Screw the ATF... I approve. :dthumb:

I have seen Mr. Rumores work he does a great job. He is light years ahead of some of a lot of the Hack and Slash artists that are out there. Congrats on a great Score hopr the form 4 clears quickly.
On a quick aside any trouble getting you CLEO to sign off?

I wish that Tromix would still convert 5.56mm AK mags to use in Valmets. There's a Valmet M76 in a local gun shop that I'd love to buy but not if I can't find mags for it.

You might try Krebs Customs I have a had a couple of his pieces throughout he year and including a 308 VEPR that her converted to accept M14 mags,, I don't know the Valmet but as I recall there was a Galil adapter ( a sleeve as recall) that accepted m16 mags and allowed them to run reliably in Galil

Kregs never did any mag conversion, but Tromix did some years back. Don't know why they stopped doing that.

The Galil mag conversion was crappy. Besides, I see no point in buying a Valmet or a Galil then use the crappy ass Mattel Toy mags.

Not to be augmentative but it was Krebs that converted the VEPR 308 I had to take M14 mags. It was a great set up and it was about 2002 or 2003. (it was done a a way of stepping around the HI Cap Magazine ban that was inplace at the time. I don't know what they have done since.
I will probably be snagging one of the VEPRs that are being imported now, with an eye adding a Ace Folder HK rear sight and a Kobra.

Sorry, I should have been more clear. Krebs never did any AK-to-valmet 5.56mm mag conversion.

I'm still waiting for his signature, but the guys at the gun store say he'll sign off on sbr, sbs, supressors, and machine guns. On a side note, it's kind of ironic that the sheriff of the most liberal county in Texas will sign off on NFA items.

Which county?
I've wondered about getting a suppressor here (Austin area).
I was in Travis, but now I'm in Williamson...not sure if my chances went up or down. :lol:

I'm in Travis county (Austin). From what I've been told, the Williamson County sheriff won't sign off on NFA items. If that's true, you'd have to have a lawyer draw up a trust to bypass the CLEO signoff.

The Gun Store off of Buttercup Creek RD in Cedar Park Is a class iii dealership and the guys are really helpful and cool to deal with.
