I did pretty much the same thing, but I started with an Ishapore 2A1 in 7.62x51.
It wears an FAL/L1A1 flash hider so that a bayonet may be properly mounted (you simply have to have a bayonet). The 'scout scope' mine wears is a bit shorter in overall length which allowed me to put a single-slot...

Yes, it is required to have a valid, weapons carry permit in one's 'immediate possession' while carrying (same law as for a driving license while driving.) The penalty for not doing so is also the same as for not having a (driving) license in possession ... a $10.oo slap on the...
Absolutely. Let's not forget that it was 'nice, peaceful, gun free, Europe' that gave us that lovely family feud between cousins (King George V of Great Britain, Kaiser Wilhelm II of Germany, and Tsar Nicholas II of Russia) commonly referred to as the First World War which segued later on to a...
A heavier, longer trigger pull isn't something I want on a firearm that's normally used at much, much more than 'bad breath' distance. Unless forced to do so, everyone I've seen uses the single-action method for firing at longer distances where precision is required.
Yes, Miculek busted a...
If you're at the top of the stairs then there's no need to "clear them". Let ol' Mr Hamburgler assault your defensive position (which is doubtful) or exit the premises into the waiting arms of Officer Friendly.
If you're at the bottom of the stairs, then there's no need to "clear them" unless...
No, I didn't contradict myself at all. A NICS background check is not considered proof that a firearm was transferred. A person can fill out a 4473, gotten the OK, and then decided not to purchase a firearm (in their case they had planned a certain amount and were a few dollars short when tax...
You might consider exactly what information is transmitted to FBI/NICS when a 4473 is called in.
No Manufacturer
No Model number
No Serial Number
No Caliber information
Kinda hard to track anything without that information, isn't it?
The NICS check (as admitted by the ATF) only tracks to the...
Missouri Revised Statutes (M.R.S.)
Chapter 563. Defense of Justification
563.031. Use of force in defense of persons.
1. A person may, subject to the provisions of subsection 2 of this section, use physical force upon another person when and to the extent he or she reasonably believes such...
You're right, Frank it would be a crime IF there were continued possession, which would only occur AFTER the person was aware of the serial number being corroded, defaced, etc.(as well as giving evidence of mens rea) Perhaps you'd be kind enough to explain how Mr. Citizen is supposed to have...
Good decision... let's consider a few scenarios that support it:
Citizen has his Glock burnt to a crisp in a housefire that melts the metal serial number tag... felony?
Citizen bails off his touring bike and gets some road rash that makes the serial number on his pistol unreadable or...
For a good place to start, the last update on this was Jan 2014. (Not my list, just something easily found online, here. Feel to update, please.

It doesn't resist side forces to the bullet as well as a cartridge with a longer length case neck, is the only one I can think of. That may possibly lead so some accuracy problems from a bullet not pointed quite straight down the bore.
If someone believes that it's advantageous to have a lightweight single-stack over a heavy, clumsy double-stack, all they have to do is load only 5 rounds into the 17 round magazine. Easy-peazy.
But, if you NEED more than 5 rounds, it's much quicker to just pull the trigger than to reload.
