Overkill is a way of life.<br /><br />Zercool - you can borrow the beltfed but I'm afraid I know what you'd do with it. Clean it THOROUGLHY and please post the pic B^)<br /><br />ParatrooperJJ - ATF has ruled that one particular belt fed upper is Title 1 (regular gun, not NFA) and that upper essentially a MG34 designed to use an AR lower as a FCG. Long discussion cut short, this is a completely different design - using an AR upper. The one I built has a similar system as has been built by Stoner and Colt - neither had any commercial success.Wallynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3596231821271459872.post-42513164746061440512010-04-09T11:21:02.851-04:002010-04-09T11:21:02.851-04:00How does belt feed make something an NFA item?How does belt feed make something an NFA item?bob rnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3596231821271459872.post-51833496046958633932010-04-09T10:39:39.455-04:002010-04-09T10:39:39.455-04:00He should be careful.
