carrierx +1... These 30/40 degree temp's are driving me into hibernation.

 

[Sobel]

Your posts have given me an idea unless it already exists gift cards for range time!

The O/P did not state my Christmas wish had to be a firearm so what I really want is Peace on Earth and Goodwill to Mankind. The gift I'm most proud of is a $$ donation to the local food bank in my wife's name, her request by the way.

Happy Holidays All

Isn't ammo expensive?

Not cheap. You can find it online for about $20 a box of 20. Because of this, I have not shot mine, an inheritance piece brought back from the PTO.

Graf and J&C both have it for $20ish, Midway and Ammo to go are in the $40 range. Norma still has limited runs of 6.5 Jap, the stuff at J&C is new Hornady runs with more modern bullets.

Milsurp is nearly impossible to find, but I don't go to many gun shows either. You're more likely to find Steyr, Carcano or Swiss in the 6.5mm cartidge. none of which will fire in an Arisaka.


It was brought back by my step dads late father. I'm going to buy a box of ammo for Father's day and shoot it with him. He's been around this gun his entire life, and he's never shot it. I don't think it's been fired in over 60 years. Cosmetically, my type 38 is a bit beat up, but the bore is pristine.

I would have asked for ammo for my cz but the 9x18's aren't that cheap from the local business for 5 boxes i could have an entirely new gun
