damn. all mags are almost sold out everywhere.
some sites are selling them for $20 now 12/18/2012 11:41:36 PM |

it'll be ok. no one had any problem getting >10 rd mags during the '94 ban. they'll cost a little more, but there are a bajillion of them out there.

Don't accept ANY weapons ban is imminent! CALL your Senators and express your concern for our 2nd Amendment rights. Don't let the liberal media influence the masses with a knee-jerk gun ban. Remember, CT was already an AWB state - legislation will NOT influence the way bad people do bad things.
U.S. Capitol Switchboard: (202) 224-3121
If you don't want to call them, here are NC's Senator web forms for contact:

they know they're called "magazines", but they say "clips" because that's what most non-gun folks know them as." |
You sure you're not giving them too much credit?
I think maybe some of their staffers who write the bills might know what they're doing, but I'm not so sure about the actual reps.
Actually, I think I have yet to meet even one anti-gun person who knew anything more than precisely dick about guns.

CMP South store is there. you can go pick out a Garand if you join one of the CMP affiliated clubs, which can be done online.
yes, i think by now they actually do know how stupid their legislation is. a politician has one goal: to stay in office. feinstein is pandering to the CA voters. she is a little extra fucked up because she was the one who found Harvey Milk with his melon split open by two hollow points.

Some interesting detail's about Feinstein's new AWB suggestion here:
http://www.pbs.org/newshour/bb/politics/july-dec12/feinstein_12-17.html
I'm pretty sure she has no idea what she is talking about during the entire interview. When she was growing up they were probably still using muskets.
Quote : | "Grandfathered weapons that people already have, subject those weapons either to licensing or to a trigger lock, and spell out those grandfathered weapons, which would be over 900 in the bill, so nobody can say, oh, we took our -- their hunting weapon away.
Then I would be able to say, here's your hunting weapon. It's specifically exempted in the bill." |
Quote : | "So it's the big clip, drum or strip that is also banned from sale, manufacture, importation, transfer. So it's the clip that enables you to have the firepower.
And I gather this particular Bushmaster, you can actually sort of dial down the ease with which you pull the trigger and its frequency. So you can just pump those bullets out in a very few seconds." |

I've always found the "clip" capacity debate humorous. I think those who push to limit magazine capacity have never seen how fast even a beginner can swap mags. 12/19/2012 2:02:38 AM |

^^ true but in a shoot out situation it's the only vulnerability to exploit to make a counter attack (assuming you don't have a weapon yourself). that or if the gun jams. 12/19/2012 8:45:21 AM |

How many of these tragedies end up in a shoot out? Oh yeah...kids and teachers don't carry guns. There's no shoot out. That's where a lot of people (not saying you, I'm talking about the gun control idiots) don't get it. Yeah, semiautos with high capacity mags are the fastest option but when your target isn't shooting back then a couple of seconds lost to reloading aren't going to matter. 12/19/2012 9:42:35 AM |

I'm building my first AR right now. I bought a kit from Double Star and I bought a spikes lower from a friend of mine. The only thing I don't have are magazines and now all this AWB bullshit is going down. I'm a reservist with Coast Guard Deployable Ops and my goal was to have a rifle that I could practice with on my own time to maintain my quals when we hit the range.
Is there anyone here that would be interested in selling me a mag or two? My rifle is useless without them. I've been hitting up all the gun shops and there is absolutely nothing in stock 12/19/2012 11:48:40 AM |

I have a friend looking to build himself an AR-15 with longer range accuracy in mind. He specifically wants a 20" barrel. He mentioned wanting a full upper, and is planning to build up the lower as a home project. Price range will be around 1-1.2k. Any suggestions as to where to look? Is that price even realistic?

They are going to need to ban all weapons. Even a novice w/ a scoped .308 that billy bob mouth breather bought from Wal-Mart could do some serious damage; pick off about 20, and then the vast majority of first responders from a couple of hundred yards before they could formulate a plan. 12/19/2012 9:07:44 PM |
baonest All American 47902 Posts user info edit post |
you can easily build your own for $1000-1200
heck your basic 16" can run ~550-600 if you look in the right places.
this was just for sale tonight. out of stock. http://www.jsesurplus.com/RockRiverArms24VarmintEOPCompleteUpperHalfwithGasBlockand18.aspx 12/19/2012 9:13:54 PM |

The 1-1.2k figure was for the entire gun he said, not just the upper. My mistake.
On the other hand - those rainier arms uppers are damn nice.
