  1. Often people comment on how dirty a certain brand of ammo is. It's all dirty AFAIK but sometime after using a certain brand, type or vintage you are left wondering "what did they put in this?" So what's the dirtiest, filthiest, most bore-fouling ammo you've ever used? Black powder doesnt' count. I'll start. About a year ago Palmetto had a deal on cases of Yugo 7.62x39. Case of 1260 rounds shipped for something like $199. I jumped at the opportunity to feed my Yugo SKS. Received said bewlitts several days later and anxiously opened the beat up crate. Inside was not a hermetically sealed can of Iron Curtain ammo packaged to last for generations but 84 flimsy white boxes with about 15 rounds apiece of brass cased, lead core, mildly corrosive Yugo ammo. Supposed to be some of the best (and it is). Looks like they were all picked up of some warehouse or cave floor and packed in those cheap boxes. Hands are filthy after loading up a stripper clip, finger black from grime. Each box of 15 has at least 3 or 4 years worth of headstamps, but that's ok as it all comes from the same factory, Prvi Partisan. When shooting the ammo it's like a musket going off. Smoke everywhere. I think they scooped up powder off the ground, mixed in some dirt, maybe sawdust and Serbian sweat for good measure. It is accurate and sure firing but dang, the clean up is a chore. Patch after patch of black.
  2. TV ain't what it used to be.
  3. Yep. Guns & Ammo are gone on Peters Rd. Where have you been? Word around the campfire is there is a new sporting goods chain opening up on the west side. Academy maybe?
  4. That's why you need an M39!
  5. I was regularly referred to as an Adonis by my high school Etymology teacher. She looked like Mike's mother in that show Mike and Molly.
  6. I've learned but keep forgetting not to put too much of a cheek weld on Rodina. Last time out the teeth on the other side of my head ached.
  7. Look for a couple of old dudes and me arriving by 11.
  8. I really appreciate you natsi's letting me know there was a shootenanny today with all my favorite weapons. I've got enough 8mm to load up a belt or two for the 42 and a few mags on the MP 40. Those are what I consider "Powerball guns". If I ever hit that number, those will be the first in line. Sounds like you guys had a blast.
  9. You can't deny it. There apparently is a little bit of Russian in all of us.
  10. I guess that jackass with the cell phone is about to find out how much an Ultra Glide costs.
  11. Like I said, maybe too quick to judge but I would not be surprised in this day and age if everyone just kept on going.
  12. What I noticed is no one jumped out to help. I know traffic had just stopped but I would have bolted out of the car to see if the guy needed any help.
  13. The Sea Chase. He sounded just like John Wayne but was Karl Ehrlich.
  14. He even played a German ship captain.
  15. Saw one at Shylock's today. They had three bolt shotties. Didn't look at any of them but one was a Marlin I believe. It had a 36" barrel. I've always wanted a Marlin Super Goose Gun. You know, the 10 gauge version.
  16. True. Marion Morrison never served during WWII but he did pump out a bunch of mighty fine war movies.
  17. Does that include 2,000 rounds of every brand of ammo?
  18. Museum of Appalachia
  19. All lovers of privacy and liberty should be proud. Congress OKs Last-Minute Patriot Act Extension - FoxNews.com
  20. You got made. Try to look official.
  21. Congratulations! So you went from not liking wheelguns guns to one of the biggest made? Not caliber, just size. Those Rugers can handle anything you want to put through it.
  22. You are aware that they are capable of being fired with the magazine removed, right? Says it right on there the gun. I've never heard a bad thing about them.
  23. I wouldn't know how to cope with that.
  24. No man is complete without a 1911. Do you have a garage you can sneak it into.
