Very cool. :tu It must suck though to live in a state like NJ or CA that has those bulls--t laws.

I found a stripped lower I forgot I had when looking a through packed box of reloading equipment. I scrounged up an old stock....added one DPMS parts kit and now I have another complete lower in search of a upper. HMMMM.....now....what upper?

Thanks Dan I'm a believer of the trijicons now.

Decided to learn how to build my own AK's this year. Here are my first two attempts. It is challenging to keep both 922r compliant and ban compliant (NY kept the failed federal ban as a state ban), but enough US parts and pre-ban mags are available.

http://i317.photobucket.com/albums/m...n/IMG_0066.jpg

This here is a Hungarian AMD-65 on a NODAK Spud NDS-3 receiver. Since the folding stock an AMD-65 comes with is illegal here in NY, I opted for a US made stock. So for those of you interested, the compliance parts are the trigger, hammer, sear, buttstock, pistol grip and receiver. the barrel is a converted Romanian.

http://i317.photobucket.com/albums/m...n/IMG_0068.jpg

Just finished this today. Bulgarian AK-74 on a NODAK Spud NDS-2 receiver. It turned out rather nicely, I think. Compliance parts for this one are trigger, hammer, sear, barrel, receiver, and pistol grip.

Next up is an Egyptian Maadi.

Hey Greg is there any version of THIS we can have in CA?
Ammo prices are great, do you know much about this round? I spent some time poking around online and it looks like the 5.45x39 ballistics are very similar to the 5.56. What do you or others know?

I love my AR in 5.56 but it a little expensive to run these days.

Is that something just CA has to do because of the gun laws there?

I thought it was a federal requirement, but I might be mistaken.

This is a web pic, but it's close to my new project:
http://www.aotactical.com/gallery/StagSuperV6.jpg

It's a Stag Model 6H upper, mine will be mounted on a Spike's Tactical lower (part of a group buy, I think the final tally was 144 lowers, long live the second ammendment!), with a Bushnell 4-12x40 mounted on a Burris PEPR. Buttstock will be whatever's cheap for now, Magpul PRS when I get some more cash.

My father hasn't touched a firearm since he was in the Coast Guard 40 years ago. He finally decided to come out with me to meet up with some friends at the range this past Saturday. He said he was surprised at how much fun he had and I hope this is something we can do together every once in a while now. :)

Shooting and hunting is one of the best things to do with your dad or son. :tu

A few years ago for Dad's weekend at college, I took my dad shooting. The funniest part about it is typically it's the father who takes the son shooting. My dad never grew up with guns and only owned a .22 as an adult for the random gopher.

Either way, the first time we went shooting was when I took him. Seeing the smile on his face when he touched off a 30 round mag from an AR was about as priceless as it gets :r

It's definitely a thing to try to continue doing. :tu

I do not believe you are mistaken. And the dealer has to keep the record of sale for 20 years I believe. And if the dealer closes up shop before that time period, they have to give all of their records of sale to the government so that they can "store them in a safe place."
