I wonder why I am so gullible in buying nearly every mod that come down the pike for these two Mrods and this one Synrod and all the other stuff that goes with them, does any one else go as overboard as I do? It's got to stop somewhere. If I had to sell them for some reason I would my tail and then some.

Only gullible if mods you so eagerly purchased actually did not work or fit
Otherwise see it as enthusiasm in your attempt at making a better rifle.

I feel the same way... It is a quest and that is a big part of the fun of this hobby.
Keep your shooting goals focused on what you want out of your guns, then try the parts and mods that will help get you to your goal. Do some reasonable research (like on forums) before you rush in to try something new and that may save you some wasted time and money.
I'm pretty sure I could have done better buying a higher priced gun up front, but this path yields so much more learning along the way.
