Does that last rifle have a ZIP-22 mounted on it?

yep, in its elite tactical configuration, when you need a .22 that jams every what? one round?

You know, in that configuration, the gun requires a tax stamp. Technically it's an SBR.
 
the zip 22 was designed from the get-go as an under barrel firearm. The dumbass who designed it forgot to add an extractor.
 
So they finally nuked fosscad from twitter. In addition to Ivan the troll, and Imura I am thinking of dumping some links to other places to find this stuff. However you can find https://fosscad.org on their own site.

Gab is gay as shit but most of the above mentioned setup back ups there. There is also https://liberator12k.com/ Run by Jeff Rodriguez.

https://www.kommandoblog.com/ has more if need be. As most of the people related to 3d printing have some connection somewhere to /k/fags

Guys don't now its too late and the genie is out of the bottle. Heck I would argue there never was a bottle in the first place.

 
Oh no no no, I'm not about to break any federal laws. I mean I'm nervous handing all of my information over to the ATF. I guess I've seen too many memes about them being trigger happy dog-killers.
I have 6 stamps now. Aside wait the ATF hasn't been too bad to deal with really. Granted I know one day they will Ruby Ridge me just because it amuses them.

Also I'm waiting for the new hi point and PSA mp5... ugh waiting sucks and I promised no more toys till they come.

The big tragedy about that is that the company used to make THE BEST Single Action Army-style revolvers made. Even better than real Colt SAAs. And their owner completely fucked the whole company because of that failed abortion of a gun. I mean, fuck, they were even made in Colt's old "Blue Dome" factory. I really wanted to get one, but when I finally had the scratch they had ended production in favor of that poorly-designed plastic hunk of shit.

That's fucking horrible. I've always wanted a good quality SAA and to see some of the best go away over a trashy gimmicky .22 just saddens me.

I'm not overly upset about the tax stamp process, but it pisses me off when they cash your check right at getting the form, but then wait months to send your stamp back to you. If you can cash my check, you can send my shit to me.

I'm very excited about the PSA MP5 clone. I would love to have a pistol caliber SBR as a home defense weapon, but I honestly quibble over using a stamped weapon for anything other than range fun.

Depends on your state, in mine they are protected and able to be carried if you can.

Yes I've went and bought milk with something with a giggle switch just to say I have. Also I'm far from alone using a can on my HD AR because FUCK is 223 loud indoors.

I'm not trying to be funny, but seriously if you've not had to suffer shooting an AR inside with a shorter barrel, it's enough to jar you. Now that's calm chilling at an indoor range. If you figure in HD I'll be woken up at 2am it'll be dark (can keeps from a muzzle flame too) it's not just to say LOL shot you with a title 2 gun, it's so I have some extra chance if indeed I have to pull the trigger and one rule about gun fights, is stack the deck best you can.

When the PSA clone comes out, if at all it's possible I'll snag a suppressed barrel and make my own mp5SD if not I am not sure if and when I'll get it to SBR because I'll probably get the a2 clone due to looks. Again this all comes once it's able to be touched and ordered, I've shot a2/3 and a K. Lovely guns but the geek in me needs it because PSA is making the locking action just like HK and stamped (super good stamping can be really nice HK has insanely nice machine tools and stamps well).

That being said, I'm pressing some 9x19 tonight sipping bourbon. What all gun stuff is going on with anyone else?

I got a huge hickory shootin' stump out back that's about shot out, after I don't know how much lead has been dumped into it. Saw a '06 ball squirt through the other day, so the backyard range is now restricted to pistols/.22, until I can build a solid backstop. The cheapest thing I can think of is basically what IV8888 uses.

There's some houses a little over a mile away, on past hilly pasture & thick old hardwoods. Cattle & donkeys ain't often in em; but when they are, they're often concealed behind foliage & terrain, but not exactly covered.

My plan is to cut/dig a little trough as close to the taproot as possible, under the main target area, down to a spot for ye' olde' lead smelter (iron skillet).

Then drop an open-ended 55gal drum on top, fill it full of combustibles, and burn it flat with a leaf-blower to kick it up a notch. Most of the copper & lead should collect in the pan.

Someone has been shootin' what was originally a big knot close to the ground for a long time before I started. And until today, there's probably been at least 1k or more rounds of all types planted in the stump. And here I thought oak stumps were tougher as backstops.

As a small rant, I never shoot at live trees; of all things the enviromentalists & conservation types could agree upon, it's that. I've found some healthy, mighty, old trees that fell or died a few years after being shot at during a plinking session, and it's either bugs or rot that finishes the job. And when those trees are next to structures or powerlines?

