seat heat in my daddy’s cadillac shorted out and burned my ass, burned a hole in my Javon The Freak Kearse jersey.

Let me tell you about seat heat.


But not to digress, think I’ll start rollin with my pre ban Tec 9

My ar stays under my daughter’s bed.

i was going to ask if it was a Ljungmann, but knowing you, I'm betting on a Hakim

AC Code
May 44 production
WW2 Walther 8mm G43
Hitlers " Garand"
All 7#,s match
No import marks.
Stock had been severely molested by previous owner.
That is my work to get it semi original appearing and presentable
Woulda been about a 2200 rifle if the stock wasnt fugged with.
Original front sight hood missing and cleaning rod
Bout 1500 1600 value in the pic.
Original mag alone worth 275 300 ish.

Ya I stole it for 275.......
Aint my job to educate a seller.



The 2 you mention were based off this and the soviet svt 40.
As were chezch vz 58,s and several other mil platforms.
Vz 58 is the apex of the design JMO.
The G43 was based off the SVT intially.
SVT is a supreior weapon and the grandfather of the design.
G43,s had metalurgy issues in the rear cradle area of the receiver.

275 bucks " didnt work" per previous owner.
2 days of me 100% disassembly and cleaning and assembly got it up and running.
Took it out to slumlords.
Ran 10 thru it fast as i could squeeze the trigger.
Next clip started failure to extract and eject.
Had a tiny screw adjustment for extractor tension and retention.
Feild stripped it , tiny spring pops outta extractor.
Fugg.........
We searched for it then had ta roll back to his house get a metal detector to find it.
Gawd.....
I coulda bought a new spring kit for the entire rifle for around 95 bucks.
Between that and the metalurgy issues.
Made the decision.
Was gonna keep it
Take it on a token deer hunt once in awhile.
Then thinking about parts to be found if somethng went south.

Traded it for my Arsenal SLR 100H type 3.
No regrets.....
Rather have a working tool than a collector " my precious type of thing".




I see these come up for sale from time to time...one day I'll have a moment of weakness and bite .

Love the history on these old guns.

That would be a tough one to part with.

No,...I'm serious. Firearms are something that I've played with. For a while it was FALs, then something else,..then something else.

My safe was full of firearms that I had played with until I was done with them. So I passed a lot of them along.

I didn't disarm myself, however. A particularly reliable Kel-Tec SU-16 resides beside the bed and there's a lightweight AR stuck in a closet somewhere around here.

For recreational shooting, I've come full circle. I've been having a lot of fun playing with a bargain priced semi auto .22 rifle and I've got a hankering for a Henry .22 magnum pump rifle. The next time I find one when I'm knocking around the gun shops it'll probably come home with me.

To show you how boring I am,..a very nice old 4" Ruger Police Service Six stays close most of the time. I've got some more hi-tech handguns. But double action revolvers have been one of my things for a long time. They fit my hand and they hit where they seem like they should.

I have no such experience on how to build one out, or what aftermarket parts to add.

Here’s my question...I bought 3 Sig M400’s years ago. Two carbines and one shorty....

I went with the Sig M400 because at the time they had pretty good reviews on functionality and above average accuracy. They are pretty accurate and haven’t caused me any repeative malfunctions...Which is good.

With that said...If I wanted to buy a turn-key AR shorty in 5.56 is there a couple manufactures and models you would suggest that make an all around, solid, weapon?

If my Sigs are good to go, I’m happy to keep them....But, if they’ye Junk, my feelings won’t be hurt if there’s a lot better turn-key options available today.

😎

They aint junk.
Drop a 3pd velocity single stage curved shoe in em.
Or go full blown and do a elftmann.
Put on a VG6 gamma 5.56 comp brake
Gun will run like a horizontal sewing machine needle then.
Will have ta rezero.

Lol!!!
Thats not the one I'm getting.
Mine is in much better condition
That pic is off the web.
I'm good....
Gonna get the aftermarket grip made by FAB defense for em with the thumb mag release and slight grip extension under the slide.
Of course keep the red bakelite grip.
Get an extra mag maybe 2.
It will be GTG.
Something to go along with my commie type 3.

You ever run across the Iraqi Tariq/ berreta clones????
Some decent qual
Some, I swear ta god were made with a large hand file set.

Lol!!!

My opinion on ARs these days is, "parts is parts".

You can buy one with the particular features you want,..but the bones of one is going to be as good as the bones of another.

I bought a Bushmaster QRC a while ago just because it had the very light barrel and no sight on the front gas block. (scope is a given for me these days) It tips the scales at a tad under 6 lbs and is bare bones and bargain priced.

It's exactly what I wanted in an AR,..basic and very light.
