Nitpicking, but that's only on the Trooper. The CCU has the regular version of the rail with QD sockets and steel nuts for the mounting screws.

I'll be looking for barrels. Last year I got my 14" BA Hanson barrel for my .308. This year I'll be looking for a 6" to 8" 9mm, and a 10.5" 5.56 barrel. Maybe some Jeep parts if I can swing it.
Ammo dude, bring ammo..
That's the point I hit a while back, and even though I could replace everything lost in a boating accident for a roughly 80% savings and maybe 5% performance improvement, considering that most of my favorite stuff is over a decade old, and still works brilliantly, that's just where I'm at.
If I find the right deal on a mid-size MOLLE pack with internal padded compartments, I'll pick one up for FPV Racing, or find a solid deal on gauntlet gloves with knuckle protection, I could use some more for MTB applications... but that's been all I get excited about seeing on most of these.
IF Geissele runs a massive sale, I'll snag a few triggers and an H2/Flatwire combo. If not, meh.
I need to buy about $700 worth of ammo. That's my priority at the moment. I also need a new weaponlight (I'm trying to decide between a Streamlight TLR-1HL and the TLR-7), and a bunch of assorted AR parts - BCGs, bolt components, receiver extensions etc etc...
Along the way I may snag various targets of opportunity as funds permit.
Hopefully LMT has a sale, other than that ammo.
With the fast form 4 times now my Thunder Chicken may get out soon so my Black Friday plan is to grab an EZTube, drop buffet weight and replace the forward assist with a gas vent.
Looking for a good deal on a 10 pack of Lancer Mags. Of course the clear translucent or the smoked are primarily for round count, but besides the fact, is there measurable durability or strength compared to solid black? Every where I have looked, there is about a $5 dollar difference between the translucent and solid colors. Trying to see if I can justify the extra $$ on the translucent. Also debating whether I should try to pick some up now or wait until Black Friday. I have a feeling that they'll be out of stock across every store in a matter of a few hours.
