    Forgive me!

    From left to right,

    Radical 7.5" Upper, SAA Lower, PSA Pistol LPK 5.56

    Bushmaster 16" M4A3 my wife got me and was my first AR 5.56

    PSA M16A3 Clone 20" 5.56

    APF Armory .308 20". I actually got this thing brand new for about 900 bucks and I couldn't be more pleased with it. It has functioned flawlessly and I was shooting 6" steel gong's at 300 yards the first day with surplus steel cased ammo.

    Just have to say thank you again! This is a great idea and turned out awesome thanks to the instructions on this video. Put 4.5 capfuls of dye in a half full put that was just big enough for the mag. Took about 4 minutes for the mags and 2 minutes or so for the bottom plates. Really easy way to customize the look of your AR and set it apart.

    I shoot with my regular prescription glasses. I have safety glasses that fit over them. I've tried shooting without them and I can't see shit.

    Left eye closed and right eye open.

    going to be fun!
    With the state of the firearms industry at the moment, I was talking to a few manufacture reps this weekend at an open house and they made it seem likes it's going to be a buyers market real soon. One independent rep said that when at the shot show in Jan the major manufacture like S&W,Ruger,Springfield,FN and others are way over stocked by upwards of 6 Million guns sitting in warehouses collecting dust. He expects Ar's and other firearms will be sold at cost or even below cost to make room as new 2017 models are hitting the market and not selling.

    I'm just saving my money right now to see where this goes....
