Misc Firearms Crew XI: In after... the bans

[Irish Iron]

how do those targets do with a single point hanging location?

I use a single point with mine, just use a plant hanger thing; works just fine. IIRC, he uses a plant hanger wired to a T-post which I'm sure is a helluva lot more stable than my poverty set-up

[Aaron47pb]

Ammo market is definitely slowing down.

[ZombieClive]

the 1000 tulammo 223 starts at $300 w a BIN of $600.
the m22 starts at 80 with a bin of 190
the winchester starts at 100 with a 195 BIN

they dont dance around a ton more than 2 points? i mostly use my plates for 7-20yard handguns from .22 - .357...

[Culking]

I just sold 1,000 Herters (same as Tulammo) 62gr HP for $470 + shipping buy-it-now on Gunbroker.

Seems plenty high to me.

For ~$600 + shipping you can Gunbroker-purchase brass case 5.56, if you are patient and find the right auction. $700 for SURE will buy you brass 5.56. I'm not sure many people will spend $600 for cheap Russian steel case .223

Ya dun goofed. Jeff put up 1k rounds of the Herter's in the GA section of armslist.com for $570 and he sold them that same day.

What would guys sell 1600 rounds of .22LR Federal for?

[RyouBakua]

anyone here with CC ever have to pull?

I've lost count of how many times I've had to pull my CC in the last 4 months. Running out of ammo for it rather quickly too.

you kidding me...

I've read a couple threads in the misc were people drew there weapon.

i have twice ..

que

Story time?
I was very close once, but was able to talk the situation down. I motioned my hand but didnt need to clear leather.

go on




any real world insight. we can speculate all we want but reality is a different story



please share what happened, how it was avoided, and things that could have done better

[Bumpus]

What would guys sell 1600 rounds of .22LR Federal for?

$5 with $5 shipping to me.

[4ea]

thats how i feel pretty much every time i leave my FFL's shop. but, i have a very bad feeling about the 2nd amendment in ca. i think its about to be ended

Are you kidding me? I guess in bizarro world a killer can turn himself in and be forgiven and still have a 'bright future'.

Also, what is this guy smoking? If the dirtbag dies, what is he gonna do? More terrorist attacks? Maybe someone should take him out now.

completely agree man. im not sure what that guy is thinking, but here in america, if you commit acts of terrorism, there really isnt much of a future for you.

and LOL @ the comment, "if you kill them there will be hell to pay"

people who set off bombs in public places, killing innocent people do not deserve rights of any kind. im sure the feds will be real nice to them once they find them...



on a lighter note, heres some gun porn. the two firearms i plan on investing in this weekend. both .44 mag






and the two other pistols i hope to acquire before they get banned
.357 mag


glock 21

[Irish Iron]

can't be positive, I've never tried using both the hanging points. The hanger is pretty close in diameter to the hole in the plate so it really doesn't sway side to side any noticeable amount.

Shot it with both a .30 cal rifle and .40 cal handgun. In the future I'd definitely love to have a set up like Mauser's...looks like so much fun

Homeless guy approached my car while I was smoking a cig at a stoplight. Told him no. He kept approaching saying c'mon man, etc. I was rolling up my window as he reached inside very quickly (other hand in a jacket pocket) - I uncovered and reached for my weapon while screaming, "THATS CLOSE ENOUGH". Startled the sht out of the guy and he backed off in a hurry. Still had my hand on my weapon as he walked off.

I'm not sure if he knew I was drawing or it was just my voice. Either way, situation avoided. Probably just a drunk panhandler but the quickness with which he started to reach towards me and the fact that I couldnt see his other hand made me react violently. Interestingly, I've drilled "STOP RIGHT THERE", "THATS CLOSE ENOUGH" in courses doing shoot/dont shoot drills and that is exactly how I reacted - purely on autopilot. Made me a big believer in the "you revert to your training" mantra. Looking back, I should have raised my voice before I let him cover all that distance.

Bro there is no way that they are going to even try to band wheel and lever guns... or are they?

[hpdcoop]

Anyone think this guy is actually going to be taken alive? I think we all know how this is going to end.

[4ea]

its not revolvers specifically they are after, they are trying to reclassify all pistols as short barrel shotguns, which would make them all illegal. heres a summary of the laws they are trying to push in ca

good training

would be great if he was taken alive for questioning.

but if not, you can rely on the media to create a dozen reasons why he did it

[Bumpus]

With a cop dead and another in serious condition from the earlier shootout, I don't think they are going to give him much wiggle room if he has a weapon or acts aggresively.

I hope they do take him alive, kind of interested to hear why, who they're connected to, etc.

Actually, scratch that it's cheaper to send him on his way then give him a life long stay in prison.

[Poppy83]

My finger tips hurt!


...because I forgot how hot a suppressor gets when blasting 5.56 through it. Holy ****! I spent almost as much time waiting on the can to cool down enough for me to take it off as I did shooting. It was the first time I've run 5.56 through my 30 cal and I was impressed, especially since it was through a 10" barrel.

