Quote HistoryQuoted: In my state the pistol grip has to "protrude conspicuously below" the receiver in order to be an "AW" feature. I believe the expired federal AWB and at least some other existing state AWBs are similar.

Quote HistoryQuoted: Glad I bought a kit when they were around $300. I guess I should build it someday.  You should sell it to me ( for 300 ), and I will build it. Then you can shoot it when ever you want, just supply the ammo. I am only 20 mins south of gettysburg, with in reason I would bring it to your range or meet at a range here. Ps It does not hurt to try @ddiggler |

Other than the featureless aspect, I think there are much better beltfeds kits than a 1919.

Quote HistoryQuoted: The extreme majority of Brownings MGs are not open bolt originally. A M1919 definitely is not. It's one of their weaknesses in full auto, since combined with a fixed barrel you can get them to start cooking off rounds. Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: Quoted: How hard to convert to full auto if you're a SOT? Probably more trouble than it's worth. The right side plate for semis is wider than original, to deny the original open bolt components. You'd have to remove and replace the right side plate and purchase the OG bolt and fire control group. It would be easier to just build a kit.

You can get another fire control group that has not been modified for semi auto, machine to the widths needed and install.. |

Weight, ability to shoot without a tripod, meaning its now a 1 person gun as opposed to the 1919 which necessitates a crew to employ effectively. X39 is cheaper than x51.

Man, I should spend the money on something like body armor instead, but that's one of my 2 grail guns. I’m having a real hard time talking myself down from buying a kit. I know all the kits left are beat to shit .308 conversions for $1200+, but it’s not like they’re making more.

Quote HistoryQuoted: How hard to convert to full auto if you're a SOT? Full auto sideplate(this might be able to be re machined), bolt and trigger group. But an SOT can buy one already built, or start from scratch with a new kit and only need a sideplate. No need to convert a semi-and starting from a kit is probably less work. |

Shit! I sold my semi to cheap $2500 about a year ago but I did get a good deal on a transferable so there’s that.
Honestly though they are way heavy for a semi and with 30-06 being $2/rnd and cheap 308 $1/rnd I would go with an RPD if I just had to have a semi belt fed. I have one of those still and they are fun and cheaper to shoot but parts aren’t as easy to find and no switching calibers. |

Honestly, after shooting a friends real deal M60E6, I’d go that way, even if it was a semi. Those things are like a M249 on steroids, but being a partial/semi bull pup design, they balance oh so nice. Plus the E6 is dead ass reliable. Yes a M240 would be more fun, but the thought of a belt fed user served, verse a crew served is worth allot.
