Roman Report post Posted January 2, 2013 http://www.thetruthaboutguns.com/2013/01/r...odern-firearms/ ROFLMAO... I actually hope they pass it, so it can get to the USSC in an emergency session, be shot down, and all this nonsense will stop.

Gilligan740 Report post Posted January 2, 2013 My AR arrives tomorrow. Purchased it for the pre-panic price on GunBroker. I could kick myself for not picking up a few extra mags while I was at it. And ammo for that matter. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Callaway Report post Posted January 3, 2013 Looking for a Colt 6920 or 6940 myself but havent been able to track one down at a reasonable price. Also, what's everyone think of the Kal-Tec KSG 12? My LSG had 4 of them yesterday when I went in, thought it could be good for home defense! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

My LSG had 4 of them yesterday when I went in, thought it could be good for home defense! I saw a 6920 at a gun show last week. Asking price....$5,000. Whew. I have no personal experience with the KSG. But I want one bad. MSRP was like $800 and it would be great at that price. Panic buyers have it jacked up into the mid $2000 range as far as I have seen. Another cool shotgun similar to the KSG is the SRM 1216 semi auto shotgun. Check out FSPrussia's review video on it on YouTube. Really cool and same price as KSG.

Callaway Report post Posted January 3, 2013 I would love a KSG. Any clue what your LSG was offering them for? I think they were $1700, but I didn't get a good look at the tag. Called a little while ago and they already sold them all. They are supposed to get more in soon though so I jumped on the waiting list.

Castor Troy Report post Posted January 3, 2013 I would love a KSG. Any clue what your LSG was offering them for? Saw one on the store today that was listed as not for sale, but it had a price tag of $1,999. on it. On a good note, my FS2000 came in. This thing is BAD ASS. The looks are subjective, but I like them. The overall balance of the gun is perfect, it's light, and the ergonomics are awesome. Depending on reliability, I'd take this think over an AR carbine any day. The barrel length is actually 17.5", but because the bullpup design, the gun is so short that it's basically a short barreled rifle. Nice and compact feeling. Not front heavy at all becuase the action is in the buttsock. The best news is there's no room for all the AR15 Magpul fags to buy them and ruin them by covering them in rails and mounting Magpul crap all over it. There is an aftermarket front rail that FN makes, but most that buy it dont' like it and say it messes up the balance of the gun and they put the "breadloaf" front grip back on. AAA+++ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
duhawks Report post Posted January 3, 2013 I just picked up an AR 15. Put a sweet EO tech red dot on it and also the EO tech 3x magnifier that flips to the side when you hit the button. Bought about 20 30 round clips. Not sure what I will use this for but it looks awesome. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HannibalACP82 Report post Posted January 3, 2013 2k for the KSG is really steep. Have to wait for them to come down. I have always loved the looks of the ps90 way more then the 2000 but it is growing on me. I willhave to take a look at one. Duhawks...pics of the ar pronto!!!

duhawks Report post Posted January 3, 2013 It is pretty sweet. The magnifier really helps when you are shooting at the range and if you are really close to the targets you just flip the silver switch and it flips to the side. I dont know what I got a stranger look from my Fiancee for...... coming home with this, or telling her that I put twin turbos on the car Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HannibalACP82 Report post Posted January 4, 2013 Sounds like she is a keeper if all she did was give you the stank eye! Gun looks sweet but don't let Castor see it all magpul'd out!! Do you like have the vertical grip that far back? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
duhawks Report post Posted January 4, 2013 Haha yep. Did that all last month too. Gave her a ring and we bought a house. My toy fund has gone dry and need to build it back up! I do like it there. It was really awkward to have it further up the gun. I am a horrible shot with a hand gun but this thing is a breeze to shoot accurate.

Castor Troy Report post Posted January 4, 2013 Gun looks sweet but don't let Castor see it all magpul'd out!! Do you like have the vertical grip that far back? LOL. It's a cool gun. I just don't understand why everyone buys a 6 pound AR, then put 7 pounds of stuff on them. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
duhawks Report post Posted January 4, 2013 I agree. The. Thing is really light but heavy as crap with all that stuff on it. Really the EO Tech red dot is all you need. I just have issues with getting carried away. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlie Report post Posted January 4, 2013 Duhawks, please remember your ammo goes in a magazine. A clip is literally a clip that holds the ammo to load your magazine - clip assists in loading ammo into the metal magazines primarily for military (the clip does not work with pmags). Castor Troy - every firearm should have a light source and scope or red dot. In my eyes this is a must. Reason why AR's are so popular is because ammo, parts, etc are readily available. If you are just going to the gun range and are not doing anything serious then just a red dot or scope is fine. You definitely want your firearm to be as light as possible and balanced (agreed). BUT their is no way I am going into any scenario without a light source (firefight can easily go into the night), red dot with magnifier (great option and proven), or something like a Leupold Mark 6 (which I like if I am not doing all CQB training), and if you have NV, etc then IR etc is paramount. Duhawks set up is perfect (not overdone). His vertical grip does appear to be pretty close to magazine - If you like it that close you may just want to use the magazine as your vertical and then you have room for a good hand forward grip...best way to engage if you ask me.

Clip loads a magazine, magazine feeds a gun. I am partial to acogs, have them on two rifles now and had them on a bunch in the past. The flip magnifier is cool but I would be worried about how it holds zero. With all that being said, I think BUIS (backup iron sights) are a must, batteries die and the Eotech would just get in the way at that point (another reason I like tritium) everyone learning to use long guns should learn on iron sights in my opinion. I agree his setup is almost perfect, I'd add iron sights (flip up ones for this application probably), Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