The most glaring example I can think of, was a massive fir tree next to my best-friend's grandparent's barn. A couple years ago while I was there, some cousins showed up with .22s, and put maybe a couple dozen into a paper target nailed to the trunk.

And when I stopped by this past spring, saw that a tree probably 100yrs old when the barn was built 75yrs ago, had snapped at eyelevel, and taken out said barn.
Lucky for those cousins, is that they're distant enough to get away with it.
 
I'm not big on guns. Not because I don't like or dislike them, I'm fairly neutral. It's just I haven't had all that much exposure to them in my part of the world. That said, I've been watching Forgotten Weapons, a pretty fascinating channel, if I may say so, myself.

Right now, I'm watching a video on a Vietnamese copy of another gun, that doesn't appear to be all that well made. It's still quite interesting to me, though.

It isn't so much the legality (Carry & use of stamped weapons is fine in my state.), but the possible headaches involved if a defensive shooting were ever brought up in front of a prosecuting office for whatever reason. I use an Ithaca 37 as my home defense gun. Loaded with #4 buckshot, has one of those barrel/tube light mounts, and a bead sight -- because if you put anything other than a bead on a defensive shotgun, you're an idiot. I like ARs, but realistically I want to pull the trigger once in a defensive shooting. A shotgun is far more likely to incapacitate on the first shot than an AR will.

I have a pair of Peltors sitting on the night stand next to my shotgun. If I don't have three seconds to clamp hearing protection on my head, then I've fucked up every other aspect of home defense. Ultimately I would like a prosecuting office to read "man defends self with shotgun" rather than "man defends self with suppressed short-barreled rifle." Having a stamped weapon might make them look twice, which might mean more legal fees and headaches for me and my insurance. Fuck that, if I can't handle whatever is happening with seven rounds of #4, I'm either fucking famous or fucking dead.

On the subject of PSA's MP5s, I am extremely eager to get my hands on one to SBR it. MP5s just ooze that 80s and 90s SWAT cool that I love so much. Any recommendations on a 9mm can? I'm also considering building a 9mm upper for a Colt SMG (not automatic) build. 9mm subguns are some of the funnest guns out there to shoot.
 
^ I'll take the ear pro i have hanging off my HD rifle over a stamped legal can, for no other reason than I don't want to give my democrat da, governor, sheriff, and city council a collective boner.

I'd think you'd want the earpro even with a can anyway, unless you were fucking about with nothing bigger than .22LR.

(I didn't really use indoor ranges often and certainly not with intermediate cartridges, so whatever.)

oh, I'd love to have both in a self defense situation, but the use of a suppressor, like I said, could have some ugly political/law enforcement repercussions, and just ears for 1 or 2 shots inside the house lower the odds of permanent hearing loss signifigantly.

Both that and I want my neighbors to know there's a party going on at my place and that they're free to invite the police if I haven't already.

Yeah I know reality I'll probably SBR it but one, I'm lazy, two I dunno if you can apply for an SBR on a gun you don't own yet? I probably will want an SBR out of my mp5 tbh. I'll also bite down and do it.

Now to cans, I fucking love liberty https://libertycans.net/ I have a friend that works there and he lets me shoot prototypes and uses me as research (woe is me) but aside my awesome hook up I love how they are made I'm an geek for mechanics and also these are great to clean and tune since I rarely use proper sub sonics I just am trying to save what hearing I have. It's so cool you can stack the can to deal with a larger hotter round or, rebuild it (in seconds mind you) for proper sub sonic and make a whisper out of it.

That being said I also own a gemtech and love it. I've spent time with a lot of cans and I like my hook up and I'm very lucky it's something I get to help direct plan the brand and I find to be the best offerings.

forgive double posting

fuck em my state covers it, civil court who cares because legit some nigger judge will allow you to move on someone farted at you... my state will help me thank goodness, I can cite full autos SBRs DDs used in HD situations where the case comes "lol no".

Aside that I try to think realistically, 223 is fucking LOUD inside trust me, if you've ever fired 308 or something else 30 cal indoors I'll be frank it's crippling. The can is to help me keep my self ready for a follow up or engage a second if needed. If I popped my short barrel mosin indoors I'd probably be almost as bad as the sucker on the bullet end. (but not on fire)

Speed helps and I also like to try to be real and I'll be not on my top game etc etc, so trying to put ears on is tricky when I heard my door kicked in at 3am.

i fully support and suggest you do you, but I rather my canned rifle than worry about ears esp when I'm groggy and scared.
