Re: Red Jacket
I was reading somewhere that the owner of Redjacket had lost his FFL for unaccounted firearms on his books and that they are using someone elses FFL to run the company and the show......one of the things I don't like about the show is how they present things.... they built a full auto M2 50 cal .......

Re: Now this takes balls
for the most part yes they have software that looks for prohibitied items but it still takes someone looking at the auctions to decide it's prohibited.... some slip through so they also depend of self policing.... other ebayer's reporting an item so it gets trashed.... some sellers will do it to oth...

Re: mp3 bipod
While your at it why not shorten the shroud length add a rail on top of the feed cover for
a reddot?
I have thought about this with a 53 kit...... but a war time 42 I'd keep whole.....
"The bipod kind of stinks and its heavy. . . . "
I'm guessing you don't own a 1919A6........

Bob, I have no interest in getting into this with you, I don't know you and you don't know me, plus I really don't care. Just to let other people on the forum know, that an approval for one person is not an approval for everyone. This is directly from an ATF tech agent! Maybe he didn't know what he...
