We gonna be getting some Dane Armory Nambus in 9x19mm?

There's a reason Tom likes Dodge! <laughs> <lmao>

I'm just looking at those run-flat tires, airless tires…whatever the hell they are. Which are now on sale to the public. For people that have ATVs. I like the Razrs! The girl wants one too...

Had a student that worked for BAE…his job was to load ammo all day and shoot at armor.

>:D <lmao> :banana: I'm planning on being there hawking gift certificates…might be able to break even.

Worked there a few years, been teaching there maybe 7 years. Whatever you do…do NOT go in there Black Friday! Don't do it! I'm not at liberty to discuss what MAY or may not be stockpiled in back areas. I'm also NOT at liberty to give an opinion such as "10% No-Tax sale PALES in comparison to the deals coming out Black Friday!", so I won't say anything. Just stay away!

I have this sunshade I bought with my MKIII Tactical…WAY back when Leupold first came out with that line of scopes, back in '96 or so. Thought I'd sell it but see there is mention of "post-2004" and "pre-2004" on their current sunshade offerings. I do not see this particular sunshade for sale.

Any good, modern rifle, pistol, or shotgun should be welcome!

That means Tom should be doing a write up any day now. <laughs>

How "hot" does an Eotech have to get before it's unreliable? Down in our pit in summer it gets to 130* or so, with one on a 5.56 and another on a .308, with no issues so far. Getting them hot enough you can't put bare hands on the forearms.

And no neckginas either!

My Mom's uncle was killed at the BoB, in Patton's army. This Gundy…and those like him…are national treasures!

Yes! You will also see a type of tri-crimp on other military ammo, three little distortions holding the primer inside.

Yup…very glad! That's a hell shite storm that hit.

I don't screw with the flash hole or primer pockets…unless there is a military crimp. More often than not I can fanagle a primer into crimped primer pocket. Those I can't get a quick spin of a hole-deburring/chamfering tool, then get a primer in there. Have you noticed how vaired the flash holes are from brass maker to brass maker?

I'd like to see that updated to present costs. I don't believe the "cost per round" analysis, even with the dates used (well…maybe the 12gauge). Once you start getting up into the thousands of rounds, the cost savings is exponential. Montana Gold 124gr 9mm FMJ 3,750 count, $365/ea. Winchester 231 powder 8# bottle, $144 CCI #500 small pistol primers 5K, $130/ea Same used brass as that guy above. Using a healthy load of 4.1gr of W231…would give us enough powder for 13,658 theoretical perfect loads. Let's drop that down to 13,000 to account for powder spillage. That makes the powder the most bountiful in our pricing, so we have to purchase more primers and bullets. To have enough for ALL the powder, we would need four packages of the 3,750 bullets and three packages of the primers, bringing their total numbers up to 15K each. Bullets-$1,460 Primers-$390 Powder-Still $144 Brass-used Total- $1994 $1,994 to load 13,000 rounds of 9x19mm (with 2,000 primers and bullets left over…more on this later). The highly hearlded Winchester White Box is $156/500 rounds at Midway USA (average pricing, remember?), CCI Blazer Brass is $250/1,000 rounds. So the WWB would cost $4,056 and the CCI BB would cost $3,250 for an equivalent 13K rounds of ammo…with nothing left over but the same used brass. That's $0.25/round for the CCI BB and $0.312/round for the WWB. Our loads are at $0.153/round are a 38% savings over the CCI and a 47% savings over the WWB. With bullets and primers left over…we need more powder. SHAZAAM!!! The sickness begins!! But wait! That's not all!! Let's cut the cost of our projectiles in HALF by using hard cast lead! So our $1,994 investment becomes $1,264 when using lead bullets. That gets our cost down to $0.097/round. Just call it a dime a bullet. So the cheap CCI BB is 250% higher than our reload and the highly regarded WWB is 312% more expensive. And that's for the least expensive centerfire handgun round on the market. Ask MikedaddyH how much he saves loading his 10mm rounds. Those factory loads are EXPENSIVE!! And I'm pretty sure you won't find factory 10mm loads like Mike is loading (probably cause a charging elephant to do a back-flip, while grasping its chest in a final trumpet of death). I know loading for .25-20 I'm saving thousands of percent. Factory boxes of 50 are now almost $70. Even with premium bullets, I can get that down to $0.25/round…same price for a box of factory reloaded 9mm Luger. With .25-20, the reloader can go from "heavy" .22 Long Rifle ballistics up to .223 Remington and anywhere in between those two. One dude on another forum loads special longrange .30-30, with video posted of him shooting 2 liter bottles at 600 yards. Reloading is far beyond awesomeness!

And another AZ welcome!

This was late 1970s…lot different back then.

Yeah…the store he bought it in is offering him close to his asking price. He's all like...

My brother and several of his friends were out shooting class 3 with one of their dads in the desert. Game & Fish officer came in hot and heavy, pistol out, demanding everyone disarm. Certain agencies here are WAY heavy handed.

Nice! When you coming out to the range? We have it this Tues, Thurs, and next weekend.

2-point, all of them that are slinged. That Vtac is the shizzle!!

Tom DOESN'T need this…he has enough ATV toys and enough military style toys. Definately does NOT need the two combined. http://www.polarisatvforums.com/forums/polaris-atv-news/49071-polaris-introduces-military-grade-consumer-work-vehicle.html Wait…he sure as hell does need one!!

You need VERY little lube inside the necks. I use both the RCBS and Lee case lubes, both work fine with no powder issues or misfires…or sticky resizing. Using a lube pad, I place ONE drop of the lube on the pad and then spread it out with my finger tip. This is sufficient to do scores, if not hundreds of cases. Applying just enough pressure to roll the case on the pad, then pick it up and place the mouth of the case against the pad and twist, with a little bit of downward pressure. While I've on occasion wiped a case down with a paper towel because it felt too lubed, I haven't gone to the extremes some others have…like retumbling brass to get the extra lube off. With a sufficiently minimal amount of lube on each case, what little there is gets spread super thin(ner) on the expander ball and the rest of the neck. It doesn't seem to leave any more lube than tumbling leaves on brass polish.

It was a trigger attachment that manipulated the trigger faster than you can: http://triggeractivator.com/hellfireINS.htm The bottom of that link even has the "ATF approved" stamp. This company used to sell them. Says "Out of stock-not made right now." Their decision making on trigger attachments is as arbitrary as their importation "rules" for military rifles/pistols.
