Looks like a solid order @strikeu I don't know...It's a monthly kind of thing. I allot myself a monthly amount. I also bought 2 scopes off 24hr campfire (one is a red dot) and a custom leather holster for FNX-45, but that came earlier in the month. I need to start buying more expensive (better) .308 ammo. I found this forum by searching DPMS Gen II feeding issues. some good info...I think I fixed it today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shooterrex Posted July 19, 2020 Report Share Posted July 19, 2020 On a different note. I ordered a luminox divers watch from Midway USA last Friday. Received the tracking info Saturday. Supposed to be here Friday. Nope it's in Tennessee somewhere. The shipping was free but if I knew this I would have paid for UPS or priority mail. This UPS/mail innovations/post office bullcrap to save a few cents SUCKS. The pony express delivered stuff 2 states away faster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have never owned on but I like their looks. I’m currently rocking a seiko orange monster (3rd one) and an oceanic f11. Somewhere I have an old citizens dive watch but never really liked it as it ate batteries for snacks. Someday I’ll have a tag Helier.

This place is a blast no thread “stay on target” nazis here so most all threads go wondering in the general direction intended....Well maybe some do anyway.... Ok occasionally one does.

Radioactive Posted July 19, 2020 Report Share Posted July 19, 2020 I haven’t ordered anything in a while other than some 375 socom magazine bands -not that they could be mistaken for a 556 or anything. I need to place an order for some more bullets and brass for my 260 rem. Mixed brass is causing some consistency probs I think with the load development and I’m just about out of bullets. Trying to decide if trashing good brass (lapua or Peterson) is how I want to go or just settle on star line and use it for some consistency.

Lonewolf McQuade Posted July 19, 2020 Report Share Posted July 19, 2020 (edited) I've been looking at getting a Luminox, but keep changing my mind which one I "defiantly " want. Just have a couple inexpensive ones for now. A blacked out Casio & a Timex Expedition. Both glow for a while after light exposure, the Timex also has a blue indigo light.

Supposedly get more reloads and I read more consistent ignition - never tried them figured I’d give it a whirl. Prob a bunch of bs but as long as they’ll work I’m game for a change.

shooterrex Posted July 22, 2020 Report Share Posted July 22, 2020 Well this Ruger Wrangler decided it needed to live at my house. Cast frame you can see mold marks in a few spots. Lots of mim parts. Recessed chambers in the cylinder. Decent factory trigger pull. Hard for my old eyes to see the sights but I was ringing steel on a 8" plate at 10 yds. $199.00 plus tax.
