Fondled all my AR’s along with a wipe down and a function check. Made more food for them hungry EBR’s…

Bought an estate sale today with a bunch of Springfield 03 and a3_03 parts, a Oehler 35P chronograph and a Labradar.
No guns just misc parts and reloading stuff.

Range report on function and ergos would be appreciated. We didn't put a ton of rounds through it, just a few mags. First impressions: - I like the feel of the gun. - I go back and forth on the trigger. One minute I think it's decent, the next I think it's gritty and gross. It'll probably smooth out a little and be fine, but it's nothing special. - I do like not having the "blade" safety in the trigger. It's more comfortable on the finger. - No function issues, it shot just fine. I did clean it before I took it out. - It seems to be shooting high . . . like maybe 4" at least, at 10 yards. I need to go confirm this again, without the chaos of Ladies Day around me, but I may be buying some replacement sights for it. Overall, I'm very happy with this $300 gun, with the (yet to be confirmed) exception of not shooting to point of aim.

I picked up a Romeo 5XDR for $150 as well, from EuroOptic.com It all fits in a tiny shoulder bag, with 20rd mag.. and 6 - 30 rd bags.. without being too conspicuous.. although not exactly low profile, either.

I ordered through Armorally. Brownells.. It was $250 with a $15 off coupon.... That’s surely a lot better than the $300-350 range they been going for for years. There is also a lower out there with the hinged part as part of the lower.... but it's like $300... Which really isn't that much, considering a high quality lower is ~$80-100, plus $300 or so for what the adapter was going for.. Adds about 3/4" over a standard lower, vs about 1.75" over the side folding adapter... So it's actually a good deal if you're going that route.. https://www.newfrontierarmory.com/produ ... e-folding/.

Had some fun steel target shooting in Lubbock TX. What I discovered was one of my pistols (S&W 39-2) was shooting waaay left of the paper target at 25 yards so I adjusted it. The Dan Wesson 44 mag performed magnificently and completely blew off one of the small steel plates into the garden behind. LOL! All in all it was a good day!

Part of my curiosity comes from the hump of the back. Sometimes that doesn't fit well with me..
