Have any of you gun nuts ever noticed that what’s in the rifle rack in the Mayberry courthouse/Sheriff Taylor’s office is different every episode? There’s always a couple or few mil-surps, old shotguns, etc., but the arrangement and types of long arms always changes.

Anybody shoot their older rifles much?
Garufa replied to Quavodus's topic in Curio, Relics and Black Powder
Not as much as I used to and would like to. I did take my US M1917 out for it’s 100th birthday last week and it was thoroughly enjoyable. -
How fast did you get over there after reading the Sunday paper?

@Hozzie is right. It doesn’t make much sense to buy something with the intent of it being an heirloom. Too many emotions and variables long term. Get what you want and a good .22 rifle to teach and have fun with. If it takes then whatever you used may or may not become something to be treasured. And get something in a normal caliber. One that ammo is widely available for and will be a long time.

Where to get fingerprinted with ink
Garufa replied to Erik88's topic in Handgun Carry and Self Defense
They can’t even count votes down there. Something as complicated as looking at fingerprints probably blew somebody’s mind. -
That was one savage buck. I have no problem with hunting but that beast deserved a long and natural life.

Crazy ain’t it?

Palmetto State has that beat with free shipping and a better price on the 9mm. https://palmettostatearmory.com/black-friday-sales/black-friday-ammo/black-pack-rebate.html

This ammo is rated at 2910 fps at the muzzle. Too hot for a Garand without an adjustable gas plug.

“The gun's name, RAMI, is derived from combining the first two letters of the designers' given names, Radek Hauerland and Milan Trkulja.” https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/CZ_2075_RAMI

DOJ rules that bump stocks ARE machineguns
Garufa replied to Chucktshoes's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
What exactly is a true republican? I’m being serious. There is a distinct difference between political parties and what the vast majority of Americans truly believe and want. -
Manufacturers don’t really divulge that kind of information nor would it make any difference. My understanding is they use stuff and blends of stuff not generally available off the shelf. The Power-Shok does appear to be very clean and accurate though. I blew 40 rounds through a 100 year old M1917 last weekend and holes were touching each other at 100 yards. Just ran a patch through the barrel with not a whole lot of residue.

Most effective 30-30 ammo for deer?
Garufa replied to maroonandwhite's topic in Ammunition and Reloading
10 boxes is the limit. I was eyeing that 30-30 the other day while stocking up on 30-06. https://promotions.vistaoutdoor.com/EN/US/Promo/66/67/EntryForm -

That Federal is currently $9.97 at Walmart and Federal has the $5/box rebate going. -
Red flag laws claim their first victim
Garufa replied to gregintenn's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
I have mixed feelings on these types of laws. There is no doubt some people should simply not be allowed to have guns in their possession. There is also the potential for rampant abuse of one’s rights. -
They do and they're tasty.

I recall those dark days and the return of "Classic" Coke. "Classic" did not and does not taste like it did before this scam. I believe that is also about the time they quit using sugar and started with the high fructose corn syrup. There is a difference.

I always wanted a Finnish Lahti L39. It's a beast.

Today I stopped by Walmart in need of 30-06 as I don’t want to break into my stash of HXP M2 ball held in reserve to feed the Garand. They have Federal Power-Shock 150 gr SP for $11.97/box. Cheapest they sell so that’s what I wanted. Looked it up later to see what I bought and it appears Federal is running a $5 per box rebate. Score. It might take three months to get that $10 back but when it’s all said and done that’s a mighty fine price for ammo. I’m cheap like that.

While there is not much they can get passed, it will be interesting, frightening perhaps, to see the bills they throw up against the wall. It will also show what is going to happen when they get total control of Congress and the Presidency.

I happened in 1967.
