Announcements and Suggestions / Re: Migration Update 4/24/24

I also have a problem of my own making, I completely forgot about some essential email addresses using the @calguns.net domain that have to exist however vB Cloud does not offer domain email hosting, just the forum software. So now I'm scrambling to figure out how to use the domain to both host the site and host email separately. Without having to pay for yet another server.

This is totally on me, I've never had a hosting account that did not include domain hosting but I should have verified first.

You can point the DNS for the email servers somewhere else and setup mailboxes on that alternative service.

Try to get in reference to Allison or Iggy as a reason for slowing down the process?

Most of the kids these days were not old enough to run a DROS when allison and iggy were a thing.

Does Calguns have a copy of the software?

It's just a matter of re-installing vbulletin.
Getting it all tweaked/modded like before will be the more challenging part...

So now I need to get the barrel threaded.  Will threading the barrel mess up the crown?

I have threaded a bunch of those CA AR556's.

Rifles / Re: Install and headspace an AK barrel...
« on: November 27, 2015, 07:37:43 PM »
Sure.
The barrel gets pressed into the trunion with the bolt and a headspace gauge in the trunion.
Then, headspace is checked.
Then, the barrel gets drilled/reamed for a pin.

Now, you remove the barrel so that you can rivet the trunion into the receiver.
After that, you press the barrel back into the trunion until the pin hols is aligned perfecty, install the pin and do one final headspace check.

You can disable the smite function.  Try mine, it's now unsmiteable.

Technically that's a consignment sale/transfer, where FFL purchases/takes ownership of said firearm. The FFL then sells it to buyer, but this may result in higher transfer fees plus sales tax instead of the $35 PPT fee.

If you say so.
I always paid the seller directly though and the FFL only charged $35.

I have never spoken to an ffl that would be willing to do a PPT unless both parties were present.

I have done a few PPT's in this manner.
When you know the buyer/seller and the FFL and the FFL knows the buyer/seller, it's pretty easy to arrange to have the gun dropped off before the buyer shows up to do his side of the paperwork.

How do I leave negative karma??

Click where it says "smite" for negative or "applaud" for positive.
If you don't see those links, it's because you are too new to have the privileges yet...

Worst case scernario is I have to reload the vBulletin software and reconnect it to the database.
If we lose anything it would be some images stored as attachments.

I had to do that once for CAPRC after accidentally deleting the root directory on the web server.
It wasn't all that bad.

It was all the micro aggression in Randall banned thread...I know it.

And I didn't even get to see it...
I got a couple text messages about it while sitting on the beach in mexico (thank you sprint for free coverage in mexico now) and I responded back to my guys to go ahead and take the site down since I didn't need it for a few days.
I should have asked them to screen grab that thread and text it to me before they did...

Exile Machine is in the house.  Gotta get a Calguns fix somehow. 

Time for CGN to sign with one of the major hosting providers.  99.99% uptime guaranteed.  Redundant geographically dispersed datacenters, managed service, the whole 9 yards.  Costs more but 2 days of downtime due to hardware failure = not good.



I'm banned on the shutdown site right now so the outage is not bothering me at all.
I'll let the site go back online just about the time my ban ends though...
