Slide fire?

Even the Street Sweeper owners were given the opportunity to register them tax free, under amnesty. Seems like that would be another angle for a court challenge, maybe even a crowbar to go after the Hughes Amendment with. -

Yeah, I saw that too. Not that I have any desire to make one, but there is a .pdf floating around showing how. -

You know that at some point over the course of this holiday season, everyone still in possession of a bump stock probably uttered the words, "Now I have a machine gun, ho ho ho." -

Honestly if the CZ wasn't so pretty I would probably have dumped it a long time ago. It also had problems with misfeeds and failures to fire due to light primer strikes right out of the box. I seem to have gotten those bugs worked out of it thankfully... The misfeeds went away when I bought 2 new magazines (one that shipped with the gun is defective), and I had to make a spacer for the striker spring to boost the preload on it.

The Federal JSP in the blue box is a little better out of my CZ than even the Lapua, but I didn't find any of the other Federal ammo to be worth a shit. The Lapua runs around 1.25moa, and the blue box will do just a hair better than that. Winchester JSP from the silver box is the 3rd best and usually does about 1.5moa, while Hornady Zombie Max is a very consistent 2moa. IIRC the Czech made S&B was 5th best at around 2.2, and everything else turns into a shit show from there on out for me.

What were you doing on 9/11/01?
netpackrat replied to evlblkwpnz's topic in General Discussion - Any topic is welcome here!!!
I was sound asleep (maybe I could get a job at the FBI; they were asleep on 9/11 too). Wife had gotten job in new city and went on ahead of me, I was still in my hometown packing to move. Got woken up by phone call from her telling me to turn on the TV. TV was packed... Got on the computer, news sites were all slammed and dialup ISP was going slow as fuck (small town, rural Alaska prior to them getting cable modems) so I couldn't see anything. Finally found a site that would load. Not very interesting all in all. My brother's story was slightly more interesting than that. He was at -

I have a couple of their grips and they are okay, but I like Hogues better these days. Are you telling me people are paying that much for them? -

Honestly, this place is a lot less of a cesspool than it used to be, now that the traffic has dropped off. -

Assuming each of the ad buttons on the right of the screen still represents a paying advertiser, plus all of y'all that keep sending him money, I'm sure he's still turning a profit, and now with less admin headaches due to less users/traffic. Of course, that assumes all of those ad buttons actually represents a still paying forum sponsor and that he didn't just leave them up to present the illusion of an active forum with satisfied customers (sponsors) to any other potential sponsors. I once bought a business membership at another forum, that had seen a downturn kind of like this one has
