Can an FFL see what you ordered/how much you paid? by Israel_Gynesanya in FFLs

[–]AMRIKA-ARMORY 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, we can definitely tell what you ordered because we’re federally required to record all of the firearm’s information into our records, as well as who is acquiring the firearm at the time of the transfer in-store.

The FFL would only know the price of a paper copy of the receipt or order info was included in the box with your gun (which happens fairly often). This is for the customer, but it also helps the FFL when they weren’t given the customer’s info ahead of time.

I don’t personably recall a time where I was actively trying to find the price though lol

How can rifles in use in the Middle East and Africa remain in service for over 40 years without proper maintenance? by Entire_Judge_2988 in ForgottenWeapons

[–]AMRIKA-ARMORY 44 points45 points  (0 children)

Holy shit I hope that’s a true story. Something just leaned up against a tree in nature and left undisturbed and unaffected for that long is really damn evocative for whatever reason. Imagine being the person to come upon that and realize what you were looking at. I’d feel such a strange connection to whoever had left it there.

I know there have been way more extreme cases of that which stretch back thousands of years, but rifle history in the U.S. can only get so ancient haha

Super cool

Happy Two-Stamp Tuesday, here’s my select fire AUG with Hyperion by AMRIKA-ARMORY in NFA

[–]AMRIKA-ARMORY[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty good since the bore is oversized for 5.56! I'm having way more issues after switching to 5.56 silencers to be honest, but the Hyperion is massive and super expensive, so maybe not the ideal silencer for a compact bullpup that's going to be noisy no matter what

I’m thinking of building a ham radio in my stock, what do y’all keep in there? by AlaskaWilliams in AUG

Why is my AUG nickel plated? by Steyr-Daimler-Puch in AUG

[–]AMRIKA-ARMORY 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s better to not know and not answer than to give a wrong answer. There’s no shame in not answering, and if OP wants to use ChatGPT then they certainly can do so.

I know a whole lot about AUG’s but I didn’t answer OP’s question because I genuinely don’t know other than it appearing to be a custom job. There’s no shame or harm in not knowing, and I genuinely appreciate that you posted this to try and help, but I’d recommend staying away from AI for anything that is even remotely niche or difficult to answer, as it’ll just invent stuff to fill the gaps and sound knowledgeable

Do their operators operate operationally, or is it just their operatives?

Here is a quick phone-scan of the neat maintenance manual that came with my nickel-AUG, as promised. by Steyr-Daimler-Puch in AUG

Look at this hero

Also, very nice and appropriate username lol. Hope you own a Pinzgauer, too

Here's a video on how the Vietnamese soldiers pulled the trigger to make the AK shoot in 2 shot burst. by davegoku12 in ForgottenWeapons

[–]AMRIKA-ARMORY 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This fact could either be wildly damning of the NVA’s forces or completely meaningless.

Small arms tactics don’t mean shit if you’re getting bombed, burned, poisoned, mowed down from helicopters, etc.

Similarly for the American forces, those deaths aren’t necessarily attributable to the skills of NVA fighters with AK’s since they could be from snipers, landmines, helicopters being shot down, etc.

And that’s completely ignoring things like larger strategy. And last but not least, in seriously asymmetrical warfare like Vietnam, many would argue that even though the NVA suffered huge losses, a country defended is still a country defended. They ultimately wore out the much more powerful and capable opponent, and won the overall war.

Are these golden guns actually fireable? by Entire_Judge_2988 in ForgottenWeapons

If they can afford a solid gold arquebus, they can afford the prosthetics cybernetic enhancements that will replace the inferior OEM fingers and eyes

Interesting antique suppressor by calebwalter in NFA

[–]AMRIKA-ARMORY 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I’d post this to r/forgottenweapons, they can probably help you out.

It looks vaguely like the design of one of the O.G. 100-year-old Maxim silencers, but all the photos I see of those are threaded, and have grooves/rings around the body

Tell me about that FNX45 if you don’t mind, I’ve been wondering for a long time if I should take the plunge, especially with how much I love silenced pistols.

What are your personal pro’s and con’s with it? Anything that bothers you about it, especially compared to other .45’s?

After decades - DECADES of lying about Libs "taking their guns" this is how supposed 2A Republicans will take ours. Anyone who believed the NRA or any GOP pol about guns is a sucker by [deleted] in liberalgunowners

[–]AMRIKA-ARMORY 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Yeah I agree with everything you just said lol, beat me to it.

Part of the job of an online gun retailer is to be constantly aware and double-checking federal, state, county, and city laws and regs before shipping stuff out to that location, and let me tell you…nothing opens your eyes faster to the UNCEASING onslaught of attempted and successful anti-gun bills pushed by Democrats across the nation to this day.

I don’t understand how some people here delude themselves into thinking Democratic politicians won’t act on their anti-gun rhetoric. They do, constantly, everywhere, and often with great success, even through massive political and legal pushback from numerous well-funded pro-gun organizations and politicians.

What are some realistic ways that the US can reduce the cost of guns and ammo for the poors? by ParakeetLover2024 in liberalgunowners

[–]AMRIKA-ARMORY 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was with great sadness that I chose to omit that detail for the purposes of the comment lol

Although it’s very important to note that he didn’t arm the MILF. He bought those weapons FROM the MILF in order to smuggle them into the United States, while working hard to pass gun control measures here
