In my home, I’m a revolver fan. Out on the road where I’m alert, it’s a auto.

If one has other persons sleeping in different rooms, then I would think very hard on what I would use in the case of the need to use firearms. Me…I would rather do some sheet rock and paint rather than burying one of my kids.

I agree with ReeferMac. I have a H&K M1 Super 90 with 9 rounds of 00 buck. Get by that and the place is yours. Short story: Years ago a guy took a .45 to a pawn shop. The owner was looking at it without clearing it. Pulled the trigger and bang. Round went through shop’s window, across a 4 lane highway, through the window of a Black & Decker sales office and killed a guy sitting at his desk. How I know, the poor guy bled all over the paperwork on his desk. They tossed the bloody stuff in the trash. My parts order was on his desk.

The M5 is thought by many to be the ‘Cadillac’ of beam scales.

I. Made my living doing electronics, instrumentation and process control. I use a beam scale. I take physics over strain gauges every time. Thanks

Where did all these reloaders come from? I go to my local range and a lot of guys ask if I reload. I say yes, and they give me their brass. I’m looking at my primers with price tags from $19 to $31 per 1000 bought years ago. We (reloaders) must be hoarding . If the “shtf”, how long can one hold out. Food, medical supplies, bad water, etc. will get us long before we run out of bullets.

Welcome neighbors! As the three stars on our state flag indicate, we have three distant regions in our state. If you like mountains, the only free fee National Park in the nation (Great Smokies Mountains), lakes, and of course Dollywood and Pigeon Forge for the kids, then it East Tennessee. Middle Tennessee is great also with the Nashville vibe and gentle rolling hills. West Tennessee is flat, hot in summer but then there is Memphis, bbq, and if you like to roll the dice it’s near.

Do any of your scales go back this far?

Sir, you are wrong. I’ll admit, you have one ugly firearm. But the winner is the AUG, Austria Ugliest Gun.

Those of us that have more primers than they will ever need to loosen up. Heck, I was selling to Tennessee guys primers last winter for $40.00 a brick, any favor. Just donated a brick of 209 shot shells primers to a collage student trying for the Nationals. Come on guys, this is the Volunteer State. The more of us that have ammo, the lesser chance of someone ( foreign or domestic) taken away our gun rights.

You might try “Reloading Equipment only! No components!”over on FB.

I was a geophysical well logging engineer for too many years. I set foot in more foreign places than I can remember. What did you do around the borehole? I always wanted but never got the tee shirt that said… We trip for days at a time. Our dope comes in five gallon buckets Our joints are 20 feet long. Our boss is a pusher.

Huh, that’s where I got mine, and you can see you what I paid.

Here in Knoxville I paid $469.00 before tax for the .45, less for the 9mm. Word is getting out on these and price is creeping up.

I purchased the SDS pistols in both 9mm and .45ACP. Took them to range to break them in. Wow! They ran like butter. Not one failure to feed, stove pipe, or jam. For an inexpensive pistol, I’m impressed

Here ‘tis: JMS Gutter Jeremy Saunders (865) 414-8265 Jeremy09saunders@gmail.com Good luck. Bob

I put gutter guards on my house this year. Getting way to old to climb. Was having the gutters cleaned by a local guy in west Knoxville. He suggested gutter guards. I didn’t want to pay what the big companies get to do the install. He said he would do for a price I though was fair. He went to a building supply place and purchased the aluminum ones like some of the big boys use. He said to stay away from plastic as the sun would do them in. He also tied my gutters back in where they were loose. If you live west, I can if you he information if you wish.

My crew chiefs used it when we were in the swamps of Ft. Stewart, GA. We collected a number of poisonous snakes, which we hung on como wire. We were armed with model 10 S&W.

New to the optics game. I picked up an AR-15 several months back. It’s got all these rails for mounting everything but a death ray. It doesn’t look anything like the the M-16 we carried back in the day. What I would like to now is....what is/are the best red dot/green dot optics I can mount on it. I guess I have relied on iron sights for too long with my Garands, M1A, FN/FAL’s, etc. Thanks

Yeah, +1 on ‘if they have any’’.

I had dealings with Intrac back in the day. They imported 5,000 from the Bavarian police. I picked up 10 each Winchester and Rockolla’s for 125 beans each. It helped my 401k.

I agree with WindHawk.

I’m with the original poster. I’ve got 50 cal. ammo cans full of .38 special, 9mm, .40 cal, and .45 acp. I reload.

Good luck. Guys that buy these tend to keep them. My M1A was built up by the Alabama National Guard Marksmanship Unit. Glass bedded with all the right parts. It will shoot way better than me. Should let it go as I never shoot it but just can’t.

If coating the bore of barrel, stellite or chrome might be a better choice. Unsure what that will do to the diameter of bore.
