Newest pickup TAR-15, nothing special

I really like the color combo too. Looks like a carbine length gas system. Not sure if you know or not, but if it kicks too much for your taste you can add a heavier buffer or spring to the extension to slow down the action a bit.

Looking to buy my first gun. What are your thoughts on the Springfield XD .40?

Went to the range with a friend and shot his 40 45 and ar15 and I was uninterested up until recently.

I have a Gen4 Glock 19 stock, want to put some mods on it, green laser sight/flashlight, and extended Mag. Money has been funny lately so haven't got around to it. Next gun will be a shot gun or maybe a AR.

Here's a tutorial for a cheap glock trigger job
The $0.25 Glock trigger job

I polished all the surfaces that touch each other on my Springfield with 1500 grit sandpaper and it's butter smooth now.

I just got a M&P Shield and I don't like the trigger. The Apex trigger mod cost a $150. I'm trying to find a cheaper solution

Get a good polishing compound and a variety pack of very fine sanding paper. Do a full strip and polish everything that touches each other, whether it's metal or plastic. I'm a fan of heavy but smooth triggers and if you're the same way, an all out polish may be enough to satisfy your desire for a trigger kit. Plus if you're not familiar with your weapon it'll be a great introduction to it. Picking up a punch kit with a brass hammer is recommended for disassembly and if you're good with your hands a dremal with cutting wheels and polishers can turn it into a one of a kind weapon tailored to your tastes.

I strip and clean my glock. Watched a few videos on M&P shield disassembly. I'll pick up a dremel and try this out. Thanks

You can do it with just a couple different grits of super fine sandpaper and some polishing compound, but yeah, I have lots of tools and the dremel is my favorite and probably sees the most use. I actually keep it in my tool closet and not the garage where most of my tools are. The dremel I have is the Dremel 3000 kit and runs about $60 on Amazon. It comes with a bunch of useful attachments, such as cutting wheels, grinding stones, polishing tips, and an engraver.