[emaytee]

Found this pic in the Boston thread? The fuark?

Just getting got up on the day, was at the range all morning. I am surprised nobody made the statement that using the liberal logic, cheese has killed way, way more people than guns.

vvvvvvvvvv

He's got it right. I've had a few of these up for at least 2 years, and have had zero problems. Fence posts range from 4' posts (pistol target holders) to 7' for the farthest away rifle ones (to make them more visible in the tall grass). They (the fence posts)l get hit by flyers and bend or get chunks blown off (srs) I'll post a pic of the most damaged one tomorrow when I go out to the range.

they dont dance around a ton more than 2 points? i mostly use my plates for 7-20yard handguns from .22 - .357...

Depending on size/weight, they'll bounce around when hit by hotter stuff (.357Mag) but settle down before you can get back on target.

can't be positive, I've never tried using both the hanging points. The hanger is pretty close in diameter to the hole in the plate so it really doesn't sway side to side any noticeable amount.

Side to side sway/twisting will be almost non-existent, unless you have a big honking tombstone/circle/etc... set-up for rifles and hit the corner of the target. But once again, by the time you get back on target from recoil, it'll be swaying anterior-posterior because the fencepost/plant hanger limits the side to side twisting.

[Farley1324]

Ya dun goofed. Jeff put up 1k rounds of the Herter's in the GA section of armslist.com for $570 and he sold them that same day.

That's just ridiculous.

Seriously.

What is wrong with people?

I've had 1k rounds of Magtech 5.56 ammo...good milspec type stuff...on Gunbroker for nearly 24 hours now with a BIN of $625 and nobody has even done that yet

I did get $300 for 500 rounds of Wolf though. Buy-it-now same day, and $330 for 600 rounds of Herters.

I just want to make enough money on these I can more easily afford the MK262 and IMI that I ordered for myself

[hpdcoop]

California SB567 - turning pistols into shotguns:

SB 567, as introduced, Jackson
.
Firearms: shotguns.
Existing law, for purposes of specified provisions, defines shotgun
as a weapon designed or redesigned, made or remade, and intended to
be fired from the shoulder and designed or redesigned and made or
remade to use the energy of the explosive in a fixed shotgun shell to
fire through a smooth bore either a number of projectiles (ball shot) or
a single projectile for each pull of the trigger.

This bill would revise the definition of a shotgun to delete the
requirement that it be intended to be fired from the shoulder, and
would clarify that the projectile may be fired through either a rifled bore or a
smooth bore.


This $hit's straight potatoes. P-O-T-A-T-O-E-S

You guys seen the "House to House Searches in MA" thread? Very ominous.

http://forum.bodybuilding.com/showth...3403951&page=1

One poster said this about how they are conducting the searches:

I live here. Heres what they're doing.

1 - knocking on the door, telling you they are coming in.
2- if you refuse they radio to someone outside who then gets on a megaphone, announces your house number to your neighbors, and DEMANDS you let them inside for "security".
3- If you still refuse, they enter without a warrant anyways.
4- If they find ANYTHING during their illegal search, it is evidence against you.

Unconstitutional!

I swear this is being done to set a precedent that this is OK.


People have already reported THEFTS by these people and DAMAGES. One lady was punched in the face by an officer.

[livebrah]

lol

i think my spending on firearms has gone overboard, but seriously man, its all gonna get banned. if i wait, il never be able to own these firearms, and i just cant stand the thought of never being able to own a revolver!!

the rossi is just too cool, i have to buy it.



i googled it, and this is the first thing that came up. i guess its... the law of very loud music?

lol

the roster crap makes it so you cannot buy old model dash numbers from dealers but i would suggest going to a gunshow and looking for 27-2 or 28-2 revolvers, and others

[Poppy83]

I just got my Magtech today, ended up paying $.59/CPR and I'm trying to sell half of it, threw it up on Armlist for $375 and haven't even got one hit. Not making much on it @ $625 are you? I'm just trying to keep some while bringing my cost down, not trying to hold onto $580 worth of ammo...Any other good places to list it? I think I'm gonna try local forums and listed on back page for the hell of it lol

[hpdcoop]

negged this idiot. Yea sure come on in, disregard my rights I'm ok with that.

I realize its not nice to have cops force search your house with no warrant but this is the once a century case where I'm completely fine with it.

It was $575 cash and the guy was practically giddy....told me to call him if I had anything elese to sell lol, will do!

Also met a guy today and sold 1050 rounds of Fed bulk 22LR for for $130....so I basically got 1050 for myself free plus $17 lol.

Thanks Obama!.....no really, thanks bro!

[livebrah]

Livebrah BHP just showed up



Trigger take up, take down, internals, etc are all about 95% true to the real deal. Even the weight is pretty damn close. I'm honestly impressed... now I just have to buy a propane tank and figure out how to load it. Livebrah can you give me instructions (srs)?

i honestly know almost nothing about airsoft stuff but how much did that cost because that seems like a cool idea for practicing

Last sale I had was 2100 rds of Remington Golden Bullets for $180....
