Thanks,

I have a pretty bad obsession for guns that tend to keep my pockets a little on the light side.

Here's a few more pics of my favorite:

hello there Brad. Good thread.

i personally own just a springfield .45 government model for just in case.

right now i'm building m4 with class 3 license. i been shooting for a long time now and i go shooting here at the range in iraq, just about every day. rounds are free so hell, i go crazy. i'm getting so much better with reflexsive fire in close range.

my current m4 has x4 power leapers scope, but i like ACOG x4 power better so i'm going back to that. i also have m68 red dot close quarter sight, which i use close combat.

i carry just a barretta 9mm but i ordered .45s for the soldiers for better stoping power. i do go shoot military m24 sniper rifle...i wish i had these back home. cost so much.

of course there are m249 semi-automatic machine gun, which is customized with short barrel and short butt stock that folds up and 240b 7.62 machine gun.

nothing beats the good o' wwII .50 cal machine gun firepower but i dont go up on a turret and shoot those.

This maybe a stupid question but will this be yours to keep once you build it? Or just for your stay in Iraq?


Can't wait to see some more pics!

Later

I have tried few different set up with the M4 and i know pretty much how i want my personal M4 to be, so i getting with friend who builds m4 to make me one.

once the basic m4 is assemble, i can customize it myself. i also have experinced armorer, so he can help me modify it.

for example, you can acutally buy semi M4 and make it into full auto just by doing a small little thing. =P

yes sir it is, unless you have class III permit to own automatic weapons.

Sweet pics Aaron, if you want you can smuggle a few of the "weapons laying around" back to the states j/k

When you get home we should go to a range, and maybe you could help me with
doing a small little thing. =P
to my AR-15.....I already have the pieces....just lack the knowledge or trust for anyone around here to help me with the install.









Edit:
Aaron eat man, how much weight have you dropped ?

Thanks everyone for the explanation, dispite some obvious differences of opinion it helps.

Hollow points for home protection make sense to me

I read something about neoprene (spelling?) jacketed bullets, whats the deal with that?

Any one try the point and shoot method. I did, worked well. Comments suggestions welcomed.

What is this FBI shoot out everyone is talking about?


Links/info? Good guns sites? Anyone care to share any?
