There
are a number of projects that are on the table which, as I stated before, I
hope to complete over the next couple of months. Knowing that I will finally be
able to get some work done at my bench it is time to pull together the project
list. While by no means complete, this at least gives me a starting point and a
way to track my progress on these initial projects. Hopefully this will also
keep me from getting distracted by the other parts and pieces that are tucked
away in my work space.
The
first set of items that need to be taken care of are the AR15 builds. While
there are a few personal projects that I would like to complete and others
which I hope to modify, there are rifles that are still in pieces and that,
once assembled, I hope to sell to one of the local gun shops… a few extra
dollars in the bank account would be nice. However, there are a number of
trigger installations and optics that need to be mounted that I have been
putting off as well as a few pistol builds that keep getting pushed to the side
so I hope to finally get those done. This will clearly be the bulk of the work
and also clear the most space on my bench.
The
next project is to swap out a number of the parts on my Smith & Wesson
M&P9 Pro CORE. Already a fine firearm out of the box, there are a few easy
modifications that can be done to customize the pistol. Those adjustments
include an extended magazine release, replacing the magazine base plates, and
installing a red dot. Nothing outrageous, just some solid upgrades. Of course,
I may just start with my Glock 17 which is in need of an upgraded magazine
release, slide stop, and replacement base plates. So, I guess you could really
combine these two to almost being a single project on the list.
The
third thing on the list is to secure a few of the safes that need to be
installed around the house, testing, and adding bit of concealment. Everything
else comes down to maintenance, organization, and culling through the inventory
to see if there are any items that just aren’t getting used and would be better
served if I were to sell them and let someone else enjoy the craftsmanship.
Hopefully by the end of the summer I will have a better handle on the work space
and everything moving forward will consist primarily of maintaining and
enjoying what I have in my safe. At least that is the goal.
