch, odin works CQ-S, ergo grip and KNS anti-rotate trigger pins, all little OG green accents
- Aero 7.5" 300blk threaded enhanced upper, radian charge handle and toolcraft ion bond dlc bcg
- basic magpul mbus 3 back-up sights, paired with a sig juliet 3x magnifier and msr red dot
- may grab a faxon barrel for it, diff muzzle device and maybe a flashlight based on what i've seen in here.

I have another couple little builds, but they're more basic in being my first fore into the 300blk realm. PSA upper on one, mishmash of parts, aero precision upper on the other.

I think next thing is to build a 6.5 Grendel upper for another M4E1 lower I have, and maybe pick up some Faxon barrels for the little guys. The PSA upper is DENSE, and i'd also like the practice of setting up a whole upper receiver.

I think there are far too many gun owners for even the ATF to keep track of who has what. I know I'm on their radar as an NFA owner but what the heck. I'm too old and crippled to be part of any revolution anyway.

Said: Craig Robertson
Did the FBI do the right thing? Analyzing the raid that killed a man who threatened President Biden
“The guy was 300 pounds, ‘walked’ with a cane and was 75 years old. They didn’t put any of those details out there. I’m sure he wasn’t a huge physical threat. IMO it’s the FBI sending a message,” according to one post.

The guy is guilty of being a paper tiger and not too bright but really how dangerous is a 75 years old 300lbs. guy with a cane?
Now I'm on the FBI list again.

Pretty easy with today's computer storage abilities.

Yeah that way but I meant they aren't monitoring who posts a picture of their new Sig or Glock.

I mean I hope they have better things to do such as maybe try and track down the ring leaders of flash mob lootings of Nordstroms and the like.

Yeah I'm wrong. That isn't important.

Can you imagine all the police reports that would be files for lost/stolen guns when they announced a registration type event??? LOL

One of these days, I'm going to invent a gun life preserver to prevent these tragic firearm losses.....

There are DOJ drones that monitor firearm related sites & posts.

Avoid the BCA Grendel BCG, I had problems with it, think I have an Aero in there right now. I'm also going to avoid PSA BCGs as I think its the problem on my Creedmoor. The Odin Grendel barrel is nice.

Once you start building collecting AR calibers then it's hard to stop. I have at least one 556, 300 Blk, 6.5 Grendel, 224 Valkyrie, 458 Socom, 308, 6.5 Creed. Resisting doing a 762x39 & 22 WM.

Love my Aero EPC 9.

Ahh nice! Yeah i'll avoid the BCA in that case - thanks for the recommend. I'm building an AR10 for my best friend right now (on his dime, so it's fun) and I went with a Toolcraft. I like the Toolcraft I have in my 300blk, so I figured i'd give them another shot.

You've got quite the collection indeed lol. I deeply considered doing a 458, but I felt like the 6.5 Grendel just made more sense for me. Just got my extra upper in today and I'm waiting for my barrel right now - picked one up from Faxon.

I'm going to start having a hard time explaining to my wife why we need ANOTHER long gun at some point lol. Wife was super into when I built a cool little purple-accented 300blk SBR for 'em, but not as much now haha.

[jamesinaz]

I'd say some of you are paranoid. But it isn't paranoia if they really are trying to get you. LOL

What happens when you give accountants guns? What could possibly go wrong?

Does anyone have a good IWB Glock 43 holster suggestion?

I feel like I am printing all day with a TREX.
