    sounds like a weaner!

    HAHA.. Let me know how she looks when you get her broken down.I inspected most of the high wear parts and didnt see anything overly bad. The second lug of the barrel needed a little work, the mag release needed some final fitting, the beavertail needed a little blending, and the sights of course..


    anywho.. keep us posted!

    they have kart ez-fit's all over gunbroker. there was one guy in texas who was selling them for like 20-30 percent off what kart / brownells was charging.

    anywho.. I was thinking of picking up one of those or a wilson NM barrels.

    I am prlly going to end up sending the frame and slide off for more machine work when i get it in.. not sure yet though

    I havent heard from him either. He assured me he was swamped with orders. They sold like 100 something combo's in a couple of days which is like 10x more than there normal work load. He said he would gurantee me my deal and all specials for as long as it took to get the order complete and the work order to me if that makes sense.

    By then I might have enough for the extra money for the aluminum goodies!!!

    Just got back from picking up my new tires for my truck, painting my wheels, getting them mounted and balanced, picking up a new fridge for my buddy, getting my truck stuck in his front yard, getting my truck all muddy, and getting back to the house.

    Fun evening.. Got a SHIT ton of crap to do tomorrow. No time for looking/searching for any parts. Oh well...

    Still no GOOGLE account focker!

    Holy crap.. I forgot how long it takes to build a set of class a's. I still have to get my rank fixed and my time in service strip added. I havent had to wear a pair for a long time so they are not up to par. Atleast I got all my medals and ribbons finally.

    I forgot I had two more to add today. Anywho..
