  1. I won't, thanks. But a range report would be great. I suspect prices would be a little higher than a regular Romak.
  2. That would be a variation of the Romak III.
  3. There are 10rd fixed mag receivers for ARs. And there are single shot receivers for ARs. I cannot understand the point of a single shot AR.
  4. My impression was that KA people could have AK builds on receivers that aren't yet named, including homemade ones, but that they have to have either a fixed 10rd mag or no restricted features, not even a thumbhole. The result would be building what amounts to a Saiga on an AK parts kit. I've been working on designs for a rear end conversion that would serve such a build well, as well as for anyone who likes that sort of style But I don't have any major progress yet.
  5. Which one is HR808? And do you mean HR1096, the one that does away with "sporting purposes" BS?
  6. Yes and no. Yes I've made furniture for the Romanian PSL. No I'm not ready to produce/take fresh orders, because I need to get myself a PSL to model the attachments correctly. What I did for Romakdaddy was very much a cooperative project, and one I represent myself to be ready to make should have less effort required from the buyer. If you're interested in a higher-than-normal maintenance purchase, let's talk.
  7. A Mini-14 is made in the USA. It doesn't have to be. The law referred to above refers to imports or assembly from imported parts.
  8. Think of it this way: Free speech on a gun forum, within established forum rules printed for everyone to see, is like free water at a restaurant. They don't owe it to you, but if they don't offer it under some terms they'll probably have fewer customers in general.
  9. This has been linked to before, but I figured one thread for the whole weblog, bumped occasionally when there's an update, would make sense. These are articles written by me to be used as a resource in your discussions defending the RKBA. Generally these give a slightly different slant than what we're used to, often turning the other side's logic against them or exhaustively refuting their claims. To most of us they're preaching to the chior. They probably won't convince the craziest leftists, but thoughtful people whose awareness of gun related issues could be improved could benefit
  10. Free speech is a right under the constitution. Part of it is that you can be free to make your rules in a private forum on what speech is and isn't tolerated. Free speech on an internet forum is a matter of being competitive. Certain kinds of talk are and aren't befitting of a gun forum. A good forum is one that has the right rules and the right people to enforce them. If one forum won't, another forum will. Gun forums that I have positive experiences with: www.gunandgame.com (I'm a mod) www.akfiles.com www.gunco.net www.ar15.com www.akforum.net www.graybeardoutdoors.com (emp
  11. He doesn't need a controversial product to make enemies.
  12. Hey, if that's what you consider the ultimate rifle then sure! But this isn't the ultimate rifle collection, so you have to pick only one version. If I were using such a platform, I'd go with the 6.5 Grendel.
  13. The last thing we should be doing is prodding the ATF. Harrassing an LE agency only brings about a rash reaction. If they ever didn't want to touch an issue, you've now forced them to. MD's offensive comments combined with high pressure marketting, ie "stop being a ***** and buy a drum", along with his being convinced that the S-12 would go DD and thus wanting to make his bucks really quick, are enough to turn me off to buying anything from him for professional reasons alone. If anyone was mad at how FBMG treated people, that is nothing compared to his customer relations disaster.
  14. Correct me if I'm wrong, but: This is not Bvamp's house. Bvamp was the first moderator apart from the admin. The mods here have most of the tools that admins do elsewhere, like banning and such. But Bvamp is not the owner, unless some sort of part-ownership arrangement has been made that I don't know about. The best analogy would be a manager. Vice president AT BEST. This is Makc's forum. While we should not be undermining the authority of those who manage the forums, voicing grievances in a reasonable manner through the proper channels is exactly what we should be doing. I w
  15. I'm very uninclined to respond at all, except to make some note to the Brady Bunch that my screen name should never be associated with them. But I figured it would be fun to share this event and hear some opinions, and I may at some point respond somehow, maybe.
  16. Haedline: Gun Owner Commits act of violence in response to e-mail The Brady Bunch: See? He doesn't even have to use a gun - the gun makes him violent by proximity!
  17. I just got this E-mail, titled "In BattleRifle's name: $50 donation made to the Brady Center" I am open to suggestions on how to respond, or not. I have no interest in getting into a flame war that people participate in recreationally. Ideas I've had: 1.) Concisely point out the fallacies in his statements about me in a reply, which would be my last. 2.) Reply that I'm sending $100 total to one or more pro-gun associations. 3.) Remove my E-mail address from public view and tell people to contact me through private messages instead for permission to use and information to cite
  18. There is no law against making any magazine. There is a law allowing a federal agency to ban any shotgun arbitrarily. That is what we are concerned about. There is such a thing as picking one's battles. For example, supporting a law like HR 1096 upholding the 2nd Amendment in its original meaning that would then apply to all firearms, including those this forum focuses on, instead of challenging a ruling on a specialty item. The administration of this forum has chosen its position on this matter, and we who are not administrators need to comply when posting in this forum. The item
  19. I always figured that was his forum as a business member, and that the other forums were chosen by admin decision for the forum members to discuss the items objectively. Sort of like a general forum having a Remington forum, vs having a Remington owned and sponsored forum on their site. I see the business forum as being between the business and the admin, and the open discussion forums as being between the admin and the members. So whatever's most amenable to all parties.
  20. He could also manufacture a fresh mag more easily than trying to force a BAR mag in the wrong shaped mag well. Tony did give a price quote on a beltfed 12ga. To my knowledge no one has taken him up on it.
  21. Depends on whether it's for an angle cut receiver or not. Would something vaguely similar to this suit you? I can make them to your preferences and it would count for US parts compliance.
  22. I use double hook for personal preference. I make a minor mod to the receiver to allow it to work. And the G2 FCG alone is reason enough to do the conversion. I can't imagine a conversion without one. What handguard are you using that's US made? Halo?
  23. It could happen. This board structure was set up a while ago. It's been suggested and may occur. It would be a great way to put Tromix project and announcements neatly in a place where others can find them. I have also suggested that a Tromix forum displace the Hesse forum. Again, it could happen. Mods and admins do have lives too, and good ideas still take time to be considered and implemented.
