Title: Just changed the furnature on my coyote rifle
Post by: Dakotaranger on May 28, 2009, 10:53:35 PM
I put a Wilson Combat Tactical charging handle latch on it.  A TAPCO forend grip, MAGPUL Miad grip, and MOE Forearm.  For my other 'coyote rifle I would like to find either royal blue or fire engine red furnature

It works, but if you guys have a better suggestion I'll listen.

I'd use a plastic wire tie. (Honest)  I think it would give a better. sturdier mount.

That might work, but can you take it off w/o cutting the tie?

Thats a nice coyote gun. Can it be used as a zombie rifle?

For zombies I prefer a shotgun, but with rate of fire it would buy time to reload

No, you would need to replace the tie each time.

DPMS makes a great rifle.  I've only run a couple hundred rounds through it, but no FTF or FTE.  Smoothest firing semi-auto (pistols and shotguns included) I've ever fired.

Looking good Dakota.  I need to do some work on mine.  I also need to figure out how to work a digital camera and post pics so I don't get zinged by everyone for not posting porn.

Awesome setup Dakotaranger. I agree with you on DPMS. Absolutely love mine. I parted ways with a Bushmaster but I will never part ways with my DPMS.

Go to wally world or the dollar store and get a small sized elastic hair band.

You could also try Velcro straps. They are generally meant for wire management. You get the ability to tighten it as much as you want but still be able to remove it and reuse it. They can be found at pretty much any store that has to do with computers or office supplies. (Office Depot, Staples, Office Max, etc.) Plus they come in all kinds of colors if that is the sorta thing you're in to. ;)

I don't know Peg, he's obviously dealing with some badass coyotes with that rig. They might even be "tactical coyotes". Wouldn't do to be looking girlie. ;D

Now the hair down to your ass just runs down your spine growing out your back, don't it?   ;D ;D

HORRIBLE mental image!!

I started a couple comments like that last night.  However, with my current state of follicle insufficiencies I don't make fun of anyone with hair ... past, present or future  ;)

I cut it all off because I got tired of trying to get the tangle out after long rides.
I was never follically challenged before....... and then, teenagers in high school helped thin it a little.   ;)

Now there's less of it and it is considerably grayer.    ;D

I just couldn't resist the chance to tease you some. ;D

I personally can't stand hair touching my ears. I have to keep it short. My Dad's father would always say, "Get your ears lowed, did ya?" after every haircut I got. My Mom's father didn't even know my name. He just called me his blue-eyed, blond-haired grandson. He would also make sure my hair was to the proper length.

Blast I sure miss both of them.  :'(

That's my story and I'm sticking too it.  The term came from the first time my mom saw it and she sort of freaked out because she had no experience with a semi-auto rifle and believed some of the media hype.  Since .223 is about only good for coyotes that's what I told her I got it for...it seamed to work.

Same when I bought my Mini-14. My dad wasn't really a 'gun person'. He had nothing against them, just didn't care to shoot them much. He asked what the hell I needed it for and I told him coyotes and armadillos and other varmints. He thought about it a minute and said OK.

Same here, nowadays.
If it gets longer than 3/4" on the sides I get out the clippers.....in fact, I'm re-charging them for a cuttin' tonight.    ;D

Hair cut every two weeks. All year long. Otherwise I would feel like a hippy. But it is more respectable than my old mohawk.  8)

Glad to find out I'm not the only one that cuts their own hair. I love my barber and all but I just can't get over there as often as I need to. Started cutting my hair last year.... I assume I do OK. If it wasn't done well, I have friends who have no qualms about telling me it's bad. Plus the wife has to approve of it before I can call it done.

Now that I am thinking about it, going to have to do a trim up tonight.


Talk about thread drift... Coyote gun to personal grooming.

Marshal cuts his own too and I go back and trim around the edges for him.

Mark, my ex ..always says " Getting old sucks..The hairs gone on his head and now it sprouting out his ears and nose.." ;D

He used to have long hair too (still has the earring).
 I am one of those women who LOVES long hair on guys.. IF it is kept clean and roomed.
 Love beards too.. but they have to be neat..

Hair on the other body parts?? Definitely trimmed..  ;)

( And you thought no one was setting at this table listening.. but you guys didn't  you........ ;D)
