It was bound to happen and 3 people got ripped off in the process. One of my good clients send me a big wad of cash and it didn't make it.
He got ripped off.
I got ripped off.
AND the Teacher/Pastor so many of you helped my buy an AR15 to defend his school with got ripped off.
So DON'T mail cash. If you mail a personal check, make sure you disguise/insulate it within the envelope. These creeps can whitewash your check and make your bank account jingle like a slot machine. It's not known if this theft occurred on my end or his.
So, from now on, USE MY FIRST INITiAL ONLY PLEASE.
I am still taking contributions for the Pastor/Teacher if you would like to be a part of that PM me. For those of you who already contributed you have my gratitude. I did get the rifle, now I need some accessories. I did have 2 guys mail me a check with some additional for this fund. I noted their contribution and saved it in my phone. Then I lost my phone. So, if that was you, please PM me so I can check my list because I need to add you to it!

OK, as to the accessories for the AR15 I am looking to score, I need some new magazines, some used magazines, a set of small base dies, and set of flip up sights made of steel, a sling with no plastic keepers, and other such and sundries.
Yesterday one of our good members came up with a Sure Fire weapon light. Not one of the new generations ones but a brand new in the box example. I used one for years and mine is still on my AR15 so I know its going to work!!!
If you want to do funds, a 10 or 20 is fine. It accumulates and adds up pretty good! Thanks guys!!!!
As always, I remain at your service!

Fermin do you use the USPS Informed Delivery app? It sends you pictures of mail that is expected to be delivered that day. Also provides
package delivery info to your address as soon as the shipper creates a shipping label. It gives you an option to notify them if you didn’t receive a mail piece as pictured. If theft is occurring by the mailman or at your mailbox this is how you could find out.

I’ll send some Magpul mags to you for him. How many mags do you need, Fermin? Do you really need used mags? I can send new ones, but if there is a real need for used mags I have some of them too. Robb, I can send some too if more are needed. |

I'm going to send half a dozen to him. Hopefully that will do it.

Robb, I can send some too if more are needed. Great question Doug, and so everybody understands, I break my magazines down into 2 categories. I have my fighting mags and my practice mags. My fighting mags get test fired, cleaned up, and then loaded as appropriate and set aside as ready. My practice mags come from my older fighting mags. My practice mags are the ones that get dropped on the concrete, in the mud, and just generally get shown no quarter. So yep. He doesn't have either so he needs both. I already have a few used ones. Kind of a shame to take brand new mags and start beating the snot out of them. This also applies to my auto pistols guys. My 1911s generally get new mags every 6-9 months. Or I at least change the springs. Some magazines are meant to be loaded to capacity and some are not. Try it with a Glock and you will sure enough kill the spring but a Beretta is good to go. The older style AR mags need to be kept to 28 while the H&K steel mags can do 30 without any problems. I haven't tested the Mag Pul mags enough to have a opinion on them. Shotguns cannot stand to be left loaded to capacity for any length of time PERIOD. It will kill that mag spring and your gun wont feed from the tube. |

Keep the "fighting" MagPul's to 28 rds. to reduce fatigue on the feed lips.

Magpul did, that’s why they include the little mag top cover, it is designed to push down slightly on the top rounds to reduce stress on feed lips, if you use it you can load up.

Correct, not sure if those are still available? I think only Gen 1 Mags on those. Gen 2 diff. design...

You can still buy the Magpull Mag covers for the new mags separately. They just don't come on the mags anymore. If you do as many of us do and keep them loaded, they are indispensable as a tool to assure good performance. As a rule I keep all my mags loaded. What good is an empty mag??
