I still have a couple hundred rounds of 195, so il buy it as it pops up. $23 for 50 rounds is the going rate.....cheaper than 5.56.

I'm not sure what optic I want for the aug yet. How d you like yours so far?

cmr076 · 01-06-2013, 10:19 PM

It's my buddy Jon's (the one I split all my ammo purchases, etc. with), I was talking about buying it from him but once handling it last night I was turned off. Too heavy, typical junk bulpup plastic trigger, just didn't feel right. And the Eotech sat so awkwardly you had to use the tips of your fingers to manipulate the charging handle. He picked it up for $1700 last week from American arms and ammo up 309. You like bulpups from what I remember though so you'll probably love it, very solid feeling and ambidextrous too which is cool.

Got any other lowers you would part with

::edit::

You haven't checked ss195 pricing recently have you! Well over a dollar a round for the lead free stuff

Damn I love those augs. I know some one who just sold their brand new ps90 for 4k today.

Munky · 01-06-2013, 11:05 PM

This nonsense really makes me wish I would have held onto my MSAR STG556 a little while longer. It's nothing special but I definitely could have sold it to a noob for big bucks.

That's gun broker pricing, but I don't think anyone sells New 195 anymore (old stock) so 197 is the ammo I'm talking about.

And yes, I like the bull pups. Does he have a problem hitting his knuckles on the eotech when he uses the charging handle?

He hasnt shot it yet either, but Yea that's what I'm saying, when you pull the charging handle, it's so short that you can't grip it without having to maneuver around the eotech. I'd suggest getting the gun before ordering an optic for it! And as I'm sure you know, load up on mags haha

ITSTOCK · 01-07-2013, 08:30 AM

I got the NATO stock because I'm already loaded up on mags!

So it looks like that receiver extension kit I ordred from LaRue the other day is backordered to eternity, so does anybody know where I can get one of similar quality?

~Brian~ · 01-07-2013, 08:14 PM

Need a mil spec one so that it fits inside the buttstock. And why the hell is that so cheap??? I just paid almost $90 for that receiver extension kit from LaRue!

So even though that's a generic, the quality will be the same?

cmr076 · 01-07-2013, 10:03 PM

I mean mil spec is 1.148" so I can't imagine it's much different between brands, maybe different aluminum used, but for a range gun I can't see it mattering much.

~Brian~ · 01-07-2013, 10:18 PM

I see.. well if I may just wait a little longer for the LaRue, simply because I can't cancel part of an order. Plus if it's better aluminum (I know it doesn't matter, it's more for my ego... haha), the wait will be worth it.

I do realize that it will shoot the same though no matter what tube I have on there.

schaffer · 01-07-2013, 10:48 PM

anyone having trouble buying ammo....not finding but buying. More than one wally world is limiting the amount you can buy at one time. I'd order online but everyone is out of stock on target ammo.

Whatever you say! Better get it before adjustable assault rifle style stocks are banned though!

What are you looking for?

Quakertown Walmart has tons of Winchester white box 9mm, I picked up 500rds,

found 1000rds of Winchester ranger HP's at sgammo that I'm splitting with my buddy Steve,

Willow Grove and Neshaminy Walmarts had some 40S&W and .380,

Tullytown walmart does have Some shotgun ammo bulk packs, 410/20/12, .45, .380, .38 spec, and hunting rifle calibers.,

Palmyra Walmart had a good supply of .223 Remington 50 packs for ~$25. Nothing interns of 9mm or 40.

cabelas supposedly has a ok supply of 9mm of various types and about 100 boxes left of 223 50gr varmint tipped american eagle. ZERO 308 and ok amount of 7.62x39.

Hope that helps!

::edit::

Just reread your post, Walmart doesn't put a cap on how much you can buy.

~Brian~ · 01-08-2013, 01:04 AM

Hmm... didn't think of it like that.. lol

vDevilu · 01-08-2013, 03:00 PM

I hope when physical inventory time pass in the next couple weeks, stock will improve. Gwad, it sucks trying to get back into shooting with this whole mess. Been away for ~10 years.
