lol be sure to take pictures when u do!
Actually I think the next (big) thing I want to do is build up enough bitcoins to buy an ounce of gold, and take it to a gun show and find a gun I want that's at least slight above above value for the price of gold, and plop it down on the table and say.. "This ounce of gold for that gun, straight up, what do you say?"
And then see if anyone will do it.
I figure it's win-win. If they accept they'll have an ounce of gold, and I'll have a gun worth more than what I put into the gold.
I mean shit, really, I just want to see their reaction on their face when they realize "holy shit that's a real bar of gold!"

Congrats on your new toy. It looks great. 
Awesome!
And finished.
I finally got a BCG to put in, and my brother gave me a scope that he no longer wanted.
I realize this thread is way old now, but I wanted to show that it was finally finished.

I've run into a snag... a person who was going to send me a used BCG for $110 (in bitcoins) is unable to do so anymore. It's the last piece I need to have a functioning AR15!
Anyone reading the forum have a used BCG (.223/5.56) they'd be willing to trade to me for bitcoins? I'd like to avoid buying a new one off Amazon.

Probably too late now, but when I built my AR-15, I did it by ordering an 80% lower. This is essentially just a block of metal and so doesn't count as a gun part which makes it much easier to get in California. From there I milled it myself.
This isn't the place I used, but it is similar. http://www.cncguns.com/tooling.html
I'll ask my dad for the place we actually ordered them from if you are interested.

He's already got the lower, just needs the LPK for it.

Got a bunch of stuff to sell you... Just upgraded my AR to SBR and have some left over parts plus some from previous upgrades.
Parts list:
Delton upper with 16" barrel. Upper is in perfect condition, but the barrel was experiencing some jams with wolf ammo. This is a full upper with carrier and charging handle.

A2 front sight/gas block
Weaver rail gas block
foregrip and misc covers
collapsible butt stock
Full butt stock
10 rd mag
front and rear iron flip up sights (not shown). front flip up only works with the weaver gas block.

I'm asking $100 in BTC.

Got the parts today, thanks Tuxavant! They look awesome.
He is so awesome, he also threw in a bitcoin t-shirt for me as well. So I need a lower parts kit, a bolt and carrier group (I think what it's called), and then I'll assess everything and see if I'm missing anything else (to make a functional gun). Then the accessories will come later.
I still have the Spike's BCG if/when you're ready
Glad to see this coming along nicely !
Incidentally, I showed my coworkers/boss what I bought, and they all 3 both became instantly curious about these mysterious "bitcoins" that bought gun parts.
My female coworker gave up after about 10 minutes of explanation. My other coworker might put his 5770 to use mining them. My boss is curious, but gave me the "wtf" face when I explained them, but still seems interested (he's intelligent, so after sleeping on it I'll bet I'll get more questions).

Does a .22lr have enough recoil to bump-fire (or using the sliding stock)?
Nice!!!!! Hey, there's lots of stray kids north of here of you want to go plinking someday. ROTFL
I need a lawn that's longer than 1000yds to keep them off of.
You made my night. 
Want to see a pic of my .50 BMG?

Give up the pic! I got to shoot my friends Barrett 50 cal and it was SWEET!
This is an AR50 - I've shot the Barrett and it's much better suited for combat obviously - but the Armalite has less recoil. No recoil, actually, it just knocks everything around you down and pushes back a little. Easier to shoot than .22lr! I'm more accurate with the AR50 than the Barrett, but probably just because it's what I'm used to.
Hey, you did a great job, btw. That's EXACTLY how they sound.
It's REALLY hard to take good pics of that thing - because I can't get it all in the frame. Too freaking long.
