  1. I think that's what AR guys (in particular) have been doing for a long time Buy a stripped lower receiver and you can buy every part to make it a gun, over the counter The lower receiver is what requires paperwork
  2. The norincos are really nice @ $400.00 or so Put 100 or 200 into it and you'll have a gun that rivals a kimber - or leave as is A lot of 'professional' shooters buy and customize a Norinco and save $$, rather than buy and customize a kimber

    WTB 9mm pistol

    I actually like the feel of a PPK too (which is surprising, for how little it is) Despite what I hear about them jamming...just a matter of proper break-in (i've also heard)
  4. ...I need 10 more inches Figured as much
  5. ditto on length if it won't fit for matt
  6. the third 'meeting' or 'event' of some sort I've attended featuring CR people 4 people this time 3 last time....3 the time before Failures. People are stupid unreliable any more....
  7. ever play one of those 50 year old mofos that played in college? That damned mid-range hook shot they've got is lethal You sit there with your thumb in your ass, helpless..... I'm still planning on showing up Anyone from CR over 6'? Any dunkers?
  8. Already sold the turbo now that I sold the TV, here's the rest! Any T6 turbo will work - S400, TV series detroit diesel turbos, etc I'll sell all this stuff, basically...for the cost of parts. Tons of work, collecting parts, shipping costs and custom welding = free I don't think you'll find a much easier way to go about it. I tried to make this as compact as possible, so it'll work on any setup i ever went with - just plumb to it I used my own exhaust manifolds, so you'll have to make your own I about lost a damned finger grinding the hole for the wastegate in that merge transition. 1/2" angle grinders are bad mofo's! Big, new Wastegate (a cheaper one, but new...and big) 60mm i think? I have two extra springs as well, for it Merge is a flowmaster piece, with a mandrel river transition to it. All welded and transitioned pretty nicely to a T6 3/8" mild steel flange Wastegate i think is SS steel - had it custom welded to the mild Two expensive corrugated inner flexes (the good kind) 2.5 mild steel piping - assorted types....with some v-band connections You'll have to do some modifications, of course...to fit whatever headers you use I probably have some various pieces like a copper T6 flange i'll throw in Also, a 90 degree 5" downpipe (add $50 for this if you want it) So anyway, $350, $400 with the 5" mandrel downpipe The flowmaster piece was $70 Mandrel river transition was 25 The wastegate was $100 The t6 flange was 25, copper flange 5.00 or so corrugated flex = can't remember, $100 or so - might have been more and there's 2 or 3 v-bands that were 30/piece not counting mandrel 2.5" mild steel and other pieces....nor welding costs And took me a solid month to make All sandblasted inside, i tried to grind most welds clean inside, before moving to the next weld - etc etc. Not the best job, but it'll get you going quick I may be 'obo', but i thought i'd post here before i took it to TurboMustangs for sale section I suppose I could separate the flex pipes - $80.00 off if you don't want those two pieces can e-mail pics of the stuff I'm not in Columbus terribly often
  9. jesus that's a big turbo carb you were making some nice power bump for you
  10. I can probably play the gf might have to come to watch.... (i'm in town for the weekend with her)
  11. sorry, i haven't known about this? CR members play? I'm potentially game Let me know when/where/how maybe I should send someone my digits, to text me an update when you figure it out?
  12. that makes a bit of sense, then I swear I'd seen DMPS cast lowers in the past, which is confirmed by that...and maybe given me a bad impression I remember quite a few friends complaining about quality with the old 'investment grade cast lowers'
  13. +2 I swear i've seen cast lowers that were DPMS And I find it hard to believe their price is $15 over cost. Source? It's a silly argument, though... At this point in time, it's a decent deal if you can even get one RRA is nice, though
  14. I don't think DPMS is included in one of those And still think it's a cast lower, produced in Becker, MN One of the ways they make 'em rather cheaply but maybe I'm wrong Still a nice gun for the price About $100 overpriced, but doesn't seem like we're going to find anything that cheap for a while
  15. panther lites have a cast lower, don't they? Replace it with a RR lower and you might have a nice weapon ...they were in the 600 - 650 range a few months ago ....still crazy prices I swear....with this economy....prices WILL come down
  16. nice guy thanks for the pistols
  17. ...meth injection might be easier than an intercooler here's the motor I just blew up http://img174.imageshack.us/img174/5586/newestturbomk3.jpg http://img174.imageshack.us/img174/newestturbomk3.jpg/1/w1077.png
  18. or C&S carbs Occasionally, I have a blowthrough 66/67 gto Blew the engine last time out - putting it back together It's not easy....nor cheap...nor reliable (yet...for me...at least...) There are a dozen different very particular factors with a turbo car to worry about....any one of which will make your engine a coffee table Ask someone if their turbo car is running....the answer is, "Well, it's a turbo car...so...sometimes" I may upgrade to a CSU carb this winter, and will have a spare 750 blowthrough carb Also have headers and intake setup for a turbo sbc But carb basics: A small carb can live on a large engine, compared to na A smallblock 500 HP engine with a turbo might need a 650 - could probably go smaller a 750 holley will support 800 or 900 HP Basically, take a holley and change the parts inside it to withstand boost (nitrophyll floats that won't collapse) and it'll work. MIght not work well. There's a page called "hanger 18" that tells you a lot of the 'accepted' modifications to a holley that work very well. Anyone competent with a holley could potentially do them That's assuming you run a carb hat. You can put a carb in an enclosed box that will pressurize the entire carb, and not need to do a lot of modifications. But they don't run as well as one with a hat. And the box is expensive...and a pain if you want to do modifications BG and Demon, I believe....even make blowthrough carbs now - new But i hear they're more of a headache than they're worth - try your own first and learn about it
  19. I've got two guns I'd potentially trade. I don't normally sell - usually trade...or I'll end up with fewer firearms, which is not a preferable position I'll put prices to comply with the requirements....not 'deals' but i'd be fine selling them for that The first is a very nice Browning Buckmaster .22. The fancy one with adjustable sites, rosewood grips, etc etc Hell of a plinking gun. If this were a Stainless Steel gun, I wouldn't sell it (1.5 years old?) $450 The second is a Charles Daly 20 gauge field grade semi-auto. Matte finish or whatever - very lightweight and nice, fun gun that is awesome...but I don't think I'm doing any more rabbit hunting for a while. $400 It's one season old... Will trade for: Stainless Steel pistols in .38, .45, .357 Will post pictures and more info later

  21. ...I've hunted since I was around 14 I've had a mossberg 500, remington 870, remington1100, rem1187 And I settled on the 9200 Enjoy, if you buy a pump. Because...you'll be wishing it were an auto the first time you go hunting There's a mossberg 9200 combo (deer barrel) in the local paper for $400 - seems like a much better deal than a $300 wingmaster but feel free to listen to the other recommenders
