    I can tell this pluck and pull foam will be a problem with repeated manipulation. Need to get a polyethylene foam custom cut for this case. Anyone know or use people in Houston for that?

    Probably neither. Both are great and you can’t go wrong.

    I’d build another aero. I really like them (built 3) and that’s prob all I will build when I want something quality. I am going to build a cheap as possible Palmetto gun just for kicks.

    You in austin?

    Houston.
     

    Beautiful setup!

    Zero’d in the HK 556 last week. That’s a heavy rifle. Will likely add some more weight to it by placing a magpul bipod on the front M-LOK rail. 

  3. I was about to be all in on a Sig Rattler till I heard issues with cycling subsonic rounds, even with the adjustable gas block at max setting. Would likely go for the SBR version of the HB if I went that route 

  4. Any of you that run 300blk, what was the usual CPR pre covid/shortage?  Want a Sig Rattler but don’t want to spend 1k on 500 rounds of subs either. 

  5. Went to both my academy’s yesterday. Both had 4 box limit on non shotgun ammo. Plenty of 22, 556, and 762x39 (in steel only). Lots of other shit too but I don’t own those calibers so can’t comment on volume

  6. Any of you run offset red dots? Putting the Vortex LPVO on the HK 556. Already have some offset Troy sights coming in for that. Was considering putting an offset red dot as well. What do y’all think? Overkill?

     

     

  7. Academy at westheimer and voss had a fuckton of ammo today. Bought 2 200 round boxes of Winchester green tip 556 for $130/. Swung back around at the academy off Kirby and they had loads of 556 ammo. 400 round boxes of Federal FMJ for $290/

     

    ended up buying 2 200 round boxes of 22LR at $33/

  8. One of my dad’s policeman patients gave him this Smith & Wesson .357 Highway Patrolman model 30+ years ago. We went and shot it once when he got it and never again. Asked my mom to give it to me. Needs a good cleaning but excited to shoot it if I can find the ammo at Academy. Damn thing is heavy. As Boris the Blade said, “Heavy is good, heavy is reliable. If it doesn't work, you can always hit them with it”

    So, I happened to be passing thru las vegas, and stopped at Bass Pro. 

    They had some .22, and a shitload of .223.  Like 1000 rd. boxes of .223.

    Anyway, they have a 5 box limit, so I grabbed 3 boxes of Aguila .22 for 6.95 a box, and for shits and goggles, I grabbed 2 boxes (20 rds each) of CCI 22 LR shotshell.

    So, tell me about this shotshell that I bought.  I've never used it.  Ok for pistol or rifle? Is one better than the other?   Is it good to blast rats/gophers? 

    How much was the 1000 round of .223 going for?  I bought 2 300 round boxes from academy for $200 each last week
