We would be more than happy to see what your Uncle left you. Family guns are always the best and often times you find that there are guns you have never seen before in the group. Safe travels.

My guess is gun owners club

Looks like they might have it online at $13.99 (same price). Free Shipping over $25. Couple other brands too. http://www.academy.com/shop/SearchDisplay?searchType=2&searchTerm=22 wmr&beginIndex=0&orderBy=4&pageView=grid&minPrice=&maxPrice=&pageSize=&categoryId=15759&

I had a cousin get distracted by a friend while taking a leak and turned his stream directly onto the electric fence. Boy did he yelp. Lol

I soooooo wish my Dad still worked as a machinist. We could have built windmills from scratch. In his younger machine shop days wayyyy long ago he refurbed a .50 cal windmill piece. Too bad is still is not part of the parts collection.

Just saw this picture of the SilencerCo Maxim 9. This is their first integrally suppressed handgun. Local armory says they are not sure on pricing yet.

Maybe he can be an example for all the people sitting on their butts whining they need a government check because they cannot find any work. Ryan Hickman's recycling business has recycled over 200,000 cans and bottles and banked him approximately $10,000. And did we mention Hickman is just 7 years old? http://mentalfloss.com/article/90784/meet-7-year-old-boy-who-runs-his-own-recycling-business?utm_campaign=newsletter&utm_source=mf&utm_medium=01_13_17-article_1-90784 That kid is going to go far.

The place I was in today is $15 transfer for the first gun $5 each after that in the same purchase. $10 BG check. They are goin up next week though. I did not recognize the lower brands, but I did not look too hard since I really need to hold off buying uless it is a great deal.

I was in s shop today and most I saw were almost a $100 before tax and bgc. Maybe I missed the cheaper ones somewhere.

Yeah that is nice. I worked in a retail store in a tourist area for 5 years. I feel your pain about the BS. I would probably just put a bunch back or on layaway and buy them at once so you even save the multi charge on background checks

Crap on crackers....

Wow, now that is one to remember.

Hipower Any chance you have a link to it? I looked on their site, but it is kinda hard to navigate for my mobile. Thanks

You mean you are going to use them as part of that windmill so you don't have to be on the electrical grid, right?

Good for him. Being the first on scene of a car crash is hard. I can't begin to imagine how hard it was to find some psycho beating an officer into the ground. A lot of people would have froze up. I wonder if the attacker caused the other car crash?

Interesting, but are we sure the journalist is not a Magpul employee? Lol It sounded like he read all the sales pitches and used them to build his story. So the Marines will now be using the same mag I can buy. We will see how that works in real combat. I am not a fan of the windowed mags. Just another way to get crap in the mag to cause "stoppages"

I agree completely. Even with the "use a hand drill" jigs it could go very wrong.

I plan on trying to get to one of the local ones soon. i missed the last couple. I had even thought about trying out an 80% lower, but I don't trust my skills that much yet.

I have at a few, but most have not had them when I asked. I think a lot of them go ahead and build a cheap AR with anything they have lying around. Several of the stores are handguns and hunting rifles only. I still have not gotten a good relationship with one that is close enough for frequent stops. The couple close are not a good fit for me on attitude or environment. The couple I like are way out of my way. Maybe if I was a "regular" I might get calls when they get something. I might have to break down and get some online from PSA or something. I just kind of hate to order a $50 lower off PSA and then pay $25 for transfer and background check. I know it spreads our if I order several, just still seems wrong. And, Yes, I know I sound like a cheapskate in this and some other posts, but I have a finite amount to spend, I had better make the best of it.

Maybe we will see the $250 milspec carbine AR. I agree on Magpul, I have it on my pieced together AR, but I bought a used set dirt cheap. Other than that I woukd have just had a cheap set. New take-off DPMS sets can be had for $10-$15. They do what 85% of shooters need.

ZJ, I have seen these. They have only shown up in the last few years. Mainly due to the .22lr drought. I did not say impossible to reload, I said barely possible. It can be done, but is a lot harder than centerfire ammo. You can reload a shotgun shell primer with crushed match heads, use black powder for the propellant, a piece of cardboard for a wad, and lots of stuff for projectiles. Home brewing the primer paste for Rimfire from scratch has to be harder.

So if prices are dropping, where is the best place for me to pick up stripped lowers? Not real picky on brand, as long as I have heard of it. I figure I could put a few back for later. I can't seem to find them locally. Every time I see an private sale ad for some, they are either way over MSRP, or the seller is like a ghost and never gets back to me. I figure I can pick other parts as cash presents itself. Thanks

OS I wondered that too. Looks like a Periodic Table got cut up and thrown around the forums. lol

No one is discounting them, but reloading the ammo is barely possible. At some point you will run out. At least with a centerfire, you can improvise reloading the primers and cartridges. Same for shotguns. I have my share of .22s and love them, but if you are planning for the long haul, you have to plan on running out of rimfire ammo at some point.

I might choose to load they shotshell back with a stack of washers or something else instead of the wax slug with that being the case. Of course the exact load would depend on its accuracy too. I think kind like the old cannon guys in a castle under siege. When they ran out of ammo they stuffed anything hard or sharp in there. Rocks, ham bones, broken swords, broken pottery... lol
