Looks like someone bought some ammo cans off that government auction site. Lol
-
I bought a Winchester 37a 12ga single shot. It refuses to cock the hammer when closed. Gratifying and frustration to work on. I think I know the issue, but there is no clear reason why it will not lock completely. I gotta stop buying broken guns. Lol I still have to test the Iver Johnson .32 S&W top break that I had to put the firing pin in.
-
Thanks You got it. I will start with the Win 37A 12ga I am cleaning up. Looks like no one has done anything ot it in 20 years.
-
Well if you are offering, I will take it. lol. I will PM you.
-
Hate it that bad or just have way too much?
-
Hey so how are you liking thr Frog Lube? Did you get the paste too? I am thinking of setting a full set to go across all my guns. Clean. lube and protect.

Crap. I was watching a Walking Dead marathon and missed this. Maybe next time.

I would love to get back to smithing. I took one day with a smith and was working on a forge. Things have gotten in the way though. Are you taking a group class? I had a hard time up here even finding a smith that would teach. They do have a local meet up once a month.
-
I hope so. Maybe we will see $200 complete rifles. Lol This one is a close price $450 if anyone needs am AR tonight. http://grabagun.com/windham-weaponry-carbon-fiber-223-16-flat-top.html

Grabagun sent an email with a couple ARs at $399 today. http://view.email.grabagun.com/?qs=2d4ac77b5362a17d86afd533dd44d99f34a700d27ae2a18d50f7c6e38142b02905fe02494656eca83a6cd348e81d0ab0820d6cfeb8c2cf8bfd616bce77707130 Just in case anyone missed it.

Already out there. Real-world aimbot: The $17,000 rifle with a Linux-powered scope

I saw 555 packs just sitting on the shelf in Bass Pro a couple days ago. Limit was one, but they had 10 at least.
-
I just bought myself a 12 gauge Winchester 37a. It needs a little work but it'll be great for just playing around. I want to try out cut shells and a few things.

Veterans respond to Starbucks criticisms re: refugees
Ronald_55 replied to Chucktshoes's topic in General Chat
I have never wanted to work at a Starbucks before, but I would love to do this. -
Nice to meet ya'
-
No I had not. Actually I had never seen one. It looks like the way they load sets them apart. They look nice, but as small as my budget is, I have to look at good guns not top shelf niche models. I am glad you guys have the cash to lay out for some of these. Hopefully some day I will. Right now, when I buy, it is to vary the depth of my stock more than for a specific gun. I am covering the basics you guys probably already have in hand. My mention on the Henry gun is an overall impression I have of Henry. They are nice guns, but all their models are expensive. Just my opinion. Like the old saying goes....it is worth about as much as teats on a boar.
-
The problem with Henry is that this single shot is over $400. To me that is way too much for even a nice new single shot gun. If CVA is their big competition, then they beat Henry by 50%
-
I bought a used car out of NC from a GA company. They charged me the TN tax and filed everything for me. Even shipped me the tag when they got it. Unless it is a small lot, they can probably file it all.

Need a lot of bulk brass in 556/223
Ronald_55 replied to my82cam's topic in Ammunition and Reloading
Yep, then we just need a bunch of sets of these to weed out the other calibers. SHELL SORTER http://www.shellsorter.com/ Or they make automatic ones, but they run around $1300 http://www.ultimatesorter.com/ I know a guy that used to work at a reloading supply house that used one similar to this to sort brass and weed out the tumbler media (corn cob). He said it was slick, but doing it 40 hours a week nearly drove him batty. -

Ronald_55 replied to my82cam's topic in Ammunition and Reloading
If you bid on that one, you might want to bid on this one if it stays cheap. It is in the same place and I bet you could work out a trade with someone. 220 lbs (approx.) Fired 300 Win Mag brass http://www.govliquidation.com/auction/view?auctionId=11849721 More 5.56 too http://www.govliquidation.com/auction/view?auctionId=11849508&convertTo=USD There is also .50 and 7.62 lots Or you could just try and reload these. lol http://www.govliquidation.com/auction/view?auctionId=11849581&convertTo=USD or these http://www.govliquidation.com/auction/view?auctionId=11872219&convertTo=USD Man I wish I could pick up some of these. I would need a tumbler the size of a concrete truck though. lol -
Either he had ill intent or was stupid. Walking up on a LEO with a weapon in your hands is never a good situation.

Glimpse at the new Classifieds Feature
Ronald_55 replied to TGO David's topic in Feedback and Support
I figure since TGO David does this as a side job to keep us all a place to talk and post that I will defer to his decision on changes until he starts to sound like Castro or Stalin about things. I am not sure I love the new classifieds on my phone ( I have to go landscape to scroll), but on the PC, they are easy to scroll through. I am editing to add one thing. The only thing I see so far that might be nice in the classifieds is if we could filter/sort by location. That would only work if the poster added a location though. Being up here in East TN, all the Nashville and Memphis guns are out of my reach. Still like to look a d drool, but if I could filter or sort them to get me stuff closer to home it would help out. -
.22 Short in the wild in East TN?
Ronald_55 replied to Ronald_55's topic in Ammunition and Reloading
I have not yet, but more because I am never by either location on my daily travels. I need to give them a call, but was waiting until I could swing by if they did have any. -

Ronald_55 replied to Ronald_55's topic in Ammunition and Reloading
Ok thanks I looked at their site. Too far to go for a box of shorts. We had a Sportsman Liquidators here, but it closed. That is why I thought I recognized the name. Wrong as usual. Lol
