    What is the diff. between these two calibers?

    manwithoutahome, I started reading this thread yesterday and just got done rereading it today, and several of your initial posts gave the impression that you actually shot the rifle - one comment in particular really made it seem like you actually shot 7.62x39 out of the .223/5.56 upper...

    AKs with da switch?

    Any post-86 MG kept in your inventory is intended to be used a demo for LE/mil agencies. A request from a suitable agency is required in order for the ATF to approve the transfer. They will only allow you to have one of any particular model in inventory at one time, and you can only keep it...

    Return of the Wondernine?

    I'd say there will be a resurgency in existing models, but I'd expect any manufacturers to test the new waters for a bit before any new firearms designs - or at least not those aimed a LE, and they seem to be going away from 9mm anyway. It isn't coincidence that most pistols bound for the...

    Moving From CA to PA: New Purchases?

    For renewals, yes - I figure it may be the same with any other photo card. They won't just accept the old license anymore, then want your SS card too. I didn't find this out until after I was in line to renew mine in may - and of course, I guess I lost my SS card. The "funny" thing was...

    **Is Cal's Sporting Armory out of business???**

    They're probably depressed about the AWB expiring, and have gone into mourning - they won't be able to try to cause legal trouble with their competition anymore, calling the ATF, claiming they are selling illegal preban mags. Rocko

    Suppressors and first round pop

    You can add liquid/grease/etc. to pretty much any can for some additional noise reduction. The difference between those advertised as "wet" cans is that they require it to reach the advertised suppression levels and are significantly louder dry. Most modern 9mm pistol cans are "dry"...

    10/22 trigger help

    VQ hammer lightens up the trigger pull, but, IMHO, that only makes the horrendous creep that much more noticable. This can be fixed by drilling and tapping the sear for a set screw to adjust engagement or adding material (JB weld) to the sear for the same effect. PC recently came out with a...

    NFA as a way around 922(r) importation ban!

    Please note that 922(r) prohibits assembly of a firearm that is restricted from import - not the importation in and of itself. So yes, if you register an imported firearm (which obviously had to be in configuration "suitable for sporting purposes" to get imported in the first place), then you...

    First .22: Browning Buckmark :-)

    I recently got my buckmark threaded for a can - never really used Remington ammo before, but I was trying out all different brands to see what was the quietest - also dug out my chrony for the process. Long story short, the Remington Subsonic absolutely sucked. I had a few boxes that I got...

    Has anybody ever tried Gun-Kote oven cure gun finish?

    I would suggest passing on the rattle-can version and use an airbrush. If you don't have an airbrush or compressor, you can get a cheap one in a kit that uses the cans of aresol propellant for like $20. Order it direct from the manufacturer, http://www.kgcoatings.com/ , and you can save...

    AR-15 lower receiver FFL transfer costs?

    I think what the original poster is looking for is perhaps a discount on multi-unit transfers. I don't think this is unreasonable, as there isn't much more work on the dealer's end for multiple units transfered at once - they'll all go on the same 4473, same NICS call (in this case, PICS...

    The High Road logo/Molon Labe clothing for sale, order by July 31st

    I recall in the last sale thread that the shirts are either cotton or cotton blend, depending on style. Can you say for sure which style is which? I'm interested in both the tshirts and the sweatshirts, only really if 100% cotton... Thanks.

    Electronic ear protection

    I have two pairs of the cheapie HF sets myself (only works if both parties in any conversation can hear ;) ). I haven't had them out for more than a few sessions yet, so can't comment on long-term durability, but I'd think that in any case, they'd be a cheap experiment to see if that sort of...

    safe on skid???

    You should really bolt it to the floor, in which case the skid has got to go. Remember, anything that makes the safe easier for you to move does the same for a criminal. If you are worried about water damage, I'd pour a concrete pad for it, which would help in bolting it down as well, if you...

    C&R Audit.

    All C&R firearms purchased while you are a licensee need to be recorded in your bound book, regardless of whether or not you "used" the licensee in the purchase. Non C&R firearms do not. FWIW, chatter on many of the boards suggests that the ATF is stepping up on 03 audits - IMHO, too many...

    1903a3 - $100??

    Title II weaponry supply?

    Importation of MG's for civilian ownership was given the axe in the 1968 GCA. These were the original "non-sporting" guns - the definition of which, has of course, been greatly expanded over the years. So, and imports between 1968 and 1986 are "pre-samples" and can only be purchased by a...

    UPDATE: Hats are on their way, THR shirts will be done in a couple of days

    Got the hats, look great, just as the previous ones I've gotten. I'd also got an embroidered shirt a while back ("Molon Labe" only, no site logos) - I didn't see them listed this run, will you be doing these again in the future? Maybe the run next month? Gave one to one of the "C" level...
