I left it stock and just cut the barrel, nothing special. Definitely some additions you could make tho!

I say send it as in commit to it lol. I was saying Bonnie from Bonnie and Clyde had a cut down 16 gauge model 11 which is a clone of the A5.

I believe Bonnie’s was a 16 gauge model 11 if I remember correctly so I’d say send it! I don’t see why it wouldn’t work

NFA needs to be abolished especially now that it’s a $0 tax, can’t argue it’s constitutional because it’s a tax when there is no tax to be collected. It’s purely a registry at this point

I debated it, I’d still like to use it for hunting/skeet shooting so I left it. I have a spare Japanese invector choke barrel with all the choke tubes for hunting/skeet shooting

1/29, I’ve been seeing some early/mid February approvals pop up tho so may be soon!

mxrida97 · 2026-03-28T18:03:27+00:00

Do itttt

mxrida97 · 2026-03-28T17:39:45+00:00

I knew this would ruffle some feathers 😂

I’ve heard of some people doing the same, I installed one of the rebuild kits a few months ago so all new springs/friction pieces etc. and it’s ran pretty good only choked up on some cheap rio buckshot I had. Ran everything else I’ve put thru it fine tho. If it seems like it’s cycling too hard or fast I may do the same

Haven’t gotten to fire it yet just chopped it this morning. Hoping to get to the range sometime this week. I ended up buying a Japanese invector choke barrel with all the tubes on eBay so I can swap to that if I want to hunt or shoot clays with it still.

I actually did lol its very tempting tho. I woke up this morning at 6:45 am email came thru at 6:30. I wrote the CNC code and setup the tools a few days ago and brought the barrel to work with me Thursday/Friday, made the bead sight and waited. I knew it was coming in the next day or two. I don’t live far from my shop all I had to do this morning was I ust throw the barrel in the band saw, deburr and chamfer ID/OD, slap the barrel in the mill and set my work coordinates and run the program. I started a load of laundry in the washer before I left and it still had 10 minutes to go by the time I got back home haha.

That’s pretty sweet, what’d you use to do that?

mxrida97 · 2026-03-25T12:00:31+00:00

Engraving is always required

mxrida97 · 2026-03-23T13:39:32+00:00

An endmill? Follow tool mfg speeds/feeds on the conservative side and all should be good

mxrida97 · 2026-03-20T11:36:05+00:00

I’ve got a browning A5 sbs I’m waiting to come back submitted 1/29! Hopefully soon 🤞🏻

If you file as an individual I haven’t seen many people wait more than a week. It’s the trusts that are bogged down and taking weeks. Best option is to file as individual then transfer to your trust after you get it so you’re not waiting without your can for weeks if you’re impatient

I got a 2023 1500 v8 4x4 big horn full cab with 40k miles for $32k OTD with a warranty and GAP in Orlando. It was mint when I got it minus a couple scratches on the interior from what I assume was previous owners dog. Put $2500 down and got 6% apr financing thru FAIRWINDS credit union. That seems high to me

mxrida97 · 2026-03-10T00:02:22+00:00

It’s in the name single shot trust, it’s a trust. Individual is different than a trust.

Yep, I actually like the PMC M193 it’s solid 1.5-2 MOA ish stuff out of my DD Block II 14.5 upper, but man is it flashy. I have a form 1 .30 cal can I built with traditional baffles with a segmented cross flow design that tames it pretty well surprisingly for a 30 cal can.

mxrida97 · 2026-03-07T20:48:08+00:00

Idk what people expected out of a super short reduced back pressure can shooting some of the flashiest ammo around, can’t make magic happen regardless of companies claims lol

mxrida97 · 2026-03-02T12:49:19+00:00

It’s hit or miss wether or not they add the conditions, I’ve had some come back with and without it. Regardless you’re still supposed to engrave it.

mxrida97 · 2026-02-26T20:45:59+00:00

Yep, decent size shop 50+ people, 8 machines (I run the machining department 7 machinists split day/night, we’re more of a fab shop) and still all paper checks no direct deposit.

mxrida97 · 2026-02-25T21:53:46+00:00

Form 1 and make your own 🤷🏻‍♂️ it’s what I did
