  1. Check the oil, throw in some fresh non ethanol gas if you can find it. Dose of seafoam, charge the batteries and run them. If they were used in October they are fine now, unless you had some major freezing issues.

    Take new plugs with you for the wave runner. The nature of the beast is bad for fouling plugs.

    If it aint broke don't fix it.

  2. I've gpt a bodyguard only ran about 40-50 rounds through it. Used WWB and Remington hollow points both Wally world value packs. No failures. Handles well sights are nice and functional. It is a gun you definitely need practice with to learn the trigger.

    Lagerhead is right on. BG really needs a SA/DA trigger.

    Buttons for the laser are difficult to operate, especially one handed. Laser is completely washed out in bright sun.

    The magazine release button is almost too easy to activate.

    I chose it over the LCP due to the sights and it was cheaper vs LCP with crimson trace.

    Below is the pattern from my first range trip with it.

  3. Nope, but I was dumb enough to buy the cmmg conversion bolt. Loved it until it sprayed powder back into my face several times and fired one .22 round that was halfway chambered...sold it for much less than I had in it.

    Had a Sig 522, sold it.

    The smart thing would have been a dedicated upper to start with....

    That rifle looks like tons of fun.

  4. the fact that it was a very first shot is suspicious to me. So lets get it straight, it wasnt the ammo, and there was no barrel obstruction.......so did daffy duck jump up and stick his finger in the barrel? of course im making light of a situation where the owner wouldnt own up to an ammo issue even if that is the most likely reason. Especially in front of other men at the range. No way the ego would let him admit it could be HIS fault

    No it was that Waskily Wabbit!

  5. I swear I heard that clip bounce off at least 3 different surfaces. I just hope it did not cause a rift in the space time continuum.

    Does anyone carry a kit for all the small pins, clips, springs etc for AR's?

    Not necessarily a LPK, but something like a gunsmith's screw set. Including pins, clips and springs?

  6. If you havent already ordered one, PM me your address and I'll drop one in the mail to you. Those little buggers do tend to fly off when changing the dust cover. Don't ask me how I know. :)

    Thanks for the offer to help. I already have some on order.

    That clip went flying off there at MACH 90!

  7. Ok, here's the back story. I managed to lose the Ejection port cover hinge pin snap ring on my AR. You know the little tiny clip that locks the hinge in place.

    So naturally I go to Midway to find one. They have them for @ $2 bucks and a little shipping.

    That got me thinking, I could likely buy this thing from the local hardware store for .50 or so.

    Has anyone ever seen or compiled a list of commonly available AR parts and sizes?

    You know the roll pins, springs, items you could easily pick up at Lowes or Advance for a few cents? The common non specialized type components?
