I would buy a BREN in 7.62x39 if stocks become available. That would make a cool SBR.

ATF has a tendency to back themselves into corners with all of their bullshit, so accidentally creating a 922r loophole via refinishing wouldn't surprise me. From what my IOI said, this is almost verbatim: "If someone brings you a gun and you cerakote it, that's gunsmithing, no 07 required, just an 01. If you take in a used gun on trade or buy it, and you refinish it without it leaving your bound book, that's manufacturing, 07 required. If another dealer sends you one they took in on trade, or just a store stock gun, and you refinish it, it's gunsmithing." Basically, he clarified that if I own a gun and do a manufacturing process on it, I've manufactured it. Here's where it get's a bit complicated on the subject of tooling mark examiners. When I Cerakote a gun part, I destroy visible tooling marks all the time. I'm not talking about covering them, I blast each part with Aluminum Oxide and tooling marks go away. On a very tiny level, I even reshape some parts. (example, Barrels fluted by wilson combat will slice you open, I can dull those edges with AO blasting) Then, since Cerakote, Case Hardening, Nitriding, etc etc etc, have properties other than asthetics, they can actually affect function and/or properties of the base material, you've done more than change aesthetics. Granted, I don't have any of this in writing, but according to what my IOI told me, if I was to buy Scorpions and microslick parts of it, I've manufactured that firearm and it has to go in my manufacturing log. I have no idea how that translate to 922 compliance etc, but I suspect the ATF would not want to give an opinion on it. |

You're destroying the tooling marks by refinishing it, and you're having to add it to your manufacturing log, there really isn't much apparently stopping you from stamping "US" on the side of it and making it a compliant part via refinishing it. |

This looks awesome but... It's CZ so it'll come in tiny numbers relative to demand... The small number will turn it into another KSG where for a couple of years a 1k gun will be 2k plus... Never understood why there aren't more pistol caliber carbines on the market that don't look like smashed assholes and cost over 2k. Outside of the Hipoint and the Keltecs, there really isn't much of anything other than leverguns and AR pistol caliber guns until you get to MP5 clone territory.

I had chance to shoot semi-auto UZI and Scorpion side by side - UZI just sucks and i didnt even bother to shoot through the whole mag. EVO3 on the other hand with army of poppers and plates facing you means you will get broke on ammo. Its just so much fun. And first generation škorpion is fun too. |

[slight hijack] Bohem, What are the gun laws like in Czech Republic? Can you guys own the select fire version? Just curious. [/slight hijack] View Quote Wikipedia summs it pretty well: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gun_politics_in_the_Czech_Republic In short: Registration, licencing, shall-issue ccw, no gaps in gun categorization (firearm is either long or short, no SBR nonsence), guns legal in schools. Interestingly, semi-auto Scorpion Evo 3 is "selfloading pistol" while semi auto UZI or Sa26 (7,62x25mm) are "selfloading rifle". Full-autos are "may-issue" for collecting purposes only, not unobtainable, but its quite hard to argument with police why you need a machinegun... When my friend got his Scorpion, he brought it to shooting range on one-point sling, loaded (and concealed in a plastic bag) through half of Prague using public transport without breaking single law. Its not bad, but could be better. (silencers, full-autos, etc..) |

Ok I've seen onlythebestfirearms.com mentioned as taking pre-orders so I contacted them about it. They are charging $995 for the Scorpion and $2195 for the Bren and want a $500 deposit via check that they won't cash until it ships. They expect them to ship around the end of January. I will be going elsewhere for mine but I thought it was worth passing on.
