do they use gas piston action like the eagle's? or are they blowback operated?

my next project is my m14. i've been rummaging around for my 30mm ring for my aimpoint. gotta get some mags/magpuls for it, paint it to match the m4, and get a good sling. basically going with a randy shughart style.

the Jericho's should be very close to the baby eagle's. they're the original guns. i believe Magnum Research and Charles Daly are just the importers. they're originally made by IMI (Israel Military Industry).

i've got A.R.M.S mounts for my 30mm rings. very secure levers!

ah yes.. the PS90. there's a CA "version" out there but why bother. it's a bullpup design. they made an extension to keep it legal. *sigh*. i'm opting for an AR57. i've already got a lower built out with a MonsterMan grip configuration. now i just need to buy the AR57 upper and A2 buffer. mine will look like this setup.

WOW P1X, that looks awesome man...
 
broke down and got a G17. Price was right and should be a decent first pistol.

Excellent choice for a first, second, etc... pistol. :) The classic.

Now go pick up a G19.



Why are some guns models allowed in a certain state and others arent? is it a tax issue?

Some of us live in "Free America". Some of us don't. Fortunately, I do. :D



It comes with 4-50 round clips, I am gonna have to pick it up...

That's a very good deal. It's just a hoot to shoot, too!



By the way, I had a "Ruskie" range day last weekend. Took only my Arsenal AK-47 and 74. I still need to sight in the Kobra sight for my 47 and would like to pick up some type of variable scope for the 74. Both are fantastic rifles but that 5.45 x 39 is a sweet shooter.

Congrats on the AK! :rock

Highly recommend "Golden Tiger" ammo, if you can find it. Wolf is the old standby and is fine, though a little "stinky"... :lol
 
i have 1,500 rounds of Wolf from Cabela's coming in soon. lol@stinky! i was at the range last friday where these old guys were shooting their old style rifles that stunk. boy howdy, those were stanky! :lol
 
I am a big fan of WWII rifles. I have an M1 Garand, and an o3a3. I also have an M14, a Rem 700, and some others.

sweet, love my garand.

where in NY brother?


i had a wolf round explode in my mk23. thank god for hk's construction.
the round jammed in the barrel and the case blew up in the chamber. not a scratch, but i did have to do a field expedient strip to get all the metal out of the nooks and crannies. last time i ever used wolf.
 
i was at my FFL doing paperwork for my newly acquired pistol when i saw a box full of .50AE! holy wow! that round is a monster!

I met an interesting fellow at the SDCC by the name of Johnny who goes by the name of Ancient Astronaut on this site who has so much knowledge on guns and gun laws. He's in late 30's early 40's and is a high ranking Military man currently stationed in San Diego. His wife and family said he almost died around May/early June and barely woke up from a coma only a few weeks ago. More on that story later. But anyways when he comes on this site you all should ask him anything you want about guns. He has unlimited knowledge and probably has one of the best gun collections I have ever seen.
