    Got a 25% off discount code for Franklin Armory binary trigger. Ordered one for my 10/22 on 27 june, but now I'm starting to wonder if they are going to honor it. Order is still awaiting fulfillment as of 8 July..

    Edit: Less than 10 minutes after I posted this, I received an email saying it was ready for shipment.

    Got an aero buffer kit with H buffer today. The build is starting to look like a gun finally. Still needs a stock (the cheese grater is just there as a placeholder), gas tube and block, bcg, charging handle and optic. Also want to switch out the safety for an Ambi. Trying to get er done by next month. We’ll see. Decent stuff ain’t cheap lol.

    What's a good deal on primers now. I see 69 per 1000 I think fir small pistol. When should you buy?

    $69 per 1k seems like a good deal at today's prices. Most places that I've seen still want from $100 - $140 per 1k depending on brand.
    Glad I stocked up years ago!

    I finally ordered a Tactical Solutions 5.5" threaded barrel for my Browning Buckmark pistol. It's the only semi-auto 22 pistol that I've never had a threaded barrel for my suppressor's to go on.

    I've seen small pistol primers as low as $58/1000.

    So far this weekend I haven't bought anything, shocking isn't it.

    I did pick up my new Dagger full sized frame yesterday, the slide was delivered yesterday, and the stock for my next AR10 build arrived yesterday.

    Friday I had a brick of molds arrive. Nine MP molds and a couple sets of handles. One .308 mold, and the rest are 9mm or .357 molds. One is a brutal looking 180 with a massive flat point.

    Not today, but I bought a Geissele maritime bolt catch from Midway back on 9 July. I have one on another AR, and like how it works.

    They shipped it via UPS the next day, Monday 10 July.

    It got to San Antonio on 13 July.

    It still hasn't been delivered.

    Now I know why UPS is known as "Big Brown" They're shit!

    Range USA has .40 hornady STX self defense ammo for $13.49/20rd & Sig Elite Performance 9mm JHP for $14.99/20rd so I picked up a box of each. Went to Academy right after that and wow, they really don’t want to sell ammo. They are the absolute highest priced on every ammo I looked at. Unless they start reigning in their prices, I’m not even going to bother stopping in there anymore.

    Well, my Geissele maritime bolt catch from Midway finally arrived today...nine days (or 216 hours) to get from Columbia, MO to San Antonio, TX, a distance of 865 miles which I could have driven round-trip in 27 hours (thanks UPS, you truly are
    1689722873371-png.396695
    !!).

    But it took me all of three minutes to install, an easy job requiring nothing more than a set of pin punches, a small hammer and a microfiber cloth to protect the finish of your lower. The plunger and spring didn't even pop out, and I used the same same pin.

    Damn, it's a helluva lot easier to lock the bolt back now! I already had one on my AR pistol (soon to be SBR)!
