This is one of the "deals" where it's more about the availability than the price. $26 isn't the worst I've ever seen it, especially at a per box price vs case bulk price, but 3yrs ago it could be had for $22 for reference. Buy four boxes and you won't even get hammered by shipping. Anyway, here is t...

Here is some from PSA @ $23/box... I didn't look into shipping costs.

I've seen the prices on all mags go nuts, but if your example is true (seller actually sent payment) then that is just pure insanity.

Also, with me looking primarily for 10 round magazines, I'm hoping to avoid the top level inflation (err gouging) brought on with the 20 and 30 round mags.

WTB: .308 / 7.62x51mm Mags for DPMS style AR10 / LR308

10 rounders are fine; I'm in Kalifornia. If you have larger capacity, you must pop off the lower plate and sell as a "parts kit" then I block it off prior to reassembling.

IMHO, EA restricted sales of certain ammo for a reason & I would respect that. If you could sell to someone they would have then that is fine. Everything else is fair game for all comers & at whatever price they're willing to pay. Now that is an interesting take that I had not thought of. But now t...

Maybe I wasn't clear, but I wouldn't sell every round I own of the 5.7 platform. But say a guy had 5 boxes of pre-T6; would it be that crazy to sell one of them for enough money to pay back what the original cost of purchase was? And not just specialty rounds either. If you bought cases of ss197 at ...

Even if you had no intention of selling, at what price point do you go ahead and "cash out"? I see the T6, SS198 , and other rounds going through the roof and my ethics are waning.

Ahem... PM Sent

You guys never cease to amaze me... custom mod/build flashlights!

Where on earth is anyone finding any AR based firearm right now? Shit, I can't even find parts!

I've had that set up on back order from Exile Machine for 5 months now, though it was a group buy. So jealous right now! I decided to build this gun one day, ordered all the parts and had them all in my grubby little hands in 3 days. Since then I have heard from other people that the G33 has been o...

I can across this mount "Tower Mounted Light" style and wondered what your thoughts were. (more on the mount type than the surefire light in the ad).

If you look around, there have been a couple of people who did get 18" barrels from Hi-Desert Dog and reported increased velocities. The concern with the 20" would be the increased velocity requiring changes to the bolt/springs. But now that EA offers the heavier rate reducer maybe those concerns co...

For the California Market, we're not allowed to have a threaded barrel. IIRC, this can be overcome by permanently attaching a comp or even a cap. So if you go threaded, make sure you offer a cap, comp, or even nonthreaded opton.

What are some recommendations for flashlights to put in the FS2000 handguard? Ideally a flashlight that you can replace the batteries via removing the head/lens.

Subscribed! Eager to hear and see more.

OK, OK...

I'm pretty sure I talked to these guys and they are/were Critical Dimensions, or the distributor for CD... something like that.

That is a pretty interesting idea. Right now, I'm sticking with my Rem-3, but if I were to switch it out for something else, I'd consider one of these.

Here are some pics, specifically with a G3... Others have used all kinds of lights and remote switches, but I kind of like the fact that this is all internal. http://img214.imageshack.us/img214/8418/fs2kg3l1.jpg http://img705.imageshack.us/img705/5598/fs2kg3l2.jpg http://img703.imageshack.us/img703/...

Burt, While I have a flashlight guy here, can I ask you what a good replacement for the Surefire G3 led would be? The purpose would be to mount it inside a FS2000 handguard (I'd post a link/pic, but I'm on my Driod). That model was popular because of the size and that you could replace batteries by ...

Is it bad that one year when my wife sauntered out in a French Maid costume, that I told her my fantasy was that she actually clean the house?

I just want throw a shout out to all those that take the time to make and post these videos. It's much appreciated.

Why did I think this would be about releasing a SBD Fart?

Let's give this a bump for any new members, old members that missed it, or anyone that has recently switched to something new.

Ok guys, I finally caught this episode. Let me clear a couple things up that have been asked: 1) Why not use a rifle, ect... - The guy came in and said he needed a pistol for competition that was good for 100 yards plus. 2) Cost - after bartering, the cost came to $3500 and included the FSN, trigger...

No need to be sorry - you can ASK for any price you want...

I just went to a gun show today and checked at a couple tables for the going rate 2000 rnds; I'll PM you with the number so you can compare.

Hope you overcome whatever your emergency is.

Sounds like fun!

Wow, timely post... I just saw one of these at a shooting fair today. Also, got to shoot the new 10-22 takedown - nice little rifle. Throwing a 10/22 in one of those chassis would be so cool & fun!

You have to remove the rear sight to replace it with a mount upon which you mount the Burris MRD. Also, you have to use Tactical Search. Seriously, though.

My wife recently started making things out of beads and string.

Wow, who knew? That is an interesting set up there for sure.

Well the real problem is the lack of sponsor banners up there, not the spacing. Anyone got numbers on how many sponsors where here, say 4 years ago, vs today?

I was hoping the "what's next" in the title meant you were making more and looking for suggestions on the next firearm.

I vote FS2000 if you change your mind.

OK, I just bid silently - that way none of you know what I put down. j/k


Best of Luck Charles!

That was the most idiotic "grouping of like weapons" I've seen on the show. AUG and P/PS90? OK. Throw in a BAR, and talk as if all will be full auto, but present a PS90 and a semi auto AUG and I'm like WTF?

I sent mine in because I couldn't get it to work right. They didn't fix it. Don't think it is worth it IMHO So how exactly did this go down? You sent it in with X problem and they just looked at it, sent it back, and said "oh well"? Did they deny there was a problem or could they not replicate it?

Welcome to the forum.

There are several of us who want(ed) one as well. A thread a few posts down shows that FN USA Parts sells them for $690. Yes $690.

UPDATE? Anyone get some?

Hello?

You guys amaze me. Nice work.

I wanted to be able to keep my original slide in its original configuration, AND have a second slide custom fitted with a red-dot and pimped out by Jay.

OUCH!

How ridiculous is that? The whole friggen gun can be had for $1K.

Wow, I just did a Google search for a slide and it pointed right back home.

I want one just so I can get a custom cover from Jay (custom graphics and a red-dot), but be able to swap it right out with the original.

1) Welcome to the Forum.

2) Yes the barrel moves (but 15%?).

3) Search button is your friend.

4) There is a PS90 section right below the FiveSeveN section you posted in.

My mind is running with ideas right now...

Quick question - Does the "Red" color come out an orange/salmon color or is it my screen/your camera?

Where are they on the site? Even if sold out, I'd still like to check them out.

Anyone geeked to see "The Immortals"? I think I'm going to bite.

You guys honestly think that the trigger "isn't that bad to begin with"? Maybe I just got a lemon, but my FSN had the worst factory trigger I've ever owned. Especially for a $1K gun.

Big +1 for the EA trigger job.
