[QUOTE=Inplabth;39083014]Too bad I can't find any anymore after all the panic buying. [editline]3rd January 2013[/editline] Oh wait nevermind SGAmmo is stocked back up.[/QUOTE] Why are people panic buying 7.62×54mmR
My dad picked a heck of a time to sell most of our guns. Lost two Mossberg 500s (.410 and 12ga), one of those silly tactical Mini-14 (which he got $300 for), and a .22 colt target pistol. All we have left is my nugget, a 10/12 that's pitted, and an ancient lever action .22 that hardly works.
[QUOTE=laserguided;39083068]Why are people panic buying 7.62×54mmR[/QUOTE] because everyone else is, and it may be tough to find surplus in the future. Plus it never hurts to have 1400 rounds of 7.62x54r backed up for plinking.
I have 2 rounds of 7.62x54R left, sitting in a bowl on a shelf in our kitchen. 2 ROUNDS

[QUOTE=Zillamaster55;39081360]FPSRussia is a massive retard who shouldn't be allowed to handle firearms. I really hope he truly fucks up one day and realizes how stupid he is.[/QUOTE] He needs a good injury to realize how fucking stupid some of the shit he does really is. Nothing fatal or life destroying, but big enough to knock some sense into him.
[QUOTE=Rastadogg5;39083377]He needs a good injury to realize how fucking stupid some of the shit he does really is.

But a hefty conk on the noggin with a wad of dirt would probably tell him "stop being dumb"
Watching the CSpan coverage of the House voting on HR 308 (the "assault clips" measure) and it's just disgusting how every Republican votes nay, and every Democrat votes yea. Our fucking Congress is slaved to their party lines and nobody listens to the voice of reason. When a controversial measure comes up, even one as stupid as banning high-cap mags, it should not be "all dems vote yes, all reps vote no." It's wrong. Everyone who knows the facts knows that a magazine ban is dumb, but nah, gotta vote in line with my political party!
HR 308 Status: Died (Referred to Committee)
Just got back from the range, and aside from shooting a .22 for an hour just to make the $40 entry worth it I got to fire the 2 guns I'm most thinking of getting, as well as a 12" Norinco Coachgun. Firing both that thing's barrels hurt less than a single 3" buckshot from the 870, but as for the other guns, a 4.2" S&W 686 and a 9mm Sig P226, I brought the targets home to compare accuracy. They only let us shoot .38 from the revolver, though, and I think my grip could have been better on it and I was shooting it a little fast, and that caused me to pull right with it, the Sig however, like most semi-autos, I was relatively all-over the place, but in a much tighter group than the Walther I've shot, about 1.5" rather than 3", with shots actually hitting inside the group rather than making the outline of a circle. When trying to rapid-fire, I was much more accurate with the Sig than the Smith, but then again you don't often rapid-fire a revolver. It was great that they had the exact 2 guns I wanted to try out there this time, they've been running out of range guns because they keep breaking, but now this leaves me with a decision to make. What about you guys, would you go Sig (informative) or S&W (artistic), assuming also that access to semi-autos for frequent range visits through people I know is at a 6:1 ratio versus revolvers? Also if you're wondering why it's a 4.2" and not a 4" revolver, it's because 4" is 102mm, and the minimum barrel length for a handgun in Canada is 106mm, meaning that we have to have S&W custom make a slightly longer barrel just for us because apparently those extra 4mm make a world of difference in public safety (my ass they do, they did that to try and ban/jack up prices on the most commonly available handguns by making them either inaccessible or requiring a custom barrel to be made, jacking up factory costs). [editline]3rd January 2013[/editline] Also, great news for freedom and gun rights in Canada, a man who defended his home against fire bombers with a gun and was charged with unsafe storage for having ammo in his nightstand while his gun was locked up was found not guilty. If you want more information on this atrocious case that was meant only to harass gun owners to discourage them from defending themselves when their lives are in danger, look up the case of Ian Thompson of Ontario.
686, because it's sexy as hell
To be honest, if it will get liberals off our backs, we should let them ban true Hi Cap Mags, Over 30 rounds. Cause lets be honest real high cap mags are expensive and finicky at best.
I vote Sig, but thats just cause I'm a sig slut
While we're at it, we should also ban adhesives and things that make other things stick together. They can reload scary fast when they only have to flip the magazine over.

I'll give it to February. That's when everyone in Congress won't even remember where Sandy Hook was.

Cokeman at least knows safety and practices it to extreme limits. He isn't naturally stupid about it.

[QUOTE=G12-A5;39081882]To be fair in your countries your minimum wage is A LOT higher. Here in America our minimum wage is around 7.25 an Hr. In Aus I know its about $16 an hr and in Nor They have no minimum but make the highest average salary out of ALL of the UN around 75k USD. Where as the average wage of an American is only about 44k USD which is only around 30k Euro or 285,519Kr. This is why I feel no sympathy to Australians who cry about having to pay $100 per game on digital download (steam); when you are making more than DOUBLE our minimum wage.[/QUOTE] It has nothing to do with the minimum wage
So I headed out to Kenosha to pick up the gun barrel from this guy on armslist, and I was like an hour early. So we decided to stop by this antique mall for a bit. Boy I was glad I brought 200$ on me just in case. [t]http://i.cubeupload.com/t60gt6.jpg[/t] (one on the left) Guy even gave me free 8x50r rounds for it, even though its been rechambered to 8x56r. The barrel was a lot better than I thought, came with a green fiber optic bead and the finish matched the receiver perfectly, also my tube extension comes in tomorrow so I can complete my 870.
