  1. If you're looking for some good 00 buck cheap, SGAmmo has a "special purchase" going. I really don't need it, but for the price, I think I'll snag a case anyway. S&B won't work in a drum, but I use the stick mags more, so no big deal for me. http://www.sgammo.com/product/12-gauge/special-purchase-250-round-case-sellier-bellot-12-gauge-275-inch-9-pellet-oo-buck-s
  2. I shouldn't have said "most", but "as much". In the last 30 years: Reagan: Firearms Protection Act of 1986 - automatic weapons ban Bush Sr: Assault weapons import ban 1989 Ronald Reagan is used as the benchmark for Republican candidates, and is the yardstick by which many are measured in the party. Said one Ronaldus Magnus in 1991: "I support the Brady Bill, and I urge the Congress to enact it without further delay." Guiliani and Romney (both GOP Pres. cadidates) were big on gun control, with Romney passing legislation as governor of Mass. Yes, Clinton passed the '94 ban, but t
  3. I take little comfort in that, in that with the shift in demographics and Marxist indoctrination in our schools and society we are likely to have seen the last "conservative" President (conservative used loosely). Even the last election included two candidates that weren't gun-friendly on both sides. Hell, most gun control has come from the GOP side, so even that isn't a reason for hope. I see little reason to believe that any executive order passed today will be undone tomorrow. Things will likely only get worse. Anything is possible, but I'm a pessimist when it comes to our overlords.
  4. Give it a try and see how it does; you may be OK. Shot a friend's SGL12 right out of the box with Estate Dove 7½ loads (1290fps?). Seemed to love them - no failures - ate 'em like Skittles. No real problems with Remington #8 target loads (1200fps) either. Now the Winchester AA #9s that were around 1140fps....that was another story. Oh - and 3¼-1 probably represents the "3¼ dram equiv., 1 ounce of shot".
  5. As a group of people that hold their pistols sideways while shooting short-range drive bys, I'm not sure "accuracy and distance" is part of their thought process.
  6. Grabagun has 12 round ProMags for $64.96 and free shipping, too.
  7. With the gas block off, all of them will be exposed (however many your particular gun has). I've not seen any of the other configurations, but the four port models have the ports in a diamond shape. You should be able to get an idea of how many ports you have by just taking the puck out and eyeballing them through the hole in the bottom of the gas block. A dental mirror will remove all doubt. I wouldn't try and drill anything with the gas block still in place; I saw a vid of a guy on youtube doing that.
  8. Don't be too afraid of the drilling your own ports thing; it's really pretty simple. Did one in less than 30 minutes, though they can really, really vary in difficulty of gas block removal.
  9. Good advice, and if anyone is concerned whether they are legal or not, they really should make sure they are clear on it. As an aside, people need to make sure they're following the law, but honestly - when was the last time you heard of anyone being hassled by an LEO over 922r compliance? I'm pretty sure most LEOs wouldn't know what is what with what firearm, and I'm even more sure most wouldn't even care, providing you're not doing something stupid to make them dig a little deeper. But the law is the law, so it's best to be sure you're on the right side of it. Because after all; who
  10. Never thought about a drum; follower and body, but floorplate? Good question. Sounds like you're still short, as the mag and handguard make four. Do a search, or check for the sticky that has the interactive list you can check and uncheck to see where you're at.
  11. I guess it depends on the SGL; I know the -09 K-Var was selling uses a US-made handguard, but wasn't sure on the buttstock. Swap that SAW grip out for a more comfortable US-made pistol grip, use SGM or other US-made mags, and you're down to one (providing it's an SGL-09, or another model with the same US-made handguard). I'm thinking Bonesteel folder myself. Of course, one could just switch out that FCG, too. Would definately be the cheaper way to go, anyway, but not as cool as the folding stock.
  12. If the buttstock is US-made (not sure), then with U.S. made high-cap mags, he'd be close (mag body, follower, floorplate, hand guard, buttstock). I'd just add a hogue or other pistol grip, and I think that would do it. I've not seen an actual list of the SGL12's compliance parts, so not sure. Am I way off here?
  13. How did you find that the factory FCG isn't compliant? My understanding of all of the myriad of B.S. written about 922r compliance, is that the burden of compliance is on the manufacturer of the firearm, not on possession. If the SGL is indeed non-compliant, FIME ( or whoever adds the U.S. parts for compliance) could be in a world of shit - not you.
  14. I see K-Var has now removed the SGL12-07 and SGL12-09 from their products page, and all other models are (and have been) out of stock as well. There's a blog that states what Mach 1 said above, that Izhmash halted production around the 1st of last November. I've seen some internet rumors say it's to re-tool for newer models. Who knows. "The famed original AK maker Izhmash is on the brink of collapse. Production of sporting rifles has stopped, export contacts cannot be fulfilled and skilled workers are leaving the company." http://www.thefirearmblog.com/blog/2012/10/31/mikhail-kalash
