How does it hold up Justin? Looks like a weird design for the clip.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

It's all kydex and it just clips over your pants and belt. You pick a clip size based on the width of your belt 1.5" or 1.75". It's all molded from once piece of kydex

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Nice. Sturdy then, huh?

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Since I'm new to the whole AR world, if I were to find a slightly used one that fits what I'm looking for, what questions should I ask the seller? I'm looking at a varmint style, so don't know if that makes any difference. Should also add, more than likely this would be done online, so I wouldn't be able to handle it before hand.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Yep and light.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

1. Chrome bore/chamber?
2. Semi-or M16 Bolt carrier group? (It will fire semi either way but the m16 bcg is heavier and typically runs better, not a deal breaker either way)
3. Round count?
4. What kind of trigger?

Why not get a regular style AR and just use it to varmint hunt?

Prepare to pay a pretty penny in this market regardless.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

good deal on a budget rifle case here if anyone needs one.

bear in mind that won't fit AR rifles too well.... at least not with any substantial optics mounted on them.....

I think this is what I'll buy with some of the tax return money

And this shotgun

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Well, that's where logic goes out the window. I kinda fell in love with the Varmint style look a few years back. Always thought it would be cool to get one. Fast forward to today's situation and now I have this desire to get one. Unfortunately I seem to have the worst sense of timing. I'm in no rush, the right deal would have to come along for me to pull the trigger (ha!).

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Might be better to wait it out then.
My lgs had complete stag lowers for 400

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Just got my shipping notice from Paul.
He is now running five weeks due to demand.
Getting ready to order my fourth from him.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

:tu ill wind up with a mag holder I'm sure

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

I have always ordered one with the holster since all orders have been a first for that particular gun.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Most important to me would be to ask if its was an actual rifle or it was put together from parts. Right now though if its a pieces and parts rifle vs. a good quality AR (LMT-Bravo Co, Colt, Knights armament, Daniel Defense, Spikes, Yankee Hill Machine, Saber Defense, forgetting a few) Prices are to the moon I would hold off for little unless you must have one now.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Yeah, my M&P 15. :D

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Yea, I"ve been looking for a RockRiver or CMMG setup.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Not bad from either company, but if I was purchasing any used upper, I'd be a little hesitant if I couldn't see it first. Reason is I'd like to be able to check the crown for any damage and wear to any other parts. Brand new I'd have no worries as I can deal with the company to fix any issues.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Interesting... had 100 rnds of 12ga target loads on order from sportsmans guide... last week the backorder got extended into june (ugh)... but it just shipped today! First time they've ever been early on something...

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Yeh I hear bad things about them

Re: First Firearm Thread.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

How were you holding it? Were you "tea cupping"?

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

You just cost me a few hundred bucks and a couple hours of my day. :D.

Thanks for the link!

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

:r:r:banger

What did u buy?:po

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

A couple hundred rounds of Federal 147 grain 9mm. I had to buy that many to make the shipping cost worth it. :D

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Where did you get it from

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

http://www.ammunitiondepot.com/9MM-S...ion-s/1884.htm

A hell of a deal at 35 per 50 count box if you ask me.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Ordered a Glock 20 SF today, plus some Double Tap ammo. I'm excited to get out to the range with it:noon

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Good choice, haha just picked up all the Ted Nugent ammo Cableas had on the shelf less then $20 per box! The double tap is decent what grain did you get?

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Ok it's official I hate Gander Mountain with a passion! I called up there today and asked if they had a specific shotgun in stock. They said yep sure do. Drove the 30 min drive there. Get there and they never had it in stock. ****ing cocksuckers! Waste of an hour and gas! Never going there again, I'll pay more to go elsewhere before I buy there again.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

That is BS. I wouldn't have left peacefully. I would have gave them some of my mind.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Yeh I wasn't happy but I just left and won't be back.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

180 grain and 135. I want to get some Underwood ammo, too bad they are out. Also looking to get some cheaper range ammo.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

took an AR upper out for a spin today. 20" barrel, looks like good quality barrel, used, don't know anything else about it. Shot a 1.25" MOA group at 100yds from a shaky table & bipod, at dusk.... got a feeling that group will get a hell of a lot smaller on a solid bench, I could see the crossshair in the scope bouncing up and down... Looking forward to a proper range day someday to really shake it out.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Looks like ill be driving 1.5 hrs to palatka to Walmart on Tuesday if they still have the shotgun I want...

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

still lookin at getting a $200 chinese 870 clone?

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

yep

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Nice! I love the Double Tap ammo in my G20 :tu

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

I need to get a light for it and some night sights Dan. Any thoughts on what to get? As far as a light, I'm looking at the Surefire X300 ultra, but I don't know if I can get a similar light for less money.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Well when the company ships it I'll be an owner of a Rock Island Armory compact tactical .45 :banger

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

If anyone comes across any places with Glock 20 full mags in stock, shoot me a message please. :tu

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

I use this Streamlight TLR 1s, led 160 lumen
It was like$85 from my local Cabela's

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

:banger:

Where from




Well I drove down to Palatka today and they only had one of the 12gauges I wanted but it was sold pending a NICS callback, lady called and they approved so no go :sad
Off to gainesville tomorrow to get one I guess...

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

sounds like after gas, it would have been cheaper to pay shipping and the FFL transfer fee to buy it online....

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

yep. its all good. i'm going to gainesville to get one from a small gun shop. it'd be cheaper to do it online but i'd rather support small business

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Can't argue with you there :tu

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

I figure if it's a WANT then I can afford to pay a little more to support a small business.
