Picked up a new toy today!!!

Take that MBUS off of the gas block ! You don't want to see a melted blob of polymer.
And watch out so you don't burn your fingers with that AFG out there.

mvician, thank you for the heads up on that gas block. I would have never known. I really appreciate it. I have already moved it back some and locked it in place!

It looks almost identical to my S&W... your going to like it alot!

its supposed to rain here tomorrow morning, but I think I'm going to make the shooting trip anyway. I gotta get some rounds down range.

 

[GAM3INO]

Ok, so just got back from the range. Shot about 150 flawless rounds out of my new M&P and it felt REALLY good!! It took me a little while to get my red dot sighted in(still not 100% there with it), but didn't do to bad with it. Here is my first target. I forgot to pick up targets before I left, so I made some from poster board.

I can't wait to take it out again...

Thanks! I'm very happy with how it turned out. Its a great shooter and a ton of fun. I still have a few other things to do to her, but its pretty close to done. Then its on to the next one!

I used your photos to show a buddy who wants a quad rail for his M&P. Good work.

Everything is OD Green. The only thing that is a little off is the quad rail. It's a Midwest Industries quad rail, and their OD Green is a little closer to Magpul's Foliage green. So instead of changing all of my Magpul stuff to Foliage to match the quad rail, I just put black ladder covers on the quad rail, and it really helped.
