Glass? LVPO (low variable power optic). 1-4x 28 or 1-6x28
Magazines. Magpul 30 round. Bunches of them.
Sling. Single point or dual point.
Silencer - because shooting without is just rude

ETA:
You didn’t give us a price range for stuff and I’m really, really good at spend my money but better at spending other people’s money:

Vortex Viper 1-6
For the silencer:
I have one of these: Q Thunderchicken

If you want the best look for a Thunderbeast Dominus:
TBAC Dominus

How does it compare to a Surefire SOCOM?


Anyone ever buy a suppressor using the Corporation option?

Always heard you shouldn’t leave magazines loaded for long periods of time. Recently I’ve heard it doesn’t matter. If I get a bunch of magazines can I just load them while bored one night and leave them for months until I go shooting again?

Yep. I keep mine loaded. I leave my 30 round mags loaded at 28/29 mainly to facilitate loading on a closed bolt if shite were to be actively hitting the fan

I thought about it, but then thought again. The corporation requires formation of a corporation with the state and then ongoing paperwork requirements every year. The juice didn't seem worth the squeeze.

Then, there's the question of the disposition of the NFA item if the corporation gets dissolved for any reason. With the stroke of a bureaucrat's pen, the corporation is gone and you're now in possession of an improperly registered NFA item.

I just stuck with a trust. If prepared properly, it remains in effect after your death, it is simple to add and remove trustees, multiple trustees allows multiple people to legally possess the item, and it has no ongoing documentation or costs associated with it.

If anyone knows someone looking at entry level rifles, Gunbuyer has M&P Sport IIs back in stock for $799. A little steep relative to pre-COVID prices, but hey, they’re in stock.

The TI Socom? I really don’t have much experience with the Socom.

The Socom is smaller so it would not have the sound reduction that the Thunderchicken does, I’d guess.

The Socom is suppose to be completely bulletproof however. And has the price tag to go with that.

I do believe the cherry bomb is the best mounting system out there right now.

no, it looks to be the upper and lower but no BCG and no parts kit to finish the lower.

Also, no charging handle

My business is already incorporated and will likely be passed down to my son. So no worries there.

Man, I don't think there's any way that I'd put an NFA item in the name of my business unless my business was something like a gun shop. There's no positive for the business and nothing but additional exposure. God forbid things go pear shaped and you use the item to defend yourself. The opposing council in the civil suit is going to get a hardon when he learns the business owned that item. For a few hundred bucks, the trust is a done deal. If you're already considering playing in the NFA world, 300 more bucks ain't nothing.

I am not an attorney and I don't even play one on TV, so that's just my opinion. You do you.

ETA: Silencers sure are fun, though. "God, that sucked," said no one ever, after shooting suppressed the first time.
