Thanks, that's reassuring to know.

Here is my build. It's mixture of parts from BCM, LaRue, Daniel Defense, Colt, S&W, DPMS, YHM, Vltor, LMT and MagPul.

Also, my Glock 19, which I stippled myself. It wears Warren Tactical Sights and a Pierce grip plug, but is otherwise stock.

Glock 27

Just traded my XD45 in for a Glock 27. I was looking for something more concealable. This sure took care of it. Just got back from the range and shot 300 rds of fail drill from concealed holster with reload drills incorporated. Feels great in the hands and my groups where decent for 20 ft.

Is it worth a lot as a collectors item?

You probably will give me a bad time but this is what I did with an FN action:

I bougtht the action in 1980 for $125. It currently exists as a 240 Wby with a 30 inch barrel.

This is my newest gun.

A Remington XP 100R in 260 Rem. The magazine well has fallen off the table and is not in the picture. I have since put a scope on it and have loaded up some ammo but cannot get to the range to actually fire it. Ii really wish it would quit snowing.

If it is accurate, I will take it to Wyoming and shoot an antelope beyond 500 yards. If it is not accurate I will have it trued and re-barreled and then shoot some antelope.

Any antique or collectible once modified looses value. In the case of a firearm, the amount of mods determine the percentage of devaluation.

In Penns case the hand guard and metalwork has been removed. The stock ( a shame as it looks like it was once a very nice piece of "tigerstripe" walnut) has been cut and shortened, the pistolgrip has been cut, sanded and a pistol grip cap installed, same for the buttstock with the addition of a recoil pad.

I cant see the front sight, so couldnt say if the barrel has been shortened or modified.

A few saving graces. The bolt or rear sights have not been "bubbazied". Depending on the information on the receiver ring, what you have is an appx. $150.00 sporter. Costs also depend on just how much the serial numbers of the bolt, magazine and barrel match the receiver. This coupled with the year of manufacture (very early and very late being the most desireable) could determine final value.

Just had some work done on my M&P 45, the heavish 7lbs is now down to a more workable 4.5, but the improved reset is what makes it alot more controllable now.

What kind of terminal ballistics are you expecting at 500 (+) yds from a .260 (120/140 gr.?) fired from what appears to be the 14.5" barrel?

For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear.
