The stock is held in by a cross bolt on the lower, it takes about a minute to change

I was thinking of splitting a 100 rd belt into two 50 rounders.

They're already split, 2 fifties that join together.
Why not just load up the belt that has the starter on it and just use that?

You could contact the venders that sell them and ask if they have any damaged belts, but I think that would be a hard find.

You are right. I just thought if I could find an extra starter tab I could set up all the belts to feed

Can't wait to get in on the next run! About how long does it take from start to finish? +/- 3 months?

there is about 14 hours work per standard gun, US bbl'ed guns take a couple hours longer as do the custom shorty ones. The problem is that I don't get to work non stop on builds, I have to answer the phone, pack & ship orders and all the other stuff associated with running a business.

I know this isn't the forum to sell things but, J4570 asked if anyone knew where to get 200 round nutsacks. I have about 10 brand new ones in Woodland camo. They hold 100 rounds of the belted 7.62 x 39 great. The only thing is even though they are new they say "TRAINING" on them. I would sell them for $45 ea. If anyone is interested you can send me a email and I'll get you a pic. if needed. Sorry for the side track, keep up the good work Pirate!
Thanks,

Post photos so people can see what they are getting.

Here are the pics of the new 200 rd nutsack. I was able to get the "TRAINING" off of mine by scrubbing it with Acetone, it took awhile but did not damage the fabric. The pic with the ammo is 100 rds of 7.62 x 39.

You will need to email me directly as I cannot send IM's or emails through the site since I am a newbe here.
