[Wanted 35 Caliber bullets]

What particular.35 are you reloading for?

[Wanted 35 Caliber bullets]

Try Midsouth.  The have  .35, 177 grain, .355 dia. In stock.

[Who says .45 ACP is not popular anymore?]

I collect .45’s U.S. military marked pistols.  If you don’t think you want it anymore PM me.  It was developed to stop a drugged up enemy.  Yeah, it’s a handful to carry, but when TSHTF, is the 9mm good enough?  I’ll take the flying ash tray.

I’m am a big fan of Dillon.  I purchased mine used many years ago.  I boxed them and sent them to Dillon.  Brand new machines when I got them back.  My 550 is getting a little tired and needs a rebuild, but I hate to see the bare spot on my very cluttered loading bench.

The square deal will run nothing bigger than a .30 Carbine.  As far as pistol bullets go, it’s a ‘Mack Daddy’.  I also run a 550.  My big bitch with it is, I’m unsure the primer is seated correctly.  My 550 is old with many rounds through it (see my user name).  I have added several upgrade to the primer system, the best one being a roller bearing in back to keep the primer bar in alignment.

[O/U shotguns opinion]

I know of a guy that is in poor health that very well may never pull a trigger again.  He has a SKB , grade unknown, but I believe it’s the top grade.  But he has all the different gauges that fit the receiver, 12, 20, 28, and I believe .410.  This could be the answer to all your request.  Not cheap as they are no longer manufactured that I know of, but what a score that would be. If he decides to sale, you will have to out bid me.  I have one and many years ago I was walking to my position in a dove field.  Someone yelled high bird and no one shot at it.  I took one shot and downed the bird.  The guy standing next to me ask, “Is that a shotgun or an antiaircraft gun”.  I just grinned and walked on.

That is often the problem, if you buy $100 or $200 worth of components and pay $15 to $20 in shipping, it hurts.   Plus, I like to support smaller local places.  

I agree on buying from your LGS.  But they have nothing.  Gotta jump if you need something.

Mid South Shooters Suppy in Clarksville is getting powder and bullets in.  

[This Glock 19 might win over the die-hard 1911 types]

It’s a Glock.  What else do you need to know.  You can put lipstick on a pig, but it’s still a pig.

[Where can I score some deal on reloading equipment?]

Clue me in to what you guys mean?  Please, not throwing stones, just trying to understand.  Thanks

[Where can I score some deal on reloading equipment?]

You can try “reloading equipment ONLY”.  There is a lot of stuff for sale on that site.  Primers are going to be your bigger problem.  “Midsouth Shooting Supply” has a good selection of powder and bullets.

[Best handgun with collecting value]

I’m thinking the U.S. property marked .45 acp.  The prices just keep climbing.  If your on the CMP list, you can get a service grade for $1050.00.  Lesser grades are cheaper.  Now go to your LGS and see what their price is.

[New Toy - H&K 41]

Let me do a count of steel vs aluminum.  I’ll get back to you.

[New Toy - H&K 41]

To be on the line at Knob Creek at night with one of these.  BL-C2 powder with magnum primers.  You would light up the night.

[New Toy - H&K 41]

I had a G3 converted to a HK 51 Fire Dragon.  It is considered the smallest true machine gun anywhere.  The blast from the 6” barrel was just too much and you had to screw your heels in the ground.  Anyway, I sold it years ago to a Special Forces guy.

I have a number of G3 mags stored away.   PM me if interested.

Must have been a heck of a time.  I've heard stories about $100 SKSs, $70 Mosins with a span can of ammo, and $25 German Mausers.  I was slightly too young to take advantage. 

I paid $25 for my original 1942 Mauser sniper (no scope).  $35 for my factory fresh hex receiver Mosins.  $125 each for 10 Winchesters and Rockollas. $85 for my SKS with a case of ammo thrown in.  Yes, those were the days.  My first Garand cost $135.

[Norinco Yellow Box]

I just checked and the yellow box has steel case bullet heads.

On another note, can anyone fill me on a unopened cast of 7.62x39 South African?  I’ve had it laying around for years to shoot in my SKS’s and AK’s if I ever get around to shooting them.  Thanks.

[Another west coast escapee.....]

Tell me about it.  I have a 1939 Packard 110 business coupe I finished about 15 years ago.  Now I’m restoring a 1938 Lincoln Zephyr three window coupe.  Parts are almost impossible to source.  They will bury me in this car as it’s my final restoration.

[Info needed on AK47]

As soon as I figure out how to take this thing apart, I will provide pics.  Thanks for above information.  BTW, I also picked up a Chinese SKS with the mod for a detachable mag.

[Info needed on AK47]

I just acquired a AK47 under folder.  The receiver is marked ‘Armory USA’ on bottom, ‘SIA Gardnrvl’ on left side of receiver, and ‘MOD AUSA’, serial number 1913 on right side.  Anyone got a clue to what I have?  Thanks.

[What would it take….]

Talk about a can of worms!  Look on YouTube for a short film on making primers.  The cost will be very high, the over site by Uncle Sam will be high, the dangers of the primmer compound will be high.  Then try to get insurance.

Not to nag, but you should have stocked up.

[HK USC with optional UMP conversion parts]

PM incoming. 

[Powder storage limit?]

Is there a maximum powder storage limit in Tennessee?

[WTB 45ACP Ammo]

You can check over on the CMP web site in ‘for sale or trade’.  I see .45 show up often.  As to “ per robbery “, I’ll let you be the judge on that.

[Curtailing my shooting activities]

Well,  on some of the different forums I’m unloading some ammo.  It’s mostly collector ammo like armor piercing incendiary, tracer, and AP.  I have no use for this ammo as I’m old and I’d like a younger generation to have it.
