If or when all hell breaks out my buddy has more than enough to take out a small army. That is where I will be if that day comes.

I picked up one of these a few years ago...if someone breaks in to my house I'm not going to mess around...
You know you are starting off with the Noisy Cricket. Just don't break the damn thing.
Hey man. Heck no, I’m an idiot — I honestly forgot all about it. But now that you’ve reminded me I’m gonna put it at the top of the toy list.
Lever action 30-30, AR15, Mini14, Mossberg Flex 590 Tactical 12 Gauge shotgun, Taurus 1911 style .45, Taurus 9mm, Glock .40, 2 X Ruger .22, (wife and Daughter), Rossi .38, and a Japanese infantry rifle and sword from WWII.
I like 9mm round. Especially for range shooting. Cheap, accurate, won't make your arm tired.
One. It's a kinda rare 22 bolt action built by Daisy(yep, the BB gun manufacturer) for one year in the late 70's. I like shooting guns but I had never bought one until my son wanted to start shooting. A few years later he's one of the top marksmen in the state for JROTC.
This.
Y'all can have as many as you want.
I haven't felt felt the need to have one in quite some time because I'm not afraid of random stranger attacks, I don't hunt, bullets are cheaper on the Xbox and I don't have any dangerous enemies who want me dead.
And my wife is major depressive. She's told me she probably would've offed herself by now if I kept one in the house. I used to own a S&W .45 in the dope dealing days of my youth but sold it to help pay for a down-payment on a car after I got married. I can't say I miss it.

I have a ton of fun with it and the price point is awesome right now. Keep me updated I recommend it to everyone my old lady is sick and tired of them. I bought 3 I liked them so much.
Whenever US SOCOM is basically telling all their guys to quit fetishing pistols and just stick with the Glock 19, I'd say that's pretty persuasive.

Several the Arisaka I've ran across at auction has been modified, still have the chrysanthemum on it? Pics
Yes on chrysanthemum. Will send pictures as soon as I take them. I came across it and the sword at a martial arts tournament September last year. The previous owner (Denny Holzbauer) was selling many old items like these to fund missionary work he was involved with. He has traveled extensively throughout the Orient during his lifetime in the Martial Arts and acquired a great deal of antiques of this nature.
Got both for $600.00 each.
question or two for you if you don't mind, please. Does the added weight not bug you just a bit? Which model(s) do you have? I looked at a couple of these several months back and finally decided 4 - 4.5 lbs. added to make a pistol function like a sub / bullpup would be annoying, take away from the enjoyment. so far I don't know anyone personally who can tell me anything about the conversion / install - how complex that might be, so if you wouldn't mind a comment for that, thanks also. thought it might be a cool project for a model 22 with the finish rubbed raw off the slide. Ugly pistol. runs like a top.
They definitely add weight but for what Im using it for Im not concerned with it. I keep a Glock 17 Gen 2 micro roni mainly for fun and truck / house conversion. With the big stick 33 round glock mags its just a nice choice to have. Using the 17 with it helps with accuracy. I have a small red dot on it as well that isn't much in weight. You add weight to your pistol but you gain in accuracy if you know how to shoot.
For the for price point, its worth it to me, but maybe not to someone else who's more careful with where they put their gun money. Im a Glock collector and own a lot of rifles and so I am always looking for conversions. If you're someone who'd rather put that 300 into an actual Glock or carbine, I wouldnt do it. I also own the kel-tech sub2000 gen 2, and I tricked it out with new accessories. So I just enjoy playing with it.
The system itself is extremely easy to use and maneuver. I never owned the first generation because I didn't want that bulky stock and hated the finger positions. This is a video at shot show this year. I bought 2 of these for myself and one for my father. We really have fun with them.
Ok, mr glock collector, for my first glock do I go gen5 or gen4 17? I shoot the gen4 pretty daggum good and it feels great, plus I figure the gen 4 is more proven. And it's a little cheaper. But the gen5 omg new!!!!
Did that sound conceited? Damn.
I haven’t bought the 5 yet. I still prefer modifications to a gen 3. I carry a gen 2 sometimes. I own gen 4’s and they are great.
But omg totally go with what’s new.
I'd feel better about getting a gun that's been out for many many years now, so I think I'll do that. Plus it's 70 less than a gen5 and comes with these sights...
Thank you. Thanks also for the vid. Obviously the conversion isn't a conversion at all. Just a drop in and latch. I would have expected at least some form of internal adapter to link the slide to the charging handle. Is it a pinch mechanism or does it make contact with the rear sight?
Price is no big deal. Just thought it would be cool to shoot / experiment firing off the reset in a different configuration sort of thing.
