  1. Got a call from Blaine at Atlantic Firearms this morning !! Blaine is a really straight-up guy !! His shipment of 10-rounders just got to him this week, what with the holiday and all....... He tells me they will begin shipping on Monday or Tuesday !!! You can't ship what you don't have....so now that he actually has them, those of us who pre-ordered from Atlantic will begin to see magazines very quickly !!!! Also, if you're on this forum, be sure and mention it when contacting Blaine....... it'll go better for you. He also said when the new AGP feed lips come out from Kevin, shoot him an
  2. .......I also ordered right away from Atlantic, and like you, haven't heard shit. I've actually e-mailed twice asking for status (2nd time yesterday) and nothing................ I actually called and talked to Blaine about a week ago, and couldn't even get whether or not I'd made the first-batch pre-order list or not................. I mean, WTF............ ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? If he has received the mags, then I guess I need to assume I didn't make the first batch list, because I haven't been contacted......however, if he doesn't respond to a status inquiry from someone on th
  3. ........yep, came in today !!!!!! Now to get the rest of 'em I've ordered, and a gun to put 'em in............ Perfectly illustrates that timing is everything.................
  4. .....tracking number says they left Chicago at 7:01 this morning........scheduled for delivery tomorrow !!!! ....actually considering buying another TROMIX S-12 while waiting for my SBS to come through........... Imagine having these 10-rounders with nothing to put 'em in....!! Don't know if I can stand that............ STILL NOTHING FROM ATLANTIC !!!! ANYONE HEARD ANYTHING FROM ATLANTIC?????
  5. A cooler full of cold beer.......$$ A new Cub Cadet........$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ A TROMIX SBS............$$$$$$$$$$ Holidays with no family within a thousand miles............PRICELESS !!!!! (There'll be other days, Bob..... didja ride that "Cliffhanger" at Six Flags???? A real teeth-clencher.....)
  6. Riley (Airedale Terrier) He goes about 80 pounds, and stands 28" at the shoulder......He's big for an Airedale.
  7. ..........now THAT sounds like a good Thanksgiving !!!!
  8. well, I just didn't want to go to 8"........call it a personal preference / esthetics kind of a thing........ I like the factory handguard, and I can have the shark brake right off the end of the handguard, and still come to a barrel length of just over 10"........It just looks better to me........... Tony, Bob, and I sat, beer in hand, and juggled all the options about it, and that's how I decided to go with it !! This'll be Tony's first one just like this, and he agrees it'll look bad-ass............ And, yes.......there will be pictures !!!!!! That's the thing about Tony......you can g
  9. I'm in the same boat! AAAAAAHHH! Im gonna have mags and no gun! Its like some twisted Shakespeare play! ...and wouldn't you know it, TODAY Oleg @ Rusmilitary e-mailed me about my 8-rounders...........So now I'll have a double handful of 10's and 8's, and no shotgun................ It won't be long before I have it back, though, and it'll be way kick-ass when I do........Picture this gun with a Shark Brake right off the end of the handguard with no barrel showing.................and a 10-round mag............ Yes???? Mine is identical to this one, except with a shorter barrel........
  10. SHIPPED !!!!! 3-5 DAYS !!!!!! WOOHOO !!!!! .........now, to get my shotgun back. (Tony has it for a little further modification.) When I DO get it back, I'll have the 10's to put in it !!!! (and someday.........the 8's, too.......) Ironic, somehow......... It's really gonna be bad-ass........another Tromix masterpiece.......... .......BTW, has anyone heard about Atlantic starting to ship yet??
  11. heh, heh, heh.................... .............far ago and long away........................... heh, heh, heh............... Good to know that we all made it to this point, huh? Hell.......a beer to US !!!
  12. +1 on all of that ^^^^^^^^^^^^^ .........jus' cause you don't see sailors carryin' 'em around, don't mean they ain't got 'em...... I especially like #20 and #22...........reminds me of the ol' days........... Hey, I got OUT in 1967.........and, whew, the shit they had even back then......! (USS Fulton, 10th Submarine Squadron, North Atlantic Fleet.........New London)
  13. ........oh, and let's not forget how well those stripe-legged bell-hops do at carrying our seabags....... (also just joking.........some of my best buds over the years were Marines..........)
