Spare Parts Build

I had some parts sitting from a few of my fav LGS shops that went out of business post COVID...

26" HBAR 6.5 Creedmoor

SA .091AGB

New Frontier DPMS Low Upper

Aero Precision M5 Lower

Hiperfire ECLipse Trigger

Side CH

DD Furniture (will swap out for PRS)

Cryptic Coatings Mystic Black BCG

JP SCS H2

AR Maglock Gen. 4

Yes, I chose a Raiders motif cerakote... how did I do??

Can't find a suitable DPMS Low handguard, any suggestions are appreciated. Smoke Composites Carbon Fiber custom length may be my only recourse.

Is my build done??

"I'm thinking I'm back..."

Am I done? What other enhancements should I consider. Has anyone ported a P226 Elite, reliably?

Switched from Holosun 507Comp Ronin to 507C X3 Gold Dot, definitely better for my astigmatism. Range trip tomorrow to zero the dot and get a feel for the GrayGuns overhaul.

Need an assist finding a holster for a P226 with Viridian X5L Gen 2 light, Armory Craft Extended Takedown, and optic. It's proving quite challenging.

Future plans: (November)

Cerakote Pro slide

Cerakote LOK grips

Bar-Sto 5" extended ported barrel

Grayguns or AC Trigger Hammer?

TIA

First P226

I've always wanted a P226, since shooting them in the service... I came across a deal and acquired this Scorpion CA... What are the best upgrades and preventative replacements?? TIA

My first Blemula Build

Built two Geissele SD ARP's in the last 2 years 14.5" .300BLK & 11.5" .223 WYLDE... so I decided to make one i could train wifey and kids on... Another .300BLK 8" Geissele/Aero Hybrid... but I'm not feeling the Aero lower pistol receiver, so... I'm hunting a DDC Lower Receiver rn...

Perfect Storm P320 Carry OOJ

SIG AXG Grip Module

SIG Legion LOK Brass Grips

Springer Precision Brass Magwell

AC Slide Release

2A Zone Slide

NDZ Recoil Spring kit

MCARBO Adjustable Trigger

PX4 Storm .40 --> 10 mm

I'm I the only one that loves the PX4 rotating barrel and the 10 mm cartridge?? "Your chocolate in my peanut butter," thing...

Has anyone tried to have a custom 10mm barrel made, can gun handle the pressure/rotation? If LTT can modify a chambering, go big or go home!

AB 1263/SB 704

I'm upset that a lot of my favorite companies are outright refusing to ship firearm accessories to CA. I understand serialized lowers, barrels, maybe even triggers, but furniture, and all the small parts that could be generic as car parts!?

Upload ID, ship to matching address with signature! Where are all the extra charges coming from? FFL's are getting an increase in foot traffic and still charging $20-$50 to accept a package!?

Driven Arms Co. comes to mind, I bought 2 before 2026 but had to go back to ERGO grips (great grip) for another project build, it's ridiculous! Another company I couldn't even buy a customized battery cap for my ACRO P-2 optic! Literally described part is a battery cap.

Make this make sense!

PHLster Enigma...

Mail Call! Thanks to all who offered holster suggestions for my PX4 Storm! I'm sure I'll be getting another but the PHLster Express LB X300 kit w/ Wedge Rx is virtually a perfect fit... only thing I'd like to add is belt clips but I definitely need to tweak it a bit more.

Shipping was lightning fast...

I'm contemplating adding an optic to my PX4 but want one that best fits the Beretta rounded slide profile... pics would be helpful.

I think SIG and Holosun have the lowest form factor, but I'm up for suggestions.

I'd like a concealable carry type holster IWB/AIWB that can accommodate the Vantage Point Compensator, Surefire X300 combination and potentially an optic. PHLster compatibility is a plus.
