    Thoughts after 1/2 a day today.

    Nothing new at Gemtech, but AAC had a ton of new stuff, some of it very interesting.

    I very much like the look of the Masada, and the thought that went into the design. The guys we talked to said it is based on the 180, but pretty loosely. It will be a very interesting product for sure.

    The guy we talked to at FN said 2008 for an LE SCAR, and he couldn't speculate as to when we might see a civilian model. He seemed kind of insulted that we would even ask.

    The new AUG looks VERY nice, and the guy we spoke to in the booth was very knowledgeable. If there was ever a gun that I'd buy as a collector piece, an AUG would be it. I guess it's from too much Miami Vice growing up...

    The Cproducts 9mm mag looks awesome. Very good quality, and it makes me wish I owned a 9mm AR just so I could buy some mags.

    Aimpoint's new AA product looks very nice, but I was more interested in their mini model.

    The Tango Down short grip will be very cool, and allegedly 600 will be produced some time in the next month or so. I'll have one, but I may just cut off the grip(s) I have as thats all TD is doing. It costs $3 more for them to sell you a short one.

    I will get a couple of pairs of Woolrich lightweight pants. They also incorporated the extra belt loop at the seam that the 10-8 folks said I was stupid for asking for. Go figure.

    The "high speed" internet connection in my hotel room isn't very, so I'll have to upload pics when I get back.

    After seeing the dog & pony show on the mag-pul masada at the show, I won't be happy again until I own one.

    I was disappointed not to find Robinson at the show. When I got home tonight I checked their website only to find that they have a rifle on display in the Falcon Industries booth. What really kills me is that I was at that booth today and bought Ergo 1911 grips and never saw the rifle. Oh well.... after seeing the masada, I have dropped the idea of the XCR.
    Courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the judgement that something else is more important than fear.

    UBR

    Sounds great. I was thinking of putting one on an SPR set up. Did they have a sample of the triangular box that goes in the UBR ?

    keep a holster from sliding?

    or just one extra with the others redistributed to hold belts better maybe?

    Yep. That was one of my complaints with the original pants I have was that there was just too much unsupported seam along that edge. "They" made the argument that it was left unobstructed for holster placement, but what does a 1/2" belt loop really affect holster placement? And at what cost?

    I guess the "high speed" is more so first thing in the morning when you aren't trying to share.
