No! I won't lose hope! Just because some self righteous former Gen. says we need "Gun Control" means fuck all to me. When Hickok45 says so, then I'll worry.
So I finally get the extra cash in my account this morning to buy a PRI flip-up gas block. Bravo Company has had it in stock for weeks, and it was in stock yesterday. When I get on this morning to place my order, Out of Stock....dammit! Luckily, PRI's website had them listed with ample stock. Placed my order with them, and now I have to play the waiting game. I don't normally like ordering directly from the manufacturer's, because they tend to take forever to process orders. Safariland, KAC, A.R.M.S., LMT, and a few others that I have ordered from all take 1-2 weeks just to process their orders. Here's hoping PRI is quick about it.
On that note, I placed an order with SWFA almost a week ago, and they still haven't shipped it. I called them yesterday, and the guy said they are so back-logged he had no idea when they would even be able to ship. Looks like the panic-buying is ramping up on everything now, and not just the guns & ammo.
EDIT: Forgot to add, but it should be no surprise, paid for a rifle for my step-father on Buds almost two weeks ago, and they still haven't shipped either.

Bollocks. Anti-gunners and conservatives alike will vote for the bill, it's expected.

doubtful, the conservatives that came out in support of another AWB, only did it so they'd look good for a few days, acting like they actually gave a shit about the massacre. I highly doubt that they'd vote for another, an even stricter, AWB.
It's just biden talkin smack anyways, I won't believe in the possibility of an executive order until Obama says so.

Biden is also the person who went on TV in the early 90s, before the first AWB, to show people what an assault weapon was. His demonstration involved a Marine grunt with a fully automatic M4 doing a mag dump. Biden then proceeded to say that we need to get these guns off the street. From the footage you could tell that the Marine wanted to say something badly, and the whole demonstration just didn't sit well with him.
I was a youngster at the time this occurred, but believe it or not my friend's dad had the news cast recorded on VHS. We watched it not too long ago. It was sickening to watch honestly.
According to some [URL="http://cnsnews.com/blog/gregory-gwyn-williams-jr/panic-one-million-ar-15-magazines-backorder"]blog[/URL], there are over a million back orders for magpuls AR-15 mags. That shit is just INSANE.

Magpul mags are pretty shitty too, IMO. The tops wear out pretty quickly, and I've seen the spines split in two from about a four foot fall.

You might be confusing pmags with promags. Pmags are some of the best out there.
the PMAG thread here is a shitfest as usual.

I've dropped Pmags on rocks from five feet. And thrown them down to the ground from head height, and yet I have never seen one, let alone heard of one, that has failed to work.
[QUOTE=ButtsexV3;39170172]You might be confusing pmags with promags. Pmags are some of the best out there.[/QUOTE]
I'm definitely not confusing Magpul's Pmags with Pro Mag (which are shitty as well). I don't like them, I think they are crap. I had two of the 2nd gen Pmags (one windowed, one not), and the feed lips were starting to crack/fray after about 600 rounds through each one. One came with an AR-15 I bought, the other I bought at Cabela's when it was on sale. My step-brother just bought a lot of the brand new 3rd gen Pmags a few weeks ago, and while we were at the range, when he ejected the mag it bounced off of the range table to the ground, which is about four feet. The mag separated on the spine. It didn't split completely in two, but I could stick a knife blade in the split. Any more usage would have caused it to come completely apart. Lastly, a good friend/shooting buddy had the notorious cracking issues with his 1st gen Pmags ([url]http://m4carbine.net/showthread.php?t=25395[/url]). I've seen issues with all three generations of the Pmags, and while Magpul is always helpful with replacements, I just prefer to use magazines with less hassle these days.
Can't do it. No more gun debates in SH it's just rational people repeating the same arguments to idiots for the past 2 weeks practically everyday for 5+ pages.
Others of you who go in and argue just stop there's really no point anymore. At least half of this site comes from coddled nanny state European nations and their mindset will never change.

We make small bits of headway once in a while, not everyone is totally ignorant and intolerant, some few people are open to change, and I'm happy to say that if I'm not wrong in my assumptions many of them are Canadians.

I think most are just British school children who have absolutely zero experience around firearms (even Pierrewithahat admitted that), so they grow up watching action movies and assume that all guns are bad and evil and you don't need them. Nanny states man, nanny states.

Several people and myself explained everything multiple times, and he just kept going back to "WHAT DO YOU NEED HIGH CAPACITY 30 ROUNDS FOR1?1!?"

what would be needed to be done to put it together? I've seen kits for PSL's before but I've never looked into them before.

I love how they like to think 30 rounds is high capacity and means anything when you can change mags in seconds.

Little update: Just got an email from PRI. I placed my order with them this morning, and it's already been shipped and I have a tracking number in hand. I'm really impressed with how fast they processed my order. This is faster than many of the places I shop from.
Anybody else stocking up on surplus stuff?
