AR help near Mooreville??

Post by kowen1971 on Sat Dec 31, 2011 2:42 pm

I have just got my first AR. I'm wanting to change out the plate on the back of the receiver and replace it with a single point sling adapter plate I bought. Problem is, I DON'T KNOW HOW. If anyone close could help I would be greatful. It seems I need a wrench of some sort but I dont want to scratch my rifle. If someone is able to help I'll drive to where you are.. Thanks...

I'll change it out for you if it's not to far of a drive. I'll PM address.

Warning about single points:
They get in the way and flop around a lot, and by flop around I mean flop into your crotch or into your heels. It's nice if it's just for added security, and I do like mine but I wish I'd gone with a 2 point....I'll change it out one day when I have the spare funds.....good slings are far from cheap

Then you need to consider the Magpul single point sling. It goes both way's with a snap, plus doing the backpack. Mine are $54.99 and in stock.

Great meeting you and your son today, hope you had a good time to make up for the drive.

Will order your stuff Monday or Tuesday. That way one trip will take care of everything for you.

Glad you made the trip, thank you.

Dhollis no website, just a country boy playing with cool toys and having fun. In the shop you'll find ccw handguns and revolvers, hd shotguns, tactical rifles, and all the cool stuff that goes with them.

Wish you were closer so I could get some of your money....lol

I drove about an hour one way and it was well worth the trip! I'll be checking out coming the backroads next time but I'll be back either way. Listening to BeauBeaux talk, I realize he's probably forgot more than I'll ever know about guns but hey, that why you want a good gunsmith right? Great products, great service, great prices. What more could you ask for? Oh yeah, and you want someone that takes the time to explain things so someone like me can understand. He did that too. Hooked me up on my AR today and I'm looking forward to going back to pick up my other rifle and accessories I ordered.

Appreciate the kind words Kowen1971.

Those barrel's in use on the pistol range are from JBPMidas. He brought them on one of his trips. Thanks again for those and your vote of confidence in the posts.

Work continues to make the place better and more fun plus adding more items in the shop. Got to get the lights put in the display case and expand the shelf space. It's a small shop so have to use the space available to best advantage.

Any NE MS members that want to be on the sales email list just drop me a PM or email with your addy and I'll add you.

Again, many thanks for the kind words.
