NFA Picture Thread

That looks like a lot of fun. What’s the barrel length? Is that suppressed or a hand guard?

Picked up a new, old school upper. 9mm DOE Clone. DOE is Department of Energy. They were apparently used by security at Nuclear Power Plants in the 1980's. The full gun was the Colt RO633. The originals have integral carry handle uppers. This one has a flat top upper so that I can add a a red dot optic if I want. I put a detachable carry handle/rear sight on the upper, to give it the "correct look". The originals also used the standard Colt 32 round straight mags. I just stuck a 9mm EndoMag in for the picture. But those mags will be more convenient to use anyway as opposed to dropping in the mag well insert. And overall length does not matter. This is sitting on a RR full auto lower.

Very cool! The DOE 9mm’s have always intrigued me.

I love holding firecrackers when they go off!
That thing looks like a lot of fun. Nice find.

7" barrel. Just a hand guard.

I’ve wanted one for a while as well. Shot a buddies a few months ago and finally pulled the trigger

I think DOE nuclear couriers used those too. Love me some Colt 9mm. Working on my Colt SMG clone.

Reliable mags, but heavy. I’ll have to try an Endomag someday.

You didn’t have to flex that hard.

It's just a little firecracker. I just tested it and it has a nice controllable rate of fire. I would guess somewhere around 700 RPM. I was expecting faster.

It is very compact and would be easy to carry and use in a vehicle. Something like 21" OAL with the stock collapsed.

I have not had any problem with the Endomags, but you should also look at the CMMG AR9 conversion mags. From what i understand, they are a better long term design.

Yea having that extra position on the selector switch is a REALLY nice option!

If they are the ones that look like Endo mags, they are made by the same company theoretically (Mean). I bought the CMMG versions for a Banshee build.

And I know EXCALTY what that is! So - what is it?

Sterling Mk5 submachine gun (intergral silencer) and I'm jealous.

Beautiful! Where did you find it? I have been looking for one in that configuration for quite a while.

Finally had a chance to shoot my M11/9 again last Sunday with the Thompson club over at AGC. It has been probably five years since the last time I did it. I tried not to think about how much money 150 rounds of 9mm costs the days. My ASR brake even stayed put, which was good. Next time I'll put a can on there and see how hot I can get it.

I did have some functioning problems with the old cheapo IMI 115gr I had in one or two of the mags, but all-in-all, good fun.

Since this is a picture thread .... Rugged Radiant on my 10.5" SBR. This rig runs like a dream.
