I like AR pistols. I have built a few and plan on building a few more just because they are so much fun. I am studying the application of stabilized wood as a lower material and another builder posted this. I can see mayor bloomburgs pacemaker exploding if he heard about this. see joke below


Bob turned slightly and pointed at a tree. "Look at that!"

The reporter glanced at the rather undistinguished pine tree, then back at him, caution sliding underneath her mask of righteous indignation.

"People can make AR lower receivers out of wood. No, don't give me that look, it has been done before. You keep babbling about "3D printer control", but a tree that size will make five or six HUNDRED receivers, and it's available to anyone with a saw."

"That's horrible!" the reported exclaimed. "What can we do about this?!"

Bob shrugged. "Beats me. Tree registration, I guess. Put the Forestry Service under the BATF. I don't know how you're going to account for firewood, or existing wood like furniture. Bookshelf licensing? There's a lot of wood out there. Let me know how that works out for you."


So barry obama plans on killing hicap (whatever that is) magazines. I can make those too. (just not out off wood)
