Ok, in the right thread now. Looking at this:

Look for a WASR-10, Romanian will do. The wood sucks on them but you can change the furniture out fairly cheap. The internals are pretty solid. |

I was VERY close to getting a C39v2 myself. Very reasonably priced.
Decided to go with the VEPR instead. I'm just a sucker for shotguns. :D |

I don't think I would go with that brand but to each there own. |

Nice link, notorious.
The AK63D AK-47 Underfolder with Milled Receiver is one sexy beast. |
Don't want this to turn into a political debate but I thought it was good info. This seems like as good a place as any to post this.

http://www.budsgunshop.com/catalog/m...ed_8+1_45acp_5 So I just broke down and ordered these..girlfriend came home asking where the money in the savings went http://replygif.net/i/756.gif |

Are you aware of the Remington and Springfield rebates going on right now? |

That Mil-Spec is a great gun to start with when you are building something custom. Remington 1911's are decent guns for the money. Ruger makes a good one as well. I have a buddy in Alaska who killed 5 or 6 deer with his last year. |
So, I kinda have new gun fever. I have about $1000 saved up so far to put toward a new hand gun. Any advice at all is appreciated, the only criteria I i want met are:
Full frame 9mm 15+ capacity Threaded barrel So far I like the HK USP tactical and the Beretta m9a3. Anyone familiar with either of them? |
Quote:
I hate Berettas..with a passion..probably because we had the real shitty military version when I was in the Army and they were junk..so I am biased on that side If you can go to a gun range somewhere and rent them to see how you like them I would do that..if not go with whatever you feel like will be the best for you |
Quote:
I've also heard that former servicemen either love or hate them, based on what condition their issued one was in. My vet friends are 50/50 on em it seems like. I've never shot or held an HK pistol, but I've heard that the USP tactical is a great gun, it also has a nice $1200 price tag on it. I've been looking for an HK dealer in that has one in stock around the Lawrence/Topeka/KC area, but no dice. I'd like to shoot one before I spend that kind of money on it. |
I own a Berretta 92 FS and like it, but I got to shoot a surppressed FN 45 and it was awesome.
The Berretta's grip is huge, so if you have small hands stay away. 2400 for the FN setup, though. Ouch. |

I just spent part of my Christmas bonus on a 12 gauge. First time I've owned one. Looking forward to trying it out at the range soon.

Just got an email from the CMP. Starting on Monday, Feb 1st, they will take orders on M1 Carbines. Limit of 1 per person.
$685 for a Service Grade M1 $625 for a Field Grade M1 https://thecmp.org/cmp_sales/rifle_sales/m1-carbine/ |

And they sold out of the M1 Carbines in 1 day. Hopefully they'll get more. |
welp, Obama can just get off his high horse and allow old M1s from South Korea to be let into the US, but no, hell no, Obama has to Obama.
|
again, the hypocrisy of this administration is extreme. How many deaths in Chicago this last month due to gun violence, yet Chicago has the highest restrictions on the 2nd amendment in the nation. Does that stop criminal behavior in Chicago? Nope, because criminals don't obey laws.
|
I read ( sometimeago) CMP was going to have a large amount of Gov 1911s on its shelves. Anyone one know anything about this?
|
Quote:
So Facebook did. |
Quote:
Found some more recent news. I'll update this post if I can find some definite dates for sales starting up. I'm on the CMP notification list. |
My hope on the 1911s is they don't auction off the entire allotment to the highest bidder. My uncle came back from WWII with both his M1 and 1911. The one time my Dad and got him to talk about them he said they were going to be donated to a museum upon his death. Sucks but I can understand his reasoning.

Howdy, seeking a used Hornady LnL progressive press to set up as prep station.
Willing to pay $150 Why only $150? I can buy a new one for $389 with free shipping and no tax, plus get $150 of free .30 cal bullets, thus $239 new. Also willing to buy bushings, prep tools, etc. anything 300 Blackout or 5.56 related. thanks |

I'm not much of an AR guy but I did buy a Smith and Wesson 686 in 4" last night. Going to the range in the morning for a test drive.
|
Quote:
Probably not, so they will be just fine. ;) |
Yeah, I bought a DPMS 308 a while back to go along with my AR15. I absolutely LOVE the 7.62 platform. DPMS gets a bad rap but I don't really understand why. Mine (the AR10) so far, is accurate as hell out to 800 yards with a good scope. Just be careful with your new gun. Don't be one of "those" guys with 18 pounds of crap on yours. :)
Also, Palmetto State is a good place for parts should you need them. |

One of my most accurate rifles has a 16" DPMS bull barrel. 1/2" all day long. My father owns a 24" DPMS .308 Bull. Thing is a ****ing tack driver. I recently purchased a .260 DPMS 24". Still breaking in the barrel, but it looks very promising so far. |
Here is a video of me shooting a AR-10 with a 20"SASS barrel last summer. I hooked my Iphone up to an adapter on my spotting scope, and the result is pretty cool. You can see the shockwave of the bullet all the way to the target.

