I have a DPMS and am not highly impressed with it. But all in all it is a decent weapon.
And if my wife said go buy one I like you would have fun out the door before she changed her mind. Probably would have shut my phone off too :roflmao

Personally, I prefer a Rock River tactical operator II with lot's of options . But that's just my personal weapon of choice.

Took me a while. Had to get photos and speak to people etc. But forms for my FAC are now sent.....
Hopefully in a few weeks I will be in a position to start putting rifles in my cabinet 😂

Getting closer,,,,:shrug::D
Went and shot my new DPMS today, first 5 shots I could not hit a target at 20 yds! Finally realized when I bought sights I did not buy a front sight for a lowered gas block. So I was shooting right over my target. Now once I realized what was going on and after feeling stupid, I was able to aim about 8 inches lower than what I wanted to hit and all was good.
Pay attention to what you are buying was my lesson for the day.
I'm planning a fairly big ride on my Harley this summer and a member and friend is a police officer in one of the states that I'd be passing through. I thought that I'd ask him about my pistol being either concealed (with me having my WA State Concealed Permit on person) or packed in the 'luggage' but fairly accessible. I also asked his thoughts about the same situation in other states. I appreciate his thoughts on the matter as I find them very wise.
I won't share all of his thoughts however I loved it when he ended with this:
"Also I only think California allows you to carry a single shot Nerf gun as long as you are wearing safety glasses and a traffic vest".
Yup Gotta Love California! :banghead:
Started shooting my first light sport competition tonight. Wasn't the best I've shot. But wasn't expecting much with the club guns.

Guns are like razors - you only need one....more.
Great quip from your friend. I have a detective friend. After many years as a police officer and now detective on the force, he has a very dry sense of humor as well.
There's a great interactive website, I forget the name, but it shows not only carry laws in each state, but most importantly for travel, reciprocity (or lack thereof).....And, man is it convoluted out there. My 2 cents: find that website and use it to make your decisions. Your friend is an expert in his state but that wouldn't count for jack in a carry-hostile state. Have an awesome and safe trip!
I'm well aware of the lack of consistency between the states and gun laws. A person is pretty much damned if he does and damned if he doesn't in some states.
I just wish this Republic could have an across the board acceptance of each other's gun laws, just like we do for our driver's licenses. Hell it's like back in the beginning when each state had it's own money! :banghead:
Sorry that your ride is down, but as far as 'maybe next year' and 'Minnesota being between ND and TN'-------------------------:y:tu:rock:

That bike has been dead for about 15 years. Unfortunately riding has not been a priority but it would be fun to bring it back to life. Of course, it would be more fun to get something bigger with TC's help.
I've been riding motorcycles since I was 16 (1969) but had wanted a Harley since '67.
When I decided to retire I figured that at the age of 62 it was Now or Never!
Thanks to Tc's guidance I picked up my '97 Heritage with 17K original miles on it. He did tell me that he could have found something similar down in his area for a lot less but also was impressed with the bike and the approximately $3K in add on's.(I paid 8K cash for it from a private individual/seller).
Once Tc saw it in person he said that he'd never seen a nearly 20 year old bike in such nice shape. And I'm trying to keep it that way. Right now it's up on the jack and the front rim and old tire are in the local bike shop to have a new tire installed.
Even if you don't have a ride by the time I ride back to see Tc, hopefully we can get together. I'd really enjoy that! :y
gun Reciprocy laws are very confusing but they are trying to get it cleared up with the push for Constitutional carry laws that are gaining ground. even here in Tn its in the house now. I have always checked before I go on my rides, but have also found that if its an issue , in my backpack is still for the most part legal because of not having instant access, and
to be honest if you aint doing anything wrong they don't hassle you anyway, ive declared I had a gun in my tour pak while in New York when I was pulled over and the Patrol Officer just had me stand away form my bike while we went over the ticket(don't ask) but Roy your going to be going thru several gun states on your way here so your good to go. I haven't been to the big ride to DC in a couple of years with Rolling Thunder, but even there plenty of us are strapped in Washington DC, its all about you being discreet and not causing a bunch of trouble. now if I knew you were going to be packing I would have pushed you to get a vest with a built in holster! Tc
heres the list I think you will be riding thru , Idaho anyone 6 and older can carry LOL I,m kidding guys don't go all political on me, Montana, South Dakota, North Dakota, Minnesota( not sure about this one ill have to look it up), Wisconsin, Iowa, Missouri, maybe Nebraska if you should decide to at one point, Arkansas, Tennessee, North Carolina,(ive never had a problem there), on your way back , Oklahoma, Texas, Colorado, Utah, New Mexico, Arizona, for the most part all these states are gun friendly. its all on the website Tc
Below is 1 website and 1 app for smartphones I recommend in every CCL class I teach. While there are several others out there, these seem to put updates on quicker.
Website: https://www.usacarry.com/concealed_carry_permit_reciprocity_maps.html
Just put in what state or states CCL permits you have and it does the rest.
App for smartphones: "Legal Heat"
Select state and it has the statue, along with reciprocity maps. (Open and concealed laws are there. And it updates auto when a state is selected).
IF you swing thru the Communist Republic of Chitago (aka Illinois). Specifically south/central Illinois, give me a shout and we can get together. You have my phone number, if I remember right.
Anyone lay hands on the new Sig P220 Legion? It's a great union of my favorite round and a great mfg...love my P229 legion.
careful with the gun control stuff guys. :)
Picked up my Browning T-Bolt .22 16.5 barrel with laminated stock in stainless steel I also put on a Wildcat Panther moderator + 500 rounds of hollow point ammo, today I've just finished setting up the sights picatinny rail and scope mounts everything looking good, hopefully I can zero her in tomorrow if the weather stays kind to me.

The day the Army announced they were going to the P320, I ordered 17 for my shop. Every one of them sold inside 9 days. Now they are like hens teeth. I can get 40cal all day long, but 9's are non-existent...at least until SIG catches up the the 250K initial order from the gov't. SIG has a few new models, in the 320 line, coming out soon. Reflex models and sub-compacts with night sights. Those will be interesting.
My youngest son bought one. They are nice little shooters. They went (kinda) off the same design as HK, with the serialized trigger assembly, making it a very modular pistol.
Yes the Wildcat are a UK company they make some outstanding moderators, they all need to be proofed in the UK before they can be fitted to your rifle that's what those little marks are proof stamps, and as you rightly say great when using subsonic ammo so quite you think you are shooting a air rifle.
