Nope..! But you will definitely ruin every other 1911 you get thereafter..!! LOL! (Well, unless its another custom / semi-custom!) :girlwacko:

Well, prior to the current "panic" climate, you could definitely build a bare bones AR for around 700 give or take, maybe even less if you also sourced pre-loved parts on the forum. Parts are extremely difficult to find now for pre-panic prices unfortunately. Regardless, they can still be found; you just have to be patient and diligent. Good luck man!

The FS2K uses AR mags... I have these same ones and they work just fine in mine.

In stock count says 33 left! Go get 'em. I have some and they work just fine. http://www.manventureoutpost.com/products/FNH-USA-Inc-3486010020-FS2000-Mag-5.56%7B47%7D.223-10rdSteel-Bk.html

You've made the right choice wink. Due to my innate ability to break anything I try to craft, I went with a fully assembled upper on my first build. Fully assembled meaning the barrel, upper received, gas block and tube were already installed along w/ the muzzle brake already pinned. I did end up changing the dust cover and added the handguard, but other than that, the other parts of the upper came to me assembled. For the lower, I started w/ a fully stripped one and built it from scratch with help from a friend and advice here on the forums. There's also great videos on youtube on full AR assemblies. STUDY THEM MY FRIEND! It'll be a great help. As far as searching for parts, thats the difficult part. Most everything is out of stock right now so you'll have to be patient and keep scanning the sites and this forum for things to come up for sale. As for where to start, I say check out Bravo Company. I went w/ one of their completed uppers and do not regret it one bit. There's a reason why none of their stuff is ever in stock! There are some parts for sale right now over in the for sale forum... take a look. Good luck w/ whatever you decide to do. Like I said, you wont regret it. May be overwhelming at first but I think you'll be fine. For this second build, I'm planning on assembling the upper myself (with help of course).. wish me luck.....

OMG. I've always in life wanted an SV Infinity. I even bought an airsoft version because it was the closest I could get at the time...! How much was that one, if you don't mind me asking? Did you custom order through SV?

LOL! Same here. Can you put me on the list for your other one? =P

I'll chime in and say definitely build your own AR. My first one was also hand built and I can barely change a light bulb without breaking something. =) You'll be fine. It'll definitely feel more "yours" and you'll learn a lot about it as well. I ended up spending more $ building but I went and splurged on higher end parts. Thats the beauty of it; you make it totally your own. Go for it..! I'm currently gathering parts for a 2nd build..

Great transaction w/ Bob. Shipped out promptly and packaged very well. Thank you sir..!

Just put in an order w/ Midway last night. They definitely have my support.

Lalo- Appreciate the info man..! I just bought a set of files from Amazon in anticipation of the build. Wish me luck. This will be my 2nd build but my 1st with these poly lowers. And definitely don't be intimidated.. I'm a total r3tard when it comes to crafts and handy work but built my first AR just fine. Definitely a rewarding experience vs buying a completed one..!

Big ups to Nick..! Great dude to deal with. Thanks buddy!

Highly recommend Paul from Arms N Ammo. He permanently modified a number of mags for me. Good work.

Looks great guys. Can you give a little more detail on the fitment issues and where exactly you had to adjust? I'm looking to use one of these lowers for a build. Would be very helpful. Thanks..!

Hi Ty, Any estimate on when the lowers w/ LPK will be available again?

Thought I'd share some t-shirts I saw from cafe press. Disclaimer - I am not affiliated with this site or shirt maker. Just thought it was awesome. Will be picking them up for myself.. http://www.cafepress.com/mf/34905288/color-molon-labe_tshirt http://www.cafepress.com/mf/55613390/doubletap_tshirt

At least a step in the right direction... http://www.thetruthaboutguns.com/2013/02/foghorn/ny-supreme-court-safe-act-injunction-unless-state-can-prove-law-constitutional/

I think it's the prongs which give the FSC the "flash suppression" ability, even though its not significant enough to be classified as such. I agree that it's probably more for looks than function. Interested to hear more about this..

There's another thread in the AR forum regarding "legal" muzzle devices in general but I'm curious about everyone's thoughts on the PWS FSC devices specifically. PWS advertises them as "Flash Suppressing Compensators" (FSC) but describes them as being - "All of the FSC Series muzzle devices have been classified as a non-flash suppressing device by the BATFE, thus removing any restriction from assault weapon ban states or provinces. A copy of this document is available upon request or on our website at www.primaryweapons.com." They also provide letters from the ATF stating their non-flash suppressing attributes - http://primaryweapons.com/store/pc/documents/ATF_FSC556.pdf http://primaryweapons.com/store/pc/documents/ATF_30_47_hr.pdf With all this documentation in hand, has it already been established that the FSC devices are considered "not evil" in NJ? Has anyone seen them used on an AR style platform here? Judging from these pictures, it appears to terminate to an opening that is the size of the caliber (like a muzzle brake) but has the additional "prongs" afterwards - Just curious if anyone has had experiences with these and your thoughts.. :girlwacko:

Ah. Toronto. My wife is from Scarborough and we go back every few months to visit family and EAT. Chinese food there beats NYC Chinatown any day of the week..!

Happy Year of the Snake! Just had dinner at Royal Seafood in Woodbridge. I think they recently got a new chef. Food is great.

Very nice man. I have one of the original Western Arms SV Infinity Hybrids. As far as I'm aware, I might be one of the only people in the world who still has one in LNIB condition.. heh. Would love to own a 'real' SV race gun but price is insane.

This guy pretty much nails it...

I'm still reading this Pizza Bob.. =] Just wanted to give a quick update. I called FNUSA again this morning and was again told that the muzzle device by their design a is muzzle brake and not a hider. I asked again a few different times (just to be sure my question wasn't misunderstood) and got told off... Great customer service.. To be fair, maybe they're getting tired of being asked constantly. Anyway, I'll give all an update with what happens. Appreciate everyone for their feedback and insight. If anything, I hope this generated some meaningful discussion... Or not.. Cheers.
