aw...but those are my favorite threads. always good for a laugh.


how about these:
- guns are only good for killing people
- the NRA only cares about ARs
- the NRA only cares about hunting rifles
- two is one, one is none
- IBTL
- obama has done nothing but help gun owners (read that one twice this week)

frankly, i can't believe it took until the third page for someone to mention the sound of a pumping shotgun making the intruder urinate his pants and run. you guys must be slipping.

The last world champ in ISSF 300m shot a 599 (out of 600) as did the next 6 competitors. The 10 ring which he hit 59 times, is equivalent to 1/3 inch groups (100 mm diameter at 300m). Almost all the competitors could put up 10-11 1/2" groups in a row. The top ones did 12 in a row in the competition.

Most small bore competitors at above the college level could match this although that's just with .22LR.
 
Polymer is just a fancy word for plastic. And 4140 steel is a fancy word for pot metal.

"Plastic" guns will blow up in your hands.

Your AK/Mini 14 is garbage because it will not shoot .5 MOA, and therefore will not kill a coyote at 100 yards.
 
It's a good deal I'm taking a loss on it. I paid $2500 for this AR, and I need the money so I'll sell it for what I paid since I have 2, it's a Bushmaster and everyone knows their the same ones they use in Iraq. But that's without the optics.
This is the same type they used over there in Afganistan to shoot that terrorist from 2 miles away.
 
The breaking in the barrel thing is silly, I've heard about people breaking in a barrel but what does it do? My savage I've shot it without doing anything special and it can still make one hole groups at 100yards with .32ACP
 
"Reloading will eliminate any concerns about ammo availability". It will if you stock a ton of components before a shortage. But then again, you can also stock a ton of loaded ammo before a shortage. Nothing about reloading directly impacts your ability to have common calibers during a shortage. Stockpiling does. If you are trying to buy components or equipment during a shortage you are just as screwed as if you are trying to buy loaded ammo. Ask me how I know.

I can either stockpile the 20 or so calibers I shoot, or I can stockpile 4 types of primers and about 6 types of powders. Brass is free at the range, bullets can be cast, but are usually plentiful and inexpensive. I could go to a gunshow in the middle of the worst of the ammo shortage and find 100rds of most pistol caliber bullets for under $8. Really the only thing that needs to be stockpiled is primers, because even powder could be readily found, albeit at elevated prices.

If you are not saving money by reloading and shooting more during shortages, you are doing it wrong.
 
Not BS but does get alot of useless usage.


Who makes the best ________?


or...........

I want this, this, this and that..... with a little of this too, it has to be top quality but I dont want to spend a fortune on it...any suggestions keeping it under $______.
 
"The AK is the most rugged battle rifle today."

And which is?

There are quite a few mujahadeen in Afghanistan that would disagree with you.

I'm trying to chose between two civilian third world battle rifles designed 50 years ago for a tactical use SHTF weapon, which one?
Click to expand...

3rd world battle rifle? Off the top of my head I can't think of a single battle rifle that was designed and initially produced in a non-industrialized country.

And just because something is 50 years old doesn't mean it is effective. 1911, 30-06, AK-47, B-52s, the internal combustion engine, light bulbs, etc.

Claiming BS on some of the things in this thread is the biggest load of internet BS I have seen in a while.
 
All this color crap. I was in condition yellow and when i saw him wink at me i went to condition orange and prepared to go to condition purple. All a bunch or rambo wannabe's.

All of these guys http://internationalbenchrest.com/re...core/index.php

Me too, if I shoot 1 round every 4 hours or so.

With all due respect, I dont think the people that hold benchrest records come into the average forum boasting of their shooting ability.

It's the guys with the fuzzy picture of a rifle on a bed spread with a cherry picked group that's shot on a piece of cardboard 4 inches away from any bull claiming that their ______ rifle shoots 1/4 moa right out of the box and goes on the he can do it all day long if he does his part. :D
 
Agreed,

The BS here is all of the people who claim it can't be done, mainly because their expensive rifles and overinflated shooting abilities can't do it. It obviously can be done, by lots of people with many different rifles and rounds. There are plenty of custom built rifles out there that will consistently shoot under .5 MOA if the shooter is up to the task. Therefore the claim itself is not internet BS.

I highly doubt claims that an out-of-the-box factory rifle will shoot that accurately, but stranger things have happened. I have also met people with crummy cameras that take pictures of their guns on their bed because they live in a small apartment that can shoot fleas off a gnats ass.

It took me six months to get dies, bullets, and primers for a reasonable price a year ago to start loading 9mm. Actually I ended up paying double retail for the primers because it was the last thing I was missing, and it was still going to be cheaper than buying the loaded ammo when you could find it.

I wasn't "readily finding" anything at all other than the brass I already had.
 
"Here's a video of some Canadian snipers hitting the bad guys at over 1000 yards with Barrett .50 BMG rifles"

(Actually, footage hijacked from a commercial hunting video showing some guys shooting rock chucks out in Idaho)


Surfaces on one gun board or another every 2 or 3 months, I get in an email every so often for at least 3 years now.
