  1. It’s another step closer to a big brother computerized registration process.
  2. No, I knew that. Personally when someone says farm that’s all I think of. Anything else to me is just pets and a garden.
  3. And I believe a farm of over a certain size.
  4. Cops know as little or less about gun laws as we do. Of the dozens of cops I asked questions of I either get wrong answers or an out and out “I don’t know “. Each time I pick up a p2p at my barracks I get a different answer from each trooper at the window. It’s become a game with me now.
  5. It's my plan to bring both to the range with me as an experiment. Can you point out the different advantages between my two? They appear to be most similar to the top two pictured (SP1 - AR15 enhanced). But the screw could just be. The entire gun wasn't a kit. It's a basket case of pieces bought from here and there so ya never know. It does. I might add one for spacing.
  6. Sounds pretty logical. I'll throw a washer on the bolt. This is all good news. The bad news is I was just at the range Sunday so the big test will have to wait a few days or at least to the weekend. I'd still like to hear some more theories but I'll certainly let you all know the results. Thanks all!
  7. It's a nice place at the right times. Only it's an hour drive. Inexpensive too.
  8. Easton Fish & Game. What did I buy from you? It's driving me nuts.
  9. Ok. With the grip screw out the hammer catches on the disconnect much easier. Could this have caused it?
  10. That's a good one. Give me 5mins.
  11. I hope you can see these but there is a difference between them. I bought the complete upper from Bushmaster so both are the same make. One is for my 20" and the other is for my 16". The bolt for the 16" is different however. Notice the cuts in the hammer slide. I've equated this to the throw from the pressure being greater in the 20". I assumed it needed more travel.
  12. Thank you. I believe I'm not too far. I think I got something else from you. Maybe my Remington? Anyway I've played with them at the Outdoor Show in PA last year and thought the quality I saw was under rated. If you belong to EFGA I might take you up on that. But I think my quest for an older one without the safety is going to be a challenge.
  13. The springs are correct by all accounts including the posted pictures and video (thanks). I also have my Bushmaster side by side with the homebuild and everything "looks" proper. I can say that compared to the Bushmaster the hammer on the Homebuild needs a hard push to lock into the disconnect whereas the Bushmaster requires very little pressure to do the same. Is this a functional problem or just a quality difference?
  14. As it is now once the trigger is released it will not pull again even with hammer cocked in that cycle.
  15. I've got a dumb situation. I say dumb because I'm sure it has a simple solution but I can't find it. I assembled an AR with a Spikes receiver and a PSA AR15 Fire Control Group from Palmetto Part #7265. The gun fires like a champ. But only once. It cycles properly but will not re-fire unless I switch to safety and then back to Fire each time. The trigger is as frozen in place like the safety is on. Of course it only happens with live fire. It dry fires fine but that's because it doesn't cycle then. I'm sure this is something I did in the assembly, but I don't see it. The other issue is I'm hoping someone knows for certain right off what I did wrong because the nature of Murphyland is I can only tell if the fix worked when at the range and actually firing. I'm at least an hour one way for that. That's a lot of back and forth trying this and trying that. Can anyone help me?
  16. You’re selling them? Pre-safety levers?
  17. I’ve been looking for one of these for a cheap plinker. Only I’d like an older one without the safety lever. Cowboy guns shouldn’t have safety levers.
