B- Fear, fear, fear. C- Sure, be prepared but it's likely whatever is in that so called plan will happen slowly and incrementally, with much resistance. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Besides replacing recoil springs at regular intervals The only thing I have broken was a trigger return spring on my early gen 2 19 that was my match gun for a couple decades with about 100k through it I also replaced a striker spring a few thousand rounds after that as I was getting light pin hits on some old SAKO smg 9mm ammo that I had used for years , spring was still working fine with commercial and reloaded ammunition Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: Quoted: What tends to go down on a Glock 19? Serious question. @thorn653 Unless you have a high round count on it, it's pretty resilient. That said, after taking the Glock 1-day armorers course, I have stocked up on slide and frame parts kits, but I have several Gen 3 G19's. If you're going with single parts, I've also done recoil springs, locking blocks (be careful which generation G19 you have as they are generation and can be intra-generation specific), firing pin springs, firing pin, extractor, extractor spring. If you want to keep it even more simple than that, then stick just with the springs: Recoil, extractor spring, firing pin spring, etc. The only thing I have broken was a trigger return spring on my early gen 2 19 that was my match gun for a couple decades with about 100k through it I also replaced a striker spring a few thousand rounds after that as I was getting light pin hits on some old SAKO smg 9mm ammo that I had used for years , spring was still working fine with commercial and reloaded ammunition There’s a reason people like Glocks.

If any of you have metal-framed CZ-75 pistols, this isn’t a bad kit to have. The kit is for a CZ-75D PCR, but the firing pin/spring, extractor/spring are interchangeable on the other CZ-75 models. The recoil spring is the same for the CZ-75 Compact. Slide stops are usually very CZ pistol specific. If you have a couple of CZ-75D PCR, this kit is a must have.

Quote HistoryQuoted: Agree for time being; however, 3D printer go brrr. They can't stop what's coming - technology and materials advances will bring the small parts factory to your dining room table. A surprising number of gun parts can be made with simple tools like a drill press, a vise, files, hammers, pliers and sandpaper. In some cases you might be able to make a workable replacement part with simple hand tools faster than assembling and tuning a 3D printer. Not saying a precision machined part wouldn't be better, just saying that a lot of really simple parts that don't have exacting tolerances can be made pretty easily. You just keep removing metal until you have the part you need. |

It is prudent to have spare barrels, bolts, springs, ancillary small parts, the complete set of tools to work on an AR, and enough spare rifles that receivers are not a concern.
Beyond a certain number though, if you need more than a few spares, there will either be BFPUs or you will be dead, so don't burn that retirement account outfitting a battalion. |

If there is one thing that the left has made blatantly obvious the last few years by them running to friendly Federal judges over everything, it's that much of Biden's agenda can be shut down the same way.
It just takes a GOP with a spine and a rich person fronting the cash for lawsuits. In that case, a single Federal judge can block what he does, and if his lawyers rewrite what he wants to do, then run to another judge and keep blocking it until it gets to the Supreme Court...which is currently 5 to 4 and has a good chance of shooting down anything Biden wants to do gun grabbing wise along with other things. |

These people are literally getting in front of cameras and saying they should make lists of us and hunt us down. Quit talking like fucking losers and man the fuck up.

Sure get your parts but don't plan to live in an America where we have to hide exercising our God given rights. I put it out there. The simplest option is having people running to the courts over everything Biden pushes for, and force it to the Supreme Court if it has to. The left pioneered this themselves and ran to the courts constantly, solely to stop Trump's agenda, why can it not be done in reverse? A single federal judge in Hawaii blocked the travel ban and his state wasn't even taking any refugees in at all....The judges can obviously make up any reason that they want to block something which is what the Democrats did from 2017 to 2020. |

Many of the 3d printed gun designs are designed to not use any firearm related components, as they're for production in Europe. Barrel rifling is even produced by taking an off-the-shelf precision steel tube, 3d printing a spiral mandrel, adding wires to the mandrel, and, in a chemical bath, running electricity through the wires to remove material to produce the grooves in the bore.

Quote HistoryQuoted: What tends to go down on a Glock 19? Serious question. Well, you've probably been thinking about that trigger upgrade anyway. And maybe those TiN upgrades. That gives you the originals as spares and probably covers most of what you would want. Or just buy a lower frame kit and a slide kit. They're actually pretty cheap and would cover everything. If this blows over, you can pick up a frame and a custom slide..... If you buy and build one of the polymer80 frames you could even build one for which there is no federal paperwork. It's also perhaps worthwhile to separate the firearms that you picked up in private sales from your FFL tracked guns, know what you have that nobody can prove that you have. John |

The time to stack it deep was 2019. Donate to stop the steal or GA senate races instead of stockpiling buffer springs.
Oh and Trump had a wish list written up on campaign website too: probably repeal NFA, national constitutional carry and Glock 18s for kindergarten teachers. But he couldn’t accomplish any of that because he didn’t have 60 seats seats. Dems will pass a bunch of shit out of house and it’ll die in senate no matter who is POTUS. |
