Cobra, Ok, I admit I didn't read this entire thread, but how hard is this LRBHO install? Does it require cutting the reciever or drilling something? I'm planning on getting my gun converted and was wondering if I should hold off on the conversion until your LRBHO is ready. Thanks, Jake

I need to order the ERGO grips on Tuesday 1/22/08. Up until this time, new group members can sign up for the ERGO or SAW grips. After this date, only SAW grips will be available. Thanks, Jake

Guys/Gals, Please include your screen name and real name with all correspondence. This group buy stuff is a big pain in the A$$ on my end and it is made more difficult when you don't include your screen name.

Dang it! Another group buy? It turns out I can get these at about $85 shipped. The ones without the slots are a bit cheaper. Anyone interested? If so, email me the next week and I'll set it up. Jake

***UPDATE*** I got the shepherds crooks and disconnector springs from Tony today. Thanks! Also got 1/2 of the SAW grips, 30 single hook FCG's, and and 30 grip screws/bushings today. We're headed in the right direction! I'm just waiting on the ERGO grips and the ACE parts. Reference the sling swivels, it looks like they are included. The following is from ACE's website description: ACE's famous AKFX folding skeleton stock. Includes all parts and hardware to mount it to your stamped AK. AKRBC Internal Receiver Block (AKRBC), folding stock mechanism (FSM-SMG), Skeleton st

So, are these helpful for trap shooting or something/hunting? Anyone have a picture with one installed? Jake

What's the value of one of these? Do they screw on a stock 19" threaded barrel? Thanks, Jake

Juggernaut, As I read the law, 30" is not a problem. Must be longer than 26" with folded stock. If between 26" and 30" it just has to be registered as a 'pistol' in MI. Text below from MSP FAQ on firearms... 3. Do rifles or shotguns with collapsible/folding stocks have to be registered in Michigan? MCL 750.222 Yes, provided the rifle or shotgun is 30 inches or less in overall length with the stock collapsed/folded but at least 26 inches and the barrel length is at least 16 inches and 18 inches respectively. Attorney General's opinion #6280: if the firearm is less than 26

Yeah baby! I'm a one in a thousand! Thanks for the update! Jake

Check Brownells. They have tons of gunsmithing parts and my recollection is that they have a very nice selection of pads. Jake

***UPDATE*** #30 disconnector springs and shepherd's crook ordered today. Thanks Tony! Tapco has plenty of parts available. Ergo has all the grips we need. Jake

More than good enough for me! Jake

If I was lucky enough to get a Tromix gun, you can bet I'd be paying extra to have the name put on it! Jake

Now that's a great pic! Nalioth, is the crook not as good as the plate? I'm happy to look into other options, but I got the recommendation from someone who I figure knows much more than me. If it works, I'm fine with it. If a fire control group retainer plate is better, I'm happy to look into that, too. Jake

Nalioth, I've no idea. I was told by Tony of Tromix that we needed a Shepherds crook and that he'd be willing to supply one. Very gracious guy. Anyway, I'm ordering them from him and will include whatever he sends in the kit. Jake

Many happy years to you two! Thanks for your service, too. Jake

That's what I was thinking, but wasn't sure. Actually, there is a good argument that DD's could be full-auto and still DD's. There has been some talk of being able to make a new FA DD and using it. Other than that, MG does trump SBR, AOW, etc. Jake

Hello, The group buy is up and running. LINK to group buy thread... Thanks, Jake

I've never done the conversion myself, but it looks pretty straight forward. Nothing too challenging. Jake

***Group Buy is on!*** See this thread in the for sale section: LINK Thanks, Jake
