I have a bipod on only one rifle, a Marlin 882, .22 magnum. It also wears a scope that’s more than it needs, a Simmons 4-12x44 that even has a 3”...
Chicharrones, you’ve got to tell us the story about that Thompson! That’s no 16” barreled modern semi auto version is it?
I’ve shared this before but it’s cool enough to put it up again. This is me sometime in the mid 70’s with my grandad’s old squirrel gun. He’d long...
The whole gun looks what space aged was in the 50’s or 60’s. And yeah, is that yours? If so give us a story of how and where you got it. And a...
By iconic I take it as what rifle do I see when I think of a particular time or event. This is what I came up with in terms of iconic American...
I got a handful of them in 9mm and they’re definitely brass. I cut them to make 9x18 for my Mak and it’s very obvious. I tumbled mine in walnut...
Yeah, who’d of thought anything 30-30 would be unobtanium? Cannot find a Lee factory crimp die anywhere. Resizing and seating dies weren’t much...
Bought my first, a Hungarian M44 for $65. Didn’t shoot great and I knew that it also was just a cheapo common rifle so I “sporterized” it. Chopped...
Am visiting Florida right now and stopped by an Academy Sports hoping to find something different than the current ammo / reloading famine at...
Once I found a single round of 7.62x45 in a box of 7.62x39. Can’t remember what brand of ammo it was, Wolf or Tula I imagine. This was somewhere...
In before this gets locked :)
In the spirit of making less lucky members feel better: I was just checking my hand loaded .223 stash and found one of the ammo boxes on my shelf...
Zahn, that add makes me want to cry.Guess it would put a smile on my face if I’d been around and bought a bunch of those back in ‘65.
I haven’t yet but if I found the right milsurp rifle a would / will. Sometimes they’re a challenge for ammo anyway so I say get ‘em when you can.
On second thought let’s not go to, The High Road, breaking in AR bolt carrier rings thread, ‘Tiz a silly place. Seriously though I only own a...
Of all times, hard to say. Probably my Garand or M1a. I have a few that I won’t sell but don’t know if I’ll ever have a favorite. That’s why I...
I like em. They almost always just sweep their brass off the pad and leave it there for guys like me. :D
Second this on that surplus ammo. I got some in a bandolier when I first got my 1944 DOT 98K. I don’t know what the country of origin is but it’s...
I use IMR4064 because I couldn’t find 4895 when I started reloading for my Garand. Since then I’ve tried 4895 in both the Garand and M1a. Both...
I agree. That thing is really cool. I’m sure it’s fun to shoot too. Did you have it done do the work yourself? Whichever, it’s very well done.
