Seriously...
Height adjustment and damping settings for like a couple hundred more, if that.
Idk what other coils cost but my Teins were $890.
ISC, HT Spec, ect. may be cheaper.

What do you mean? Coilovers are the shock + spring and the other nessesary parts. (Except Tein, you need your own tophats/other parts.)

well in that case ISC N1's are the best bang for the buck...
but here is a little more info:
if you are only looking to drop the car, get springs and call it a day
if you are looking for ONLY height adjust-ability, get Tein Basics ($700-ish) but you will have to reuse your stock top hats
if you are looking for height and dampening adjust-ability, get ISN N1's ($850) and it can also adjust preload and it comes with top hats preinstalled
Hope that helps...

Ha. Dillos done gone bye bye anywho...
I'm pretty stocked up especially on the .223 stuff..borderline excessive. I would like an additional Ruger 10/22 though. Fun little guns I dont think I could own too many of them!!! Wouldn't mind a 22cal 1911 another fun gun.

Haha they're sweet. I love the M4 platform and to have it in a .22 means I can shoot it all day long for dirt cheap. 
11-08-2012, 12:31 PM

You can get adapters for the AR platform to shoot center fire 22. Bass pro sells them. Sportsmans guide does as well.

The .22 would just be cool to plink with.

A 22 is so much quieter than other "real" firearms. When you shoot at cans, bottles, or other metallic targets they make a distinctive "plinking" sound. So, here in the trailer park, we refer to target practice as "plinking".

Yeah, the .22 sounds slightly louder than a firecracker.
You can get a box of 500 rounds for like $15 too.

Colt 1911.. indeed.
but why M24 over M82/M107 or 408 Cheytac?
Also why M468? are you just a fanboi of milspec?..
TexASS. My buddy has just over 100 guns in his "collection". I went to grab a wrench out of his toolbox, I was a bit surprised to see that he had miscellaneous handgun pieces scattered in the drawer along with the sockets. Like tools, you can never have too many.
That's a lot of fun. Definitely a must shoot for first timers.. you haven't shot until you've spit gun powder out your mouth.

I hate the AR platform. It takes too much money to make it reliable/accurate. I'm a collector of and a fan of the Ruger Mini 14. Far more accurate out of the box than a AR, shoots either 223 or 5.56, are very reasonably priced and will fire every time without jamming (unless you use those cheap ass Chinese 40rd mags.)
My favorite in my collection is my Mini 14 tactical. Has all the needed rails for accessories, shorter barrel, adjustable folding stock, flash suppressor, and good looks to boot. All for under $700. Ruger hit it put of the park with that one.

Stopping power is hype.
Like horsepower...tourque is what wins races. Horsepower sells cars.
Aim, consiststancy, reliability, and accuracy are far more important than caliber.
Bullets of all sizes have been killing game and people for hundreds of years.
