[QUOTE="ratski, post: 1093615, member: 936"] Used to be that folks would tell you that the RR (registered receiver) was the best way to go. Now it really depends. I just got a RR M16 and really like it. Finally got to shoot it over Easter weekend. I also have a RDIAS. Ive had this one for a while. Even though I have various uppers and setups for it, I mainly keep it set in 9mm. It is my go to gun when I am thinking about any range time. Here is a vid of a 100 round dump. [URL=http://tinypic.com/m/6e2pee/4]View My Video[/URL] The audio and video arent synced properly and I cant figure out why. The guy saying go in the vid, is none other than your other responder to this question!!! The advantage of the RDIAS is that you can move it from gun to gun and you can use it to make new guns fully automatic instead of having to use a receiver that is at least 24 years old. Systems like the MGI platform with interchangeable mag wells that accept the RDIAS make different caliber shooting easy. There is alot of controversy as to whether you can only have one reciever set up for full auto with the RDIAS. It is certainly a risk to have multiples with FA fire control groups, but systems like the .45, 9mm and 22 aren't normally a problem. Most of the Colt 9mm rifles are made with FA bolt carriers now because it has been shown you need more than the bolt carrier and fire control group to make it go FA. You still walk a very fine line for constructive possession. With the MGI system, you dont have to worry as much because caliber changes are much simpler than the Colt style lowers. You have to be careful what kind of lower you get for use with a RDIAS. Not all lowers will accept them. The RLL (registered Lightning Link) is another option. Used to be that this was a simple drop in conversion. But you have to have the correct bolt carrier for it to run well. And now, they do make selectfire kits for the RLL, whereas in the past it was either safe or full auto, no semi auto fire. 10K might get you a RR if you watch the boards and/or make an offer. Always remember, you can make an offer on what someone has for sale. The worst they can say is NO. When you are talking about a 10 grand gun, you are walking in rarified air. There arent a lot of folks (especially in todays economy) that are walking along side you. Also, make sure to do a little research on the maker/converter if you get a RR. They are not all created equal. I just got one that was converted by John Norrell. I paid a bit extra for it because of the brand receiver and the guy that did the conversion. In the mean time, start buying ammo. You will need it. Lots of it. Lots and lots of it. All calibers. And mags. Lotsa mags. Dave [/QUOTE]
