Howdy crew. I’m still alive. Side note, anyone remember a year or two ago when I was able to rescue a pack dillo on eBay. I posted it here but it was still a little secret so I took it down. But then I forwarded it to a new deserving member. Just trying to remember the number or who the new guy at the time was. Random thought I had… |

#316 is alive and well. Saw this thread a few weeks ago but had been so long since I logged in in took a couple weeks to get the admins to make it happen. Need to post a picture of some of the stuff from back in the day. Have the Larue scales, AR15.com survival kit, the aluminum hitch receiver logo and a AR lower receiver still in the wrap.... probably some other stuff I don't even remember. |

SMOS is in Oregon and produced lowers for Larue until Mark started producing his own. The ARFCOM lowers were made out of Farmington, NY (at least the ones I have), then by Armament Rifle when the Avilia's moved to Texas. |

It was less so as a monthly fundraiser. |

Most of this came from a dedicated group of under 100 individuals.

#314 here. This thread is jogging my memory about something I thought of a few weeks ago. i found a mailing tube that had one of the M-4 charts in it, all crisp and rolled up. I originally planned to frame it, and probably will soon. No rush.
