Join the #1 community for gun owners of the Northwest
We believe the 2nd Amendment is best defended through grass-roots organization, education, and advocacy centered around individual gun owners. It is our mission to encourage, organize, and support these efforts throughout Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Montana, and Wyoming.
I have a curiosity question.
Met up with someone who has a pristine Maxim 1910 machine gun.
His story is it's a heirloom from his Finnish great grandfather who was in the Russo-Finnish war. It recently came into his possession, literally covered in canvas in his grandfather's barn in Alabama...
I vaguely recall seeing a home engraving kit that came with at least one custom made template. It basically attaches on to the surface of the item you want engraved and you just traced inside said template.
Anyone know who makes these?
Have you used them for any projects?
Alternatives?
I...
This is an interesting development. A pity that it doesn't apply to those manufacturing NFA items. Still, it is a step in the right direction, particularly after the abuses of the past administration. News here: BREAKING: ITAR Changes Set To Ease Burden On FFLs. Regulations.gov entry here.
Just a heads up that there is a new mailing address in Oregon for NFA forms 1 and 4. The American Suppressor Association has information here. Updated forms are available for download here. Cheers.

Can a NFA owner travel thru a state, that bans a given NFA item, with an NFA item, while being protected by NFA (in the same context of non-NFA items - e.g., just passing thru, not stopping overnight/etc.)?
Is there case law/examples?
Reason I am asking: I have been thinking of getting...
So I paid for my suppressor on Jan 16th, my dealer said we can't start the paperwork until he gets the serial number, which he won't have until he physically has it. Anyways, he said he would have it in a week and would call me to come in to start the process. After two weeks, I didn't hear...

So, I have an interesting situation.
Both myself (individually) and my firearms trust (me as Trustee) own some various NFA items. I am moving out of state, so I know I need a couple of 5320.20s filled out and approved.
Here is my dilemma...in my new state I am building a house, which will not...
Like the title says- it seems every gun forum has an NFA thread, and it's all suppressors all the time.
Anybody out there gone through the process and have their registered NFA items? Maybe stuff inherited through the family?
And no, I'm not just looking for machine gun porn...
I've considered getting a suppressor, but I don't plan on using a Trust since my family is not the least bit interested in my hobby. That said, what are their options for dealing with an NFA item should I meet an untimely demise?
Thank you!

Way to go Florida +40,000 machine guns. Wow!

To my surprise California is up there in numbers, overall they are in 3rd place for the...
Reopening the machine-gun registry via an amnesty would be something wonderful, even if it is highly unlikely. It would also be hilarious if the anti-2A sniveling about bumpstocks culminated in new MGs. :s0112:

I remember seeing Joe at a Portland gun show giving out cards to his new site. He was on the south wall at a table expessing his hopes for the site and how he hoped it would grow. It was a young time for this place and many guys logged on for the pleasure of a local site to talk guns. I was...
Hi new user to the forum.. Of recent I've been interested in filing a FOIA (freedom of Information Act) with regards to a NFA paperwork being Filed by Vulcan Warbirds inc (Paul Allens pet project, Happens to have a type 2 SOT). In particular I interested in seeing if the company is effectively...
I am interested in locating a papered, full-transferable, in working order, Trejo No. 1 machine-pistol or the select-fire target model Modelo Especial in .22 LR. Extra magazines would be a big up-shot.
I have only seen like two for sale on the NFA market, so I figured I'd toss it out there...
I’m fairly certain this question has been asked, but I can’t seem to find a thread with the answer to my specific question.
In planning my next AR build, I am looking at various barrel/stock configurations and realized that I don’t want to run afoul of the NFA even though language of the SBR...
