what for links? the UK 59 might be a better idea for you. it is available from centerfire cheap, and there is a build doctrine in progress. an entirely different animal, but feasable. the traditional conversions to 54R are the 1919 (done in wartime by several nations, and in 303 brit by several, as ...

omega tells me that the MG 13 came in with slag heaps. the ATF was unhappy with the original demil, and made the importer recut them, so little in the way of receiver available. that being said, i did see a nearly complete in a post someone else gave

good luck in your search.

i bought a case from dan's ammo in pennsylvania a few years ago. shot it in a mauser with good results. some say the primers are hard. some say the brass is brittle. i have no experience like this. the ecuadoran is heavy ball.

the 13 already has a floating firing pin. omega sold them 3-4 years ago in small numbers. would be an easy semi-build, i suppose.

so i was inventorying the stash last night. getting it into one pile took me about 2 hours. i had it all over the house, and it was putting some serious strain on the floors. right now it looks like about 50K rounds, with a current value of 6.5K$, against about 2.5K$ invested. about 25% of it is 8mm...

use an ER-70S if MIG, a similar designation if TIG, an E-6011 or E7014 if SMAW, and forget about the SS wire. SS won't take park or blue.

so cut the buttstock off and call it a very heavy pistol. no US parts requirement. it's legal to do, if eccentric. no limit on handgun barrel length or weight by federal statute.

atf has an opinion letter out on selling a homemade receivered gun. it's on a link in their webpage. you can do it, but they are opining that you must mark with your name, city, and state, and a unique serial, as all liscensed manufacturers do. this is an opinion in which they suppose you are a manu...

i wonder how the nazi's got around to making 30 nato barrels, since the 30 nato didn't come into being until about 1950?

maybe it was the boys from brazil?
