My fucking hammer functions as a bolt hold-open if I ride the bolt down slowly thanks to them.

Can't help but feel sorry for the poor guy. Everyone makes mistakes and now he has two communities wanting him dead.

[QUOTE=Jagur;39421498]uuh i actually like the G2 trigger :X[/QUOTE] I hate it with a passion that burns hotter than the sun. I'm honestly thinking about getting out the original trigger group, getting rid of the NFA bits, and then making my own MADE IN MURCA trigger group it's so bad.

[QUOTE=Jagur;39421526]it's not that bad in my gun, I like the reset and the pull is alright, i did grinding on it to make it nice and smooth.[/QUOTE] I can live with it, it's good for bump-firing but that's about it. It has way too much creep and for some reason it's only single-stage instead of the superior double-stage. I really need to polish it up and tweak it a little before I do anything drastic, though. I exaggerate how much I hate it for effect, but it really is a terrible trigger imo. Feels so cheap.

[QUOTE=DaCommie1;39421443] Also, if you're going to display your lever like that in Canuckistan, you need to have it trigger locked/the lever locked shut.[/QUOTE] I have a lever-lock, since a regular trigger guard would just fall off. The lever lock prevents you from cycling the action, thus stopping the breech from opening, thus being able to load a cartridge, etc, etc. I took it off for just that picture, and then put it on again. :)

If any of you Canuckistanians find Nagant Revolvers anywhere let me know where. IDGAF if it's in BC or Newfoundland, I want one, and they can ship it to my goddamn house.

What exactly did he do wrong with the luger, anyways? I agree that it's egregious to take sandpaper to any firearm ever, but what beyond that? Did he accidentally sand off numbers or something?

[QUOTE=ewitwins;39421737]What exactly did he do wrong with the luger, anyways? I agree that it's egregious to take sandpaper to any firearm ever, but what beyond that? Did he accidentally sand off numbers or something?[/QUOTE] He removed the war-trophy mark and sand papered the finish off to the point he damaged the actual metal on the barrel (Removed a serial # too I think). It's not as bad as everyone is making it out to be, but he seriously messed up the things cash and historical value.

Well if he removed the serial # he's in deep shit

[QUOTE=felix the cat;39421787]Well if he removed the serial # he's in deep shit[/QUOTE] IIRC, the serial on the frame is all that matters, numbers on parts are superfluous to the ATF.

[QUOTE=ewitwins;39421367]Guys Guys I think 16bit killed himself, he isn't responding what have we (and /k) done[/QUOTE] You do know it wasn't 16bit who found the luger, right? It was Manian or whatever his name is.

someone should buyem a title

[QUOTE=Trunk Monkay;39421818]someone should buyem a title[/QUOTE] "Well now ya fucked up..." --- His title.

Poor guy. I kind of feel for him if he realized he goofed. I'd feel like complete ass salad.

We're all human. Just because he fucked up where we could all see doesn't make him any dumber / smarter than the rest of us...let's just go ahead and move on now. Doesn't affect us either way.
