I can't remember the last time I posted in this thread, if ever, but I just finished (I think I'm finished) my current AK.

 

 

Polish Radom

 

 

NATO length stock

 

 

Hogue grip

 

 

Oversize charging handle

 

 

BHO finger shelf safety lever

 

 

Kalashnikov USA trigger group (made by CMC Triggers right here in Fort Worth, Texas!)

 

 

Recoil buffer pad

 

 

Ghost ring rear sight

 

 

Tritium night sight front... sight

 

 

Tabuk flash hider

 

 

60 round Schmeisser quad-stack magazine (and the two 30s that came with the gun)

 

 

And a snarky T-shirt!

 

 

Sadly, it was all lost in the tragic boating accident on the way home from the shop.

I have a PTR 91 and it is a fun gun to fire. The roller set up takes a bit of getting used to after using mostly an AR. It is pretty accurate, a bit weighty, but not too bad. 

My brother used to have an FN/FAL and it was a beast of a rifle compared to the PTR/G3 CETME. And yes, it is loud, after all, it is a .308 Battle Rifle 

 

HK parts interchange easily and are surprisingly not too expensive, especially mags. You can actually add a collapsible stock to the PTR, assuming it is a full length unit, and it would still be in the 16" range required by CA

 

One downside to it is the shell ejection. It is a fluted breech and it dimples the crap out of the shells, making them basically un reloadable. And it launches them into low earth orbit most of the time. 

 

I really like it and just looks flat out cool, and you can not deny the pleasure of doing the HK slap! 

 

Image it not of my rifle, but very similar

k
FN is insane, tried it once at the local gun range( local gun store has some of FN rifles  https://gritrsports.com/shooting/firearms/rifles/ available for rent)

Would you need adapter for collapsible stock? 

Hell, damaging shells is a big downside for me personally since I'm reloading most of my ammo those days...

No, it just swaps out like the regular stock, two pins and swap

 

 

 

As for the ammo, that is why I am ok with shooting steel stuff through it, since it stripes the casings

Uhh.. I really did not need to know this was available. Also, as it is a single shot pistol it is even legal for our California friends.

Not with that forward grip!  I don't think that's legal on a pistol in any of the states!

Probably not actually a grip but instead a bipod. Those are legal (see 10/22 Charger).

Ah, pooibly.

Hmm… I’ve fired .50 BMG out of a M82A1.  Pretty much cured me from wanting to experience it out of a pistol.  
 

This though… 🍆💦

Someday I want to own something in .50 caliber.

Oregon gun permit goes into place on the 7th. May be picking up something else before then.

Remember kids!

 

Before 114 goes into effect....

The law says if they cant process your background check in 3 business days... your FFL is 100% clear to just hand you your purchase 🤣

Good luck, the queue for background checks and the number of firearms actually left in stores is ridiculous.

Depends on how things go, but if I’m back in Houston this summer I’ll hit you up as I go through DFW.  Maybe we can burn some powder if you know a place.

Just gotta get the background check submitted before the 7th was my understanding? 
 

and I believe you about what’s left.

Sounds good.

[Draker]

Tried to order some mags from midway, already restricted. 

[Skib]

welcome to being northern north california lol 

[Draker]

I gotta get the fuck out of the west coast. 

 

Went to two different gun shops today.. one had zero inventory. The other had barely anything. 

[Soundline]

Darker, try… and I will not suggest a website that I have not bought mags from.  And guns.   That sank.

Tried a few others. Either not in stock or restricted. All good, I can still get them second hand. I was trying to think of my future purchases and stocking up. 
 

looking like parts of 114 may be delayed. Gotta hit the bucket list a few more times if so.

[Soundline]

So true.  Barrels are the most challenging parts to make at home.

 

If you just want to make firearms at home though there’s a number of easier ways to make them out of pipe and wood.

[datzenmike]

For looters and zombies it's fine.
