I hope Mike has as much fun doing this gig as I had doing it. I appreciate the continuing support I am receiving from all of you, but I didn't believe it fair for the Hometown Forum mod to be overseas for so long. Mike is conversant with the laws, and you folks, so I couldn't think of another, better choice. Well, that wasn't Dutch HAVE FUN!!!

Duke of Nukem: I am your king. Woman: Well I didn't vote for you. Duke of Nukem: You don't vote for kings. Woman: Well how'd you become king then? Duke of Nukem: The Lady of the Lake, her arm clad in the purest shimmering samite held aloft Excalibur from the bosom of the water, signifying by divine providence that I, Duke of Nukem, was to carry Excalibur. THAT is why I am your king. Dennis: [interrupting] Listen, strange women lyin' in ponds distributin' swords is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony. Congrats Mike. Hopefully I'll make it back home sometime in the near century to shoot with you guys again. |

Duke, your presence is requested. www.ar15.com/forums/topic.html?b=8&f=41&t=211762 He's the only one that will be able to view the link.

You can't expect to wield supreme executive power just because some watery tart threw a sword at you! Congrats Duke! |

Sub, are you back from Mexico? Your Bar-sto has been fitted to your P14 Limited but since you didn't give me a mag for it I can't test fire it. It locks up tight and unlocks properly now though. Lots of internet business getting started, I'm pretty happy about that, and we're making progress on our own builds. The prototype gun should be test fired tomorrow morning and I think it will run 100%. I spent all day in the shop today prepping trunions for a big build day we are going to have next Saturday. I finally found some Cobalt bits that will drill through hardened steel nicely, although I still broke one of them. Cursed like a sailor at Trent when it happened too. There goes $4, motherf@%&ing sonofa bowlegged b!^#h! |

Duke, I'll give you a call later today. Looking forward to testing out the P14 with the suppressor when I get some free time. Hope it sounds a good as it did on the HK Tactical. I haven't found a bit yet that I can't break. I bent a concrete bit a few weeks ago when I was putting up new hand rails on my steps when I hit some rebar or part of an old anchor bolt. |
| No website yet but frankly I'm not in a hurry, business is rolling in regardless! Seems like I'm at the shop almost every night of the week trying to get stuff done and people are already sending in parts kits from as far away as Alaska for us to do AK builds on. Frankly I've got enough work lined up that I don't really need to advertise just yet. One gentleman from Illinois has ordered what has to be one of the most wicked, most expensive AKs I've ever heard of. I'm really looking forward to doing the build, but I'm a little nervous since the heart of the thing is a $400 milled sidefolder receiver. Sure would hate to bugger that thing up. |

Ack! Angelfire... bracken fracken razzen tazzer! Ok, here's a linky then: www.angelfire.com/ok3/firingline/page2.html |

Yeah, the milled receivers weigh noticeably more. In AR15s, think 20 inch DPMS heavy barrel vs. govt. profile 20 inch barrel. Except that the weight is in the receiver. I believe the MSL99 can be used with the $90 Romanian kits, yes. Why you would want to put the world's roughest parts kit on the world's most expensive receiver, I don't know, but yeah you could do it. |

Duke congrats on the Mod position. Where are you located in MO? It's hard to find a good smith in Northeast MO. What kind of price to build a Akron Armorey Bulgarian AK74 sidefolder. It came with all the compliance parts, I just need a receiver and a smith. Would need the receiver finished to match the rest of the kit. Thanks |
