  1. 6 months ago? 3 months ago Bulgarian 74bkits with plum furniture were selling for $185 on gunbroker. No way I'd pay current prices. I just finished a amd65 and ready to build more..but I'll wait. Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk 2
  2. Saying a Century Arms trigger is superior to a AR trigger is ludicrous since they are most likely using mil surplus or tapco triggers...which is not boasting for Century since its not their product lol. You folks get so upset when someone dogs your brand. If 9 of 10 say its shit, then it might be shit. Lets face fact. None of these manufacturers actually manufacture anything...or at least not most of them. They're just slapping together parts made decades ago. If its built off a Russian, Bulgarian, Hungarian or Polish donor and it goes bang it's prolly a damn good gun. Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk 2
  3. Anyone near Nashville (prefer north nash) have a setup like a spot welder I can use at your house or your shop to weld in my lower rails? All I have is a flux wire welder and its too hot for thin metal like a receiver. I'm not really in a hurry. Thanks Rob Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk 2
  4. Anyone know what happened to Second Amendment Gun Shop in Springfield, TN? This place looks shut down, and has been that way for a few weeks. I've been wondering what happened to them and thought it would be posted on here, but so far I haven't seen anything. Last time I drove by, there was some sort of stickers near the front door, the door was wide open, and it looked like it has been ransacked. There was also a jobsite dumpster out front that would make you assume either #1. It's going to be tore down or #2. It's going to be remodeled. However, nothing has changed since this showed up there. It was my favorite gun shop b/c the owner rocked, and you could shoot all day for $5 whereas if I go somewhere like G&L or Ashberrys, I have to pay $20 and worst case at the latter, I have to buy THEIR bullets. Thanks for any info. Not trying to start ****, Just wondering.
  5. I've owned my Ruger LCP since February and STILL love it like the day I got it. Using a Stickopuali pocket holster.

    IO Inc ?

    Maybe it was a AK-47C and not a AKM47. Regardless it was black polymer...non collapsible stock. Had a real nice front hand grip that was black polymer too. So, is that a good thing Mike?

    IO Inc ?

    In reference to my last thread located here: http://www.tngunowners.com/forums/showthread.php?t=19323 I think I've decided to stay away from Century. Another brand I saw today was IO Inc and it was about $20 less than the Century. Anyone ever dealt with this company? The AKM47 I held felt great. Thanks for the info, and sorry for posting 2 similar threads. I searched IO Inc and didn't find anything.
  10. Hi guys, I wanted to build my own AK47 from a kit. I've been looking around and trying to find a good deal on a kit. It seems when I started looking they were going for $250ish without the receiver. Now it seems they are going for $350+. By the time I buy a good receiver for $100ish that puts me at $450. My time + getting the receiver blue'd = $100 or so (guessing). Plus I would change the wood stock/grips/handle with composite so that would cost a good deal as well. Anyway, to get to my point. I went to a gun shop today and was looking at a Century Arms AK-47. The price was "decent". Not anywhere near as cheap as I wanted to go, but still nice. So, I decided to come home and do some research. I started looking up this brand, and back 2 years ago, the reviews were horrible. These guns were the "highpoints of ak-47's". They were like $250 then (complete) and the reviews were bad. I haven't been able to find any reviews other than old reviews on them. I don't want to make a mistake, and want to learn about all the different AK's available. I'd still rather build my own, but I'm willing to look into other options. I like the black synthetic look much better than the wood look. So what's the good/bad/ugly of this brand? Also what do you guys think about a noobie building his own gun? I have good basic hand tools/power tools skills. I do a lot of work with my hands and can get around well. Any thoughts?
  11. We have a black Stoeger that looks identical to a Benelli compsite. Shoots great...came with 5 chokes, looks just like a Benelli, and was like $300 brand new. 12 gauge of course. I think the model is the P-350 in black synthetic.
  12. That second pic looks a helluva lot better than the first!
  13. As hard as ammo is to find, I may put a couple boxes on Craigslist to share the wealth..unless they kick it off.
  14. Not my cup of tea, but someone spent some good time on those.
  15. Love mine. To answer your question, I did get my holster, and it's great. It's a Stickopauli dot com pocket holster. The quality is excellent and I love the tan color. That guy goes above and beyond for customer service. I carry this gun everywhere I go...can't even tell it's there. I've also worn shorts and it doesn't weigh me down. I like my side piece too, but summer time is coming up quick!
