  1. The Glock knives are decent...definitely needs sharpening from the factory, and yes, they are balanced for throwing. ^_^

     

    I haven't used it much, myself. I've heard it isn't all that great at holding an edge, but, we'll see. For a $30.00 knife (actually paid $13, woot), I'm not expecting it to jump through hoops. It definetally had a nice feel to it, though. It's nice and light, too, which is good and bad.

     

    Oh, and ya' gotta' love the built-in bottle opener, which I've tested. It works quite well.

    Am I doing it right? :P

     

    The mag pull is the only Magpul accessory on there at the moment. Some would thing that the ladder rail covers are Magpul, but they're actually Ergo.

     

    I have a MBUS available if I want to ditch the optic. Also, I've been thinking about swapping out the pistol grip for a MIAD, as I've had one lying around for about 6 months.

  3. The mag well thing is my calling card. Without it, the rifle is just not mine! :P

     

    And as a note, no, I don't actually need a mag well expander...like I said, it's just my calling card...that, and I kinda' like the way it looks, believe it or not...

     

    The first optic is a Rakurs-P, a 1x tritium powered optic that uses an interesting combination as a reticule, both German posts, and a chevron.

     

    The second optic is a 2.5-5x24 weaver mounted POSP.

     

    I've gone back to using the Rakurs-P, as I like it quite a bit. I removed the MBUS, so the optic now sits on the upper receiver, taking up all the real estate. Works better now than with it 1/2 mounted on the MRE.

     

    Looks different...

     

    And that right there is key...they're a bit different than the average T-1 or ShortDot.

  4. Got 'em from Ergo like that. They discontinued the 2-slot rail covers, so they tossed in a baggie of them when I made an order.

     

    They're actually really convenient, especially with rail systems like the MRE, as they have exposed bolt heads in some of the slots.

    Something a little bit different, I guess.

     

    Plan on modifying it a bit more. Might add a MIAD that's been sitting around for awhile.

     

    And I'm pretty sure I have a King Arms M3 tac light lying around here somewhere...gotta' find it.

  6. Anyways, does anyone use the Falcon Industries "Light Switch Rail Cover" carried by Magpul? fiddlesticks, I believe you have one attach at your 12oclock rail. Can you provide with dimension and your opinion if they do a good or should I stick with velcro?

     

    I have one.

     

    It is 3.75" long, 1.5" wide.

     

    I like it quite a bit. ^_^

     

    Picture of it in use is in the R/S thread.

  7. Found this while looking for pictures:

    According to people that have done it, they will retain their color as long as you keep your contact with the material as brief as possible to get the desired effect. Leave the soldering iron on for too long, and they will blacken.

     

    Ok, so, that solves that. Back to more rifle pictures! :D

  8. Yup. Titleist got some of his black KAC panels stipples recently. Originally he wanted to get his Taupe/Tan/FDE KAC panels done, but the guy told him not to bother as they'd dramatically change color to almost black or at least a charred dark brown. Same as what you're seeing on Haley's XTM panels.

     

    That's what I had thought, until I saw pictures like these:
