  1. That just makes them an easy adversary. <thumbsup>
  2. There's a WHOLE BUNCH of stuff in there that's just AWESOME! I'm not down for running the Beer Mile (not these days), but that's a hard MFer, right there. :hail: Part of my old 12-mile roadmarch methodology included two King Sized Snickers, two Budweisers, Midol, and Motrin. I $hit you not, Midol was in there. <lmao> The next day, I NEVER hurt. NEVER.
  3. For that angry, furry bastard in the vid. I'd take a hit from that horned devil once. He's be on my grill after that.
  4. You guys are gonna get me started, ain't ya... :rant2: I need to start searching for old pics. I still HAVE all my quads, but some of my old pics are pretty damn epic... :evil5:

    Annealing

    Very good point - This is the whole reason I've only been using Lake City 5.56 for my 300BLK conversions. The annealing on the Lake City stuff goes pretty deep on the case, and - at least in my mind - I'm re-shouldering a part of the case (as a 300BLK) that was heavily annealed before it was shot last time, as a 5.56 round. My reasoning may be off, based on making a new shoulder in the new cartridge, but I'm pretty sure I'm better off using that for the BLK conversions that using new 5.56 brass from any manufacturer, or once fired .223 Rem. <dontknow>
  6. PTRs are good rifles - nice copies of the G3 design, roller lock and all. I don't have one, but I've always wanted one. Done a ton of research on them, with not much bad out there. Everything I've been able to dig up about them comes down to good reliability. Many, many moons ago, around 1986, I was a member of the Fort Ord Gun Club. Back in those days, you could pull a HK-91 from the Gun Club for around $600. I didn't get one - I was a Private, and that was a whole month of pay! Couple years later, I'm back at Fort Ord, in '89. Go back out to the Gun Club, sign back up - damn! The price is up to $1,200 for the HK-91! WTF?! Couple years later, you couldn't find them... One day I'll have that PTR. CDNN's prices are good for them, too.
  7. You talking about the PTR rifles, brother?
  8. Since you gave us a choice - I had to think about it. For some reason, the badass quadcopter with a GoPro on it sounds like a hell of alot of fun!!! I can already tell you the GoPro Hero 3+ cam is a SWEET little cam!!!
  9. I agree.
  10. I have my grandfather's Mossberg 500, a single-shot bolt action .22LR rifle, and a Sears & Roebuck "Ranger" break action double barrel side-by-side shotgun. <thumbsup>
  11. Shibi, brother - WATCH OUT for this guy when you're out on the MTB, man!
  12. That's pretty damn cool. Welcome aboard, from AZ, man. <thumbsup>

    well....

    Very nice execution of the 1911. Fantastic acquisition, man. <thumbsup>
  14. He FINALLY got the Elite Iron for that MRAD? 'Bout damn time already. Good job, Ron. <thumbsup> Pics of the bipod on the bolt gun, dude. Why you holdin' out? <dontknow>
  15. Same thing happened last year - in a school. Less than a month after Sandy Hook, a kid went into a high school in Taft, CA, with a shotgun. Not many injuries. That fell out of the news quickly. How many here forgot about that one already?
  16. VTAC padded sling - very good sling. Hate to see this go. Someone will be lucky - that's a damn good price.

    AA2495

    I've got 3 pounds of it, and 2 more pounds of 2520, primarily for heavy 5.56 loads. Haven't started loading with it and testing yet, through. As soon as I start working something up, I'll get the info in this thread. <thumbsup>
  18. Love that FDE, and the little bit of green - makes the landscape in the background look pretty good. <lmao> I WILL convert Ron to FDE one day. He will ultimately realize that it is the perfect color. :banana:
  19. The same was true for almost everything. Hell, brother - this time last year, and throughout most of last year, the only thing that was available was 20ga, 30-06, 7mm Magnum. Thank god I have a 30-06. Twinkle Toes (Porter, my stepson) just got a 20ga Mossberg 500 for his 18th birthday last week, just because of that.
  20. JT, I've got a KX3 on a 7.5" barreled 5.56 pistol - I'll check what buffer I have in there, but I'm pretty sure it's just a standard buffer. Shoots fine.
  21. I'm completely surprised that this is just hitting the news TODAY. B of A has been doing this for years. The screwed McMillan, then screwed American Spirit Arms. B of A took what Holder said seriously - and it was pitched in 2011.
  22. Ever since Alan Mossberg stepped down and Iver Mossberg took over, they've been coming out with much more for the "modern" public. I'm a big Mossberg fan - many of them in my collection. My MVP is one of my favorite rifles, by far. <thumbsup>
  23. Good progress - and damn nice rifles!!! You gotta get some pics of that M1A up here, man!
  24. Glad everyone here is okay. I think? Still wondering about the ones that haven't checked in yet...
  25. Drew, Lesson 65b, man! You better not miss this one! You were just asking this combination, brother!
