Zahn: My next trip to that club is the usual !:20 drive each way. I belong to two clubs, because the huge club only 11 minutes away (from here) Has Absolutely No Gongs For 'Real' Rifles--unless rifles literally are in "handgun chamberings " ! 🤬 They hate to have a weld broken, so Zero Gongs...

The true accuracy of my Springfield Standard? I don't know and quite frankly I don't careo_O. If I hit the bottom of the large plastic jug from 100 yards it sometimes jumps 15'-20'. This is what's fun. Being tethered by very long cords to a stick, it can not escape. But a recent spotter at a...

OP: good luck. My long gun (a FAL) being shipped from a private seller in Arizona literally "disappeared" for about 12 days. Note that it was the Lowest-priority shipping. Staff at my Post Office told me that sometimes the Lowest "untouchables" (ie the lowest caste in India) can take 3-4...

No sales tax (outside Texas) + Free shipping. Ordered the .308 ammo today. Saltech, made in Switzerland🇨🇭, Brass-cased, Boxer-primed.;) :)Not "outsourced". and I've been shooting this brand for a while in my imported FALs. Today's 'high' ammo prices are Pre-panic : not If, but When is the...

My hand-written list is to state approx. Current market values. My son is the only nearby family member besides my wife. 1) He’s had little interest in shooting, has never owned a gun. 2) Has never owned a safe; he has two young sons and he will never keep a gun in his house, at least until...

Tell wives, as I told mine years ago, that we can Sell guns for at least 60% of what we paid. How about Shoes? It gets "kinda" silent when "reselling shoes " is mentioned. A different time I reminded her "I've never been to casinos ("etc" ;) ), and never wanted to buy a boat or an airplane"...

Some sellers are probably motivated to “show off”, as some appear to do at gun shows. “My toy is better than yours”, as my little grandsons say. English guys call it a “Willy Wagging” attitude.

Purely the largest “caliber “, or chambering? Many beginners forget that .308/7.62 can be 7.62x51, x 61? (30-06), 7.62x54r etc. Maybe this is the situation with .375, .41…? It certainly is with 300 Win—-

West TN gets just as hot as south TX on some days in July and August, although humidity here can drop to 45/50 percent during a mini heatwave. The hindrance for many of us is that even when outside and in the Shade, Wet Eyebrows ( still ) constantly Soak shooting glasses.

CapnMac: that’s good you are used to the summer weather in Texas. As for centerfire (or did you mean Rimfire?) rifles at Indoor ranges, the noise is terrible with .223, 7.62x39 and larger. as you probably know quite well.

My barrel is 3" shorter than the typical barrel in this image, because 'they tell me that' around 2003 nice Austrian Stg kits were only $150 (!), and plenty of barrels were shortened. Mine is an Austrian StG (kit) on Imbel; tried out today for a second time using just 30 rds. It was assembled...

Dave: I forgot to read where you live.

DaveDeLaurent: Maybe you have a standard-length FAL with a 21” barrel , so that the long “tall”Mauser won’t ‘feel’ so awkward and lonely…?

If I watched news all day long I would be tempted to carry more often. But I don't watch much, because constant bad news is depressing and repeated by the MSM to keep ratings high. The constant echo chamber of bad news, among the repetition all over the Internet, helps people selling even chest...

Mine is .308. You guys' much more powerful rifles remended me of this. A Norwegian girl and her father had to mostly give up shooting .458 WinMag due to ammo costs in Norway. At about 2:41 she says "...we can't afford it". Turn up the Volume if you want to hear Katrina: fresh water is in the...
