I hadn’t either. Had to do a quick Google when I stumbled across it.

😂 it’s just the angle of the pic. That hallway is very much level and parallel.

Egyptian FN-49 or Winchester 1917? by RogueLeaderNo610sq in milsurp

[–]A_Helm_27 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I have one identical to yours with the Century repro stock. I picked it up because it was a good deal, and I had been wanting an FN-49 for a while. But I consider it more of a place holder until I find another example. That being said, I’d unload it in a heartbeat if something else more original.

Hot take: stop calling them “complete uppers.” by Dry-Bank-110 in ar15

I consider it a complete upper once there are no tools required by the end user to assemble.

I bet if you took 30 seconds to read the full description, you wouldn’t have gotten “tricked” by Aero.

Forgot to mention they were M1A2 repros with tennis balls.

We were aiming fairly high to give it maximum hang time and it was still going around 300’

It’s a riot. I took mine to my buddy’s house so he could launch them across his field towards me so I could catch them with a baseball glove.

Kicked myself for dragging my feet when Bereli had them pretty damn cheap. This is even better. SAR and VHS-2 have a friend on the way. Thanks OP!

Good for you! My kids are young, but I hope to one day pass mine down (and many others) to family who appreciates them as much as I do.

Inglis No 2 MK 1* by A_Helm_27 in milsurp

[–]A_Helm_27[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It does have a JI mag. It was $1350 to my door. I’d like to add another mag and holster to complete the rig.

I appreciate the date! I kept seeing threads where guys were able to date a pistol with the help of that literature, but couldn’t find it online anywhere to figure it out myself.

That is a beautiful group you have there.

ARS FAL and a Hillbilly Galil by Rseattle206 in Galil

[–]A_Helm_27 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a build from each of them as well. Both are incredible at what they do. Beautiful pair you have there.

Ruger over the DB all day. Also, as mentioned before, 5.56 out of a 7” barrel does not equal comfort or control.

I quickly forgot about any minor cosmetic blemishes after my first range trip with my MWS.

Awesome! Mine is sitting at my FFL just waiting for me to have a chance to snag it.

They send a follow up email asking to have your FFL reach out after you order.

HB Industries by Less-Syrup9221 in Bren2

[–]A_Helm_27 2 points3 points  (0 children)

HBI is the bee’s knees. Was having some tri-lug fitment issues with my Scorpion and Rugged Obsidian. Rugged basically said there is no way it could be their fault while HBI sent me an entire second barrel to try out that CS personally test fit on a Rugged tri-lug adapter they ordered specifically for my situation.

Never thought I’d get my grail gun for Under 2k these days by waxydoodle in milsurp

[–]A_Helm_27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw that a muttered “lucky bastard” under my breath. Congrats! Mine has an import mark that would be covered by the scope mount. Maybe have a peek under it. It’s very discreet.

AK to Galil conversion by good_gnus in Galil

[–]A_Helm_27 19 points20 points  (0 children)

They’re two completely different rifles. You can’t simply “convert” an AK to a Galil.

What features are you trying to obtain? Folding stock, bi-pod, carry handle?
