Gun modding
Wow, I thought car modding was expensive....gun modding is outrageous for AR 15 rifles. There are sights more expensive than the gun itself. I recently took a training course for tactical entries, searches etc with my Colt M4. I am issued the basic M4 no night sights just bare bones M4. I have noticed that when I deploy the weapon at night I can't see a damn thing until I switch to large aperture and even then not much. I am waiting for my department to approve EOTech red dot sights and as soon as they do, I am getting one. I was curious if any other gun enthusiasts on the forum had experience with reflex/red dot sights and had recommendations. Until then I have ordered a new forearm, tactical grip, tactical light, and pressure switch. I will be curious to see how the front grip enhances my firing/acuracy because I have heard mixed stories, of course it depends on the shooter. In the end it will be a great set up for tactical entries and building searches. Kinda hard to enter with a mag light and m4 lol and no I don't actually do that.
The sight I plan on getting in the future, package deal for $485 which is sight and mount

Here are the items I bought, came to about $350,
handguard, 4 rail mounts
Tactical grip
Tactical light
and a few other accessories to make it work
In the end my weapon will be set up like this, but with a different handguard,light, and no scope, ill post pics when i get it all set up. Definately looks badass SWAT style, I think most bad guys will comply when confronted with this set up.
Maybe a gun rack for the Audi? nahhhhhhhhh

RE: Gun modding
My sisters father-in-law has a farm and a stock pile of guns. He has an AR15 with a red dot site on it. I couldn't miss with it. I was in the bullseye with every shot... even from the hip at 20m. I was an expert marksman in the USMC though so I felt very comfortable with the weapon. I like the Surefires for lights. I'd like to mount one on the picanny on my P345, but for now I just have a hand held one that I keep by the bed for emergencies (i.e. earthquakes, power outages... etc...). The tactical mount ones are pricey (for a flashlight), but that **** will blind ya! Especially if you hit someone in the face with it in the dark. I swear it might knock someone off their feet before a bullet does.

Really? Even if I never plan on having a night vision system with it? The only differences I found were that the 552 has greater water depth and NV settings.

I also like 'em because even if the glass is cracked, you can still use them to aim.
I agree with the Surefire lights, but they are a bit pricey unless you get like a G2 or something. [&:]
