Norcal Spotted and BS Thread

yeah and for some reason mercedes uses different lugs for the spare (which were used).

 

Damn Greg... you need a haircut.

 

The hellllll. I'm trying to piece together an AR-15 for my friend and it looks like every site is sold out of everything.

 

I heard some guy on the radio saying "just buy the lowers and piece it together later".

 

Did not know that. We Todd Did

 

Seriously, I checked a few sites that I've used to piece together my rifle and they're all sold out of everything. No lower parts kits, no uppers, no lowers...nothing.

 

anyone near Davis/going to the mod day tomorrow want a $20 off coupon for a Wanna Get Away Southwest airlines flight to anywhere? It just has to be used by Feb. 7th on a flight no later than Feb. 14th. I have 2 and I'm not gonna use 'em

 

You cant find anything the stores, but calguns is saturated with used ARs. I would just buy a complete rifle used.

 

Exactly!

 

I've been talking with dealers and friends. Sold out everywhere. Most manufacturers are speculating (as of SHOT show) 4-6 months before delivery. If you want something now, gunbroker has lowers and rifles at inflated prices. Some manufacturers of lowers are taking back orders and promising delivery by July.

Best of luck to everyone, and consider joining the NRA to combat any of these bills/bans.

 

I'm trying to get him to build one so he can get exactly what he wants in his AR versus buying a completed one. He's also in another state so it's not like I can go look at rifles with him

 

Plus you have to deal with the stupid bullet button if you are actually sourcing parts in CA or bringing parts in. Why can't he do it himself or get a local shop to help out?

 

Phase five had some the other day.

Edit. You got a text

 

He's not very educated in these kind of rifles. He's more knowledgable about hunting rifles. I'm trying to get a list of parts going with links to the website so he can buy them and start putting stuff together.

 

right on!

 

I can ask a friend if he knows of any place to source rifle parts, he has acouple himself and also sells ammo.

 

Honestly I don't want him buying one right now. He's going to overpay for whatever he gets and he doesn't need it this minute.
