Nice and simple. They started issuing those AFG here at MARSOC. I like them. We teach Students to angle their hand naturally anyway. Only thing I did was add some Skate Board tape for a better grip.

Thank you, I put 100 rounds down it yesterday, and it felt great. As for the AFG, I was sent one by mistake and hated it. I don't know why , but I could not get it to feel right. So I used it to put some rounds down range and something clicked. Since then I've not looked back.

I went with the RVG, and I want to put a flashlight on one of those drop adaptors so the switch should be right by my thumb, have you run a setup like this before? I am trying to stay away from pressure switches. No particularly good reason, I just don't want to use one.

Just picked up an LMT MRP Upper receiver, I am quite impressed with the quick ability to switch out barrels or at least having the ability to switch to gas piston platform if I needed to.

It really is a solid platform. I have the piston version, and decided to see how long I could go without cleaning it ... Got nervous after nearly 1200 rounds and gave it a good scouring last night. Didn't realize how dirty my Fiocchi ammo had been firing! Despite the filth coating the bolt assembly and extractor (and the rest of the BCG to a lesser extent), I never had a single malfunction of any kind, and am confident that it would have continued to blast for some time. Also never gets very hot.
I'd eventually like to get the 12" piston barrel, as it is my only other choice unless I purchase a standard BCG, but there are too many other toys I am coveting right now, so it and the requisite NFA stamp will have to wait.

We ran up to friends in East Palatka this last weekend and I finally had a chance to get to the local range.
Took two of my toys, a S&W CS9, 9mm and my new(to me) S&W Performance Center 945, 45 ACP. Because I wasn't sure of the range rules I only took CI Blazer ammo. I used NRA 50ft TQ-1/1 targets, 1.5 inch bull, at 25 ft distance. These are small-bore rifle targets but work nicely for indoor range pistol. No FTF or any other problems. Both pistols performed flawlessly..

Heres my work tools
BCM M4 carbine upper with DD 12FSP Rail and Glock 17 colored filled mags and slide. I just painted the AR with a can of Rusty paint and they look great. I employed the pine needle approach.

Sweet, sweet shooter. Might be the favorite of the collection right now.  |
How true, I love the basic stock gun, they are rare these days. You can still get away with a super light rifle, if you add a carbine troy trx extreme battlerail. I like the pic.

Stop dispensing gun advice.
You are 24 years old with zero military service.
Some of the people you are advising were shooting before you were born, and have multiple combat tours on a two-way range.
More listening, less talking.
Thank you.
