Law doesn't say anything about pressure washers.

Doing a topic bump with some pricing released. As it stands at this moment if five kits are ordered the price will drop $150 to $1,300. Greater discounts for quantities above this.

If I knew then what I know now about EDC

Or carry a .22 and zipper someone. Point is carry what works for you. -

A good belt is a must. Followed by a good holster (I'm biased, obviously but it still applies). If you want to see what not to do check my thread "Which one of you was in the Co-Op." Carry method wise I either carry OWB or pocket carry. Only time I carry IWB is when I'm in gym shorts because I don't normally leave my shirt un-tucked. Best advice from me would be try a couple things and just see what's the most comfortable to you. -
Nah, it's just pre-cooked.

Obviously I can't say right now what the completed price will be but I'd wager that you will save several hundred over buying a clone. Given you will be putting in the time and work.

Feature difference? As in what's the sales pitch on why you should go this route? If that's the question I would say A) satisfaction of doing something yourself and B ) price. I get the satisfaction out building things and being able to say "this is mine, I built this. " That's why I'm in it.

Magpul DAKA™ Essential Wallet
gjohnsoniv replied to GlockSpock's topic in Firearms Gear and Accessories
Magpul is really branching out all of a sudden. They just released a buffer tube as well. -
No raining on the parade here, that's why this thread was started, to put it out there and get ideas. That's a thought that hasn't been considered.

Yes, as stated everyone would be doing the bending and welding of their flat. I was thinking that it would probably be best to set it up where there are two groups that are working on different aspects at the same time, and then swapping tasks. My other thought was getting some plate steel that's the same gauge as the flat and cutting it into strips. Bend those to 90 degrees and let people practice the weld on that before moving on to the flat.
-
It's hard to say with these since it's new to us. My thought would be that it's probably going to be an all day affair.
-
I think that could be arranged.
-
Furthering my points from earlier. This could pretty well turn into a crash welding, bending, demilling, pressing, and pinning course. So it will at a minimum be educational.

TedS and I were discussing building some MP5 pistols from the HK Parts build kit and thought this might be an unique opportunity for those interested. I spoke on the phone the other with the owner of HK Parts and it is possible to get a discount/s from the list price. However it requires a certain number purchased. I would say if you've ever had an interest in doing one of these that you're probably not going to see this price again. Now for the details. This is still very much up in the air, nothing has been confirmed and this thread is to just judge possible interest. It needs to be said that this would not be a cheap or easy build, it's not an ar and does require some mechanical aptitude. It's also not inexpensive as I said. HK parts are expensive and I'm actively trying to see how low I can get it but it is what it is. We should have all the required tooling but if you have basic hand tools and something like a Dremel and consumables bring it, you'll more than likely need it. That's it for this announcement but if you want more info send me a pm or comment below.

I'm a fan of the Galaxy phones and have had several at this point. That's probably what I'm going to end up with when I go to upgrade.

Silly Victor, you forgot to put potatoes in the container.

That will last as long as it takes the idiots to write clarification letters to the ATF. -

I would argue the safely part. He's using an Uncle Mike's holster and it's overloaded at that. Anyone who wanted that gun could have ripped off without second thought. I mean come on, Uncle Mike's is the joke of the holster world. -
