Thanks. Got any tips on best places to pick them up besides Midway?
-
So what are your guys experience with different brands/types of AK mags? Magpul, surplus, bakelite, Tapco, ProMag? Which gets you the best bang for the buck?
-
I saw these for sale somewhere. If I remember the pricing, it was a lil premium over their normal. I worry about what they are coated with.

Concept model of the Go Pro, Alpha Model

It's the short attention span...

It better do things that my wife won't for that kind of money.

And the truth came to light.....Batman hated squirrels....

My tired eyes must be lying..Is that $82,000?
-
I am betting the best ones never make it to sale anyway. Next you will have to get a prostate exam with a Garand before you can pay them for the 1911.... They are basically making it so hard that 50% of people will not even try.

Post the last firearm related thing you bought!

Animals in the bed at night is where I drew the line EARLY on. As far as my wife knows I have a .410 shotgun and a couple .22lr rifles. Hopefully she never pokes around too much..... -
Finally went and did it.... I own a muzzleloader

Well I am trying to slow my purchasing. Family budget has changed. May have more later. My Dad has a few now, but we never had them or bows growing up. In a pinch my 12ga break action can act as a smoothbore. So there is that. -

Wait so you guys actually get to sleep in the bed sometimes? I pretty much stay on the verge of having to camp in the back yard.... -

Good advise in lots of pursuits in life. I might look at that, but depends on price. For now not willing to put a ton into it until I see if I like it. I think those kits run about as much as I paid for the rifle. -

Greg Cool, thanks. Trying to understand it all before I go off just buying stuff. Btw, what powder do you use? -

So do the fiberglass rods have ends to put on to add jags and brushes? -

Thanks Quietguy and Greg. Hope to get some time to play with it thos weekend, though that will not be shooting. I want to pull it all apart and clean it up good. I did get a wrench, actually 2. I will see what I can pick as a rod. What length would be normal with a 22 inch barrel? -
I agree. And those that say it is bad just because it happened under Obama are falling into the trap that the current administration is exploiting to get their agenda pushed through.

More proof that Beretta is not real interested in selling guns. I got this in the mail. Maybe 2 pages of guns/parts, 1.5 pages of knives, 30 or so pages of clothes.... $50 T-shirts and $300 jackets. They wasted the postage on me.

Well after missing a CVA a while back, I met a guy today to buy what he said was a Knights Mk-85. Turns out it is. MML T-5 in 50 cal. Reading tells me this was Knights try at cheaper in lines back in the 90's. This is made in Italy. Price I paid still makes me feel ok. I got the tool and a partial tin of #11 caps with it. Nobody laugh, I paid $75 and it has a Simmons 3x9 scope with peek under rings. I did not notice until home that the ramrod looks short, maybe was broken??? Opinions? Now I have to figure out what the h3ll I am doing. Never used BP before, but since I am trying to get back hunting, it will help me extend my season. I already know I am useless with a bow. Anyone had one of these? A forum said Knights told them they are the same as the Wolverine. I downloaded the generic manual from Knights, but woulkd like some more info. Any idea how long the ramrod should be? I think the info said it was a 22 inch barrel. Looks like Numrich sells an aluminum one that is 22 inches and threaded at each end for $5. I am still looking around, but any input would be nice. Oh and the bad side, I barely missed a sweet Ruger Security Six .357 he had up for sale with a bunch of accessories.... Can't win them all.

The tank would not have gotten far enough to make good progress if they had been paying attention. A tank is strong, but slow to maneuver. And fences can be rebuilt. Well since the one girl killed the other, not sure they would still be around either way.....

The group's make so many tactical and organizational errors that the TV show is the only reason they are still alive. I agree the prison would have been a perfect spot. Clear cell block by cell block by piking them through the bars BEFORE opening the door. And close all the doors at night... Go out from the prison and set up some noise makers like the Governor to pull them away from your area. Maybe even put up some stakes like Morgan did to let them trap themselves. Find some sligshots to let people kill the fence ones off so no one has to get close to them routinely. A few good rocks should do it since they can crush the skull by stomping in it. If not, one person with a 12 foot j hook rebar and another with the same sharpened off could clear them. No one needs to be using pocket knives on them. Even with the back of the prison down, they could just lock off that area or repair the back fence. Then if people attacked just move deeper and engage them from safe positions. I mean in reality no one is attacking with a tank and you not hear them coming to send people to flank them. And on one final note, save the rpgs until you really need them. They waste so much firepower on crap.

Maybe by sculpting him "without those"...

The big thing that bugs me lately is all the nick of time arrival of people. They just show up at the right time ....... a dozen times?????
-
Eh...They played it up as huge...not to me. It is a big exit of a long time character but not life changing for the show really. Once again Rick could have shot Neegan, but did not. After going out the window he still had his gun. Stand upland blast Neegan already. He can't reach you and did not seem to have a gun. Neegan is not bulletproof. Kill him already.

Poor poor truck......
