  1. Has anyone ever built a dedicated 1911? I have been thinking about doing exactly that. I know that there are a few options out there like the Chiappa 1911-22 or to just buy a conversion kit but I don't want the lack of after market of the Chiappa and don't care for conversions since they aren't dedicated. I was thinking that I could build a frame to my specs so it would be exactly like I wanted and then throw one of the conversion kits on it permanently. Which kind of brings up a few questions. Conversions range from 200 to 600 bucks. Anyone have any experience with them and what would you recommend? I want something with a threaded barrel or something with a barrel that I can thread after the fact because I do want to run a suppressor on this.
  2. I think I may be confused then. Are you wanting a mid-length upper or a carbine upper?
  3. No sir. Look at your link and mine at the same time. My link is a Midlength gas system and yours is a carbine length. I know they look the same but they are different.
  4. This upper is a carbine length gas system and would work with the MOE kit. This is a mid length upper. The gas system is two inches longer on this one. (mid-length is my personal preference). Spikes Tactical Complete Mid-Length 5.56/.223 Upper Receiver My personal rifle. CMMG lower, CMMG lower parts kit, CMMG midlength upper with 16 inch barrel, YHM midlength handguards, harris bipod, hogue grip, Aimpoint CompM2. I am most likely going to completely change this rifle soon. I am going to use an 18 inch bull barrel, scope it and put on a rifle length handguard to completely cover the gas block and then do a Magpul PRS stock.
  5. Just realized that you need to wait on that kit. You are ordering a mid length upper so the handguard in that kit would be too short. Plus, the magpul midlength MOE handguard isn't going to be out until later this year.
  6. YES! That MOE kit is fantastic. Go for it!
  7. Submitting the article to Digg. TN Senate overrides veto of guns bill
  8. I think you have a great list there but... Is there any reason that you are choosing a commercial stock? You will have more options (should you decide to change later) if you run a mil spec tube.
  9. I turned the stream off after the vote but I haven't left the thread. Great discussion here!
  10. I emailed Jackson thanking him and requesting a copy of his speech. I hope he replies. I would love to read his speech again and possibly post it on facebook and here.
  11. House Go for it. He works for you. You have the right to tell him exactly how you feel.
  12. The live stream says it
  13. Will be sharing as well!
  14. Your stream is faster than mine. BUT YIPEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Now, is it possible that this makes it through the House today?
  15. She lives in Memphis? Is she a friggin moron? Debbie Merreo (or something like that). I will be writing her to tell her how her constituency truely feels.
  16. Ok. Does anyone know if we can get a copy of Jackson's speech? If I had known it was going to be this good, I would have been transcribing it.
  17. A Democrat just said that he believes every good honest law abiding citizen deserves the right to choose to arm themselves. Everyone take shelter quick because I don't think we are going to make it until 2012.
  18. Whoever wrote Jackson's speech deserves an award!
  19. It would be an awesome deal if local dealers werent charging as much for the transfer as the receiver cost.
  20. Mad props to Jackson!
  21. They can't stop it but he is sure going to try. Regardless, it came up so it will definitely be voted on today!
  22. We gotta get Kyle out of office!
  23. ITS GOING DOWN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
