The last I checked, Sportsman's Warehouse still had PMC XTAC M855 in 1k lots still available for $350 or so.

I'm one for staking the bolts lengthwise, down the centerline of the key instead of the more common side to side approach.

Still not as cheap overall as steel ammo.

There no need for alignment marks on the gas key. AR15 DGI gas keys are all similar and it's not a matter if they need or not need staking, it's just that some assemblers/companies think staking of the gas key isn't necessary.

Aren't those guns presents for yourself?

Staking is only effective if the material is pushed into the screw or vice versa. As far as I can tell from those pics, they did a half assed job.

Pauly has a .410 in stock!

IMHO, an outright ban on domestically manufactured semi-auto rifles would be rather slim since so there many people involved in the supply chain. The monetary contribution to the economy, providing jobs to thousands etc. would be something the anti's wouldn''t dare take on in this poor economy. However, I think there is a good chance they might completely ban imports like the Saigas, VEPRs, WSARs etc. with little flak. And I think that, the Repubs/NRA just might let that slide in order to protect the domestic manufacturers.

Paul still has lowers at a resonable price. I got 2 Spikes stripped lowers from him yeaterday.

That will never work and they know it, but will use the it to gain some concessions from the Republicans.

You and me and many others bro!

Congrats! You've been utilized!

You can ding me for "hand writing". It should be a single word, not two.

What is that gun (with the tubular stock) on the left?

Since we are typing and not hand writing....

There are no uppers or lowers as well.

I store mine with a round in the pipe which may not be comfortable to some.

I've found a way around this. I use shells that have a roll crimp and I fill the cavity with surfboard epoxy (which sets hard and brittle). To help it along, I've also cut a + in the epoxy plug with a dremel cuttig disc. You'll only need to load the top 3 rounds with these and fill up the rest with regular shells.

vladtepes is right. Saiga 12's were built to run full power buck and slug loads. In response to the US market, the new VEPR 12 will run low brass target loads reliably right of the box and predictably, it is more recoil heavy when shooting full power or magnum loads. It has 5 gas ports to the Saiga 12's 3-4 ports.

Linear compensators would be your ticket. Troy Claymore, Noveske Flaming pig, Dpms Levang etc.

The Pittsburgh school is has a 2-3yr waiting list.

It isn't "active' cammo. I think it is a special method of printing photo quality images onto cloth.

Yeah man! Military grade and rated for full auto probably.

Real M4's are tuned for full auto at a certain RPM, so maybe that's why?

Excellent Scrap! They are my local store!
