  1. Piston Driven AR-15s

    One of the guys at my channel works for KE. DM me and I will send you a special code to save a few bucks. Snag a lower and put whatever upper you want on it... Piston will be mighty front heavy though. Plenty of MA FFLs will transfer it, no problem.
  2. Piston Driven AR-15s

    Standard ARs are often called direct impingement, but aren't exactly... But typically they get called that so we'll go with it. DI vs piston. If you do not want DI (standard AR) you are probably looking at a piston driven system. They are typically cleaner to run, easier to suppress, and easier...
  3. Anyone own a IWI Tavor TS-12 shotgun? Some weird behavior with ammo cycling

    Wouldn't know where to start, but the rotating tubes semi was called an M96 and made by Crossfire (who later made that stupid pump 223/12ga hybrid) and the one with the flopping feedgate was made by Truvelo and was in a polymer stock marked Muzzelite. I want to say Eagle Arms was the magazine...
  4. Anyone own a IWI Tavor TS-12 shotgun? Some weird behavior with ammo cycling

    Right, and similar cases came up during the 94 AWB... a single "object" with two, three, or four cavities, each with their own spring and follower. ATF said each cavity/spring/follower was it's own "feeding device" and should be treated as such. I believe the original item in question was a...
  5. Anyone own a IWI Tavor TS-12 shotgun? Some weird behavior with ammo cycling

    I wouldn't want to be the test case either, but I am just going off the fed standards, during the fed ban, which regardless of what people nit pick over is what we have all been forced to do since MA never wrote their own law or even reiterated the federal law. Same goes for the tubular...
  6. Anyone own a IWI Tavor TS-12 shotgun? Some weird behavior with ammo cycling

    It is not in any way, shape, or form a drum style feeding device. It is three magazine tubes which hold 3-5 rounds each, each with it's own spring and follower, which can be manually rotated. It's roughly the equivalent of duct-taping two 10rd rifle mags together jungle-style. During the 94 ban...
  7. Anyone own a IWI Tavor TS-12 shotgun? Some weird behavior with ammo cycling

    That's how the ATF dealt with similar designs from 94-04. Separate tube/cavity, spring, follower - whether fixed or detachable - separate magazine.
  8. Anyone own a IWI Tavor TS-12 shotgun? Some weird behavior with ammo cycling

    Take it out and shoot it. In a static test, almost all of my centerfire, fixed barrel blowback pistols can get "hung up" when returning to battery... in function, I've never had this happen. The TS12 is not designed to be manually cycled hence the unloading gates for each tube.
  9. Anyone own a IWI Tavor TS-12 shotgun? Some weird behavior with ammo cycling

    It's not a Keltec. Also it's a semi shotgun with a pistol grip (only 1 evil feature) so not an AW. It has fixed 5rd tubular magazines, so no issue with capacity. You may be thinking of another weapon? OP I assume you are using high velocity shells with decent weight loads? RTFM error perhaps...
  10. Options for a poor man's Dragunov?

    This. The only "real" SVDs to make to the US were Russian, or Chinese made with borrowed specs and tooling. Literally everything else is basically a scaled up AKM of one kind or another... which the SVD is not. PSL is not bad, and M91 is a really nice rifle, if you're looking to scratch the...
  11. Muzzle brake issues

    Those brakes are really only meant for slugs. If you want the effect of a brake and/or compensator on your shotgun while firing shot shells, have the barrel ported... Armson, Magnaport, Vang, etc are what you're looking for. It's not cheap and might cost as much as a Lynx does these days...
  12. Eagle Arms or Olympic Arms pre ban lower

    Sound advice, but remember the STATE would be on the hook to prove it wasn't in a rifle configuration before that date... not you. And as you say, good luck trying to prove that since someone else owned it at that point. +1 on EA being fine lowers.
  13. Best 5.56 AR-15 (like) rifles that are Mass compliant

    You're right. It's a terrible sense of humor and I've never seen another NES'er post similar. I'm sure you'll fit right in here.
  14. Best 5.56 AR-15 (like) rifles that are Mass compliant

    Maura, please. This is too transparent. 1) Mosin Nagant 2) Stoeger Coach Gun 3) Red Ryder
  15. the death of the 16 Ga....Why?

    16GA has always been a hand-me-down gun for me... my whole life it's seemed like it's been teetering on the edge of falling into obscurity and only been propped up by the sheer volume of well made hand-me-down grouse guns. I don't meet people buying NEW 16ga unless they're enthusiasts, most are...
  16. Beretta Revolver

    What's the difference between an old Python and a new one? Other than a completely different set of internals, which in the former is hand fitted and sweet as hell but prone to failure at around 2000rd, and in the latter has a trigger like a dog by comparison but is seemingly (so far) more...
  17. Beretta Revolver

    Pricing is because it's a rebranded Manhurin. French police/military pistol. Nice weapons, not exactly a "Beretta" though. Just under their umbrella now. They command a decent price on the used market and have been imported by various companies over the years. Wonder what this'll do to the...
  18. Mossberg shockwave

    Not as an MA resident.
  19. Mossberg shockwave

    IANAL but as I understand it (and have seen done by other smiths, dealers, and individuals) YES. In a free state, a factory PGO "firearm" in 12ga, 20ga, .410, etc could be cut down to 14" as long as it came from the factory without a shoulder stock... and as long as you install the longer...
  20. Mossberg shockwave

    This is often a point of confusion. It's a federal law issue and it looks like it's already been clarified here by many users - rifles and shotguns only, at an FFL only, if you are outside your state of residency. Note that "rifles" and "shotguns" do NOT include SBR or SBS, or any other NFA...
