It seems a dealer that does buisiness with another AK board is in a quandry. My "friend" ordered and recieved some AK 74 mags from this company about 4 months ago. Last week he got a call from this company and it went something like this: Hello, Mr. *****. Yes This is ***** from ****** firearms, were trying to track down a shipment that may have been sent to you inadvertently. We are trying to find where a set of CLASS THREE fire control parts went, and know it was sent to a customer in your area, Have you recieved anything from us lately? Ummm, no, just the magazines I ordered a few months back, if I had I would have sent it back since I haven't ordered from you since then. OK, thanks, sorry to have bothered you, good bye (click) WTF?????? I asked him if he thought it was a joke someone was playing on him, and he said no way as the caller ID showed the name of the company. Things that make you go HMMMMMMMMMMMMM.... |
Even though they said "Class III FCG" I'm betting they wouldn't ask: "Hey, you didn't happen to receive a full auto AK rifle [or receiver] from us on your last shipment did you?" (That's assuming they also sell complete firearms including SOT weapons) You see technically they're not lying if the particular set of FA parts they're looking for just happened to come packaged in a receiver sporting a wood stock and barrel..... It certainly makes the inquisitive go "HMMMMM"? Sly |

oops! no reseller that i know of would call customers to track a 'misplaced' fire control group of any type. fire control parts are not controlled items. [joe]hey...any of you guys happen to see where i left that machinegun????? i swear! it was here a minute ago! [ken]no. but shemp, from shipping, was thru here a few minutes ago getting more parts ready to put on backorder. |

Here, about 1/4 of the way down this page: www.joeken.net/store/shopdisplayproducts.asp?id=39&cat=AK47+Parts+39 "AK47 full auto fire control group with rate reducer. Makes any pre-ban AK rifle a full automatic." "$9.95 Retail $79.95" [!] I think that they might actually believe that. |
Why does'nt he just say something like "why pay big money for a NFA AK, when you can have a full auto ak for only 9.99" ..... lol ... Joeken = Moron ... He should definitly re-word his product description there. |
| The FA FCGs are leagal to own and sell. You need the 3rd hole in your receiver to install the parts and current interpertation has it that without the 3rd hole there is no intent to make an illegal machine gun. What I find stupid is there blurb about making any pre-ban AK full auto...dumb asses to the T. |
