If the black roof is a no cost option, then absolutely. That color combo is nice. If they want $$, then consider a wrap for the roof...may be more cost effective, with more options (ie. matte or CF?) |

Amazing place to visit, yes. You can drive from Dana Point to Oxnard on PCH and see the best of SoCal. |

I was there back in time to see the handwork of engraving shotguns by hand and custom made for hunters with money . I was interested in the sculptures , because I had some experience of it in wood . So I was facinated to learn it on the metal parts of the shotguns . The problem was that the people learn it in FN at the age 15 and stay up to 65 and retire , in other words their people are there till retired , and so it was not possible for me to start there , it's also a family factory and you need a family member to get started in the FN factory . But now for the last 10 years times are changed and lots of people are replaced by machinery and robots . FN => https://www.google.be/search?hl=nl&s...0.A7pni-vjBnw# And the world famous old FN factory ..

It's surprising to hear they still have apprenticeships there, but the institution is so iconic, that maybe it shouldn't be that surprising. Thanks for the information.

I've been crossed off Sara's list
Seriously though, I'm in the process of quitting. Haven't had a dip in nearly three weeks! I know it's a gross habit and I know three weeks sounds lame. But bear with me, it's been a struggle. Lol got me on that one.

My sister smokes and every time she does it around me, we get into a heated argument about it. I cant handle any type of drugs, cigarettes, vaping, hooka, I'll flip out. I'm very very clean, drug wise. Ive never smoked a cigarette in my life (alcohol a different story) I was pregnant and at a movie and some guy was vaping. I had him removed. |

I agree tobacco is a bad habit. By the next time i'm in Louisiana i'll have quit FWIW cigarettes are far, far more addictive than smokeless. I was never a smoker but for folks who are like your sister, smoking isn't a little thing to give up. It sounds absurd to someone who isn't addicted but it's the truth.

I shot the FN SCAR-17 with an ACOG sight at a range once... I felt like God with that gun!

We have 8 products total. I use to be Heckler & Koch fan, but their direction went down the drain about 15 years ago. I thinK NEFARIOUS had a picture taken with 17s and posted here, but deleted. |

I didn't knew , but the FAL was also one of the favorites of the US-Army , but after financial speculation it was the US-M14 . Here more about the story => https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/FN_FAL

-Other companies were scared to even partially export to US due to 922R compliance. FN is one of the first to do it w/ meeting the compliance. -FN offers all the stuff we like P90/PS90, Scar series, FNX Tac, F2000/FS2000, even semi version of M249Saw soon. -Very very light weight. I carried FS2000 at work due to lightweightness, then changed it to SCAR16 my final years. (again due to weight. even 1/2lbs will feel like 20lbs after long hours of work) NOTE: please do not ask where i worked. I am still physically recovering from a job I quit yrs ago. |

I don't recall removing it, some mod must've removed it. Anyway, I haven't shot any older HKs, but the only gun I've owned was a USP .45, but even then I rarely took it to the range; most of the time it sat in my nightstand since it was more so for self defense since the peóns decided to raid the upper middle class neighborhoods, and I wasn't going to let some guy with a crack fix steal anything from me, and I still regard it as a good gun.
