Smoozing it is a wonderful talent that can pay off handsomely. Hope they give you a call. I got recruited right out of the Canadian Airforce for a company that repairs FLIR Safire I, II and IIIs, Ultra 7500 - 8500 FLIRs

has alot of disadvantages and enemy soldires can take out those easily if they are informed about it and stay alert :roll: That as well... but the biggest source of torment is the fact that the gun involved is a WW2 vintage Sturmgewehr that is at least 60 years old... Not sure if they are vintage: ...

Should have added " Redneck " or " Ghetto " or a combination of the two " Redneck from the Ghetto "

Not intended as a racial slur to anyone, just carrying on from the " posts " on the forum.

Book Marking Threads

Any chance that there is a mod so that a memeber can bookmark a thread through a tool in the app. I realize one can book mark the page using the browser, but would be benificial if we could book mark a favorite thread that resides in our profile.

Just a thought ....

I watched the video and the misfires seem likely to be caused a sequencing issue. Are you using a slip ring assembly at all for a timing sequence? Or is a possibly a regulator problem?

Still, one heck of a wicked looking gat!

I am impressed at the quality of workmanship and igenuity!

Kudos

Nothing wrong with SKSs at all, I quite like them, but let's face it, can you convert an AK from .223 to 9mm, .22 and .357 maximum is an hour? AKs are quite simple to build, besides 922r (I think) parts, bolts and gas blocks, any competent machinist can make one quite easily. ARs however aren't tha...

Hahaha, with the current crisis the way it is, you'd be mad not to start selling 80% and stripped AR lowers. And let's face it, who doesn't want a $20k CNC setup in a few years. And expect a visit sometime next year, same goes for you Velocity3x AR lowers are restricted items in Canada, considered ...

Okay, I am playing catchup with all this information. In the first shockwave file with the equalization hole, would there be any benifit to adding a light weight spring in the pilot area behind the piston to ensure quicker resealing? Great illustrations! Sorry about the bump had to ask the question ...
