That’s where I got to with the CWP, had it for a while however due to SC reg's all the places (anywhere that serves alcohol like concert, state fare, bar / restaurant, etc) that I would want to carry I couldn't. And since SC has decent carry allowances for your car (same as the ones mentioned I think) I let it go.

Funny story, got pulled by a cop once and when you have your CWP and get pulled you have to declare it and the fact that you have a weapon in the car. Cop spent a half hour on the radio trying to figure out what to do and by the time she had the procedure figure out she let me go on the speeding outa frustration

That said I work for a company that sells guns (all types) to retailers. Crazy thing is to walk into work and see a vendor (say Beretta) with a couple dozen guns set on a table... gives ya a warm feeling inside

Well, after much research, looks like i'm building my own. I'll fill you in on the details later.

Not too much honestly. What i know is what i hear about them in the gun forums i visit. I'm trying to get my hands on a G3/CETME anyways hellfire:

I hear all kinds of good shit about MEGA uppers and lowers. But they can be difficult to locate. I turn you over to the good folks at [url:1bd1f]http://www.ar15.com[/url:1bd1f]. Those forums are filled with hand built AR15s and stock full of the knowledge you'll need. Check out the pictures thread and you'll see just about every configuration of Ar15 you can think of. You may see something you like in there.

Simo Häyhä · 03-24-2007, 01:49 PM

I hear good things about Bushmaster as well. Get one soon before Hillary takes office!

Arkan · 03-24-2007, 03:06 PM

Yeah, i've been a member over at AR15 for about a week now.....very informative site. I agree about Bushmaster, nobody has any complaints. I'll know more on Monday since i'll be going to the gun range/store to try out my .22 revolver. I'll take some time to see what they have available and pick the guys brain a bit. I'll tell you one thing, if i had $3000 to piss away, i'd get [url=http://www.army.lt/guns/gallery/H031.jpg:fe011]THIS[/url:fe011]. The civilian version of the MP5.

LMT is the fucking shit.

Sgt. Paine · 03-26-2007, 02:15 PM

my dads m1903 springfield is tight, brand new condition. i want to go shoot it but prices on ranges around here are retarded

Arkan · 03-26-2007, 11:07 PM

Ok, now i'm back to maybe buying a whole rifle again. A buddy got a "hard to beat" price for me (New Bushy). I'll know more tomorrow.

If i opt to outright buy the whole rifle, i'm STILL going to build my own. I already have all the shit i want picked out. Spoke to a few dealers over the phone and will be placing some orders. Looks like i'm about to join the "Evil Black Rifle" club. Perhaps i should build a 20" in camo.
