Thanks for the insight, that would make sense from a business standpoint. I guess my best option is either buy a mill and lathe and make a new receiver from scratch, or buy one already made, but have to register it. And yes, I have also researched the differences between the two (semi vs select...

Sorry for the late reply, but here's the CAD file, not sure how well the file dimensions are, I have never seen anyone build one from scratch with this yet. But hey its something lol, there's also a couple files for other part of the gun too. https://grabcad.com/library/msar-aug-receiver-2

Hmm, that would make sense. I figured if there was some kind of overproduction of castings, or a incomplete receiver that has to be scrapped, they wouldn't mind if someone sent over a couple hundred bucks for that scrap. I don't recall Steyr markings being present on the castings, proof marks...

Been awhile since I've visited here, but I just couldn't stop thinking about this question. Would it be possible for someone to buy completely blank receiver castings from manufacturers? example, would PSA be able to just sell blank 0% receivers straight out of the forge to customers who...

Thanks for the post Camo, I feel a lot of people (especially in the gun community) don't fully know the difference between bb guns and airsoft and just figure as them being the same thing, very informative :) The only reason I got into guns in the first place was because of airsoft, and has...

TNTE had some nice looking complete uppers last time I checked, lots a different varieties you can get too. I bought a A1 "slab side" not too long ago but it seems they don't sell it alone anymore. https://www.tntesales.com/a1 Though I will warn you, and I'm not sure if this is still an issue...

Haven't been out at any shops lately, but from what I hear from friends and facebook, almost all businesses are out of ammo completely, and trying to restock as quick as possible. State considers them "essential" so they're still able to keep their shops open, though some of them shut their...

Lol, I'll contact my cousin to see if he can take pics when he gets the chance (the guy works a bunch and is almost never home), it's under his name for the time being because CT doesn't allow select fire machine guns, he lives in a much more gun friendly state . I know it kinda contradicts what...

I remember watching a Forgetten Weapons video on the OA-96, I found them to be really cool, risky approach but I think it was done well. AWB or not, I'd keep one in the safe :) Also thanks for the link, reading the thread it seems like they had a few more idea with this thing than I realized...

A kid in one of my old rifle teams used to have a BI-7-2 in its original configuration when he first started competing. He tried using it for our 50 meter competition but wouldn't hold up as well to the Walthers and Anschutz we used, but still very much accurate for a beginner like him, it was...

All of the above I guess haha It's still full auto capable, and the stock and folding grip still work too. Barrel is 6 inches, though I plan on making a longer barrel from a Lothar Walther 9x18 blank in the future so I can run it suppressed :)

No matter what scenario it is, my PM-63 will be with me. Loved the things when I first saw them as a kid, and still my #1 favorite gun today. I think they're great to shoot and very handy, regardless of what others might tell you. I was lucky enough to find one for sale, and even more lucky...

Wow, I've never even heard of those Sub Tek uppers, just checked them out, thanks Loco. Also saw that Prexis ZK upper, but it seems like that upper was a huge let down. Sad the Sub Tek is no longer being being made. Though I guess someone else in the future will bring something new to the table.

Oh wow, so he's certainly had lots of time with full autos! I'm sure he has you to thank for giving him a very enjoyable experience :) Thank you for teaching him how to properly handle these kinds of firearms, wish there were more guys like you that are willing to do something like that.

Lucky you were using CF-W A bolt, and he was old enough to handle a full auto, would've been a pretty bad experience if he was smaller and it was a standard bolt. Remember when that nine year old girl accidentally shot that range instructor in Arizona with a FA? Never really felt comfortable...

Good point, I guess AR pistols haven't really been as big like they are today, and since they weren't FA capable there would be quite a limited number of people that would want one. I'd much prefer the Olympic lol, sounds like the ARC wasn't too much of a joy to shoot. Would be a decent idea now...

Fair enough I guess the only way to do it then is to have the mag go through the AR magwell, though it might not be able to to clear it since the MAC magazine is slightly wider than the AR magwell, atleast judging from the 10 round Zytels I have. Maybe it can work with Sten mag converted MACs...

I can see issues with the weight and disassembly, I would imagine the thing would be extremely heavy since it has to rely on the mass of the bolt and all that weight is so far forward. I didn't think the sights looked too bad, then again I've never seen one of these in person lol. Sucks about...

Thanks for the pics pj, the upper in the second pic you posted looks like it can certainly fit with minimal work. Can the AR takedown pins fit through the takedown pin hole for the MAC? Or would it not fit/be too loose?

Wow, now THAT is quite a project, so I guess it is possible to put a MAC upper on a AR lower. Didn't even know it was posted on UziTalk either, search bar doesn't pull up anything for me if I look it up. Seems like he did a lot of work to get that upper on with the mags he was using. Love the...
