Turning a Draco SBR AK full auto?

[mboylan]

This is what I always tell my friends:

We all say "God I wish I could go back to pre 86, I'd form1 every darn rifle I have". Well, stop looking backward and start looking forward! We are in a very similar situation, make the most out of it! In 10 years, do NOT be saying "remember how easy an cheap it was to buy a silencer (accepted term regardless what someone says) back in 2012? Heck, you could make SBR's out of kits you ordered online. Dang I wish I could go back to 2012".

I know we don't have it as good as those lucky bastidz 30yr ago, but by God (and the NRA) we've got it pretty darn good now and I for one don't plan on wasting it. If/when silencers are $4,000 each (like no one thought M11's would ever be) I wont be kicking myself in the butt. Seriously, play the hand we're holdin

It wasn't as easy as you think 30 years ago. You absolutely had to have a CLEO approval as an individual. Most would tell you to go to hell. There's a really good reason why only 181,000 full autos were registered before 1986.

Well, that's all the more reason for people to forget wanting to relive the "good ol days" and enjoy the relative ease with which an SBR or silencer can be had

And what was up with LLC's and RLT's back then? Folks just didn't know about em? My SMG isn't registered to me, personally, no CLEO sig, no pix, no prints.

but by God (and the NRA)

I cringe every time I hear someone praise the NRA. The NRA told Uncle Ronnie to sign the bill that the Hughes Amendment was tacked on to (the bill banning civilian ownership of machine guns). IF I don't put this in no doubt a mod will be quick to point out that there were some protections for gun owners in that bill, but they were luke-warm at best and those protections could have been done differently without signing a bill into law that had an amendment tacked on that failed a floor vote.

The NRA is not your friend. I will say it till my dying day.

I am a life member of the NRA, but I do not believe that they are friends of the NFA community. For the sake of compromise, political expediency, or something else, they are not on our side. We are sort of like the crazy uncle that the family would just as soon forget about, except that we show up at the reunions now and again and make everyone uncomfortable until we leave.

And should anyone wonder, I joined the NRA years before I was even aware that the NFA existed. As time went on, I got smarter.

Drifting far away from the original topic.

Always good to see a good NRA-bash-fest coming on though.
