  1. I've always wanted a SVD and since I don't have 10's of thousands of dollars to get one of those or even a TIGR, I figured i would try for a PSL. I've been kicking myself for not getting one when they were $500. Well, fortune shined on me and I found one! Traded a Saiga 12 for it which I know is not necessarily an even trade but there won't be any more imported PSL's and I can always get another Saiga 12. I'm not near as up on my PSL markings as I am on AK stuff, but it appears to be a Romanian military grade build imported by TGI. It doesn't have any of the domestic manufacturing marks, so I believe this is a real deal military grade PSL. Definitely needs some trigger work, but I'm as happy as a tick on a dog!
  2. Hope it works out for you. I sure do like mine.;)
  3. As much as I hate taxes and most are unconstitutional, sales tax is the one tax that is legitimate, constitutional, and legal. Why do internet retailers get to sell without collecting taxes thus lowering their prices which allow them to undercut the local mom and pop stores and that is fair? 
  4.     I think you misread something. ;)
  5. Happens all the time and people get all surprised when we expect to physically verify ourselves their gun is clear. I've cleared round after round out of  "unloaded/empty" guns.   As to his Glock going off in his holster, I call him a liar on this one.
  6. He did sing at the Ryman and went hunting once with his sons. That'll get my vote!   Seriously, after all the years he's been in and those are two of the things he uses in an add to show his qualifications .... says loads. 
  7. Glad all the puppies are in good homes doing well. We've been able to keep up with most of them and everyone seems to be happy with the pups.
  8. I would take him to a store and let him handle a few. It's hard to tell from opinion or the internet what he might like best. At a certain price-point the difference in guns is all about fit in the shooters hand and features HE wants. I would also steer him away from 32 ACP. It is at best a dying caliber and very hard to find especially when there are ammo shortages. It had it's day and then the .380 took it away.    Being a Bersa guy you might want to look at the Thunder 9's or even the single stack Bersa Carry Nine's. Very nice guns for the money.
  9. Compared to most polymer framed guns it's a heavey gun. Very little recoil and nice to shoot but not as nice to carry. Upside is that it is a Berretta 92FS clone. IMO it is a little better due to having the safety mounted on the frame instead of the slide like the Beretta. Very nice guns for the money if you are looking for a full size frame, heavy, DA/SA gun.
  10. How about a Timney http://www.midwayusa.com/product/559350/timney-trigger-mosin-nagant-1-1-2-to-4-lb-steel-matte or a customized Mosin trigger http://www.surplusrifle.com/reviews/hubertriggermosin/
  11. [quote name="whitewolf001" post="1096055" timestamp="1389878245"]So it's a striker fired P250? Pass...[/quote] Yep. Don't know why they are trying round two with this abomination.

    Plumber Help?

    Plumbers are coming tomorrow to dig a new line. There is no way I could do it by hand or even with a trencher. Is a big rock garden with about 1.5" of dirt on top of it. On a side note, if anyone needs some decorative rocks I'll probably have plenty to share ;-)

    PSA

    I ordered one of the super cheap uppers on Jan 9th (actually 10th) and it will be delivered tomorrow. That being said their website still shows "processing" for my order.
  15. The OP's link is to what appears to be the prototype of the RDB, that will actually see production. The RDB is an RFB in 5.56

    Plumber Help?

    Well seeing that the main is galvanised, original to the house, and the house was built in '48... it's a whole new main line. Is not repairable in even a half way reasonable way. Plus the section that is leaking is where they used two 90's for a step-up as it goes up hill. If it where just a hole or crack, I could have used a sleeve and waited to replace the line later.

  17. Anyone know any good cheap plumbers in the Nashville/Madison area that could replace a section of water main on the house side for me? I have it dug up and know where the leak is just need about a 6ft run of galvanized  and some connections made.  Thanks
  18. While mags are not interchangeable between the M&P and the Shield, most of the internals and sights are interchangeable.
  19. Saiga 12.
  20. "Conditional Proceed" usually happen when TICS shows a denial qualifier that doesn't have a clear resolution or disposition. Since by law they have to give a response within 15 days they will give the "Conditional proceed" to meet the requirements of the law while covering their legal butts.     The FFL can transfer on a "conditional", but assumes all legal liability in the transfer. I don't know of any brick and mortar or reputable dealers that will assume full legal liability for someone they don't know really, really, really well. Personal, I can't blame them. Risking their FFL and a possible sting in the federal pen on a felony isn't worth the risk.   If it has been longer than 30 days, you will have to do another TICS check to appeal. Essentially start the whole process over. After 30 days the initial transaction is legally dead.   The only way I know someone has gotten any information about their denial is to go to the TBI in person and supply all supporting identity information they request. They will not tell the FFL, customer, or anyone else anything over the phone or electronically due to privacy laws.
  21. You have and astigmatism. I really like the Bushnell TRS-25. Great little optic for the money.
  22. Assault rifles are full automatic/burst and can not be converted to either post sale unless it was registered or uses a registered "lighting link" made and registered prior to 1986.   That being said "Assault rifle" is the new boogey term that has replaced "Glock" and "AK-47" as the generic fear term for guns used in media and by politicians.   They also said nearly 50 guns were taken at a loss of $15K. That averages out to around $330 per gun. I think it is yet another example of not fact checking their terms and info.
  23. It's like gas prices. THey may spike and then go down but they never go back to where they were before the spike. Add to that that raw materials and gas prices continue to rise and the cost of ammo will follow those regardless of the momentary spikes.   In short, it won't go back to where it was.
  24. Haha, auto correct. Missed that one, but it may fit. I may no judgment calls on that one.
  25. Well, we should start with actual punishment. Since what we have is neither a deterrent or punishment for many criminals then the rest of the argument is mute.
