He wa getting great ballistics and accuracy at distance but was banned or quit hanging out with us. I’m hopefully getting some bonus money next month and will build out my Sig 365 to make it a full time pdw. Not sure if I should get a fuse (like $700) or my buddys macro ($600). Fuse would come with 21 round mags but the macro has the nice magwell, would put that lower on my X for cold weather carry. |
