    Ordered some grips for my Norinco 213. These are a copy of the tokaregypt grips. It will also cover the crap safety if I chose to remove it or it has the spot relieved if I want to cut it and keep the safety.
    Let me know when you come to town next time! I gotta check these grips out

    I gotta work on that, lol. My Ruger PC Charger looks pretty spacey. I'll try to get a picture of that tomorrow. Your space gun looks really cool. Nice.
    Have you done anything to change the weight distribution on the Ruger PC Charger? Main reason I passed up G-rats Ruger. Just not balanced right for me. Weight was way too far forward. But I've been spoiled by Sub2000's having the 30 round mag more rearward in the pistol grip too. That really helps. Same weight/balance concept as putting the 30 round mag so far rearward on a bullpup. It helps. I'm waiting for the aftermarket to produce a pencil barrel or carbon fiber barrel for that Ruger.

    I haven't done anything to change the weight distribution other than to add a brace. It is a heavy gun. I'll post a picture of it shortly. I've gone through two Sub 2000's, a Gen 1 and a Gen 2. I really tried to like it, but I just don't like the cheek weld and the recoil of it. The PC Charger suits me much better.

    Here's my little space gun. Ruger PC Charger. It's not as cool as Rebel's, but it's working out well for me. It has an Ultradot red dot on it, with Burris tactical rings, a SB Tactical 1913/1911(can't remember which) folding brace. The plastic tubing totally eliminates the jolt against my cheek when firing the weapon. I love the gun, and one day if necessary I plan to SBR it. The flash suppressor is the one sold by Ruger on shopruger.com

    Recoil pad over a brace... I was told by several reputable individuals that ANY modification to a brace (including adding stuff) is illegal. Look into that. Be careful. I specifically asked them about adding stuff, not taking away... braces are entrapment. Play the game by the rules, it's a fine line... and the powers that be like it that way. It's entrapment. I will not add anything just because of this. Also, the overall LOP can't be over a certain length, brace or not, or else it becomes an unregistered SBR solely based on the LOP. Look up the legal length allowed on AR pistols and how to measure it right

    Fixed it. I have two registered SBR's now that I can use the recoil pad on so constructive intent should not be a problem. Gotta stay legal. I do plan to SBR this little jewel, might just go ahead and do it.

    I've got a herniated disc and pinched nerve, so can't do much shooting. However, I did take my daughter to the range to ring some steel and love vicariously through her. I did put a mag through my new p320x full though. It's definitely more accurate than I am right now.

    It's the thought that counts. You want to get your blood pressure up with some quality trigger time and build some hand/eye coordination with a trigger finger and sights... with ZERO recoil... go to Oops Alley in Pace and blow up some Terminators on "Terminator Salvation". Moving targets and triggers, zero recoil, only a dollar for hundreds of rounds. Oops Alley has other training simulators too. This is why the US military is invested in things like Call Of Duty and other platforms. Gamers are proven to have much higher hand/eye coordination with sights and triggers. All manner of different gun controllers out there. I went to a large three story arcade at the Laconia biker rally once and they even had a Duck Hunt console... that used revolver controllers

    It's not so much the recoil as it is the movements themselves. If it were recoil issues, I'd simply shoot the wife's p322

    Dr. Evan Lewis may be able to change your life like he did mine and the 3 guys I sent to him. He's at baptist. I wish you luck. Back pain like that is something that is impossible to explain if have not had it

    Thanks. It's a work comp issue, and they are doing the typical send me everywhere other than where I need to go. Think they're trying to get me in with Dr Chandler at Baptist, only a couple of Ortho spinal specialists in the area. It's definitely been a miserable couple of months, took them 4 weeks to get me the MRI and that was only after my doctor threatened to do all kinds of tests and procedures he didn't need their authorization for that would cost them a lot more.

    Shot the .22 Match
    took the Jewell trigger out of the .308...slipped in a Rifle Basix...the Jewell is going in the 6mm Dasher when it is ready
    took the Rifle Basix out of the .260 Stiller and put in a straight bow TriggerTech Diamond...got it set at 1# 13oz
    Put the extra Rifle Basix up. Didn't get to the TriggerTech Primary with a straight bow for my .260 Hunter.
    Trimmed all 250 .45-70 cases I sized and got half of them deburred...found about a dozen or so short Hornadys in it and got them out...

    Hands hurt...fat kid is going to get some grub on...then call it a day

    I ran my .260 for the first time in about 2 years
    temp here is 91* with a real feel of 98*
    12:00 wind at 6mph+
    primers are a little flat
    too hot for W760

    051522.jpg

    as usual it takes 2 rounds to get there and as usual I let one get away from me. I did confirm zero after trigger swap...I knew it was .5MOA high but the head wind may have affected it a little. Diamond is 1 MOA @ 100
