Oh I like that take-down model! Trad gear is where my 'extra' money is going now but I will get one of these sooner or later. Especially like the soft case as a rest.
The Ruger 25 round mag is surprise, a good one too. I've got a Butler Creek Steel Lips and a less expensive (Eagle I think) mag too. One of these will get shipped to me more sooner than later.
I'll post up my stock 10-22 that is a 200th year of American Liberty addition. That is stored at my Dad's for safe keeping. My Mk 2 pistol is not here with me either as I live in a handgun control state for now.
Glad you like my 'green' 10-22. thanks

I dunno, it got you to respond.
I still say that you coming back to the site is the reason that Piny's and my man love was destroyed.

I've been seeing Smith & Wesson M&P AR-15's on sale NITB for as little as $700. You should check into that.

Ah, Ebay.
Thanks but no thanks. I can get the same firearm here in town for $35 more. I'm sure the Ebay firearm is top notch but I'd rather support my local gun shop.
Again thanks for the heads up though!

You can't buy firearms on ebay. NITB, just means NITB wherever.

Ah, see I thought is was an online site so I Googled it and NITB is an acronym used on Ebay, almost exclusively it seems.
If I ever do get an AR platform it will be a DPMS as they're made in St. Paul MN, cost right around $800, and have had great product reviews for the past five years or so.
First I'm going to replace the extractor on my 10/22 (wore the old one out) and pick up a 870 shotgun.

This is an excellent example of how the vast majority of concealed carry permit owners defuse potentially lethal encounters on a daily basis. These are the kind stories you won't hear about in the media...

Or you could just not drive like an asshole and not "indicated that I was there" when you can't merge. Say instead you merge in plenty of distance before and if someone is in your way you back up and let them go first. Much easier, safer, and better for society.

I agree, that part is probably the most questionable but unless you were there to witness it yourself, or have ever experienced the traffic around Orlando, I'm gonna give him the benefit of the doubt.
However, even if he did pull a douche move, don't you think the truck driver's reaction was a bit over-the-top-scary?
Personally, I try to cede the right of way in a merge situation, but I've been in fast changing traffic situations where I've had to deal with the impolite person in the lane you need to merge into. But I've never had to deal with the situ in the vid and I hope I never have to. The point being was that the very potentially violent situation was diffused by merely producing the weapon in a very confident, responsible manner. Most encounters with bad guys and firearms end this way. Those are the profound majority of the cases.
On another note, I found this excellent reference on the Well Armed Woman site. It's perfect for the ladies here interested (especially chad): Racking The Slide

Oh pinky, your trolling skills are sub par.
I suggest you go back to making idiotic statements about shot placement, illegally carrying concealed firearms, and the traffic around Orlando.

I call BS on this guys story. Just listening to the words he uses to describe the situation is painful.
"My vehicle would have been incapacitated," yikes, I forgot people actually spoke like that.

Stopped by sporting goods, saw this and thought of you...

Well then be a good Christian and buy if or me will ya?
Edit:
Also will you pick me up the flip up front and rear ghost ring sights too? I mean that model of DPMS has no sights so I kind of need 'em. They're only around $180 for a decent set.

That's not exactly what a "good christian" does....now, come to me as a neighbor in a troubled time and we can talk about responsibly arming you in a time of crisis and let you borrow something.
