Gun Parts was selling new Steyr 7.62x51 barrels for $100 one month ago. I received one about two weeks ago. Haven't been home to open the box yet so can't comment on its exact condition.

My idea didn't work out-I am figuring out what to do there.There are several options-use an angle iron cradle with adjusting bolts,use a flat steel plate with a pipe to fit in the bearing,set up on an eccentric to adjust,or install the rails and use ordnance solutions rail jig as part of it.I am st...

Bought one a month ago for $875 shipped.

You mean this site has operating costs/It isnt some government funded secret operation to find out who knows how to build guns? I am disillusioned! We should all remember that there is a place here to make donations to the site,help keep costs down,help pay for DIs bibs. ---bil Glad to make a donat...

How about some pictures. I'm intrigued.

IMBLITZVT- I dont mind it being open to buyers,they can just make 5 quick posts and buy,although I would like to think that they would stick around. It is the sellers that I would think it is for.How many times in the last month have we seen sellers that barely make post count,or even ones that try...

Spend the money, it is well translated and worth the $.

Bil,

Got my rivets today. Thanks.

Also curious if the gripstick Weaponeer is selling fits the same opening size as Pirate's. Believe it is made by Wise Lite.

I'm an endowment member but feel that it has become a self licking lollypop for benefit and well being of a select few. I live about 10 miles from national headquarters and go there once in a while to use the range. Find that there is an inner circle of staffers and paper shooters who are the chosen...

Pirate,

I'll take the completed semi conversion assembly. PM me the price and I'll send you a MO. Do you need my old bolt in exchange?

I believe that MSG at http://burntcapital.com was working on getting sets together. Might contact him and ask.

Got three manuals from John yesterday. All three are extremely well done. Translating tech things from German is never easy. These all read smoothly and clearly. Shipping was very fast as well. A class act.

Thanks for the lead. Ordering one today.

Me too. On advice form Pirate on Gunco to 1919a4 and now here. Guess he is a bad influence.

Wow...That looks great. I saw some brief mention a few months back on 1919a4.com about this, and Ive bought the drill/countersink sets from them. MGS has been hinting for a while that something was in the works. Good company .good products and most importantly, good prices. I've bought from MGS in ...

I'm new here and I think xtal01 about says it all. I joined to learn about building an MG42 and acquire the tools and parts to do so. I've been lurking since I joined hoping that I would see something I could add but no luck so I'm still shut out of the sales area. Got nothing to sell, just looking ...

Thanks for the detailed info on kits received. I'm a newbie on this board but intend to order a kit and build so this all helps. Probably call to place an order tomorrow. If money weren't too much of a problem would it be worthwhile to go for a 3 kit deal then sort through the parts to pick the best...
