    I don't think you won't. HK ceased production a while back.

    Controlled in what manner? I know your laws are stricter on acquiring and carry outside of the home is verboten. But can't you play with holsters on range or handgun hunt?

    No handgun hunting here except for the rare cases where you own a big block of land and have the whole place designated as a pistol range

    More commonly, holster use is a separate qualification after licensing as a pistol shooter - typically a half day training session

    As Rushy said, we start from a very different premise legally here

    Presumably you got the receiver milled and tapped to accept the base - where did you get that done?

    I certainly did @chalkeye, bought rail in from EGW and Hugh Bradley (Bradley Barrels/Stager Sport) did the work for me, apparently receiver was harder than anything he'd come across, got a special bit in, might be getting a SA done soon as he's doing a build for me.

    Wait.... you have to get certified to use a holster on the range and handgun hunting is only approved on land that you own if you designate it handgun range?

    ¡Coño!

    Took the AR out this past Saturday for Hogs. Forgot to take a picture of the rifle while in the blind.... didn't get any hogs sadly.



    Malcolm photo bombing the picture.



    Pecan Farm I hunted...



    Just as the sun was coming up.

    Technically. The only time you are allowed legally to have your hand guns on you is on the way to the range, your house and a gun smith or dealer.

    It has to be police certified so lots of hoops to jump through too.

    So you can carry your pistol in a holster on the way to the range, gunsmith, or home? Or do you mean it can be securely incased in a travel container like a zipper pouches or lockable hard case?

    Hell, I carried my Glock 22 Gen 4 and my buddy carried his SA 1911 National Match openly while we were at the local Waffle House in Thomasville, Georgia.

    I always have a pistol on me when hunting. Hogs are mean jerks and sometimes a pistol is needed. Had to put a hog down or two with a pistol.

    Every one needs 2 of these. This one is a 300 win mag and has a 7 mm mag barrel I haven't tried yet.

    Locked case and only to range, gunsmith or to the arms officer.

    @Brian,So that is a Remington action sleeved into a tube with a tikka mag and some sort of machine gun grip?
    Who built it?
