Major Kong

I don't have another clappy person icon, but +1 for what they said...

You have my attention.

Hey Magic, I'm shooting at ORSA on Monday afternoon with some buddies. Any chance you'll be around then?

Major Kong is the Slim Pickens character in Dr Strangelove (you know, fighting the Rooskies). I fly in the AF and miss the good old SAC Cold War days.

PM sent.

I knew I didn't want to read this story when I saw the post title. Wish I hadn't. May that POS burn in hell after a long, slow, painful death.

Bill's Outpost in Maryville had some today. Didn't check the price but they had a dozen or so boxes.

Moreland, Did you go through Gunbroker or is there a good local resource for used NFA stuff?

Try posting this at salon.com and you'll get the answers you're looking for.

Seems like it's all been said already. Happy Easter. Remember why we celebrate this day. God bless.

Man, I hate zombies. Looks like a fun day.

I just got back from visiting with Mike at Predator Customs. I think for my impatience and short term gratification I'm going to get an AR pistol lower and a Predator 11.5" upper (threaded barrel, quad rail, flip up front and rear sights). Then I can buy/build a rifle lower for the SBR and not worry about the wait time for the stamp. Am I missing anything? Any huge flaws in this plan other than having an extra pistol lower in the end?

That's definitely something I was considering. Any truth to the story that most suppressor companies won't warranty suppressors on SBRs less than 10"?

I'd definitely be interested in seeing your Predator Custom. Thanks.

Stupid double tap.

That was brilliant. Texas for the win.

Okay, I understand the basics and I think I've decided I want a SBR. I really like the 7.5" Noveske Diplomat, but I'd also really like to spend less than their asking price. I've also seen Bravo Company and a couple of others that offer SBR packages. Can someone help me weed through the information out there? Who are the best dealers in the SBR world? Am I better off (cost and quality wise) buying a SBR upper and then building my own lower? Any help is appreciated.

Magic, I think I have an extra application I ordered in case I made a mistake on mine. If we're able to meet up to shoot I'll bring it for you.

Heard about this earlier today. The Admiral needs an award for restraint. I would have lost all my rank for the WTF look I'd have given this moron. Our congressional leadership...

I've bought several online from them (great service every time) and have been tempted to waste a day with a drive up there. May have to do it sometime...

Hey Jason, that 1919a4 is sexy. When you say "we built ours" do you mean that you personally built them or that you work with/for a company that does that? The price does seem a lot nicer and I already shoot .308.

I have a thing for impractical weapons (50BMG, 50AE, etc). I think this definitely falls in that category. Anyone ever shot one? Wonder if I could shoot it at ORSA?? Goryunov 7.62x54R SG43 Semi-Auto Part #RIFLE-GOR

Is this the one from THR? It's a beauty. Congrats.

I had the same thing with Aim. I called and they told me to email it. I don't remember the address but it's on the website. They had the account set up within about an hour.

I wish I only had one on my list. I want (in no particular order): 1) Ed Brown Special Forces 2) Colt Delta Elite 10mm 3) FN 5.7 4) S&W Model 625 5) Ed Brown Kobra Karry 6) S&W Model 610 7) Beretta 92FS I'll probably get none of these in the short term unless a deal comes along that I just can't pass up. I had a line on a great deal on a Delta Elite and let it sit for one day too long. Missed out.