Awesome video man
So I got a good deal on a 1911 R1 Enhanced about a month ago..$600..been shooting it with all kinds of different ammo..putting it through its paces since it will become a carry gun for me So far it has been flawless through close to 1200 rounds..all kinds of ammo..factory loads and hand loads..FMJ and hollow point..self defense rounds..no issues feeding or ejection I have just broke it down and wiped it off lightly and little bit of oil after about each 200 rounds..I guess it's a slight torture test to make sure it holds up |

I have no idea where to get a good deal in your state.
I can tell you the most accurate hand gun I've ever shot was a Dessert Eagle in 357 mag. We were smashing apples at a 100 yards. |
Not a huge gun guy, but just bought a 9mm ruger , shot off a few boxes Sunday,kinda fun! Never had a nice gun like this,I might get hooked yet!

Quote:
Rugers are nice guns. I have a 22/45, a Single Six and a Redhawk. All good quality shooters that haven't given me a minutes worth of trouble. |

Well, I got my refund check today! Now I've got an extra $400 burning a hole in my pocket. |
9mm 135GR +P Hornady Critical Duty ammo. I bought 100 rounds for what amounts to .65 cents a shot including shipping.

For conceal carry the last few years, I've been switching between a tiny ruger LCP .380, an old bulky Ruger P90 .45, and a full size Kimber Crimson Trace .45.
I kinda wanted to revamp my conceal carry options, and get something in between the tiny LCP and the bulky P90. So, I went to the store the other day and bought a Springfield compact XD Mod 2 40 S&W and a compact Kimber 1911 Stainless Steel Ultra Raptor II. I'll admit that the second one isn't all that practical as a conceal carry since it only carries (I believe) seven rounds, but I've always loved how the Raptors look, so I kinda had to have it. The Springfield is at home right now, but here's a pic of the Kimber Raptor. http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...dd02fe7333.jpg |
Still no steady source of bulk 22LR that isn't going for 10 cents a round?

I have over 3K rounds and buy for friends frequently at 7 to 9 cents. Set up a wikiarms alert for 22lr at 9 cents or less. When you get the alert, order right away. I'm close (hour) to a Cabelas. So I order online and pick up locally to save the shipping cost. Edit: Typical example.....

Anybody have any .30 cal bullets they don't need anymore and want to sell?
Starting to get the hang of reloading 300 blackout and looking for more stuff. Converted brass is cheap; 1680 and H110 easy to find online. BTW, progressive presses are not as nearly as hard to learn as people say. IF I can do it, anyone can do it. Calibrating the primer insert was the hardest part. Hornady LnL does not give feedback that the primer went in. |
Getting ready to sell a kidney as to pay for a .30 cal can.
Why are they $900?? Anyone have any recommendations or reviews? Signing up for a Trust. Gotta figure out which online kit to buy. thanks |

I like what SilencerCo has to offer, especially the Omega and Hybrid. |
Specwars test the best for sound suppression. They aren't the lightest, or the smallest, but the best for the job they are supposed to do. Search on Youtube for reviews of nearly every suppressor made.
I just got my stamps last week, and a Specwar 7.62 is waiting for more muzzle brakes to come in. I also got a Sparrow .22. Get your paperwork going before June. Obama's executive action comes into power which will require each Class III item to have to have your name and fingerprints. They are doing away with Trusts in other words, but anything before June will be grandfathered in. I am going to transfer a couple lowers to SBR and, get a Harvester for .338LM, and order an Osprey .45 which can suppress 9mm, 45's, and 300 blackouts (subsonic). |

OK, need some advice.
I just bought my first AR, DPMS Oracle. I would like to take it hunting this fall. But the more I read about the pros and cons of deer hunting with this rifle, the more confused I'm getting. It seems there are those who say don't do it (too light of a round, better off with a .30\.30, which I shoot now) and those who say do it (accurate shot, flat trajectory etc.) I've been looking at ammo, and Hornady makes an American Whitetail in 60 grain. I shoot 170 grain in my .30\.30, so obviously a MUCH lighter round. Any suggestions? Should I post this in the Hunting Type Things thread? Thanks fellas. |

Anyone like 1911's. This looks like a pretty good deal on a Remington 1911 R1 Black .45ACP 5-inch 7rd Walnut Grips. Has me really pondering.
