...but I can't post any pictures of it. No, my camera isn't broke or anything. I'm sending the paperwork in to legally shorten it. $200 bucks sucks, but what can you do?

If there are a sufficient amount of requests, I'll post a pic. ;)

    I'm guessing EBR is the correct term, or maybe an EBR SPR.

    I'm "building" an Arsenal 7.62, 16" Krinkov into it's proper barrel length. I should get the paperwork out tomorrow or Friday to our friendly BATFE. I already put a triangle folder on it and dumped the factory polymer stock. I figure some Wolf 154gr soft points ought to be still be pretty potent out of an 8.5" barrel! :D

    An LMT/Noveske upper should be pretty sweet. I've got a Bushy 1:7 16" superlight barrel on my upper. It handles well, needless to say. Sounds great too. ;) Very aesthetically pleasing in my bedroom.

    Ah, screw it. At risk of a timeout, here's a pic, pre-barrelcutting. Needless to say I'll have to wait for the tax stamp before she takes full form. In the mean time, I'm gonna add a very short rail in front of the rear sight to accommodate an Aimpoint.

    Schweet. So many hobbies, so little time...LOL. It's shameful that the shooting sports are a "bad word" anymore. We're grouped with "pornography and violent images" how's that for stereotyping? Sad. They give you the boot Wes, they can boot me too.

    I had an SKS years ago. Folding stock, and bayonet. It was fun. I used to shoot it one handed a lot. I would just time pulling the trigger right to keep them flying level. Nothing like getting 1360 .30 cal rounds(7.62x39) for $129, and pumping them through a $200 gun:) A lot of fun. 2 litter bottles filed with water were good entertainment.
    Please. Please contact me a ben62670 @ yahoo.com. Make sure to include who you are, and you are from Polk so I don't delete your email. Also I am now physically unable to work on any projects. If you need help let these guys know. There are many people who will help if you let them know where you are.
    Thanks

    It's a one-time transfer/manufacturing stamp. I have to pay it to build it. I hang on to this tool for the rest of my life, I never have to pay it again. If for some reason I decide to sell it, the would-be buyer would have to pay the $200 one time to lawfully take possession.

    It does indeed. :D The finest fighting pistols in the world regardless of price, especially the P228.
