Midway has been the only merchant name on my gun stuff mastercard for months now.. Great stuff great service, and 2 day shipping for me.

This thread reminded me to call AIM and verify my C&R was on file. Steve indicated that there is a fresh shipment of K-31's on the way and would be there in the next couple weeks. I will be holding off on my order until then.

The number of our buildings that get shot are far fewer than those customers that want to be prepared for such things. The telephone repeater huts and cell phone tower buildings are generally filled with tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of revenue generating equipment. (How much...

Am I the only one wanting to see pictures of Bruce B's van? I have been driving my retired service van (Astro) to the range for a while and found it quite handy for range stuff as well with the shelves and such in it. As far as the 10,000 rounds and 13 guns guy... Well, to each his own. I...

I bought a Savage 12V in .204 and admit that I was not initially impressed with the performance in comparison to the .22-250 I already owned. What I have found is that the accuracy settled in after a couple hundred rounds. It may have been that I found the right handload for that particular...

Thanks everyone! I now have at least a month worth of research and testing to do on various methods. Samples of materials are inbound.

Thanks Lonestar! Just for clarification, I am not specializing in bullet resistant strucutures, but am looking for an effective alternative to current plate steel usage. If you stumble across a link to that commonly used material that you have seen on TV I would appreciate it. I am...

Not sure what sounds fishy, maybe referencing an above post? Some companies want to protect against bullets hitting equipment they put inside their buildings. The UL spec that we are trying to abide by states that one shot fired in a 12" by 12" area from a distance of 15' needs to be...

Agreed on the tall order. I did state that was the IDEAL scenario, but like most things, you get a tradeoff. The current construction uses wood framed walls just like residential construction. To get much away from that might cause more headaches than just using steel plate. There are...

I will scratch the cream cheese idea then.. Serious bummer there. :neener:

Both great ideas. I had thought of simply filling the wall cavity with sand, but was curious as to what would keep the sand from simply draining out after a shot. I have no experience with shot crete, but will do a search for it. Our typical building is relatively lightweight and easily...

Very nice, but I think a bit bulky and spendy for the application. We are trying to replace 1/2" x4'x10' plate steel with something ideally lighter, less expensive and easier to work with. The fiberglass panels might be the best direction, will check on cost ASAP.

Thanks for the replies, some good stuff here for sure. Tell me more about the stuff made from tires.. Interesting to say the least. Concrete is a very good stopper, but very heavy and would take a lot to get into place. Looks like next week will be one full of research. Thanks again!

I am very new here and this is my first thread started. I work for a very small company that manufactures small buildings. We occasionally have a need to supply bullet resistant structures for various clients. The standard we must adhere to is stopping a 180 grain JSP .30-06 projectile at...

Aw.. Nuts!!! First post on a new forum and I fall victim to the search feature!! Sorry about that. Newbie hat on sitting in the corner..

Ugly? Yep. Plastic? Mostly. Reliable? Absolutely. I don't care for the looks at all, but I do carry one when I can hide a larger pistol. For carry, I trust my Glock as much as my S&W642. Neither is a thing of beauty like a 1911, but beauty is not why they were purchased. Wow, earlier...

For a first post, I had never thought to find myself in any sort of a claiber debate, but I would like to be the first to defend the .17mach 2. (17hm2) I will grant that the 17hmr is great for splattering varmints out to 200 yards, but the 17hm2 gets my nod for the caliber of choice for...
