Hi all,

I had a long talk with Ron of Smith Enterprise today. As I was talking to him about building my LRB into a Bush Rifle he told me about a few new products he's selling that were being used by the U.S. Navy.

The first is a "Direct connect Vortex Flash Hider" $75.00 . Since I live in "The Peoples Republic of" I'll have to pass on that one until I can effect an escape from here .

The other is a "M-14 H&K Type Front Sight" for a Bush/Scout rifle. It is attached to the Gas Cylinder Lock and also goes for $75.00. I don't think he has pictures of them on his site yet, so I'm going on Ron's description to have him install one on my LRB M-14 Bush 8) . Building a new rifle is better than Christmas .

Oh! Almost forgot the most important part of our conversation..... He stated that once the Iraq thing winds down and he has time He's going to build a Limited Run of 100 Forged M-14 Receivers 8O . It will be first come first serve and he's taking Pre-orders by E mail only. He's storing them in a data base. I'm #1 :wink: . He says the price will be around $1,000.00


Hope I got it all correct? Maybe now would be a good time to enter a disclaimer??

Aloha Greg:

That is an awesome heads up!!! I don't know if I can swing $1k for a receiver but it would be excellent to jump in and get one!

Aloha,

Tom O.

Well that does it. I am holdin Msgtmaze acountable. There is a dead angel on the floor and an email to Ron :twisted: But I am sure Msgtmaze will just plead the 5th :lol: sssssssssshh I asked for the lowest # possible.

 

[Quagmire]

I forgot to mention any S/N preference, but I did send Mr. Smith an E-Mail.

Oh man...

 

[Oxmix]

Oh Man. I don't know if I can afford another M14. Fulton Armory, LRB, Entreprise Arms,PolyTech,Springfield Armory, ArmsCorp and Smith Enterprise. It's M14 alphabet soup. They say you snooze you loose. I'm gonna have to at least sleep on it. You guy's are a bad influence on me. . I may have to stop coming here, I'm going broke.
Oh the humanity of it all.

Regards

[dighawaii]

Hey Oxmix,

That is an OUTSTANDING line up you got there!!! Ahhh.... one more won't hurt! Will it? A new Smith Ent. will go so well with that collection...

I know, I'm being "baaaad"!!! :lol: But I am impressed with your collection!!! Very Cool, Sir... whichever way you go!

Aloha,

Tom O.

 

[MsgtMaze]

Hey Guys,
Don't shoot me I'm just the messenger :lol: . Ron asked if I'd pass it on to you guys. You've got plenty of time to start saving your lunch money........ Ron says it won't be until the beginning of next year. With all the money I've been spending I'm skipping lunch and dinner . And since I was first to E Mail I'll be getting the low number :wink: .

Greg

 

[dighawaii]

Yeah... but Greg...

It's "first come, first served", right? So man, we gotta commit soon to get a good number!!!

Man, I am counting my coins right NOW!

Aloha,

Tom O.

 

[wdigeorge]

Wow, that's amazing! I was wondering when he's going to start making them forged receivers again. Outch, $1k! I am going to have to start saving up!

 

[warbird]

I knew I was saving all these new USGI chrome lined barrels for a good cause. 8) :wink:

Oh yeah,I can't forget about all these bolts either. 8) :wink:

[Quagmire]

warbird: I'm gonna need a barrel and that gas cylinder we were discussing now...

 

[warbird]

Quagmire:

Is this what you're looking for??
I still have gas cylinders but I'll have to open a can to get it.

[Quagmire]

Yeah, the one in the middle that says "SAK". That's exactly what I'm looking for. 8O
