Any one ever put eyes on one of those Southern Trading 80% recievers? Are they worth the effort? Is S/T still in business?

Stay as far away from Southern Tradings as you can - Nothing but junk..
Check out the BOI on
http://www.subguns.com and do a search through the archives for Southern Tradings or Earl Jones - The owner.

I notice next to his 80% mg42 rec it now says DISCOUNTINUED , its at the bottom of the rec page right above the legalize weed banner .... which should give a good indicator

I have never bought anything from this guy but have seem more posts of disgruntled buyers that from anyone else on the internet-- Complaints if they were posted on this website would overload the server-- Anyway if he was selling it it was probably a piece of conduit or a piece of square tubing or something like that with Extensive
"" Modification"" instructions-- his banner at the bottom of his page is correct -- the SXXX he smokes enables him to rip off people without a conscience !!

Told you so !!!! and that is only a dribble of what he has done to people !! I saw a whole bunch on complaints about his 80% reciever kits -- Which in turn was a piece of cheap muffler tubing-- that is all--- 5 whole inches ---for $35.00 or something-- Scammers should take courses from him !! Take a look at this-- I can't stop laughing at this guy !!! This is from an old post and is a classic !! He rips people off for their money and look at his excuse; it is almost as poor as his non-existant tubes and workmanship!!!

Well, I guess that I can file a lawsuit against you for slander since your producst have been shipped out!!! I have had 3 deaths in my family you jerk!!!! That is why my shipment are behind!!! I hope you never have the same problem, but if you do, I hope you understand that somethings are beyond a persons control.
I would suggest that anyone sending money to him should first get a check-up from the local psychiatrist, after that send money to Mr. Webb so he can go back to school and learn to spell so we can understand what he is talking about !! :-P :-P :-P

Any one ever see or work with a philly ord. 80% receiver? Is it worth the money and are they heat treated?

Their work is great but no they aren't heat treated and it would be a major job to complete anything they make into a shooting or blank firearm-- Remember that if it will shoot blanks reliably it will shoot real ammunition also Blank guns are the hardest to make function !! They do a good job but you are getting a nice item for your money-- A little heavy but real nice !!
