Now I have to build another AR, maybe.

[GunnyUSMC]

At lunch today I stopped in at a pawn shop close to work. I hadn’t been in the shop in about eight months. As I was looking around the manager comes out and tells me hi. He asked where I’ve been, I just said, been busy.
We shoot the bull a little and I see a Magpul MOE rifle buttstock in the case with a price tag of $24.99. I saw that there was a buffer tube and two QD sling mounts on the stock. It was OD Green, wish it was black. I asked to look at it. It was marked as a carbine stock, and was like new.
I told him I would take it. He rang it up and that will be $21. An even better deal.
Now I’m not sure if I’m going to use it for an upcoming build or trade it off.

And that class is how ARs reproduce! Quiz on firday!

I would probably trade it for something else, but I've never liked the OD furniture.

Always thought they reproduced in my safe, but I've never actually caught them at it......

Gunny

Build...build...build! Definitely more interesting than trading it off.

Gunny
You need to send some of that luck to me. I need some deals like those when I have $$$

 

[H&R Glock]

When I get too old to keep my collection..... I'll open a pawn shop next to Gunny's house. Guaranteed sell out in 24 hours!

 

[MachIVshooter]

Might as well build it.

That reminds me, I still have a Flat Spot weld together lower I did for shiggles and gits awhile back, need to finish it. Thinking total Road Warrior/Serenity/other dystopia type theme with a DOM tube upper sporting a triangular handguard made from hot rolled square tube cut & bent, a welded on receiver extension with steel butt plate. Not sure what else, but it'll come to me!

 

[Mosin Bubba]

I mean, for that good of a deal, you've pretty much got to finish building the lower... and then that lower's going to need an upper

Enjoy the build!

 

[gulogulo1970]

Heck, I've bought a gun just because I had left over ammunition I could not shoot. Having an extra stock is more than enough reason to build. I've built around a scope before. Go nuts, what's the worst that can happen, you'll have another AR?

 

[horsemen61]

Build it!!!

 

[LoonWulf]

need to finish it.

yes. you. DO!

 

[adcoch1]

Got a 50 BMG upper yet Gunny? That stock would work great for a TRUE big bore ar...

I was going to say Gunn6 should do a budget/bargain bin build but a 50 BMG sounds like a huge idea.

 

[Elkins45]

That would look good on my 458 SOCOM.

 

[GunnyUSMC]

I do need a buttstock for my 458 SOCOM build, and was thinking of going with a MOE rifle stock, but i'm doing it in black.

 

[alfsauve]

I bought a bear creek side charging upper to try on one of my ARs. I like it, but now I have a spare upper. Hmmm. ..300bo? 9mm? 6.8xx?

At one time I collected .45 brass from the range. When I had about 1,000 rounds, I decide to load 50 of them. Then I announced to the wife I NEEDED, had to have, a 1911 so I could test fire the ammo.


Any excuse will do.

You can always dye it with easily found RIT dye if you can't trade it across.

No wife. No excuse needed for anything I do.

 

[WestKentucky]

If you don’t end up using it I will give you your money back. I paid 25 for the one I have (black) and live it. I’m going to redo my carbine into a rifle, and plan to use the same stock.

 

[js8588]

Green somehow screams "50 Beowulf" to me.

 

[Ks5shooter]

I see a new AR in your future......

No but you can’t resist the power the guns have on you.

You need to join ARs not so Anonymous

Step one — admit you have a problem
Step Two — say *&$##&(
Step Three - get another AR or assemble another
Step Four - skip steps one and two and go back to step 3

Something tells me that the hot witchy chick likes Victory Revolvers as much as she likes ARs. And knowing how Gunny works, he will have her paying for the meal on their dates. He is just that stinkin lucky.
