Re: HATE my rear sight! Options?

Looking at the standard adjustable sights and comparing them to pics of EA's night sights, it looks like EA's might be a bit smoother on the edge. Can anyone confirm this?

Wearing my USG with a Fobus OWB paddle holster, the sights dig in my side. Maybe EA's NS will alleviate that issue?

Re: Customer Service

they sent my original firearm, of which was supposed to be replaced with new.

After having this weapon 18 months, I don't think I'll ever be comfortable with it, knowing it will work when I need it to.

So. like Fuzzy alluded to, a box of scrap metal.

Hopefully it will be squared away soon.

I hate to point out the obvious, but the easiest way to kill with a knife is by cutting a main artery or vein. Like let's say, on the neck. And it would be a slicing maneuver rather than a stabbing.

Man, those looked really tasty. I don't think they grow down here. When I got back from St Thomas USVI, I got some of the last of the fresh Stone Crabs (season closed May 15th).

I have a key type the goes around the trigger, where you screw down the key and then remove the key. Can it be defeated in the same manner?

Use the SS197 for plinking.

And hold onto the SS192s.

Re: new barrel vs cut down

Or, you can have the kit shipped to your local FFL and not take ownership until stamp is approved.

If it were me, that's how I would do it. All legal and no worries.

Of course, only a fool would attempt for a stamp if there was any thought of it not being approved. (again, my opinion)
