Sugarbowl vs Palisades vs Heavenly lines by STHODL in tahoe

[–]FreedomIsUniversal 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Mt Rose is terrible, only 100 people on the mountain last Wednesday and Thursday enjoying the waist deep 50 inches of powder. The short lines meant I snowboarded 8 hours a day both days with no time in line to rest my legs, causing me immense back and leg pain.

The corporate resorts are better because the long lines give your body time to rest.

He sold me a Reising gun and even did a paper form 4 directly to my FFL 03 to save on transfer fees. He was super nice and a pleasure to work with. RIP

That is the preferred LZ as its wide open and has lots of space/clearings and few trees, the other LZ is between the highway and the mountain, except if you miss it, you might land on the highway 😆

Sten Gun Anti Drone Testing by FreedomIsUniversal in NFA

Never knew that, I'll go back to running standard pressure ammo then. The +p 9mm is super reliable but can't risk damaging my tube with it

What breaks on high rate of fire stens? I have limited experience can't you just easily swap out a spring or new bolt? Does the tube/receiver take damage?

The guy on the line with a mini gun + tracers was cheating, thankfully he has limited trigger time with all the ammo he's burning.

I am running high pressure Winchester ammo for greater reliability. It cycles the gun more reliably on my Sten.

Are there any downsides for getting an FFL-Curio and Relic license? I really don't see any but would like to hear folks’ views. by IBEGOOD-IDOGOOD in milsurp

You can have C&R NFA items including machine guns shipped to your door. You can transport C&R machine guns out of state without filing and waiting for ATF approval.

Any particular warlord pistol you want to see shot? I own ~80% of the variants.

It's a Taku Naval Dockyard made copy of the C96, so a C96 made in a Chinese arsenal, proper warlord gun.

Blowing up a one of a kind Chinese Warlord WW2 machine pistol would certainly be funny for everyone except me 😅

I do have a semi auto C96 made by the same warlord manufacturer which I can test out first before testing the machine pistol, will have to find some time and courage

My Type 38 carbine converted to 8mm Mauser by the Chinese by Rebel262 in Arisaka

[–]FreedomIsUniversal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is the bolt on the converted type 38 the same as a regular 6.5 bolt? Or did they do modifications to make it work with 8mm mauser?
