Who knows, we might still get one...
Yes, I only have to change the firing pin from centerfire to a little fork shape to do .22 blanks. They fit in the same hole as the shotgun primers, just a small amount looser. I plan on making the firing pin for them tomorrow and testing. A potential large customer wants to use .22 blanks since they can be shipped with the units without haz mat fees when any number of primers requires haz mat shipping.Have you thought about them using percussion caps? Or 22 blanks?
I made a couple to use 22 blanks because I got a ton of them at a yard sale once.
I wanted the MP5 clone....I keep asking, they keep saying COVID19 delays. It's OK, I still love 'em. But the $$$ I was holding back for the JAKAL is gone now. Short term reality trumps long term maybe for me.
But I spent it well
If they do get it on the street, I can probably sell a couple of boxes of ammo and pay for one
had been told that their next shipment of primers will be in 9 months.
Got flints? If so from where? i cant find good quality ones.Glad I still have lots of lead balls and my flintlock... if it should come to that.

Any day of the week.You made out, much better, imho.
Oh wait, I read that wrong. The other guy got the deal
Do you want another 686, chrome 6"...
Full sun will make them unusable. A hot car can destroy one in two minutes. Basically no good at all unless kept in air conditioning, that's why I have not sold any. In testing they work great, I fired one a dozen times in a row and are 100% reliable. The tension from the spring makes it worse since it is putting it under pressure and as soon as the heat softens it, it twist all over.
If that is true about primers, how could you carry ammunition in your auto? Am I missing something?

Yes, I will trade another 10.5" AR "Pistol" or a 16" 5.56 AR for another 4" or 6" S&W .357 in Nickle, chrome or stainless. 686 are stainless, not chrome, 586 are nickel or blue. It would bring me down to about 15 full AR's and 7 more builds in progress just needing bolt groups. I don't sell them but I have enough to trade for other toys. FFL to FFL transfer to keep legal.You made out, much better, imho.

I have a .45 Colt Blackhawk, awesome gun! If you shoot something with it, it will be one and done.Vary tempting, and yes then it must be stainless. Don't like how mine shoots. Bought it brand new. And it's always had some blow out at the cylinder-barrel.
Honestly like my Blackhawks better.

Geez....You don't collect all the Blackhawks? The 357 is a fine pistol too.
Got just one wheel gun, a sweet Dan Wesson .357,
that cased version with the 4 different length bbls. I
got shoulder rig for 8" scoped bbl and belt rig for 6".
Had bought it for my Dad almost 40 yrs ago when I'd
had my FFL. He put a scope on the 8" bbl & used it
deer hunting a bit, though usually used a 12 ga slug.
Now 95, his hunting days over, so he gifted the gun
back to me. I've got it set up with the 6" bbl & holster.

That one looks superThe stories behind how firearms are acquired become part of their legacy. That's why I still have this one.

Kind of depends on how old you are and at my age I might have a lifetime supply.Very few people have a lifetime supply of ammo. Good for 6 months - 2 years? Sure! A life time with training ammo.... doubtful.
Australia sure gave it a try.
Which I'm sure absolutely DID NOT HAPPEN.It sure had to be tempting to "rifle" through those piles and pick out a few for one's future boating trips.
Knowing the situation, everything was probably filmed.
Ouch, I retracted & cringed violently.slightly off topic, but if you need a pistol, antifa boy has one for sale..

Absolutely correct! Che Guevara's book about guerilla warfare spoke about ammo being the true prize as guns were plentiful and laying about on the ground. Went on to explain that one of the primary considerations factored before initiating contact was replenishing the spent ammo from the mobile govt supply depot about to be ambushed!
In my opinion, the real "what ya should have done way back when".....is turn off the sports ball and read a book that will teach ya something! Not too late for that by the way, and the overpaid sportsball negroids are giving you every reason imaginable to do so.
I also dabble in Glock making. I just cant get any parts right now that I dont make.slightly off topic, but if you need a pistol, antifa boy has one for sale..

Not primers, the 3d printed part in PLA plastic.
I am going to make a new firing pin tomorrow to test the design with .22 blanks and see if it blows up. In the mean time, I am 3d printing a master to do some aluminum sand casting of these trolling motor mounts. I just drew this up tonight and the print will be done by tomorrow night. It is fun to make things that dont go bang every now and then.
When I get the correct plastic worked out, $14.95 each. This includes a steel spike that bolts to them for sticking in the ground. The back is solid for using double sided tape to stick to smooth things, it has two mounting tabs to run screws through to mount to wood and little slots to keep zip ties from slipping off to allow mounting to small round desk and chair legs. The four way slots at the top allow you to run the string in any direction from the device regardless of how it is mounted.Nice!
What would such a thing cost to purchase?

You can print the Glock frames for about $3 each on a 3d printer. To make them correctly, you need a higher end machine that can print Nylon with glass fill. ABS would work, it is not as strong as PLA but PLA will warp all over the place if it gets left in a car or in full sun. It can warp in two or three minutes and be useless.I misread, and thought 14.95 for the Glock lowers.........
I nearly sprained a wrist to put in an order before I reread the post.
Noice work though.
I took CAD/CAM courses in the .mil and at university, but it was so long ago......
I've almost got my wife to give the go ahead for a decent 3D printer.
