Now available: http://midwestpx.com/product_info.php?products_id=832 These are designed to load against a closed bolt fully loaded since making ready with the AK47 requires it. Based on reports from testers, owners of Inter Ordnance AK47s may need to "fit" the magazine to the magwell simply the inserting and extracting. This is not due to the modifications made by us but rather tolerance issues between the rifle and the magazine. Testers reported that Inter Ordnance rifles required "fitting" with factory-fresh, unmodified PMAGs.

Final testing is complete. The first dealer shipments are going out on Monday so they'll be in NJ stores by the end of the week. If we have anything left over once dealer orders are processed, they'll be available directly from the webstore. After units consumed in testing, we still have over 500 host magazines to modify so hopefully we'll have enough for everyone.

Ammo is only good if you have people to man the guns to use and those people have to have the will to pull the trigger as well as the training to do it effectively.

It does not. I was screwing around with mine and discovered that the Magpul ACS QD cup fits perfectly however the screw needs to be shortened.

Any lithium lube will do. It's applied to prevent galling the aluminum threads when a steel barrel nut is installed.

Test fire reports are rolling in positive. Tooling is being prepared for high volume production!

Multitasker Series 3. Hands down the best AR multitool currently available.

The Luth is 10.4" to 11.5"

I really like the Luth-AR stock. It uses the same A2/rifle extension as a PRS, comes in at nearly half the weight and a good bit less in cost while still having an adjustable length of pull and cheekweld. It's a very well thought out design and the material selection seems pretty good. From what I can tell, it's a fiberglass-reinforced polymer similar to what Magpul and New Frontier Armory use so it should be pretty durable. For me, the weight is the biggest advantage over the PRS. Ounces add up and can really throw off a rifle's center of balance. SPRs are dual purpose guns and to balance a PRS, you'll want a heavier profile barrel or heavier handguard. But then you've added weight to two (or three) large parts of the rifle which then makes it a little unwieldy at closer ranges. Once you start adding weight to an SPR, you run the danger of turning it into a DMR, IMO. My SPR with an 18" barrel and 14" handguard weighs 7.5lbs without an optic which is pretty darn light. But more importantly, the balance is perfect and the rifle can be driven from target to target inside of 25 yards with ease. Not as easy as one of my SBRs or a 16" carbine but it's not much slower. Side note, we should have more of those either later this week or early next week.

I don't think I could eat people. Not that I'm opposed to it but rather look at the junk most people eat! Garbage in, garbage out... We pay extra for organic meat and produce...I think eating the regular American would be a big step down.

Take a look at Mega Arms .308 barrels. I've had multiple customers contact me after replacing other match barrels to say how happy they were with the performance. I don't think Mega actually makes them in-house but whoever is making them is doing a pretty fine job.

The FFL would have to be careful about doing that because turning a receiver into a rifle is a manufacturing activity and 01 FFLs aren't supposed to engage in manufacturing as a regular business activity. On top of that, as mentioned, excise tax would be due if the FFL manufactures 50 or more firearms per year.

Vortex Sparc?

Good choice of trigger. I've got one in my SPR and it's been a great trigger for the role.

Could have been a situation like what I had at the beginning of the year. ATF was slow to get my 01 renewed and didn't send me a LOA either. My 01 was lapsed for two weeks before the renewed 01 was issued. I had to transfer everything to my 07 to be able to continue business.

Luth-AR ftw!

To me, an SPR is equally capable at 500 yards as it is inside of 50 yards. It's not a DMR and it's not carbine, both of which play to opposite ends of the spectrum of needs. This approach to an SPR makes it sounds like a compromise but I like to think of it as a rifle that's more of a jack of all trades.

I need to get off my duff and get some post sample belt feds built

One of the few places to get real deal nickel boron plating in the firearms industry is WMD Guns. Legitimate nickel boron will not flake or peel with use however electroless nickel plating can and is frequently marketed as nickel boron when it is in fact not. These are the polished full-auto profile BCGs direct from WMD! Order HERE Sale price is valid while supplies last!

Yep. From the pic thread: Shooting FGMM at 100yds, I was drilling out the center of an 8" Shoot 'N C target with relative ease.

I had heard that the new polymer that the M3s are made of don't take dye the same way as the Gen2/MOE line did which is why we haven't seen any non-black M3s yet. But as with most things Magpul, there're lots of rumors out there so it's hard to say what's going to happen.

Ammo gets heavy very quickly. I wouldn't want to move much more than a .50 cal can worth without wheels.

For factory ammo, I grab one box from the case and toss it in an ammo can with the rest of the ammo loose. Add a dessicant pack and close it up. I put a piece of painter's tape on the can and write what's in the can and the date it was closed up. For reloads, I throw in a piece of paper with the load date, load date, etc. instead of a box from the case.

Received notice from a distributor today that colored Gen 2 mags have been discontinued and what is currently in the supply chain is all that's left.
