Refer to Post #6
You make this way too easy bob. Considering the fact that members here have more than one Mini 14, it is not out of the realm of reality that someone, somewhere would have a 5.56 Mini14 and a 300BO Mini 14. As stated in post #6 "god forbid someone load a 5.56 round in their 300BO Mini 14." I can only imagine what damage can be done since I have never had a gun blow up on me or ever witnessed it. So yeah, having mags market 300BO with 5.56 ammo loaded up could potentially cause life threatening energies, if said person was not paying attention and grabbed the wrong mag loaded up with the wrong ammo, and uses it in the wrong rifle. Don't think to yourself that scenario could never happen, there are plenty of idiots in this world that could prove you wrong.
If you would have at least went into detail on how to get rid of the 300BO marking off the mag for the intended use of a 5.56 that would have been different, but you didn't. And for you not to go into a detailed explanation is kind of mind blowing considering your post history. If it were me, I would have at least gone into instructive detail on how to strip the finish off the mag and properly re-finish it so it wouldn't looked jacked up, and not be potentially hazardous. BUT YOU DIDN'T!!!
Credibility? Where is your guns? For the short 2 years you have been here I have never seen you post a single picture of any of your Mini 14/30/300BO's. The only thing I have seen you post is long winded ill advice to other members in this section. For all I know you could be a 12 year old kid on his mom's computer. There use to be a old saying here long before you joined these forums, "No pictures, no proof." PERIOD! I on the other hand have went above and beyond with my pictures of my 2 Mini 14's, and even gone as far as creating a youtube channel recording my excursions to have documented video proof of who I am, what I know, and what my Mini 14's are capable of. So has Sandog, so has KWG, so has RJF, so has Hylander, and many other members here in the past, except YOU.
Now, if you have asked yourself why I am so concerned about about the potential hazards of loading the wrong ammo in the wrong gun?... It is only because I fall in that bracket. As stated above I have 2 Mini 14's, one is chambered in 5.56, and the other has a Shilen Target barrel that is specifically chambered for .223 REM. only! What do you think would happen if I loaded up a 5.56nato round in a .223 REM. chamber. I don't know what what happen since I have never done it. Out of all my mags I have, one is specifically marked for .223 REM. so I wont make that mistake. The others mags I own are for 5.56nato. that is for my stock Mini 14. I don't not intend on ruining my face, body, and especially my rifle. I also encourage others to do the same if you own more than one Mini 14 in different chambers.
And one last point bob, you should really re-read your post #20 and think about what you have stated. Because what little credibility I had for you has gone out the window!
