Oh I know I'd like a BCM. It's really just... do I wanna settle for a pre-made BCM package, that I know is gonna run like a damn truck... Or do I wanna go with a custom upper with exactly what I want, but not knowing if it's gonna have the same reliability.

2020-05-01 00:25:31 UTC  

There are other options and in betweens there

2020-05-01 00:26:13 UTC  

Well, I think I could piece together a good build. My buddy does small arms repair as his job. So I know he'd help me get everything set right.

2020-05-01 00:27:06 UTC  

3/4 of my uppers were custom. Which have been good I guess.

2020-05-01 00:27:15 UTC  

I just wanna do a Recce build now.

2020-05-01 00:27:47 UTC  

A recce gun, or *the* recce rifle

2020-05-01 00:28:42 UTC  

Well, there is no specific Recce pattern. Though BCM is known for theirs, I like it, I just want a slightly different barrel I guess.

2020-05-01 00:28:56 UTC  

And BCM is expensive... but we know it's good quality.

2020-05-01 00:29:37 UTC  

Oh no, there is a very, very exact original recce rifle

2020-05-01 00:29:44 UTC  

The Seal one?

2020-05-01 00:29:50 UTC  

Yes

2020-05-01 00:30:24 UTC  

Well, I suppose I should take a little lookey then.

2020-05-01 00:30:43 UTC  

There’s some good threads on arfcom about it

2020-05-01 00:33:23 UTC  

Have a question...looking at upgrading my optic to an Eotech. Are the EXPS3s really all that better/different from the EXPS2s?

2020-05-01 00:33:28 UTC  

I've found sites that say it generally has specs in between 14.5 and 18 inch barrels, and either a lightweight or Gov profile.

2020-05-01 00:34:21 UTC  

The 3 has compatibility with Night Vision, buttons on the side and quick disconnect.

2020-05-01 00:35:33 UTC  

I personally... would say it's worth it. But if those don't sound important to you, the 2 should cut it.

2020-05-01 00:44:54 UTC  

Alright boys

2020-05-01 00:44:56 UTC  

So

2020-05-01 00:45:19 UTC  

Spoke to the wifey, she’s good with getting a gun, only asked because were renting an apartment right now.

2020-05-01 00:45:26 UTC  
2020-05-01 00:45:37 UTC  

And while we were talking I was going to only drop $250ish because I didn’t want to go overboard

2020-05-01 00:46:06 UTC  

You're not going to get anything remotely reliable for 250... You may wanna save a bit more.

2020-05-01 00:46:06 UTC  

So I was like “so what would your budget be like?” And this psycho goes “I’d be cool with $400-500 if you want it”

2020-05-01 00:46:15 UTC  

So not I gotta rethink shit

2020-05-01 00:46:36 UTC  

Well my father owns a gun range and I could’ve gotten a Canik TP9 for 146

2020-05-01 00:46:52 UTC  

Ooo, I love the Canik TP9

2020-05-01 00:47:03 UTC  

Exactly

2020-05-01 00:47:13 UTC  

Because of his discounts and shit I can get hella cheap

2020-05-01 00:47:18 UTC  

Paying basically wholesale or less

2020-05-01 00:47:26 UTC  

Yeah, that's a ridiculously cheap price.

2020-05-01 00:48:05 UTC  

My spare G19 I payed $250 for 🤷🏻‍♂️ that’s what I’d get at that price

2020-05-01 00:48:09 UTC  

But a pistol will cute it for defense maybe... but think about it, will that fit your needs?

2020-05-01 00:48:20 UTC  

That's also a really good price...

2020-05-01 00:48:29 UTC  

Where are you guys getting these cheap ass pistols? Lmao

2020-05-01 00:48:54 UTC  

Gotta have goon friends man. I also got an RMR06 for my G17 for 250

2020-05-01 00:49:10 UTC  

Dads store man

2020-05-01 00:49:26 UTC  

I say buy what you can, then save for something nice

2020-05-01 00:49:27 UTC  

But it’s just something to have for now while we’re in the apartment

2020-05-01 00:49:39 UTC  

Yeah, I'd get the TP9 and then save up.

2020-05-01 00:49:44 UTC  

Yeah?
