  1. I've been there, but this shows up at the right side of the screen. You cannot join this group
  2. Your wife will be in our thoughts. Hoping for a swift recovery.
  3. By the way, :biglol:
  4. Sorry that I have to do this, but just and jest are two separate words, with two separate meanings. I think you meant to use just.
  5. What? For the smoking deal they are giving us on a limited/special edition TGO upper and lower?  :stunned:
  6. I've always been told that forged it actually stronger. 
  7. THE FURNITURE IS EITHER CRACKED BUT USEABLE OR THE FURNITURE IS BROKEN AND WILL NEED TO BE REPAIRED/REPLACED.   I don't know anything about those kind of parts, but $350 for broken parts sounds steep.
  8. Question! When putting together the AR upper, is it necessary to check the headspace? If so, how is this done?
  9. There they are. I knew I left my guns somewhere, but I couldn't remember where. I'll swing by in a few to pick them up.  :cool:
  10. Looks like the would be pointed  down and slightly away from the body, once the "pouch" is closed.
  11. Billet just looks better.
  12. [quote name="whitewolf001" post="1044024" timestamp="1380974706"] What should I keep an eye on?[/quote] The finish, while it looks pretty and smooth, was garbage on both of them. It didn't take much to knick and scratch through the finish, leaving the bright silver/gray material exposed. On one of them, once you got it put together, it was nearly impossible to get both the takedown and pivot pins in at the same time. After forcing them in, a hammer was needed to push the takedown pin back out. On the second one, the hole for the takedown pin detent and spring was drilled/molded/whatever process they use wrong, resulting in the takedown pin going in at an angle, not allowing it go all the way in. With a few passes of a drill bit slightly larger than the current detent/spring hole, it lined up fine. Both were purchased from Whittaker's at the same time. For the ridiculous price of $160-$180, I was expecting far better quality. Getting MAG Tactical to take care of the issue was such a nightmare, so giving up and never buying another one was a far easier solution. Yours was free, so I wouldn't sweat it too much. Don't be surprised if the fit and finish don't withstand any amount of abuse. They may be lighter, but the fact that they require large pins (that you can only get from MAG, as far as I know) should be a bit telling on the real strength, or lack thereof.
  13. I must have misunderstood the video. I thought they said his target was not in the store at the time, but I read the article, and it does appear the target was in fact int he store at the time.
  14. Based on my experience with 2 MAG Tactical lowers, you very well may be thankful it was free. In my humble opinion, they are garbage. 
  15. If you'd rather trade, I can always use .40 or .223/5.56. I don't shoot .45, so those wouldn't be much use to me. Either way, they're yours if you want them.
  16. If the wife and kids want to go shooting, I will sell you a brick (325) of Federal AutoMatch for what I have in it. $20. I am also in Springfield, so I'm close.
  17. The Affordable Care Act itself states that the IRS cannot file a lien on a property because an uninsured person fails to pay a penalty. Nor can it seize bank accounts or garnish paychecks to recover Obamacare fines. Nor will Americans who refuse to pay for mandatory health insurance be subject to criminal prosecution of any kind.
  18. It was closed, but employees were still inside. He was looking for a specific employee who was not there at the time.
  19. I thought GT quit selling Smith & Wesson firearms a long time ago.
  20. Man, I never knew email could be so complicated. Never had any issues with GMail.
  21. I know almost nothing about photography, but I will be getting into it around the first of the year. I have a feeling Santa will be bringing me a Nikon D3200.
