Decided to step up in calibre for some extended range, into a .308 semi-auto. It's very similar to an ar10, but uses an in-house upper and lower receiver from a builder called Alberta Tactical. Being that it is not compatible with AR receivers, it was classified non-restricted so it was the only choice as an ar10 wasn't on the table. The cost however is high, slightly less than $3k usd.

18.6" 1:10 match barrel, timney trigger, direct impingement gun. Haven't gotten the chance to do anything more than sight it in, but hopefully it turns out to be a very accurate platform. Yes I like the a2 stock, no it is not going anywhere. Changing it out for something less sturdy is not an option, nor is an unnecessary adjustable brick.

A German shooting guns for the first time. First the 45-70, he loved it. Before we went he said he didn't like guns at all. After he said he wanted to own one.

After some help from my neighbor (retired trooper), i was able to get my two handgun permits approved! Picked up an HK VP9 and a SW 627 Pro series. I feel happy now.

I figured i'd get one before the prices get any higher. Shot it for the first time today. Definitely a fun shooter and thanks for the link. Ill check it out.

I also did the murphy firing pin mod, look it up, and now I need to get a different recoil spring. I had the popped primers because my firing pin bent. Some say it's due to not getting all of the goo out of the firing pin channel.

Built myself an AK pistol right before 2015 came around. Romy Draco Mini, with a bunch of fun crap. Pings plates out to 200 yards consistently. CA legal.

Out of jail:


Current state:


An SKS I built in 2014, and sold after I built it.


I like my 7.62's.

My wife shooting the large AR:




I always grew up around guns but never had much interest in them until the past few years. I like mechanical things, building with my hands, and uh things that go boom.... it was love at first build.
