Great non encounter! I guess I need to get off my lazy butt and start OCing on metro when I'm in town. I'm so dang paranoid about that as I don't have a car... OTOH Sound Transit knows better know, and obviously KCM isn't throwing you off the bus...
Nice gun. Needed a .22?
(Just ribbin' you, I'm a died in the wool soviet weapons fan, wish I had the money to drop on a nice rifle like you did.) I always figured anything that Sarah Brady wanted banned is a Good Thing.
Let us know how it shoots!

Hey, to be fair, the first rifle I bought was a Mosin Nagant. Nothing beats good old 7.62x54R!
As for the Metro, yeah, I've been OCing on their buses regularly for months now, and I've never had a single problem. The drivers didn't even bat an eye at the guy clambering up the steps with a pistol on his hip and a huge box that said "STAG ARMS" on the side. I would almost venture to say the Metro is completely safe for OC, provided one dresses neatly and acts normally.
Anyway, here the requested pics of me with the new AR. I'd say it's quite a bit more intimidating than the standard Imperial issue E-11, a.k.a. the "can't hit the broad side of a bantha at battle zero" blaster. :lol:

Trip... you're a freak.
...and at the same time, you're my kinda geek!
You're right... that M4 does look really good with the suit. Guess the Imperial Army should have splurged for an AR-variant.

If you go to the-tactical-store.com They have good prices on parts and stuff. They are always at the gun show. Also if your military you get a discount.

The rifle fits really well with the costume, actually. I imagine that an AK would fit well with a "sand people" costume, too.
(did i just cross a line there, or did George Lucas cross that line long before me?)

So, what does that make me that I like AK's over AR's, yet think we should finish what we started in Iraq... and at the same time, don't necessarilly like the war?... Boba Fett?

Well, it kind of makes sense, since all the anti-Iraq-War people say we're acting like The Empire and we're fighting against Rebels.

Good stuff! I'm thinking about doing the AR-15 thing myself. I've heard good things about DPMS..might go with them.

Essential Arms sells a very nice stripped receiver for just over $100 delivered. I built mine using an RRA kit on the EA receiver and have been very happy.

Anybody heard of these guys?
http://www.gunsmokeenterprises.net/
Nearly half the way down the page they're selling lowers for $85. It's a 'sale' so I don't know how long that price will last.
I've been hankering to build either an AK-47 or AR-15 before November. Both builds seem relatively easy. The only thing I can't take time to do it build my own receiver/lower (yes, there are tap-n-bolt-your-own AR-15 lowers out there). I know of many, many parts sites out there, but if anyone can recommend anything to this end, it would be much appreciated.
