I get it, I was the same way not too long ago. But even though I seek out more sources to verify articles I too am under the MSM rock somewhat in that many of them are jn lockstep with the 'facts' seemingly corroborating the reports and generally omitting some they should be pursuing. Project Veritas has broken many stories that, if we had a free press, should have been front page news, yet not even a peep. Take the selling of aborted fetus', wouldn't you think that would be a human interest story? Or how about, the Dominion guy saying the fix was in? No, no interest in covering that, instead we get vilification of a teen wearing a MAGA hat.

Lead bullets and a light load of Bullseye would be the route I'd take. Damn straight I'd shoot it!!! Sell it to me. I'll shoot it and tell you all about it.

Not me, I'm hopelessly in love with my wife of 22 years.

Show it some love, Shoot it. You’re not gonna hurt a thing. You may be impressed with the performance.

MotorTrend and Rivian teamed up to travel the TransAmerica Trail in a pair of Rivian R1Ts. I love the idea of this trip but bragging about how feasible it was really put me off. It was only feasible and done because Rivian figured the route ahead of time and installed chargers where they were needed. They literally built the infrastructure specifically for this trip. That's great if you want to copy what they did, but doesn't help for your normal trips. The other reason that your experience wouldn't be the same is that these trucks are pre-production samples. A lot of people think of pre-production as still having issues that need worked out and with the big three, thats probably true. But with a company like Rivian, that means that they had extra attention while being built.

There are a couple Rock Island 38 Supers on GB that are cheaper and a little more subdued if the other one is not really your style

What Thompson? All I see is leg and shapely thigh! With a vague hint of no underwear.

Perhaps I am biased. I shoot more .40 than anything. But equating it to Rodham is lowdown lol

Discharging a 5.56mm/.223 Rem into the air, 8 times, in a sub-division is the epitomy of ignorant. He could have just as easily killed someone himself. But cops shooting thru the fence when they had no way of knowing who was on the other side is troubling, too. Seems to be a lot unsaid here. More to come, I'm sure.

I got the chance to buy this gun several years ago and had always desired to have one. I bought it from the original owner that had it for approximately 30 years if memory serves me correctly. It is in the original box with one magazine. I can find no defect on this gun. I have never shot it. Cleaned and oiled and put back in the box and back in the safe.

Looks like Springfield is bringing in some version of the bullpup made by their Croatian partners and fielded by the Croatian Military. The HS Produkt VHS-2: Documents Show this as the likely imported configuration: It is unknown whether SA will convert for 922r compliance (the smart move) or leave the end purchaser to do so, but this is a better picture of what it is supposed to look like.

Long time lurker, first time poster. Bought this new a few weeks ago. Has ~20 suppressed rounds fired. Got a rifle build project started and just trying to free up some cash. Fun little pistol and will probably get another one eventually. Q whistle tip, taper adapter, and original box/magazine included. Also have about 180 rounds of supers. Feel free to call or text 731- two 6 seven 7 nine 3 one 3250 now 3100 OBO. Thanks for looking!

Well I watch Yellowstone and 1883 but I had my levers awhile before either of these shows debut- I have over a grand into each one and that didn't cover the scopes-

Hold on there slick!.... Before you go putting pressure on that toggle lock, you best have a look at it. The toggle locks on those original guns were pretty hard and anywhere in its history of home loads could very well crack one of the 4 in the gun. I checked one for a guy once that like you, wanted to shoot it. The action worked OK by hand but one of the links were cracked in 2 but the crystalline surface of the crack mated so well it still toggled up and down matching the movement of it sister link on the other side of the bolt. IDK if the new Italian clones will swap locking links. Back when, I found an original link to replace the broken one. So, Yeah you can shoot it even with factory loads since they are watered down big time from the factory and I know on new Remington boxes they even print for "All" firearms chambered in 44-40. Just pop the side plates off and look the link joins over really close. If they are sound, hammer time!

Sometimes when I ask for advice, I already know the answer I’m looking for. Thank you, gentlemen- “shoot it!” Is the answer I was looking for. I’ll order some Bullseye powder and try to locate some brass. I’ll post the results. I’ve been obsessed with this rifle since I was a kid and first saw Jimmy Stewart in the namesake movie.

That's a keeper! But spent way too much I don't have already this year! But sure tempts me too much!

Yep, been toying with the idea that I need one of them. You know...to go into the dark corners of my safe and not shot in years. LOL. But true.

LOL, sorry guys , I didn't realize the coaster was in the picture.

Could be a little of both. but hubba-hubba

Pretty sure he's in Mt Juliet @DUXBUSTER

PM sent.

Some folks will need a lot more than three seashells if that happens.

Good luck. I know how antsy I get when waiting!

How much for the coaster?

I bought a 17 what? 8 years ago? Took it to the range and hated how big it was. Fired my friends 19 and it was a perfect fit.

