Hey Hector, what's up? Haven't seen you on msn for a while.

Easily the ugliest jet planes I've ever seen.

Which one of you mods switched my user title, and what the fuck is it supposed to mean?

944 · #**726** 03-13-2012, 09:21 PM

And now it's switched back......

What did it say? Based on your postcount it was probably 1764...? There are a bunch of easter eggs built into the user title system.

Yup, that was it

I don't suppose anyone can comment on the legality of buying a fully-auto rifle abroad, jury-rigging it to semi-auto only, and then taking it back to the states? Is there any established protocol for this?

Infrared · #**730** 03-28-2012, 01:22 PM

They kind of have that covered by the "DeWAT" (Deactivated WAr Trophy) legislation...They make damn sure the gun is non-functioning by requiring you to do things like weld the receiver shut and/or spike the barrel and weld it shut, and other horrible things. I know you don't necessarily mean a war trophy, but the protocol is likely the same for a collector gun or similar. I might be wrong, though. But I know you couldn't just, say, remove the fire control group and kiester it through customs or anything.

Infrared · #**731** 03-28-2012, 01:25 PM

That, and a lot of semi-auto rifles (let alone full-autos) are already hard or impossible to import...

**mizled** · #**732** 03-28-2012, 03:18 PM

An ATF demilled receiver is a very sad sight.

Can't be done. The ATF's rule is "once a machine gun, always a machine gun."

Well that's stupid.

Fuckin BATFE, won't let me have any fun. I mean come on, who put one bureau in charge of alcohol, tobacco, firearms, and explosives? If they were in charge of porn too they would have a monopoly on all the awesome things in America.

once a shoelace, always a shoelace

Infrared · #**737** 03-31-2012, 09:11 AM

LOL....I wish I had the kind of money that dude has...The kind of money and time required to get a fucking SHOELACE registered as a machine gun and all, just to make the BATF look stupid. Heheh, kudos to that guy, whoever he is...

If any of you are going "what the fuck?!" Right now...google "shoestring machine gun"...lmao..

Hmm, I wonder if that trick will work on lots of different semiautos or just a few?

Hydroponichronic · #**738** 03-31-2012, 03:19 PM

I used to be worried about a chinese invasion. Now, though, I'm not so sure:

We dont have to worry about fighting the chinese. They may have lots of people, but their weaponry is vastly inferior to the US. They are still using second-hand cold war shit from Russia. They cant even manufacture their own jet engines. We would crush them, nuke them if necessary...

roasted · #**740** 04-03-2012, 06:00 AM

military engines. They still buy all of the fighter engines from Russia....fag

roasted · #**743** 04-03-2012, 06:23 AM

Pretty much all of their weaponry is a knock off of Russia shit from the 70s and 80s. I'm not too worried about it. Their "new" stealth plane isnt even comparable to the F117, which is 30 years old. As a general rule, china is 25-30 years behind everything the US does.

The first mistake is to underestimate the enemy, the second mistake was to gravely underestimate the enemy, proclaims Rolf.

Bought some reloading shit today.

FINALLY found Ramshot TAC powder in stock and am going to try to clone Hornady 75gr TAP.

Also, I got tired of the powder puff velocities Hodgdon HP-38 was giving me in 9mm. So I bought some Alliant Power Pistol and some 124gr XTPs. Will report charge weights and velocities (if my chrono is being tarded). Again, the goal is to clone Hornady TAP with the pistol loadings.

I might also do some ghetto ballistics tests with wet newspaper or something.

**5.56 SS109** · #**747** 04-05-2012, 04:12 PM

No chrono data yet but 6.0 gr of Power Pistol under a 124gr XTP is pretty damn hot.

No pressure signs though, but there is one hell of a bright white muzzle flash.

It is also the most accurate 9mm load I have ever shot out of my USP.

Pretty happy with the results.

I'll be curious to see what you can get on the chrono. Any gut estimates? Otherwise, keep us posted.

Hornady has their max of 5.7gr rated to give 1100 from a S&W Model 39, so I would assume I am getting close to 1150 with my charge of 6.0gr.

Hornady always publishes watered down data, Alliant lists their max charge at 6.4gr with a 124gr bullet.

I don't need it that fast as I am sure my goal of cloning 124gr TAP (1110fps) has already been met.

Regardless the fact that this load is insanely accurate means more to me than a few extra fps.

World war three would be over very quickly.

On one side you would have Russia, China, India, various shitbox Asian, African, South American and Middle Eastern countries as well as various terrorist factions and transnational organised crime groups vs the rest of the world.

Asia would get owned by Taiwan, Japan, South Korea and American assets.

Europe would get owned by NATO.

South America would get owned by South American US allies.

Various special forces groups would form death squads and destroy all the terrorist and hostile organised crime groups all over the world, as well as their sympathisers, and it would all be over in less that six months.

And China would be totally fucking destroyed.

tuer502gt · #**751** 04-08-2012, 10:42 AM

Oh and Israel would romper stomp anything hostile in the MEAO all by themselves.

Again and again and again.

Are you back from vacation? I thought you were banned

tuer502gt · #**753** 04-08-2012, 12:34 PM

Yeah I keep getting banned but so far temp bans.

roasted · #**754** 04-08-2012, 01:05 PM

what'd you get banned for last time?

tuer502gt · #**755** 04-08-2012, 01:58 PM

I'm not sure. The infraction says for thread bumping and doing it continuously, but I did it twice only.

There's probably another reason.

I wouldn't worry about it. It will resolve itself in good time.

**5.56 SS109** · #**756** 04-11-2012, 03:59 AM

Busy busy busy...

Need to get to a real range with at least 100 yards to confirm my zero, but I am near certain I have found a new go-to loading.

Cycles good and has zero muzzle flash and costs about 1/4 of what it would for me to buy the factory equivalent.
