Stopped by my local gun shop to take the California Handgun Safety Certificate test and accidentally picked one of these up in the process...



What do you guys think?  I have a few AR's already but once I picked this little guy up I just couldn't put it down.  Going to be my first bolt-action, can't wait to get it out of jail in 10 days and counting.

Definitely love the fact that it's compatible with all my AR accessories as well.

EDIT: Have a Mossberg 590A1, another stripped lower, and a Colt Gov. 1911 .45 in jail for another 10 days too...

AR Platform guys looking for 30rd magazines, check out Maklarbak.  Danish company producing 30rd plastic mags with a modified follower causing the bolt to catch after round 29, having you chamber 30 before you pull the magazine.  Now you can't be enagaged with your pants down!

Also - they're Danish and somehow avoided the mag craze.  $18.99 a piece when you take out VAT as a US customer.  I ordered a few days ago, was only order #61 - I read about them in Recoil a month ago.  Worst case sell them when you get them for double what you paid!

That and their Rudius paperweights are out of spec, so good luck. They seem to have nonstop issues with their mill/setup/operators. Heard about quite a few AR's being milled out of spec at their build parties as well.

Well, since I've already ordered the 1911 lower and parts kit - what recourse is there if everything ends up being a bag of crap?
If I do one of their build parties I'm assuming I'll know right away if anything is out of spec.  Since they're hosting I imagine employees are present; do they just tell you tough luck?

Alot of people are pissed about them advertising build parties on the radio and agreeing to do a news story on them.

Shit, really?  My buddy turned me on to them - never heard of them prior to last week.  They charge $65 per 80% for "instruction and cnc time" at each build party.  Cheaper than the $130 jig for the lower 1911 frame, figured I can do two builds and still come out even.  Shit is NOT cheap though.  Would love to build a .45 and 9mm 1911 but only see .45 stuff out there right now.

Less than impressed with the wanton publicity however...

Just pre-ordered a 80% 1911 .45 from Ares Tactical.  Turns out there machine shop is about 8 miles away from me and they do multiple build parties a week there...

Looking for reccomandations on a .45 handgun. This will be my first hand gun. Looking for something thats nice to shoot, is of good quality, not overly cumbersome. I have shot lots of rifes before but am new to handguns.

Any thoughts?

1911 all the way.

Shit's flying off the shelves everywhere - just got myself a couple of these:

AK-builder flat bending dies, couple of Polish receiver flats and some chrome lined barrels.  Bending dies should look nice to my AR10&15 jigs

Underfolders here I come!
