MCASgt New River 10,036 Posted May 4, 2016 Report Share Posted May 4, 2016 Do not place links to non-business member websites in any posts. GySgt NR Link to post Share on other sites
menace667 194 Posted May 4, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 4, 2016 Thanks for the helpful reply there fella. None of the business members carry the Law adapter, so it would be hard to link their advertisement for it. Link to post Share on other sites
evlblkwpnz 3,418 Posted May 5, 2016 Report Share Posted May 5, 2016 It is just a rule and he is here to ensure that it is followed. Personally, I think that linking rule should be changed to "no links to products/services that compete with paying site vendors", but I don't write the rules here, lol. Onward, that would be a really really long setup. You might wait for a different product to be released. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
MCASgt New River 10,036 Posted May 5, 2016 Report Share Posted May 5, 2016 Menace667, Lucky for you I didn't remove the entire thread, give you warning points, restrict your posting ability, or use any of the other tools I have available to me. I would also suggest the removal of your wise-azz attitude. Respectfully, Gunny NR 1 Link to post Share on other sites
menace667 194 Posted May 5, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 5, 2016 let me tell you, I feel genuinely blessed that you took it easy on me....gee thanks. What ever would be do without rude and condecending mods like you to be our internet daddies. You can take your points and use them to scrub your colon. Link to post Share on other sites
gunfun 3,931 Posted May 5, 2016 Report Share Posted May 5, 2016 Sarcasm is unneeded. We're all guests in another man's house. It's not unreasonable to follow his rules. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
menace667 194 Posted May 5, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 5, 2016 Evl gets my point exactly. Not a single vendor on this forum carries the part (i checked, Inspent a small fortune between CSS and MAA on my last Vepr and S12 and always try to support entities that support the forums) but whether he is a mod or not, trying to be a tough guy on the Internet is a douche bag move so I will act in kind. Then to make it worse he acts like he is gonna ground me or something with threats of points or limiting me? Go for it if that tickles your pickle but be a man and do it, don't act like you are gonna beat me up "I would also suggest the removal of your wise-azz attitude" is bull. All I wanted was feedback on the possible use of a part from members here. The part is only carried by a few vendors at all due to the insane cost of it, so I didn't see an issue with the link. Now my thread has turned into a bitch match. Sad part is this is the most activity the V12 area has seen in a while. Link to post Share on other sites
gunfun 3,931 Posted May 5, 2016 Report Share Posted May 5, 2016 It looks to me as though I would want to cut down the buffer tube to keep down OAL if I was using that part. Link to post Share on other sites
menace667 194 Posted May 5, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 5, 2016 Cutting the buffer tube is an idea I hadn't considered. Could shorten the length of pull from being crazy and still allow side folding. Too bad Incant find a FSF for a decent price. Any other ideas of how to make it fold using a fixed stock as the base?

gunfun 3,931 Posted May 6, 2016 Report Share Posted May 6, 2016 That's easy enough. hacksaw the trunion flush, tap and thread for Ace hing. Actual ACE brand new style are supposed to be a lot more solid than the old ones and clones. Link to post Share on other sites
menace667 194 Posted May 6, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 6, 2016 Seems CSS has solved my issue for me. They have an adapter they just listed for the fixed stock VEPR that replaces the Frankenstein trunion and is an adapter for ACE folder adapters or the CSS raptor style stock without folder attached. Either way it looks like an awesome option to roll with and I am on the "get notified list". Thanks to you all who posted useful opinions or info on the topic. Sorry I went into bitch mode.

evlblkwpnz 3,418 Posted May 13, 2016 Report Share Posted May 13, 2016 Menace, step back from the ledge. It is not that big a deal. I have had to enforce rules that I didn't necessarily feel were complete and just. Being a mod can be a real pain in the ass. Some people are hard to deal with and it is easy to start employing the same technique for everyone simply because it works efficiently. Sometimes moderating can be an all afternoon or night scramble to put out fires. The mods here even have other factors at play that I didn't have to deal with and I can only imagine what that level of it is like. I never understood anything about it until I walked in those shoes.
