so i'll be picking up my 995 next weekend at teh VA gun show, should compliment my M&P 40 nicely until i can afford my AR. Anyways, I've been researching all the goodies and accessories and wanted to get some advice on them:

1. ATI stock, butt pad, DUH!
2. laser - get the one in the stock or a waver based one?
3. red dot - 42mm should suffice, either that or a nice reflex
4. bottom rails (foregrip)- beretta or bushman? which is more forward/longer/etc
5. bushman trigger, charging handle, top rail - paint with what? bare metal is not very tactical looking, powder coat or airspray?
6. beretta extended lenght side rails (tac light/laser/whatever else i find)
7. barrel shroud - SOCOM from MFI, looks cool, about it

there's teh list, any pointers? i've already scratched the promag mags, seems a lot of you guys here are having too many issues to make 5 more rounds worth it.

I would suggest putting a bunch of rounds through it stock before doing a bunch of modding. Then just make sure to put up pictures after your project is done.

 

[Guest]

pictures go without saying , gotta say though, wish there was something i could mod on my M&P, but it came perfect from teh factory

 

[Guest]

hmm, looking at a few more pictures, i might have to go with a rail mounted laser if I go with a barrel shroud, laser might be blocked otherwise

Thats called love hate right there, you love it but hate theres nothing to do but enjoy it. i have a few firearms that fit the same bill.

 

[Guest]

yes it is, lol, anyway, does anyone here have the MFI shroud and a internal laser or is my assumption correct that teh shroud blocks the laser beam

How well does the 995 shoot? I was thinking about getting one but Im waiting on the 4595.

 

[Guest]

well, 9mm are cheap plinker rounds that can also stop a BG of needed, 45 is overpriced and overkill in my book, on top of that the 9mm is already available, who knows when the 45 is coming for 150-200 you cant really beat the 995

Great shooter. Quite accurate and very reliable. Last time I took it to the range I (litteraly) had people lining up to give it a try. Well worth the $200.

cheers,

Why does the ATI deserve a "DUH?" I've never even considered it.

Honestly, it sounds to me like your plan is to throw anything and everything you can find onto this rifle. It really doesn't sound tasteful at all. I have a funny feeling this thing is gonna look like a science experiment after just a few days.

Not sure the ATI is a DUH, but I have one and i truly believe it makes for a better shooting weapon. Much more solid and with the ATI butt pad and the rubber buffer behind the receiver there is a lot less recoil and faster target recovery.

If you decide on a barrel shroud the internal laser won't work. I wouls consider the Bushman bottom rail for the laser. You will need to move the front sling mount if you use one.

You can wait for the 45 cal, but who knows how long that will be. Get the 995 now you won't be sorry. I just went out at lunch and sent 30 rounds down range. it's a blast!

 

[Guest]

thanks for the confirmation on the laser, i'll be getting a rail mounted one for sure now, all the rails will be equipped

top: reflex/red dot
bottom: flip down foregrip
left: laser
right : Insight M3 tactical light

yea, so i like my toys you should see the grocery list for the AR i'm going to build, lol

 

[RDFabsRep]

Honestly just sounds like you're just watching too many movies.

Sometimes LESS is more. People compliment me on my show car all the time because they like how tasteful the build is.

 

[Guest]

hehe, once i get started I'll post pics, its gonna look good, i played with photochop and it turned out decent, just gotta wait till the show on the 24-25th to get here

I put a scope and muzzlebreak on mine. Stock the rest of the way. I love the look as well as the performance. 8)
