I like Hickok's reviews. He is very honest about his findings.

Flyer,
All I can find in the 300 blk is used (not saying that's a bad thing) but damn prices have gone crazy. The search continues but that's half the fun.

On a side note i Just ordered a reloading press (backordered) and everything related to that hobby is sold out too. Panic buying is in full force !

That's the only thing they've been "great" at ..... besides the systematic dismantling of the Constitution.

Pretty good at campaigning and avoiding what they were put in office to do.

Anyone bought a 80% lower and jig and finished it yourself yet ?

I just came across two AR-15 magazines out in my garage, while things are hot I might as well take them to an auction house & make some $, just the standard ones but still in demand now.

We have a CNC mill at the shop. I did order the jig as well. Not sure on the plans to finish it. I will probably keep it just as a paper weight. Ya know those things are scarey. ;)



Oh yea be careful on the bolt carrier groups stick with a good name if you can find one. Some of the of non-brand ones have been breaking.

Your right, scares me too !
Thanks for the heads up on the bcg.

Samhill is going to sell some items for a profit to make money, isn't that capitalism ? Maybe you could spread your wealth and send me and Flyer a mag for free ? :D

Sure thing, check your mail you both have always been totally respectful to me. I was thinking about putting whatever I get towards GE's tax bill but there is none. :o

GE .... Nice one Sam! :funny:

I'd buy one off you, but you'd be thrown in prison for shipping it to MA ........ we may differ in political outlooks, but I don't HATE you. ;)

Thanks Smitty, I'll sleep better tonight knowing that :roll: I don't hate anyone, I do have a disliking toward some but hate is a self destructing emotion IMO. Ill' have to take a better look & see who the maker was, I did notice that there are almost zero available right now.

Not to bust your bubble but I have seen several listed lately for we'll under 50 each and they are not the promag poly-plastic mags either.

I grabbed a couple factory Bushmaster mags nib two weeks ago at the gun show in PA for 30 each. Damned if they didn't get lost between there and Maryland though :whistle:
