I was at quickshot today and they do have the shield in the case now. Im not sure what caliber it is though. Maybe Ken will be along to fill us in soon.

Dont know about legalaties down here but I know of some people back home in Michigan that do just this. They go the gun buy backs and offer cash to people. I think one big thing is you cant be on private property doing the sales unless you have permission. Gotta stay on the sidewalks and...
Brother in law texted me today and psa has stripped lowers in stock. The Farrow Rd store had them. So I drove up and grabbed 2 for myself for only $119.99 each. Not sure how many they had left but if you call and they have any left they will hold it for you.
Yes the hourly rate is a little high at quickshot, but if you go with a member its free(hint hint). Finding a member to go with isnt to hard around here (wink wink).
Another board I visit, a gentleman posted that his daughter works at Richards Sporting Goods(d icks) and that corporate called and as of midnight Richards no long sells AR style rifles. Now how true this is we will have to wait and see. Hopefully they have a clear out sale.

Just a thought, If you wait till thanksgiving they did a really good deal last year. I got a 16" complete flat top upper 1 to 7 twist, a stripped lower and a complete lower kit for $550. Bought a rear mbus and a red dot for $180. Total $730.
So I am going to my nephews graduation tomorrow at Parris Island. I know you cant take a firearm onto the base as a civilian. Does the base offer anywhere to store it? Can you leave it in the car and just risk it? Whats the best course to take here? Really dont want to drive down there...
If you have a smooth bore barrel(no riffling) get some sabot slugs. They have a riffling built into the slug that gives you a little more distance and better accuracy.
