I have a H001T (Frontier model with the octagon barrel (pictured).
On an semi-related note, I also just inherited my dad's 1957 *unfired* Winchester Model 94. It looks like it just came out of the box.
I have over 750 stripper clips loaded with 5.56. To me, they're like gold. I also have a box of the G.I. issue loader spoons, as well as a handful of stripulas to load mags. I can load a 30-round mag in about 12 seconds using a spoon/stripula. I wish there was such a thing for .45 ACP it takes...
I cut the fingers off leather work gloves and put them over the barrels when they're sitting in the safe. Keeps the dust/critters out.
To the OP, you should always check the action and visually inspect the weapon before trying to use it, especially if it's been in the safe a while.
I'm glad to see more software developers interested in shooting. I did CamoPicker.
What are you writing in? CamoPicker is written as a C#/Winforms app, but 'm working on converting it to C++ using Qt framework so it can be used on Linux/Apple boxes as well.
I have two AR-15's and maintain 18 loaded 30-round mags (16 in bandoliers, one in each rifle), and six loaded 20-round mags.
I also have two 1911's, both in Condition 1, and maintain 12 spare loaded mags.
I use Tula in my AR-15s. Even after 3000+ rounds, I've experienced absolutely no problems.
It's more than $100 cheaper than LC Brass ammo (in cases of 1000)...
I use the Primary Weapons Systems Enhanced Buffer Tude. It eliminates the need for a castle nut, and provides a QD sling swivel hole on both sides of the lower. It's much more expensive than a standard buffer tube/castle nut, but it's a much nicer unit too.
If you have a $1000 budget, you can't buy a rifle, ammo, and accessories (optics being the most important), and that statement is based on the way your original message was worded.
When you figure decent optics start at $400 (Aimpoint PRO), and ammo is $350/1000 for Lake City/Federal brass...
The rule of thumb is that when you change ammo or are starting with a clean barrel, you should fire one round for every inch of barrel length in order to season the barrel. I fire 25 rounds for seasoning. (just enough on my CZ452, and more than enough for my Henry and 15-22).
I'm glad you...
I bought a Primary Arms Microdot for both of my ARs just to have something until I could afford an Aimpoint/EO-Tech. Well, my stars fell into alignment recently, and I ordered a couple of Aimpoint PRO scopes this week ($400 each at RifleGear.com). I should be receiving them on Monday.
I have...
I did that. It actually cost a little more to build the rifle the way I wanted it than the MOE I bout for $1150. The distinction is that with the S&W, I've spent close to $800 what I want it to be, and I still haven't replaced the barrel/handguard (an additional $400) - yet. When you add it up...