Is smokeless powder designed for use in small arms ammunition subject to the explosives storage requirements? Español Smokeless powders designed for use in small arms ammunition are exempt from regulation under 18 U.S.C. Chapter 40 and the regulations in 27 CFR Part 555. Packaging that readily identifies the smokeless powder as being designed for use in small arms ammunition may help in determining whether it is entitled to the exemption. Smokeless powder designed for use other than in small arms ammunition, and explosive products such as squibs, fireworks, theatrical special effects, or other articles that may contain smokeless powders, are regulated and must be stored pursuant to the regulations at 27 CFR 555, Subpart K – Storage. It should be noted that persons engaged in the business of importing or manufacturing smokeless powder designed for any use must have a Federal explosives license. Further, importers of smokeless powder designed for use in small arms ammunition must also possess an ATF firearms importers license (Type 08 or 11); must register with ATF under the provisions of the Arms Export Control Act; and must submit (to ATF) and receive an approved ATF Form 6 – part I (5330.3A), Application and Permit for Importation of Firearms Ammunition and Implements of War. Last Reviewed October 4, 2018 pasted from aft.gov thats all I need to read on this. It’s in the faq and they can’t expect anyone reading faq to look up a regulation. No limit

I almost did the same thing on gunbroker. Except I miss read the listing and thought it was .380. I decided that if I won the auction (like 300 rounds) I was just going to have to buy a pistol in 38 Super. Luckily (I guess) someone out bid me. With 850 rounds, you might as well pick up a pistol in 38 Super

And how do you guys know these reports are accurate? What is your criteria for determining what is fake news and what isn't?

What better way to save some money for a Christmas gift than to just do mostly gun work on a desired subject of the recipient, in this case my son. When we were in Sarco's show room a number of years ago, he spotted this Greener GP shotgun and they only wanted $275 for the danged thing! The gun was glued to his fingers as we checked out the rest of the stuff there. Well, the gun came with a 2 3/4" chambered 30" modifyed choke barrel and it was a take down model that is pretty interesting in its self. All you do is just loosen the screw head there by the forend and hand turn out the barrel. The screw acts as a simply clamp screw closing the receiver ring around a well fit barrel shank. He all ways thought having a Rifled 12 gauge barrel to swap in would make it a Really nice GP gun as was stamped on its side. Numrich had the Mossberg 512P barrel used and I was able to cut most all of the (bad idea) ports off for a handy 18 1/4" barrel length. The scope base is a weaver that I was able to put 4, 8x40 screws into the beafy Mossberg 512 Rifled barrel. And that sits shouldered up to a High Standard pistol rear sight that comes with a 90 degree face as a recoil shoulder for the base and yet is usable as open sight with the orange bead up front. Other extras include cutting the Original barrel down to 26" chambering it for 3" as well as for the 512 and putting a Win Choke II on the end. A 1" Pachmayr recoil pad in lew of the home made plastic thing that was there. A trigger job and fixing the safety so it wouldn't go into safe with each lever drop. Topped off with a 15 oz Vector 1-5 illuminated dot cross hair scope. Then the Rings were extensively worked over also. They used to be one piece with a single clamp in the middle. I cut the unit in half and milled each ring for weaver square cross pins and nuts. Now these rings seat the way they should with no re-zero needed between barrel swaps. All this was Christmas and Birthday gift from me since he turned 28 2 days ago. Needless to say he's thrilled with this General Purpose Greener Martini now! Its now nic named Thor. He's having a good new year so far! He worked the last 4 years in the county jail as a Deputy Sheriff on 6-6 O-clock midnight shift and just started his new gig as Sheriff's Court Officer on days with weekends and Holidays off! even a $1500 bump in base. He deserved something different than store bought.....IMO.

Thanks guys, Goes to show you, a little imagination and a decent smith can crank out something that's a one of a kind hand me down for your family. Not to say some of the Collector guns posted here are beyond fantastic finds but this sort of thing is the other side of that coin.

That gun pictured is a rare 24 gauge. I don't think you are comparing apples to apples. But having said that you don't see Greeners every day for sure!

This sounds like an amazing idea. As a final word on the matter: @DispositionMatrixnobody (especially me) is buying your attempts to deny that you were doing exactly what you did here. Some of us have been on the internet since before the World Wide Web was even an actual thing. We’ve had enough experience with a specific type of online behavior to recognize it when we see it. If it looks, walks, and quacks like a duck then it’s a most certainly a damn duck. You're on thin ice. My tolerance for this kind of scatological material of a bovine origin is very low. This discussion is closed.

Looks like this one

Well, theres definitely more interest in all firearm types than ever before. And I think a lot of it is my age group, late 20's to early 40's. Most guys in that group have good jobs, are fairly settled, and guns are relatively cheap compared to some other hobbies. Priced a set of golf clubs lately? Or performance car parts? And by the time I hit 30, and most of my peers I know as well, we have all the tacticool we can stand so we start buying stuff that draws our attention. Old school steel, wood, high polish and engraving. Couple that with a restricted supply and prices start to sky rocket.

Lever rifles are no more valuable than they ever were. Your dollar is now less valuable, however. Have you tried buying anything else lately? A used car? A ribeye steak? A tank of gas?

I've collected levers for decades and prices for most aren't that far off. As i tell others just now discovering their price tag you better get what you want before it gets even more expensive

I've seen this gun and it's as described or better. This is a great gun for a High Standard collector. I was tempted to buy it "just because" it was so nice but I'd have wanted to stick it in the safe for another 20-30 years because it was too nice to shoot.

I use to have one. You should shoot it. Then you wouldn’t be able to give it up.

It is wise to print it off the IL. State Police website and leave in auto for the IL. LEO that do not know this newer law.

Here’s a one shot group I made just this morning. It went in through the shoulder on the far side. Looks like it works!

If you were closer, I'm thinking about selling mine. Can't get it to run consistently yet, gonna try a few things. They are like a poor's mp7 ha.

Been thinking about this since the thread started. Lots of favorites, but I guess #1 is my Colt Python from the mid-eighties. Shooting it just brings a smile to my face.
