A NICS background check is not required for transfer providing you have an approved form 4 in hand. Refer to 9.12. Section 9.12 Are FFLs/SOTs required to initiate a background check of the transferee under the Brady Law in connection with the transfer of an NFA firearm? No. Although 18 U.S.C. §...
If this had been answered before please steer me in the right direction as my search was fruitless. I have cast and shot my bullets well over half my life, rifle, and handguns. I would like an informed answer as to whether it is advisable to shoot a cast bullet through a suppressor...
I have been using a fixture made from DOM tubing to hold and true short pistol and rifle barrels in the four jaw for cutting and threading. Until recently have not had a problem until I mounted a Buckmark 4 incher. After taping the barrel I mounted as usual and upon removal found that there were...
Re: What is the longest time a gunsmith took? + What STR says. I still have a rifle and a handgun in a shop past after a little over a year and a half. It is no more than an amusement now. That is why i started doing my own also. Life is but so long and there are many guns to shoot yet.
Re: Buying a Lathe Just for information purposes. I use a G0709 and it has been a great machine with the best customer service a person could wish for. So far as HSS tooling is concerned, using it allows you to turn slower and still maintain a smoother finish than carbide. Carbide tooling...

Re: Supersonic Crack - How Loud? Does the bullet crack once when it becomes supersonic and again as it becomes subsonic while slowing down? Is the crack you hear at 100 yd pit the same one as the one the same bullet makes at the 600 yd pit. Since the bullet reaches supersonic before it exits...
Greetings, If I have posted this in the wrong place accept my appologies and move it. I this Summer aquired my 07/FFL and 02/SOT. I have started a small gunsmithing and machine shop. I intend to build some suppressors and may sell a few as I have customers that are intersted. If I understand...
Re: AAC 7.62 Availability I was looking for a 7.62 SDN 6. I have since got some on the way from Allen Arms Tactical in South Carolina. Very straight up people that were a pleasure to talk with, of whom, realize a small buisness's money spends also.
Re: AAC 7.62 Availability I called AAC and finally got someone on the phone and they were so ugly acting I really dont care if I use any of their stuff any more but thats what the customer wanted, so ok.
Just curious if AAC 7.62's are scarce since I called 9 wholesalers before I found one for a customer. Said he had just recieved a good order. If they are that hard to get yet, I may buy more than two. Thanks
Re: Barrel Marking?? My FFL inspector informed me you are required to do nothing to a barrel, only a reciever if you manufacture one from scratch, or if you dedicate one for a sbr. Then it must have company name and location.

Re: Decent lathe for starting out? Update, pm'ed Papa Grizzly yesterday and he found that my machine was in stock at the time! I checked this morning and he had it shipped yesterday and it arrives in Jackson Ms. from Springfield Mo. this afternoon for pickup. Great news and a big thumbs up...
Re: Decent lathe for starting out? What ever model you decide on don't be in a hurry. I ordered a G0709 Grizzly in mid March and was pushed back another month this morning. Don't be fooled by advertisements of a million square feet of warehouses, they may be full of backorders. I would try to...
Re: Issues with Chargemaster (maybe) Don't beat on it. If you are really concerned about it's accuracy find the cal weights and check it. It is a precision instrument, though it should be calibrated from time to time.. If you doubt it check against another scale.
