lop the threaded section off

anybody know the specs on Dean's gun? the exact model and options.

batfe says that it IS AN 80% receiver and can be sold without a FFL since it requires welding to be built. sticks still wont chamber right but i think i have that figured out by giving the mag a slight slant, forces the rounds to stack properly the project also has a slight slant, just enough to get the rounds to stack. way to damned heavy to be of any real use but hey, who wants a shotgun that can fire 60 rounds in semi getting this thing to chamber properly is still an issue, not sure whats stopping it, i get a classic 1911 style 3 point bind every time. current method of

http://www.wraithmaker.com/ not mine but looks like he did a better job than i did. still no determination on the 80% or not.

strip your saiga down to the trunions and rebuild on the plates. a new receiver, so you could AOW it if you wanted to do so. gotta wait for the BATFE decision on it and since we are in the middle of NASCAR season im going to be building engine blocks for awhile instead of having time to fiddle with this.

Update: instead of messing with swelling a stamped receiver i milled 3 1/4 inch steel plates and have them welded together with angle brackets for support. interior width is the same as a standard saiga receiver but it is 1/2 inch wider. now for the problems. it will not feed correctly unless i stagger the rounds like the enfield but even then its not quite right. stick mags work great, holds 20 rounds. the "project" is doing ok, still has a feeding issue. cut it down to 60 rounds on that one i need to get a BATFE determination on if i can sell the plates as a 80%

Llama Compatibility Report By Ross Robinson Ross Robinson (e-mail at robinsor@cadvision.com) read my doubts about Llama's being exact copies of the M-1911 and he was kind enough to send me his findings on this subject. Thanks Ross. The following parts fit with no modifications required: Extractor, recoil spring, guide rod, recoil spring plug, firing pin stop, magazine, hammer, hammer strut, hammer pin, safety, sear, sear pin. The following parts fit with some modification: Barrel bushing, barrel, firing pin, magazine catch, grip safety, slide stop, trigger, sear spring,

im not saying its a drum mag, its just "The Project" halomfg if that was made in 18g steel and not that plastic we would have the same "project", just mine is bigger im almost 3k into this so far and ill i have to show for it so far is 6 stamping plates, a pile of blown out flats, 1 working "project" thats too heavy to use, and 4 double stack sticks that wont feed right. im gonna fold this, throwing good money after bad.

it too heavy to be usable, i can barely shoulder it. only way i could see doing this would be to make a milled receiver, but that just adds more weight which defeats the purpose.

ok, this is a miserable failure. ive tried several ways, i cant stop the rim from jamming up when it tries to chamber besides loading them like a Enfield, rims stacked in a certain way. receiver blew itself out at the swell, almost took my arm off, added plates to re enforce it, blew out at the rivets. im at a total loss on how to do this. good news is the Beta-C style mag works and holds 50, cost me an arm and a leg to make it though.

so far i can get single stacks to stay put, but i had to add an adapter to them to stop them from wiggling in the swelled receiver. my other project is a complete failure so im going for a Beta-C style instead. im having major problems feeding off the stick mags, bad way of locking on the rim when it cycles. im up to 20 on the double stack sticks and the other project is going to be quite heavy and almost too bulky to be of any real use.

got both the top and bottom plates cut, doing a really good job splitting the receivers at the bulge so far. this is going to take some time.

jesus that a short barrel. im looking to make receivers, not get my ass locked up for an unregistered SBS.

im going to attempt to produce a few test swelled receiver flats and blanks down at the shop at work this week. if i can get this to work properly who would be interested in purchasing one? you would have to replace your current receiver, if youve build an AK before you shouldnt have any problems. im also going to work on a 20 round doublestack box mag and another prototype, which i dont think i can discuss here. should take me much longer to make these since i have to mill out custom dies for the power press.

as easy as it is to make a AK receiver how easy would it be to make a saiga 12 receiver take a double stack mag? second question, why isnt anybody making drum mags for these yet? id love to have a 12 gauge 3" 100 round drum.
