You people really need to stop doing this to me. Very nice, BTW.

Without a doubt! It was so much fun, it was almost embarrassing.

Amazing! Simply amazing! The whole experience made me feel like a giddy little kid on Christmas morning. It was so awesome.

I have to give a very special thanks to Righwinger. There is no way I could possibly thank him enough for the wonderful training and shooting I was able to do today. Because of his generosity and kindness, I was able to have my first experience shooting an AR15. Not only that, but an added bonus of the ultra-amazing .458 SOCOM. That beast is definitely bad to the bone, and a definite must have in the future. Not likely to be the near future, but one of these days. It was obvious that my marksmanship is nowhere near what I'd like it to be, but I'm hopeful that will improve once I get a chance to really put some rounds through my future AR. Rightwinger let me know that I had a habit a flinching while I pulled the trigger. Undoubtedly, that played a large part in my lack of accuracy. It's hard to see/feel that type of stuff yourself while your mind is on a dozen other aspects of shooting. I'm also hopeful that will improve as well. Just by reading his posts, I could tell he has a great wealth of knowledge when it comes to these rifles. After talking with him in person, it really shined through. He was beyond patient with all my question, and didn't try to rush while explaining the inner-working of the rifle. I still have a lot to learn, but much of that will likely come from hands on experience. Bottom line is, TGO and it's members are extremely lucky to have a guy like Rightwinger around here. I'm greatful to have had the opportunity to soak up some of his vast AR knowledge. Thanks for everything, Rightwinger.

Hope Allan and Dakota have a safe and enjoyable vacation. Now it's time for you to simply enjoy it. Even if you do nothing except be a lazy couch patato, it will be worthwhile.

Why do I see people talking about cutting off the flash hider? For some reason I thought they were screwed on or held in place by a set type screw.

If I understand it correctly, flash hiders on Post-Ban rifles are permanent?

Very nice! I was fitting in just fine, until the "You Guys" comment. I've been in the south for 13-14 years, but still say "You Guys".

Open carry is not my thing, so I'll have to pass on this deal. Although, I do support their cause, just not enough to OC.

Welcome to TGO, John! Best of luck with you Grand Opening!

Welcome to the forum. We're glad to have you. Enjoy!

Too late! It's pouring here. Thunder is shaking the windows. I sure hope it's cleared up by this evening. We have plans to visit the downtown area for the festivities. HAPPY 4TH OF JULY !!!

It looks like I may have to make a trip down to Joe's. I'm not sure there's gonna be an easier way. Anyone planning a trip down that way anytime soon? I'll be more than happy to split the gas with ya.

Thanks for the information and help, guys. I've signed up on that site. There is tons of helpful info.

Sweet! Another happy ending.

A few burnouts will take care of the weeds.

I've noticed some people are saying the uppers and lowers are stamped "T" and "F". What does that mean?

I looked at those, but I'm kinda set on a smooth hand guard. The Ace stock is also a must. If things get too dificult, I may go with something like that.

Same here. I think 5.56 is the way I'd like to go.

We are blessed in the USA Ooops! Wrong thread. HAPPY 4TH OF JULY !!!

Got the munchies?

WOW! You make it sound so simple. That's what I'm worried about when ordering via the net. I don;t want to order the wrong thing, or realize it doesn't come with all the parts I was "thinking" it was supposed to come with.

A good friend of mine just purchased the Boulevard M109R2. A bit steep at nearly $13,000, but that thing is bad to the bone. Enjoy and ride safe!

What about triggers? any real benefit to a 2 stage?
