I find it interesting and apauling (sp) when people here refer to their God Given Right to Firearms, Protected by the 2nd Amendment of the CONstitiution. But think that that right stops if they don't think some other people shouldn't have them. That's called Hypocratic as far as I can see. Even a Fe...

I took the semi pictured above to the Medina Gun Show for others to see. The reviews from the partrons were excelent. As a bonus I got to meet Mr Freeman from Painsville Ohio who patented the first semi MG34 design. A very nice gentleman who seemed inpressed with the trigger pull, and receiver secti...

I thought Marstar could sell you parts kits. We have trouble with them for parts kits because of our Form 6 ATF requirements. I seem to recollect that there is a Semi VZ-58 available in Canada that is built with an origional Auto receiver and semi internals. But I am probably wrong. For some reason ...

Claven, In the picture posted the mismatched lines are due to the rear section being slightly canted. Often the bolt channels were not machined perfectly square with the receiver body. I believe that there was a tolerance in angular alignment of the bolt channel. I haven't found two exactly the same...

While I agree we need to put our money and support into one organization that CAN make a difference. The NRA's track record doesn't reflect our major line of thinking, well at least mine. The NRA is more interested in the duck hunters than anyone else. If we decide to financialy support them in orde...

That isn't someones build unless it's a post sample. Notice the full auto bolt?

I wonder why they didn't remove the Grip Stick or Charging Handle...

Otherwise nicely done. Some verbal audio would have been a plus..

Just out of curiousity. If it bans the "TRANSFER" of said weapon, does that include the new manufacturer? Building one for oneself is not transfering.

Thank you!! Yes I did the welding too, I use a lincoln TIG/Stick 175 for most of my welding. The pulser attachment is really a great investment when doing either aluminum or thin steel. Some day I'll get the water cooled torch head. I did bevel the areas for weld, it varries for about .03" to .08" d...

question, this may of been discussed early on, but may have been lost. How are you milling the bolt slot (correct term ?) where the bolt rides? Yours looks so cleanly done compaired to....well, you know who. And have you considered going all the way and making a complete receiver and getting approv...

I don't know, if this becomes really popular, you might just see a whole lot of gravel pits closed by the ATF, pending a new liscense catagory. And then they are going to go house to house and confinscate all gravel driveways. It may actualy become a feloney to stop on an exhisting gravel road to pi...
