My new redneck toy. *CAUTION* Not liberal friendly

[crust]

Just got to pick this up today. I just about had to sell myself into slavery to get this. But only because it was an awesome deal, less than half going market.

cool

NICE! That's a beautiful little rifle! Considering the current admin. in office, I would say you made a fantastic choice in a long arm, It was based on the legendary M-14 design, and It's tough as nails, accurate, and fun to shoot. That rifle is on the hit list and will only gain value in the future. I have a few of those little rifles, mini and ranch in .223. I can't begin to tell you how many thousands of rounds I have put through mine over the years. (I'm a HUGE Ruger fan!) A while ago, I fell back to an M-4 to do mayhem on the coy dog population. It was like meeting an old friend and picking up where you left off. I don't shoot much since I moved into a highly unfriendly state, so all but 2 weapons are oiled and packed away. I keep my M-4 in reach, and never leave the driveway without a CCW, a Kimber Pro Raptor II, And I train regularly on them both.

(shameless pimping)

Very nice !! All the local gun shops are all but sold out on semi auto pistols, I have been looking for a few months now for a Sprindfield Arm XD 45 and have been told 6 to 18 months wait The NRA declared Obama " Gun Salesman of the Year "

Hole, you need to look on gunbroker.com. you buy the gun and have it shipped to a licensed dealer. You can save a little that way. Or, if you are looking for the newest check out Galleryofguns.com use the "gun genie".

Thanks Crust, I'll check those out next week!

 

[coldwater]

I have THOUSANDS of rounds for my regular shooters. I reload, and usually have a good 5,000 rounds of .223 / .45 stored in ammo cans, on hand at all times.

Damn...


Hey CJ, just wait till X sees this one!

 

[Old Dog]

Hey CW I agree reloading is the only way to go, I couldn't afford the Jeep and the Guns if I didn't load my own. (and work on my own Jeep).
It's hell to be addicted to more than one thing.

 

[Devonn]

Sweet! Good job grabbing such a good price, and seems to be in great condition. And have to agree with basically everything Old Dog just said!

 

[mylittlecj5]

Dang! I can't even afford my JEEP addiction, much less try and get into something likely more expensive like artillery...I need a new job...

 

[coldwater]

No kidding....you better stay the hell away from diving too! I must have 10 k in dive gear as well. Why is it that EVERYTHING fun is !!!!!!$$$$$!!!

What reload equipment do you use ?

I have a Rock Chucker single stage press and tools, I bought the "piggyback" conversion for it to make it a "progressive" press, but, am able to make plenty of "xtra" ammo with the single stage for now !

 

[coldwater]

A Dillon RL 550 B. I can grab a beer, sit down in front of it, and drop 500 rounds an hour of match quality .45 ACP. Change the tool head and shell plate in less than a minute, and be dropping another caliber just that quick.

 

[Old Dog]

X2 on the dillion its the only way to go. I've had mine for 20? years and its still going strong.

 

[coldwater]

Bought mine in 1982. I must have thrown close to 1,000,000 rounds through that machine, and It still works flawlessly. Everything I have is Dillon blue! From the press, dies, flip trays, vib cleaner, scales, EVERYTHING.

 

[crust]

Yea I need to get into reloading with the price of ammo. I can go pick up 1,000s of casings at the local shooting spots. Right now I only have the mini and a Taurus Pt111 9mm. But am skipping any more tattoos to stock up on arms.

 

[coldwater]

If you're gonna be a shooter, reloading is the only real way you will be able to afford it, and be assured you will have a steady flow of ammo. Aside from the thousands of rounds I have loaded, I probably have enough supply on hand to throw another 10,000 rounds, mostly .45 and .223. But several other custom one off rounds and heavy rifle cals. as well. I hit the gun shows and snoop around the interweb for deals, and buy what's cheap. And I'm still waiting for a post test accuracy and function report for that mini!
