    What have you done to your AR(s) today?

    Thought I would start a thread for those that want to share what they did with their AR today. Sometimes you do just a little that your proud of but it's not enough of a big deal to start a new thread to talk about. Post it here! Replace parts, buy new parts, clean or modify existing parts let's here about it.

    I'll start off with a couple of new goodies I ordered for the new BCM 16" I finished yesterday.

    Picked up a EO Tech ESPS3-0 for $372 shipped and a G33 STS for $454 shipped, they should fit well on top of the BCM. Also ordered a BCM KAG Grip, it looks light and it was cheap so I thought I would try it out.

    Post pics if like.

    Where'd you get the EOTech for that price?

    I found it on Ebay, the G33 is new and the seller has sold 133 of them. The 3-0 was an open box return.

    Having never painted an AR, do you strip all the old paint every time? You can't just paint over it?

    No stripping for me. Just paint over it and go. Been doing it since the 80s.

    Sorted AR mags. I keep them in FAT 50 ammo cans 28 mags per can, 28 rounds per mag. I have four FAT 50's and some random mags - including some five and 20 rounders. I use one can until all the mags are empty, then start on another. When two are empty I take the mags from the bucket, sort them and check them over.

    Raining, so did not go to shoot my AR. If I don't have to go out, I don't go out. Nice to have that choice.

    Otherwise, I'm in the process of media blasting a Browning slide from a surplus Hi-Power I bought to play with and sometimes carry when I shot one of my AR's. I just removed the Heinie Straight 8's from the side. The LOL is that I sent the slide to Don Williams at The ACtion Works to have him cut the dovetails and install them. Now I've taken them off before the slide was even back on the gun.

    I completely and heartily recommend Mr. Williams and his work. Pleasant man to deal with, quick turnaround, honest to a fault, and great work. The Action Works http://www.theactionworks.com/

    Sounds sus. Check it for authenticity. I went to Windham Weaponry range and dialed in my pistol's red dot. They did not have the parts I needed in stock, so I ordered them online. LPK and barrel parts for a 11.5" carbine retro clone.
