Between OD and FDE Magpul

Hmmm the OD seems to match pretty well with Magpul FDE.

That is fairly accurate. The Glock OD doesn't really match anything, but it is definitely closer to the Magpul FDE than the Magpul OD. And I think everybody pretty much agrees that the Magpul colors set the standard.

Had a momentary lapse of reasoning, almost went to chipolte.

They are still there. Can't pass up this deal on GOAT reflex sight (Poverty Aimpoint ****s be gone). With the two M92 pistols, plus the laptop this week, I need to give the credit card a breather

I saw a TA31 for 500 bucks yesterday....

lol, 20 minutes after ordering an XPS 2-0

[combatdepth]

Where?

EE. Only problem was that it had some scratches a cracked FO tube.. But that's not a big deal. It still works fine. I think it's 175 at trijicon to have the tube replaced, tritium replaced and the whole thing refinished.

Local Mexican food is good. All the illegal migrant farm workers opened an awesome restaurant. Have to point to what you want on the menu most of the time but damn that food is good.

Did you read the comments?

I have a hard time getting behind not giving someone my business on the basis that they're against having people conduct rallies or demonstrations in their stores.

[combatdepth]

Royalty money?

I like to call it that. Buying it with my food stamps.

[Mauser88]

He's still trying to low ball me.....another dude is offering $700 cash. I'm hesitant, it is a pita to clean and ammo ain't cheap and let's face it, it's a mid tier 1911.

You're dead to me.

lol haha @ Glocks, geez, saying you want a Glock is like taking it up the ass. Only RThoe can manage that with a modicum of grace.

Qdoba master race

Never heard of Qdoba. I have Moes by me but Im in Exton PA right now. (Anyone from lower PA or anyone near trolley square DE there is a place called El Diablo, a local burrito place. Holy chit their food is amazing.)

Ended up finding a small BBQ joint called "something grilled BBQ" hnggg their sweet tea was served in mason jars.

[DanFager]

Picked up a new lower yesterday. I got the Aero Ambi lower they offer that is already machined out to use a PDQ bolt catch from Teal Blue Bravo. I stumbled across it a few weeks ago and curiosity got the best of me.





First inspection of the PDQ was not good really. Edges were rough/sharp and it just has a cheap phosphate finish on it. For a $59 retail I expected it to be a little more refined (it's $39 when ordered with the lower from PA). Installed the PDQ first and it was not very smooth, seemed a bit clunky. Went ahead and finished the lower to try out the operation with a fully assembled gun. First impression was verified, thing would hang up and not move when attempting to manipulate it with the trigger finger. Worked fine and moved freely using it the conventional way. I was starting to think this was a waste. I removed the PDQ and was strongly suspecting the rough finish and edges as the culprit. I got out the dremel with a polishing wheel and worked over the front and rear faces and rounded off the edges. Re-installed it with a liberal amount of lube. Success! It now moves very freely.

Did a bunch of mag changes locking the bolt back and this thing is tits. Very, very intuitive position of the pad, and dropping a locked bolt requires much less pressure than I anticipated it would. Initial impressions aside, I give this a 10/10 for functionality. Will probably be buying another and will be cutting out one of my other lowers myself.
