NFA pic thread

My 2 stamper a while ago beside one of my 5.56 - has a red dot on it now as the scope just wasn't what I was lookin' for.

Emailed my 2019 5320.20s on 7/24/18. Approved 8/8/18. Received 8/17/18. I sent one email, with forms for 10 states, 11 firearms per form...and they sent them back in 10 separate envelopes, each with one form and a cover sheet. :eek:

You can't fix Stoopid...errrr... Government
 
I'm gonna guess a macro shot of a metal deposits on a muzzle device. Whadda I win?
Yep. Supposedly Stickman took it 6-8 years ago. It's a closeup of the oxidation/smelted copper/etc on a Surefire QD muzzle device. Some guy posted it in a discussion on ARF and said he's been using it as his wallpaper or something.

Here's your prize:

I've been cutting out some carbs and sugar but I'll make an exception for that beauty, I'll pick it up at Battery Oaks in Oct.

Congrats on your latest acquisitions!

It only took about a year to get to this point (thanks FBI background check...) and it's still not done. I want a red dot, but I'm not sure which one I want.

I'm thinking this may also become my first painted rifle, too. @11B CIB

ETA a few specs. Barrel cut to 4.5". TBAC .22 takedown suppressor from @TARHEELSTATE. CMC 3.5# single stage trigger. Magpul grip and carbine length fixed stock (love those!)

M&P 15-22....

After 2 years of sending the gun back and forth a dozen times, fighting with the manufacturer, and finally having the entire receiver and feed mechanism replaced, it works. It basically took the threat of legal action to make mike otte get off his butt and resolve the issues.

And no, that's not me chuckling at the end. This gun brings me so little joy after all the time and money wasted on it.



I'll be putting it up for sale later this month.

That’s a damn shame Will

That guy is a POS. He took full payment for a TP9 can from me a few years back and jerked me around for a few months blaming B&T. I got so frustrated that I finally called B&T and they said they hadn’t even spoken to him in regard to any B&T suppressors.

That is a really badass setup you have though!

Yup - Michael is a condescending prick.

The ironic part is the guy that worked with Otte on the 23's was awesome, I sure miss Gerard Miller.
 
Wait, what...........you can't leave us hanging like that give us the details man!
The one with the 40 rnd mag in it is a 1964 Colt SP1 AR-15 converted to select fire. At some point in its life the front pin was converted to a small pin and a half fence was added. The one with the Beta C mag in it is my brothers It is a factory Colt M16A1 with a 10.5 barrel the cycle rate on it is amazing. The HK-51 is an SBR in 7.62x51. I am still waiting for NFA approval for the S&H sear, a couple more HK SBR’s and a couple of cans for them. Getting old sux but you can start working on the bucket list.

Sweet, I thought I read something about your purchase of a sear, perhaps it was on HKPRO. I also have a RR SP1, it's a Hard Times Armory conversion, runs like a top, one of my best friends has one by LaFrance.

Choosing & buying hosts for the sear will drive a person nuts but I'm about done since I finally got my Dakota Tactical Mp5/10mm.

I think I speak for everyone in saying we look forward to more HK goodness once your sear & SBR stamps arrive, congrats!
 
Those of you that run the ASR, how tight do you crank down before locking the ring? Haven't shot it yet but noticed that if I go any past snug it can be a monster to get off. Can I put some anti-sieze on the threads and taper area?

This is basically why the ASR is annoying. It's not as bad as the Trifecta for getting stuck, but if you don't tighten it enough, you'll get wandering POI, or worse case, the locking ring can actually spin to the unlocked position while firing. This was a really big issue with my Specwar 556 K, and it went back to Silencerco half a dozen times and they never could fix it. I no longer use the can.

I found that I generally didn't have issues as long as I tightened and loosened the can a few times before doing a final snug, then spun the locking ring. As a basic rule, I always remove my suppressors while they are still warm. Not melt flesh hot, but when they cool down enough that it's borderline uncomfortable to grab the can with your bare hand for more than a couple seconds.

If you really want to make your Omega awesome, ditch the ASR mount and switch to the Q mount or Dead Air Keymo. I have the Dead Air mount on my Saker 762 and it is excellent. It never gets stuck, even after days of 400-500 rounds of full auto. The Dead Air mount also convinced me to buy a Sandman S, which is now my favorite can.

Or YHM...as it's now a commercial option for the Sakers and Omega/Hybrid.

True, although I can't bring myself to run their muzzle devices because they look absolutely awful. Function over form only goes so far...have to draw a line somewhere. :D

Maybe I should design one that I would use....

Is there a market for the ASR module itself? It would cost almost $500 to swap everything over to keymo but would prevent me from swapping back and forth between ASR and direct thread as my blackout upper is setup so the can is tucked.
