I'm pretty satisfied with buying this 5.11 belt srs. Went to the store and had my Shield IWB and it feels fine. Not uncomfortable at all. Also all of my holsters fit 1.5" belts.

I use duratracs as my winter tires on my ranger. Absolutely love them. Hardly need 4x4 unless I hit real bad ice, deep snow, or want to drive really aggressively. No need to air them down. For my summer/off-roading tire I use the Goodyear MTR Kevlars, they destroy my gas mileage, but they're awesome for anything other than slick roads

Duratracs are 31x10.5x15

MTRs are 33x12.5x15

Did he ever rotate? I got great mileage out of the duratracs i had on my yj. They still looked almost brand new at 25k before i upgraded to 35s.

What size are the MTRs cause they handle like crap in anything wet for me, especially sleet, ice

And rotating often is always key for big tires to last

35x12.50r15. I've got a short wheelbase, maybe that's why.

Weird. Ranger wheel base is pretty short too (although I do have an extended cab), not wrangler short...but still surprised it's THAT big a difference. Truck feels useless in snow in 2wd with the MTRs while the duratracs feel amazing in 2wd at highway speeds in the same weather

Why?
Probably feels safe in the small crate, or just giving the middle finger to the little dog and letting him know he can take his crate.

My new KO2s are pretty quiet but took more of my mpg with the rotational weight. Load range D 10 ply sidewall. Won't be getting any flats from the soybean stalks going through the sidewall though.

Really looking at these scopes for my mini
Not a huge magnification since the mini isn't known to be a tack driver and a 1000 yard gun, but it's something that'll be good for 100-200 yards out.
Either this or Tritium sights for my SR9c or Shield is next.

The Z8 only has like 60 minutes of total elevation in the scope, the X5 and the K624i have about 90. The X5 is actually a really nice scope, but Swarovski won't put a mil dot reticle in their scopes.

Sword,

Many companies will sell their upper assembled instead of stripped, but you need to know whether it's got its internals or not. If you're buying in parts, you need:

-Stock
-Buffer Assembly (Receiver Extension, Buffer Spring, Buffer)
-Lower Receiver
-Lower Parts Kit (Most include a cheap pistol grip, trigger, and trigger guard, but there are kits that come without them, or that come with upgraded components)
-Upper Receiver
-Bolt Carrier Group
-Charging Handle
-Barrel
-Rail Assembly (Many new rails come with their own barrel nut. If you buy a rail that clamps on to a stock barrel nut/Dring then you'll need one of those)
-Gas Tube
-Gas Block/Front Sight Assembly
-Muzzle Device


Ballistic advantage makes decent barrels for building your own AR, andwww.monmouthreloading.comsells them with a 30% discount pretty often.


If you're building it from pieces, you'll need an armorer's wrench, a torque wrench (Advance Auto Parts will loan you one with a $30 deposit for free), a punch set, a nylon/rubber hammer, a vice block for your upper, a vice, needlenose pliers, a screwdriver, and painter's tape to save your finish. You might want to buy a cotter pin for installing the pivot pin detent.

There are lots of good videos out there. Watch a few complete assembly videos and learn what all the parts are before you get started.

Here's an interesting trick I've found that everyone might not know.

If you take somebody's phone number and put it into the search bar on ********, 90% of the time it will show you their profile. I guess everyone has their numbers linked to their account these days. Really works great when you're trying to sell something online and a random number texts you and you want to get a look at them before agreeing to meet.

Can't say, as I didn't ask. The cupping happened pretty quick after install. They are known for being soft and having weak sidewalls. Only relevant if you air down and encounter rocks , I guess.

Rack is made by Front Runner. All aluminum platform, with steel base. The rack is modular and has 30-40 accessories that attach via slots in the rack. Pretty easy to add accessories you need and remove again for daily driving.

I got:

-MOE Grip+
-Magpul CTR Stock

Going to cop that CMC trigger, one of the best I've played with. My friend is getting me a lower and I will buy an upper (pretty sure it comes with the sights on it). Do I need stuff like a Trigger Guard, Selector, or will the upper/lower come with that stuff too?
Buy one of these from this seller

http://www.gunbroker.com/a/feedback/profile/350199

Then you'll have an extra lower, always a good thing.
