Have you purchased anything gun related in the last three days?

Hi...
Another little gun shop tour today.
Bought a hundred small pistol primers...all they would sell, one hundred per day per person per type.

At another shop I bought two loading blocks, a hundred Starline .44Spl cases and put a Rock Island 1911 .45ACP on layaway.
I don't need another 1911...I just wanted one and my son has been pleased with his Rock Island 1911, so I decided to give it a shot(pun intended).

Some more Hoppes elite.

A flat of 12 gauge target shells. $85. I was pleased. And some Clenzoil wipes.

I had some hours banked so I left work early Friday. Wife & I hit a few LGS seeking a P365 with manual safety. At the end of our tour she decided she really likes the Ruger Max9 so it came home with her.
I really liked "saving" $170.

1 (50 rd) box of CCI Stinger .22lr, 1(50 rd) box of Federal 357 magnum FMJ and 1 (25 rd box) of Hornady 410 Critical Defense 2 1/2".

I bought 2 boxes cci of each today at walamrt in. 22 lr standard vel. 22 mag target and varmint. At pre-covid prices. The sales gal did not enforce the 3 box limit. Since they had a lot of each.

I bought a P320 FCU and recoil spring, so now I have all the parts to assemble another P320 (having previously upgraded to optics-cut slide, threaded barrel, and new grip module).

A new more stable/solid front rest and a bag for it!

I ran across nine boxes of Aguila 22 HV ammo in the farm & ranch this morning and bought it all. I have grandchildren to provide for.

Let's see, spare mags, a spare 4 hole turret for my lee press, a steel guide rod for my Ruger, A compact 4x scope for an inexpensive Savage .22 Semi-Auto, oh, and an inexpensive Savage .22 Semi-Auto.

I think that is all so far this week.

Just couldn’t help myself.
Magpul bipod and an Inforce weapons light.

Gunny... what’s the listed weight on that bipod? And is it anodized alloy or some kind of polymer?

Found a BSA Martini international in a hole in the wall gun shop.

Nearly complete, full sights and only missing the front sight inserts, single point sling and 10 round side mounted ammo box.

It's a honking beast at 14.3#.

Paid 485 OTD. Since it has sat for over a 2 years at this small shop.

2 (25rd) boxes of Hornady American Whitetail 6.5 Creedmoor from Midway.

Emperor Arms King 12 pump action.

Magazine fed,12 gauge .

Last week it was another M1 carbine [ 1944 issue ]

I’m not sure what the weight is, but it’s lighter then other bipods I’ve had.
The rail clamp and the large nut are made of steel. And the Can clamp pivots and turn.


The inter part of the legs are aluminum and everything else is polymer.


I’ve been wanting to get one since they came out but the $110 price tag was a bit steep.
I got lucky when I stopped by the pawn and gun shop yesterday. They had taken the light and bipod off a rifle they had just put out and they were on the back counter. I ask how much they wanted for the two and was told that they weren’t sure yet. After a little bit I was told I could have the light for $60 and the bipod for $40. I can hardly ever pass on a good deal, but I’m a sucker for a great deal. Both light and bipod are like brand new.

I bought a new 22 Magnum cylinder for my Heritage Rough Rider. I ordered some ammo for it last week and both the cylinder and ammo showed up today. Can't wait to get to range and test it out.

Gunny... you got lucky you weren’t arrrested for stealing those. I’m thinking I’m needing a bipod like that but doubt I’ll get that kind of discount.

More bullets for the rifles

Just ordered an EGW 20 MOA picatinny base for my 10/22. My club has started running NRL22 matches (like PRS with .22LRs) and I'm going to check that out.

A quick stop at Cabela's I found a few 200-round boxes of Herter's Target 5.56 (brass) @ $120.
Got my allowed 1 box.

There were a couple other choices for 5.56/.223 but the rest of the shelves were bare of rifle or handgun ammo.

Picked up the Hornady #11 loading manual and 150 rounds of Aguila .22 lr ammo last Thursday.

I install these on all my 1911's. I have wood grips and take them off frequently to remove excess oil that could soak into the grips. Just finished installing a set on my latest 1911 purchase:
