Had a good time last night shooting away with some local bloggers and our out of town guests. Dr. Helen has a pic in which she’s shooting my 9MM AR. And Glenn, I prefer the term regular capacity magazine.
How about “politically incorrect ammunition containment device that should really have no impact on the function of the weapon as military 1930’s semi-auto rifles usually held 10-15 rounds and those killed just fine anyway (30 round magazines appeared on various handheld machine guns to feed them for a high rate of fire)”.
How do you like your AR-15 in 9mm? Which one is it? For some reason I have a hot spot on my wish list for a Carbon-15 in 9mm. No particular reason, in terms of defensive use I suppose it is the equivalent of a long barrelled pistol, but for some reason and utralight 9mm carbine appeals to me.
Love it. by far, my favorite to shoot. I decided to build one merely to have an AR i could shoot at an indoor range. I like ARs but it’s cold three months out of the year.
Which one is it?
It’s a mixed bag that I built. Details here and here.
I’ve since added a yankee hill free float tube and flip up front sight. I’m processing the paperwork to shorten the barrel to 7 inches.
Where did you shoot and when are you going to do it again so I can take part?
You all suck. I’m here, sweating in Florida, and haven’t hit the range in weeks (and coming from a guy who goes sometimes twice a week, well, it stinks).
Plus you got to meet up with Glenn. Seems like TN is the heartland of blogging.
Anyone ever make it down near Tampa, give me a holler.

A bit long, though.

What say you?

Next time, i’ll announce it on the blog.
