@GoCRAZY 700 to 900 for a 5.56 pistol is average. We have 3 in stock priced at 850.

Alrighty. Thanks for the help!

No prob. If you ever find yourself in missouri needing a gunsmith, hit me up.

Machining raw forgings is more tricky than most people think. There are no flat planes of reference so you have to locate the "nub" on the left side where the mag release goes to zero your lower

"Those are actually .223 Remington rounds"

@Ironman Yes, they are .223

@Ironman its brand new

So yeah $850 is still more than $700 for a non fired weapon

as long as quality is good its fine

60c per round of 5.56 looks like prices are going down. I paid 75c per round a week ago

@HUNTER4639 Thanks, but the funny thing is, I wouldn't even consider myself *that* knowledgeable, lol

Got the sexy beast

Gonna get wood grips and new d spring

Guns, to me, are like hotrodding and machining: I know just enough that I don't know shit

same

So US law dictates that for something to be considered a firearm it has to be designed after 1898 and have a self contained cartridge (Aka. a bullet). So you can own a reproduction model of a blackpowder gun designed before 1898 and it aint considered a firearm legally and Cabellas sells 1858 Remington revolver reproduction for 270 dollars 😄

me who's trying to get a gatling gun: 👀

You can actually buy a gatling gun or make one yourself

its totally legal

since they are hand cranked they are not considered machine guns.

<:thinking:726878987837636698>

*procedes to make one out of aks like that guy on youtube*

We need to buy a used FTMV and mount a gatling gun to the back and drive through portland and seattle

and to mkae the gun fire quicker mount a bunch of gears to the back of the truck that fires the gun multiple times a rotation

or that may be illegal. I would guess not because it aint illegal to fire a gun with a string and its kinda the same thing.

In case you guys missed it, the ATF issued
a cease and desist to Q for their Honey Badger AR pistol. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gCpUdKf9TmY

@Winnie37a is that Beretta 82 or 84

I saw thanks sorus

ATF the fun police

ikr

Yup. That is what you call a slippery slope

@Odb we still have our 5.56 listed at 65c a rround. Still selling like hotcakes

@Ironman since you work with guns, I assume you might know a lot about scopes. Do you have a recommendation for a 1-10 scope at or under $1000 ish. I really like the size/style of the “Vortex Razor HD Gen III 1-10x24 Riflescope” but i’d have to cut my left nut off and sell it to science to afford that.

Scopes are like cars. Sometimes you can get good results on a budget, but the rule of thumb is the more you spend, the better it is. What is the aperture size? 30, 40, or 50?

@Ironman I know nothing about scopes. I’ve watched about 2hours of youtube videos tonight but thats about it. 1-10 zoom is fine for me. Its for a DDM4V7 pro 5.56 rifle, 600 yards is enough for me

This scope is ridiculously priced but I really like the size.

Wow thats a nice optic. I agree its a bit pricey. We have a bushnell on our shelf for 499. Its a 3-9 x 40. Nice for hunting but I wouldnt use it for competition. I use a cheap Osprey 4x fixed for 149. Holds tight groups

I prefer fixed zoom on my optics. The variable zoom usually causes a slight parallax error from the smallest to largest zoom settings. Most competition shooters also use fixed optics.