  14. USMC Rules For Gunfighting 1. Bring a gun. Preferably, bring at least two guns. Bring all of your friends who have guns. 2. Anything worth shooting is worth shooting twice. Ammo is cheap. Life is expensive. 3. Only hits count. The only thing worse than a miss is a slow miss. 4. If your shooting stance is good, you're probably not moving fast enough nor using cover correctly. 5. Move away from your attacker. Distance is your friend. (Lateral and diagonal movements are preferred.) 6. If you can choose what to bring to a gunfight, bring a long gun and a friend w
  15. zappa..........muffin man j.j. cale...........okie a bit of little feat............. tower of power.........what is hip other really old, obscure stuff..............."larry raspberry & the highsteppers".........(she came into the bar with a 44 in each hand, and she don't even own a gun..................)
  16. W..........T.............F ????? Yes, they are real. No, it's not a cruel hoax. Yes, this site has been taken over by (very well-armed) stoned high school pranksters. Phone numbers, prices, etc., are available at: agparms.com atlanticfirearms.com (go to Saiga shotguns, and type in AGP in the product search) You may not have made it in time as far as getting them in the first production run, but hurry-hurry and check with Atlantic.......they actually may still have a few left..........also Jammer on this forum (you'll have to find the thread.....there's about half-a-dozen
  17. heh, heh, heh........ Damn, Bob......last time I saw "the hat", it didn't have an elephant under it...!!! (at least I hope that's a trunk..........) Really nice picture of the toy box, too........ (As I recall, it's not the only one, either.............. ) I say again: "Fuck DisneyWorld. I've been to Tony's shop !!!!" GREAT HAT !!!!!
  18. +1 on the Star as a fine pistol.........I have 3 of the Firestar series, 9, 40, & 45........ never a problem with any of 'em.........used the Firestar 45 to qualify for my CCW renewal the last time I renewed. Solid and reliable.......runs anything you put in 'em.......
  19. ..and, Bob..........speaking of accessorizing, the subject of your hat came up tonight on chat !! I'm thinking it would be of interest if you'd post a picture of THAT accessory........!!! (Helluva hat, y'all.....!!) How 'bout it ????? (Picture Bob in this hat, shoulder-firing that M60 ...........)
  20. Kevin, Will the orders to GunSource and Atlantic Firearms be going out relatively soon ???? .....and thanks again for pointing out GunSource to me regarding the mags............ I would've really hated to be waiting for another pre-order list....................
  21. .....the laws which state you have no duty to retreat from a place where you have a lawful right to be are called "Castle Doctrine" laws. They give you a right to stand your ground in the face of threat, and to utilize up to deadly force in return, with no requirement to retreat under the law. Florida was the first state to enact this legislation, as they were with the "shall-issue" CCW laws. Louisiana passed a similar law about 20 years ago, but it only involved your home or your vehicle. It was commonly referred to as "the shoot-a-burglar" bill !!!! Accordingly, the burglary rate p
  22. ........my understanding talking to them is that they wait until ready to ship to bill your card.
  23. .......I just lay back and wait for the packages to come to the mailbox............Hell, I love surprises !!!! Kevin, you rock !!! Thanks !!!!!
  24. ......again, it's the politically-correct, limited warfare shit that was the root of our disaster in 'Nam........ Early on, if there'd been a couple of low-yield tactical nukes cruised onto Najaf and Fallujah, with the promise of further deliveries to Baghdad, Damascus, and Tehran..we would be done with this shit right now. If we're to go to war, then, by God, go to war. Communicate with these bastards in a manner they'll understand. .........and now, with the Democrats in control......... if you think Iraq has been bad to this point, just wait. Not to mention that to the Democr
  25. ........"a modded one for under a grand might be considered".......... TROMIX !!!!! Under a grand for a basic conversion, and the best you can get for the $$$$$ !!!! Have a look at WWW.TROMIX.COM..................Tony does the best work around, for my money. Have a look around this site, and you'll find most everyone agrees with that position. His site lists what a basic conversion consists of.......... Look in the Title 1 - non-NFA area !!!! $750 for a basic TROMIX conversion, including the shotgun....!!!
