60-61 RC?!?!? That would be a witch to sharpen! On the other hand, I'm sure it would hold an edge. I do wonder if it would be a bit brittle at that hardness. The other though about this is, these were designed for thrusting and the edge, might not be that important.

Do you think I'm a spring chicken? This stuff was produced back in the 80s or 90s. I got three bricks of .22 shorts that were made in the 60's, maybe. The Olin is match grade stuff for rifles. And yes, I need some HV rounds. Now to find some...

A single shot would be a cool little rifle to have too!

I must admit that tend to yawn at the thought of lever actions chambered in 30-30, but I have always wanted a bolt action in 30-30, like the old Stevens 325. I’ve always thought that the 30-30 with a spitter type bullet would be a great round and a fairly mild shooter.

Took it this afternoon and ran a couple of magazines through it. It’s very accurate! I could keep them in an inch at 7 yards. However, after the first 5 rounds, I started having issues with extraction. These are known to have tight chambers. The second mag was no better. In fact it got worse, with unshot rounds not chambering. I’m going to give it a good cleaning and oiling and look for some hotter rounds. I was using standard velocity rounds.

We bought 4x4x8s back in May for $8. Bought one Saturday for $19 at Lowe’s. Talk about pissed off!!!

Joe Biden can kiss my ass! Unless I’m not social distancing, I will not wear a mask outside.

No wonder people don’t trust the damn Government!

Well damn! That’s just stupid!

Went to an estate sale yesterday and picked up this Stoeger Luger .22, with an aluminum frame. I think it’s one of the best examples of one that I’ve seen. Really a bit surprised by the size and heft. It’s very close to the only Luger P08 that I’ve ever fired! Hopefully I’ll get to shot it tomorrow.

Figured it out. Thanks for the help, Dave!

222 new cases reported by Knox County Health Department! That’s up from 157 yesterday and the biggest reported one day total so far! 62 dead and 50 in the hospital.

Prettiest one you’ve made yet, IMO!

Where can I get cheap 38spl caliber ammo?

That's just Fkn' ridiculous right there. I feel abused just looking at it!!! Seriously, if you walk into RK at the right time, they were selling a 50rd box for $17.99. I'm not sure of the brand they put out, but it was in a red and black box, the best I remember. Didn't pay that much attention to it, since that wasn't what I was looking for. -
I couldn't even watch that whole video. UGGG! What a piece of crap.

I still got a Gen 2 and the Tupperware to go with it!

Legality of SBR for concealed carry

Welcome to the forum! We do get a bit contankerous from time to time, but its a good group with lots of great information! -
Dang you guys! I was in Crossville yesterday and stopped in an Antique store with my wife. Saw a couple of the Camillus Marine fighting knives and ended up picking up one of them. Camillus had the primary contract to make the MK II knife for the Navy and the Marines in WW II, through the Vietnam War and afterwards. It’s the same knife as the famous KABAR. I really have no idea why the KABAR is the more famous knife, other than there were fewer made. Anyway, this is a commercial version made in the 90s Or early 2000s. And before you ask, I’m a fan of Camillus knives. They were a great American knife company before mismanagement caused them to go under in 2007. edit: Figured it out!

This was Geco 115gr. I’ve always had good luck with them.

Picked up 5 boxes of 250 rounds of 9mm ball ($13.99)and 3 boxes of 20 rods of SIG/Sauer .380 JHP ($14.99) at the Rural King in Crossville today. Happened to walking in as they were restocking. After I purchased 4 boxes, I went out and got my wife and she bought 4 more. There was a limit of 4 boxes of pistol, 4 boxes of rifle and 4 boxes of shotgun ammunition. .22LR counts as pistol ammunition. They also put out .38 Spl JHP and 7.62x39 while we were there. They still had lots of hunting ammunition. So did Dunham’s. But Dunham’s hardly had any pistol ammunition. Just oddball stuff like 460S&W.

I imagine that 5.56 does a number on brain tissue. Probably turns to a lot of it into liquid, from the hydrostatic shock.

I have an idea for a storm shelter.

My parents had a space like that under their porch. It was a lot of storage room. Just becareful, it will stay damp, if you don't take steps to seal it and de-humidify it.
