You sir are a fount of knowledge and resources. It is sure nice to have you be a participant in our small group of like minded individuals pursuing sometimes trivial diversions.

I fooled around with 400 Corbon in my 1911s a few years ago. I made my own cases out of re-formed .45ACP brass. It all worked, but in the end I determined that the 400 Corbon would be a great cartridge for a 1911 if it were necked up to .45 ☺️ I have 400 Corbon dies and a 1911 barrel...

Wow, Chevy Citation? Really dating yourself there. (I actually owned one new in 1980)

Some spotty "news" reports I am seeing are referring to one of the weapons the perp used at the Chinese New Year mass murder near LA as a MAC 11 semi-auto. Also noted was that a employee saw the perp trying to load or re-load during the incident and somehow stopped him (perhaps fumbling with a...

A couple of weeks ago I got an email from Norma about TAC 22in stock and at about 8 cents per round with no shipping. Certainly no screaming bargain but I just keep buying and adding to the stockpile. I have some bricks I got at 3 cents/round, some at 5 cents/round, some at 8 cents/round. I...

I used Armslist to buy my M11/9 sight unseen from 1500 miles away. I did a lot of due diligence and cyber-stalking of the seller before I sent any money but I ended up getting a great deal. I guess I was just one of the lucky few.

Well, take my money! Is this a complete DIY project or is there something to start working with other than the 180 drum?

Similar story here. Reuben had a RLL advertised at something like $14,500 6-8 years ago. I was on the phone haggling with him over nickels & dimes and let it slip away. Just another one of my woulda, coulda, shouldas. At least I made the right snap decision when I said "I'll take it" to my...

To add to the pile, thanks Dave. I credit (blame??) this site and the MAC forum for getting me started in the sordid world of NFA, machine guns, silencers and SBRs. 11 stamps later, I have learned a lot thanks to you and the UT members.

I was just looking for an "economical" Lightning Link. Looks like I missed the boat by a couple of years on that.

And a strongly worded reprimand should be added to their permanent record file!

Wow, talk about a necro-thread. I started reading page 1 and got to a post from Vegas before I figured out it was history.

macguy: Now I get the connection: Stepan's "Auto" Service. I wondered how a car repair shop got involved with MACs :twoguns Is all the information and services offered on your website (http://www.macmanworld.com/home) still accurate and available?

macguy: Welcome aboard! As a relatively new (10 years) participant in the NFA and MAC world I sincerely appreciate your willingness to volunteer information and background that will be useful to the entire MAC "community". Since we are now 35 years past the manufacture of the last...

I've got one with all/most of the accoutrements. Love it to death but would trade for MP5:), M16:), or maybe even a RLL.

You truly are da' man.

I also enjoy making displays of conspicuous consumption of ammo with my Max 31 with 71 round mag dumps and stock upper with 50 round sticks when at the public range. I'm still working on primers I bought at $28.00/1000 and powder at $140.00/8 lb jug. My inventory will someday be depleted, but...

I bought 2 50 rd. Zmags for my M11-9. Ran perfectly straight out of the wrapper. I posted a YouTube on it somewhere about 6-8 years ago.

Also sounds kind of like a Chinese speaking person's translation into English.

Righty tighty-Lefty Loosey:)
