Does Chicago have/issue CCW? I thought it was just as bad as San Francisco.

Couple of new (to me) toys, finally have a Ruger MKIII and a G43.

I think any law requiring just cause to exercise a right enshrined in Constitution overtly oppressive.

Do you need to prove a need to exercise any other Constitutionally protected right?

The D.C. "may issue" law requiring just cause was ruled unconstitutional.

To hear the Mayor of Chicago tell it there are no firearm issues in Chicago. Its all indiana's fault.

Michigan has open carry written into the state constitution. We've been more free than Texas concerning carrying of firearms since 2001. However, in Texas you can use lethal force to defend property. That's not the case in Michigan unless you're occupying that property (house/car).

I'd go tan, if you don't have tan. But I'd think tan would get dirty.

I vote for the magpul set up. While the tac looks cool its definitely not friendly to the hands when out shooting. I am about to build my next AR and cant wait to finish it. Once I am done I just need to find a nice trijicon to go on top!

While I like the look of the tactical, the little I've used an AR with guard like that, the sharp corners can be a pain. My vote would be for the black Magpul.

My othe gun is railed, nice for putting furniture on but I do use a vertical foregrip. I actually like the set up of the magpul ones.

I don't think I mentioned I picked up a stainless Springfield 1911 .45 DU special edition, a Rugar American .308 rifle and a TriStar over/under 12 gauge.

With that said, I put the Vltor guard on my AR. Thinking I might sell though, it's quite heavy. When I was hog hunting a couple months ago, one of their guns had a stock guard and it was much lighter.
