I don't know how good these work, but the reviews are promising. It will make shooting the AR-15 alot cheaper

22LR bullets in larger .224" bore of AR15s won't produce accuracy as good as dedicated 22LR uppers/rifles but are great for close range training drills and plinking.

FYI, Black Dog magazines with stainless steel feed lips on sale for $17 - https://www.joeboboutfitters.com/Blackdog-AR-15-22-Sonic-Weld-X-Form-Magazines-w-p/bdm-sw-ss.htm

I have only used copper plated/washed 22LR high velocity with my CMMG conversion bolts and even cheapest Federal 36 gr HP in 525/550 round bulk box to various other brands all have worked well to cycle the bolts and shoot to point of aim out to 25 yards I train for fast point shooting with thumb forward on barrel shroud (With scope, I can chase shotgun shell all over the place). I have tested the CMMG bolts to point of failure around 1000-1500 rounds and they definitely work more reliable when kept clean with Hoppes #9 solvent.

My answer to this question is almost always "Yes"... I wish I could let more than 3 days pass without buying something gun related! :rofl:

Between ammo, parts, targets, cleaning supplies, and cool stuff I don't actually need but want... there is always something draining my wallet in this hobby. :uhoh:

New clips for my IWB holster and base pads for some 1911 mags.

Ignition Override · Feb 28, 2022

Yes. Again. Another 1,000 rds. of .308. I've only had the rifle about a month.

Ammo prices I compare on Ammoseek go up >> every day<< since the war began.

I bought a ticket to the local gun show. I passed on purchasing anything because of the crazy pricing. I think the vendors were there to show off their wares rather than sell them. Some of the most egregious being sold were $52 per pound of Varget, and a post 64 Winchester 94 in NRA fair condition for $1275.

I bought a conversation barrel (.40>9mm) for my Shield40 and two 9mm mags.

I may have given into my baser instincts and ordered a new rifle scope from Swampfox over the weekend. I’ve been wanting to upgrade my dedicated precision rifle from a 4-14x to a 6-24x for a long time. Now I just need to figure out some places where I can stretch my legs out past a kilometer, and find an easier way to set up targets at that distance

Gun-related for my usage of it:

Thanks for the info. I'm hoping to get out this weekend, if the rain holds off.

Rockrivr1 · Feb 28, 2022

Just bought this very nice Uberti 1875 “Frank” Outlaw in 45LC.

Rubone · Feb 28, 2022

Several boxes of elusive .270WSM ammo for a somewhat reasonable price, and a case of 7.62x39 also at a fair price.

GunnyUSMC · Mar 1, 2022

I bought a Sig Sauer 3-9 scope and a Ruger American in 308 Win. , yesterday, for my grandson.

Stevie-Ray · Mar 1, 2022

325 rounds of Federal Auto Match, 21 bucks. Just to replace what I've used in the last month or so and keep up supply while available.
Also ordered 2 Savage 64 magazines just now.

aaaaa · Mar 1, 2022

Does range time count? I took my S&W 642 revolver to the range yesterday. Put my third 100 rounds thorough it. I can see some improvement but a long way to go on double-action trigger and reloading among other things. I have 300 rounds of 38 Special FMJ range ammo on the shelf, so will be going back.

Choctaw · Mar 1, 2022

AR PDW and a blast can.

Blues1 · Mar 1, 2022

Remington 1911 enhanced

thunderbyrd · Mar 1, 2022

I went to the local China Buffet and got two big plates of carry out. What does that have to do with guns? I also got two free sets of chop sticks. I have no idea how to eat with 'em but they are very handy for gun cleaning. We eat a lot of carry out so I've got lots of chopsticks.

Off in another part of the state for training. Wanted to stop in at least once and see what they had. Wasn't anything exciting, found some polymer Circle 10 AK mags for $15 also grabbed 4 more boxes of 7.62x54r ammo. He seemed happy to be rid of it. Probably not a big seller in a tourist area of a city. Also grabbed 2 boxes of Federal. 22wmr and some targets from Bass Pro

Bought some gun grease not to be confused with a grease gun

jags · Mar 4, 2022

Found some powder today.

I couldn't decide whether to get a 3D printed gun or one that was made from common hardware, so I split the difference... .

Rubone · Mar 4, 2022

Case of Tula 7.62 at a good price for the backup inventory. Who knows when it will dry up?

swg1 · Mar 4, 2022

Buncha mags of capacity greater than ten rounds as my local legislature is composed of idiots voted in by the masses of local idiots. More mags next paycheck.

KyJim · Mar 5, 2022

Just got some Tripp Cobra Mags and follower/spring upgrades, all in .45 acp.
