Aero Precision upper came in today. It "has a blem" so I got that and the Gen 2 MLOK rails for $200. Looked over everything thoroughly and could not identify any blemishes.
Got my permission to train back from the police. Now I just need my handgun club to rubber stamp the training forms and I'll get my handgun licence back. So glad I don't have to go through training again but I still have to go through the 6 month waiting period before I can buy a handgun.

Not many, which is why the NRA sponsors their token black guy.

Ever visited the south? His accent isn't even bad. I don't really remember the last time I heard him mention him being a vet. either. Aside from the name, I guess. Usually, it's relevant. When he was talking about why Berettas get a bad rap from a lot of prior-service folks, and cites the shitty, worn Berretas in arsenal when he was in comes to mind.

I mean the only colion noir vid ive seen was on the sig 2022 when i was considering getting one. It stuck out because it was a solid well structured video without any extra antics that stood out from most of the rest of the youtube gun channel circlejerk.

I don't mind IV8888 as long as he keeps away from politics. As soon as he opens his mouth on that, my train of thought is replaced by a looped recording of "shut the fuck up you dumb piece of shit".

CN gets heavily into the political side of things, and him being NRA-sponsored, it's impossible to tell where his actual opinion ends and his bosses' opinions begin. I also think his videos tend to be over-edited, but that's just me.
I'm not a fan of IV8888 purely because i just don't find his channel enjoyable.
TFB I can't stand purely because he comes across as cocky
I love Hickock.

sootch does have some on-point non-bs videos about installation of certain AR parts/handguards which i appreciate. clear filming and detailed instructions. i absolutely hate when some fat-ass hick is trying to show installation of X EY URR FIFTEEYEN part and the only thing you see is his shoulder blocking his 5W light bulb shining down onto his hand covering the part in question, all filmed in glorious 240p 15fps.
the outro thing with god bless the republic of jesus' coveted free states of minutemen II makes me cringe, hard.[/QUOTE]
I'm biased for a few reasons so take it as you will but I'm originally from alabama and my accent makes IV8888's look tame by comparison.
I also personally know Eric and Chad (lived in fairburn,GA/Worked in peachtree city for 2 years my house was 15 minutes from MP&G bought ALOT of guns there)
Eric/chad/the people on IV8888's channel just remind me of the people I grew up with/around and that's honestly one of the reasons i like erics videos as much as I do. Hell I've shot with the guys from MP&G more than a few times as far as eric goes he's just an all around good dude. Like I said in the beginning I'm biased and I know that but that's just my 2 cents so take it as you will
I think we can at least all agree that Hickock45 is great.
I just hate the politics of guns in general. Whenever I tell people I like guns many automatically assume I pray to Ronald Reagan and believe Mike Pence is going to "save us all". As a supporter of LGBT rights, atheist humanist, supporter of a livable wage, etc. It hurts my head that people make such assumptions due to my strong support of the 2nd Amendment. It's a shame that people only see "red" or "blue" these days.

You guys have it easy, in Canada, we have to apply for our license, and then wait 6 months to 1 year for it before we can possess a non-restricted firearm.

Yeah I'm probably the most liberal person in this thread but I love my guns and I've been shooting since I was in kindergarten

IV8888 was better when Barry was still alive. Used to have a bit more silly antics and a bit less politics, like the Mosin Nagant torture test.

aaawww shit, the old guy died? He was for sure the best part of that channel.
Didn't he get arrested, then die?
He died ages back.

Yea but you guys get cheap Russian and Chinese imports. Your SVT40s are $250 where as ours are $1,500. You also get SBS' without a $200 tax stamp and 9 months of paperwork.
I wouldnt want your situation but its not so bad.

I could tolerate Canadian firearm laws if they dropped the magazine restrictions and the dumbass prohibited/restricted/unrestricted system.

They're up to about $450 now.
Well... guys....
I'm getting myself an M1 Garand. And an Ariasaka. And a Mauser 98. Next week.
[QUOTE=DaCommie1;51801302]They're up to about $450 now.[/QUOTE]
Still a third of the price of one in the US. I got a good deal on mine and had a collector offer me $2,500 a few years back. Couldnt get that if I tried now but still

Yeah. I think he got a DUI then had a heart attack/heart failure not long after that.
What do you guys think of this? [url=https://www.atlanticfirearms.com/component/virtuemart/shipping-rifles/arsenal-slr104fr-31-5-45x39mm-side-folding-rifle-detail.html?Itemid=0]AK74M style[/url]
Looks pretty good to me, but I'm no expert when it comes to buying guns.

Just be aware that the coating they use isn't the most durable finish. It tends to bubble if heated up too much and can flake off. If there is anything wrong with Arsenal, it's this besides their pricing.

Don't waste money on an arsenal. You pay twice as much for a marginal quality increase. It's an AK, you don't need to spend that much on one.

I can understand that, but does anyone else make AK74M style AKs?
It's kinda difficult to find AK74s in general compared to AK47s

That is true. Veprs and Saigas are a good option, you may be able to find one at a gunshop or gunshow still. A local shop here still had a 5.45 Vepr for $600 not that long ago.
