  1. Are these being filed as individual, trust or corporation?
  2. As others have said, form 4 to dealer in receiving state. As you are in Austin I recommend you call Capitol Armory. They have done a couple recent machine gun transfers for me. They are good folks and will take care of you. I’m also in Austin and happy to discuss over the phone.
  3. Will this selector lever and the Magpul grip frame work with registered sears in SEF packs?
  4. I run a Sig Romeo 5 on several toy guns to include an M11. They work great, fit an Aimpoint mount and can be had for around ~110 bucks.
  5. I’m with Taylorwso on this. Sell the mini-14 and spend the extra to add an HK sear. With what you already have adding this will create a very versatile collection.
  6. M16 looks to be your best option of those listed. In my opinion all collections should start with the root 3. M16 of some sort to include a DIAS, HK Sear or registered pack, then any version Mac or UZI. Between those 3 you have everything covered from standard rifles, tiny subguns to beltfeds depending on host or configuration. The first one matters little. None are bad choices and all have good support.
  7. Well I pulled the trigger shortly after starting this thread and purchased a MM23e. My gun was found on the used market but looked to be fairly new. Turns out my sear pack has a small timing issue. The gun runs perfectly in semi but I get light primer strikes on auto. Swapped in a known good sear pack when troubleshooting (thanks JBNTEX) and she runs perfectly with multiple ammo choices. Will sort out my previously suspected timing soon and all will be golden. At this point I'm extremely happy with my purchase and on the lookout for a 308 conversion. Thanks for all the help from everyone on this thread. Chris
  8. Fellas! I know Sturm has some institutional knowledge but I’m floored with all the info in response to my question. This is exactly the kind of feedback I needed. I’ve just completed a first pass but will need to take some time to digest it all. Thanks so much for all of the detailed responses. Chris
  9. Looking to add a belt fed as my next sear host if not purchasing a complete registered receiver gun or gun already with a sear. Any reason to go with one type of host over another. Initial instincts want me to find a host with a DLO trigger box. Appears lots of different manufacturers from Fleming, Volmer, TSC, Michael’s Machines and more. What I want is a HK21 with parts to go to HK23 config and any extras to make my experience better. What are the must have accessories? What does the collective wisdom of the Sturm board suggest? Any things to avoid? What are the values of the various guns from different manufacturers and why do some demand a premium?
  10. Local shop has an incoming HK registered trigger pack made by L&B from Grants Pass Oregon. I've never heard of this manufacturer before and curious if anyone knows more information? If possible would like to know how this manufacturer made their packs? Would this be a pack made like a DLO from a full auto trigger pack utilizing all factory HK internals or like a Knights pack which used a modified semi pack and a proprietary sear? I have not seen the pack in person to be able to investigate. Thanks, Chris
  11. I vote for adding an M16 or MAC variant. Neither is unique but both are fun with great options.
  12. Mike, Thanks for all you share on this board. Your experience and willingness to type out your various experiences and stories are something I’m always hoping to find when logging into Sturm. Hang in there Mike. I’m still a bit away from getting a beltfed into my collection and your input and advice is sure to save me time, money and grief. Chris in Austin
  13. Dink, Thanks for the input. Agreed and already done on the rear buffer for the Mac. This is not my first MAC and I had this part ready to swap before the latest one arrived. Very easy thing for folks to miss. Regarding the can, the piece that is loose is a metal washer and not a wipe. I should have been clear in my description. Not sure why this would be loose in the can and what holds it in place. Suppose worst case scenario is I pull the can apart and if I can't repair I just send it to Bowers.
