What is tacti-cool accessories?

I was thinking about an ambi magazine release and safety button as I am left handed.

Also thinking about getting an AK and an M1..Or..Car modifications..

I don't own one, but probably will at some point. It's a very solid gun, especially for the price. I really love my HK P2000SK, but it will cost you quite a bit more.

Sadly enough I've seen AR's for sale at gun shows that looked almost that bad.

The only thing cheesy I would do if I had a tri-rail assault rifle is attach 1 laser on each rail and go for the Predator look

Advantage Arms 22 Conversion

Anyone ever use one of these? This kit made for converting your Glock to 22 caliber. Great for training or anyone that likes to plink. Although they are not suitable for PD, it makes the Glock very light (like a toy). Even better, this is considered a part - no FFL paperwork required. It's treated like a replacement barrel or magazine. Converting literally takes less than a minute. Drop the magazine, release the slide, put on the 22 slide, load the 22 magazine and it's ready to go. I think I'm done with this one now. PM for info.

OMFG, I near fell out of my chair when I read this.

But it would actually be kind of cool. Kind of, for a day or two, if no one saw you do it.

I got an early birthday present from a buddy



.22 single action revolver. Fixed sights, but this little guy is accurate as heck! Disregard the terrible trigger discipline (it was just for the picture, it was safety checked, and the safety was on).

This is cool. So, basically you can have a Glock .9mm, 40 or 45cal. and use this to covert to a .22cal for inexpensive target practice?

That's cool.

Not sure they make kits for the 45 or 10mm. There is also barrel length to consider. But fun to shoot!

Holy crap I just looked up what a good 22 conversion kit for a Glock cost. You can buy 2 good 22 pistols for what that one kit cost!

You guys seem to have very clean and nice looking guns. You need to go out and shoot them more.

I didn't find any AA kits like yours but I found several other brands and they all run between $400-$450.
