Re: Logged off every time I come back

There are privacy settings on phones & browsers that could impact this, like Apple's Private Relay VPN-like setting. Browsing from my phone, I have to login every time I come to the site. Or sometimes even multiple times per visit. Newer forum software like whatever they run on sites like HKPro ...

Re: Question for Labradar Owners

You don't need the inertia trigger for suppressed on the Labradar - or at least I have never needed it. I've never missed a shot from suppressed, only from when the unit twists on the tripod head from muzzle blast. But as I said, if I was buying today, I'd probably go Garmin. But I had the Labradar ...

Re: Having to sift through a dead man's gun stuff

I have a spreadsheet with actual guns & values (more for insurance than estate planning). I've told the wife where I keep that list and left a "when I'm dead" letter on top of the important paper stack in the safe that includes all the important details. She could look at it any time s...

Re: Question for Labradar Owners

I have a Labradar and have never used the Garmin. If you're a math/data nerd you might like the Labradar. It doesn't just give you the readings at those set points but also provides the full data series for each shot. So if you really want to analyze, you can kind of go crazy with the data, filter o...

Re: Engraving ambiguity for Form1

I’ve got a buddy who does engraving. He’s near I-17/Greenway. Let me know if you want his contact info. I’ll give Wright another shot. I’m going to be out of town for a bit for work so if they let me leave my stuff, hopefully that should work. But if that doesn’t work out and your buddy works on Sa...

Re: Engraving ambiguity for Form1

I haven't collected any stamps for awhile. Guess I thought "Joe Blow, Phoenix AZ" was always in 4h in the past. At any rate, guess I'll have to drop off my stuff at Wright. My schedule and their availability have just not been aligned. Every time I've had time on a Monday & called they...

Re: Engraving ambiguity for Form1

You are absolutely legally required to engrave the new manufacturer information on the receiver (e.g. your name and location...whatever is listed in Box 3a of your approved Form 1). On my recently approved Form1s, box 3a is blank. 3b, d, e, f have my personal info. Boxes 4a, d, g have the original ...

Re: Engraving ambiguity for Form1

My recent experience is identical to yours, although my approvals were a few days, not minutes... This is different from completely manufacturing from an unmarked 80% lower or whatever, where you'd have to put your name/marking in box 4a . In the paper Form1 days, you'd put your marking in box 4h, t...

Engraving ambiguity for Form1

I've always been of the opinion that it's not that big of a deal to engrave a receiver so just do it to eliminate the risk that it gets challenged by an overzealous cop or AFT agent. (Even though I have literally never been challenged or asked for paperwork anywhere ever.) I felt that the original i...

Re: Newest build

I always wanted an M60, but transferable prices are totally insane. I have time behind a 1919, but wasn't impressed with its ability to actually hit a target.

I'm waiting on an MM21E to hopefully scratch my .30 beltfed itch.

Re: NEW AMMUNITION PLANT TO OPEN IN TEXAS

Crooks suck. At least component availability is back up, but to be honest, at the “new normal” prices I’m starting to question the economics of reloading some calibers. I just loaded 3k 147gr 9mm - $350 for the projectiles from Precision Delta and $240 for primers made me think this isn’t worth my t...

Re: Wanting to buy machine guns, where to go?

I'm aware of Sturm, and I have several MGs already, uzi, micro uzi, 2 sterlings, 2 thompsons, mac10, fnc, 2 m16s, mp5k, I was just looking at any local places that may stock some inventory. I'm not looking to handle MGs, I'm looking to buy more lol If you already have a collection, you probably kno...
