So the answer is, take it out and shoot it.

Just tell him you saw the ads and would have beaten the prices he got online.

Their estates do. :-)

This may be a dumb question, but i cant fund any 7.62/54r ammo local.. i know i can buy inline but shipping is killer, and i dont have the extra $110 to buy a surp box now..,Is there any other size ammo I can use, even f it means manually loading the chamber.. Such as 7.62/39 or 308 7.62/51?? Just ...

This question depends on how fast you expect to go through the ammo and how long you expect the problem to last. 1000 rounds per rifle is a rule of thumb you'll find on the Internet, usually with caveats for handguns, .22LR, and shotgun. The recent ammo shortage is causing lots of people to rethink ...

I don't think it's panic buying anymore. It's become plain that any gun restrictive legislation other than perhaps extended capacity magazines will face an uphill battle and more than likely fall on it's face. I don't think this is correct and that is why the panic may appear irrational. We have go...

What we are seeing now is not crazy, but a completely rational response to the political environment. Lot's of folks have suddenly realized that they either may not be able to get what they want in the future, or will be able to get it with much more bureaucratic difficulty, so they have accelerated...

:big shock: My son and DIL live in Santa Monica, beautiful place but VERY strange :geek: :ugeek: :chuckles: Place at times I just saw on the AM news that CA was considering a ban on frozen Pizzas because they MIGHT lead to mental health issues!!!!! Freekin PIZZA? You have got to be shitting me.... ...

Dewey Rods come in lengths at least to 36", which is fits a 91/30 from the breech end. Just remove the bolt and the rod goes right through.

Oh well I can't blame anyone, everyone else is just doing what I want to do, they are just quicker on the draw :lol: I think you're the first one I've seen that has a healthy attitude about the situation, as opposed to all the whiners looking to blame "hoarders" (the guys who bought early...

The buying panic for ammo is not irrational. While the likelihood of federal restrictions on ammo seem remote, the likelihood of background checks to buy ammo, amount restrictions, restrictions on Internet sales, etc. In anti states is there. NY has some nonsense in their new law. What if CA follows...

For those trying to understand the dynamic here, it is best understood through "The Beer Game" which is a game that simulates a supply chain. I first learned of it in a book titled "The Fifth Discipline" by Sengi.

The Russians stored this stuff for decades right in the spam cans it comes in. It's pretty durable though I would not recommend using it for firewood. If you can keep it cool and dry that's best.

I'm liking the racks I've been seeing here cool setups & great for more ideas!! :vcool: This is a the 'rack' I recently put together to store & lock up a few. It's a used jobox that I picked up & adapted. http://i401.photobucket.com/albums/pp98/gwillyh/Mosin/photo4_zpsbc69a465.jpg That ...

I wish I had done that. You've outperformed. 99 percent of all investment managers over that period. Care to share any current tips? :-)

I confess to knowing nothing about the pros and cons of a C and R or how to get one. Can someone direct me to beginning information either on or off the forum?

Thanks in advance.

Does anyone sell full crates at this time? Also, what does one of these weight when full?

There is a little trickle down effect going on with the current panic. First folks want the stuff they suspect will be banned. Then they want stuff that won't be banned so they have something they can actually use. Then they want whatever they can get because everything else is sold out. Then they w...

putting an expensive accessory on an inexpensive rifle does cause one to stop and consider. except on sks boards, those guys spend $250-$300 in plastic parts and optics which summed up is a $250 gun plus $300 worth of crap equals $550 and the ultimate value after mods is $100 :chuckles: :chuckles: ...
