I bid on an item once. Won it.
As soon as the auction ended I got messaged by the seller that the item had been listed for the wrong price so they weren’t going to complete the sale.
I looked into this behavior and found that it is pretty common on GB with no real recourse other than...
Woodworking
leatherworking
metalworking and fabrication
auto restoration and repair
furniture upholstery
nylon and spectra webbing projects
chainsaw rebuild and repair
other 2 stroke power equipment rebuild and repair
meat grinding and processing
All those things take precedence to reloading
I would also pass And have done so in quite a few similar instances.
I nearly always only buy from the labeled FFLs on GB and even then only with decent feedback history.
I would use the current 280 as my “mountain rifle”.
There is wisdom is using what you already have….even if it goes against the conventional wisdom of this board which goes something like “there’s no such thing as too many guns” or “just get them both”.
Though I accept the reality you are laying out here for us and I agree that there is and has been a general lack of availability of ammo since 2008, the fact is, I never had to experience a line like that to buy ammo.
That is because I bought my ammo during times when it was available and in...
For some reason, no one wants to admit to or then implement a strategy to combat “people problems”.
I see it at my work. I see it in personal social situations. I see it in law. I see it in government.
So many people problems are trying to be solved by manipulating or implementing new...
I had always lusted after a SS MK II slab side. I could never find one in over 10 years of looking for a price I wanted to pay.
When I seriously, went looking for a MK series pistol, the MK IV had recently been released. I’m not a brand new gun kind of guy so I figured that one was out of the...
I’m a meat and potatoes kind of guy.
Glocks just work for me. Literally and philosophically.
I too want to ask what features everyone is looking for. Gen 3 Glocks are perfect for me and I really can’t think of anything I want that would have trade offs elsewhere.
I have or have owned models...
I pick Decelerators most of the time and have only used a KickEze when I needed longer LOP as the KickEze comes in longer sizes than the Decelerators. I am pretty recoil tolerant so the extra padding the KickEze offers has never been pertinent to my needs.
As @LoonWulf says above the KickEze...
It’s just a fun thing to compare them to.
Lever guns neither won the west nor were the most common firearm on the western frontier. Their historical context has been as romanticized as piracy in the Caribbean.
They are just a fun action type with historical significance.
I tend to think reading and maybe even responding to the comments section of their content is quite enough firearms social media for the average gun toober
True experts tend to get annoyed when a bunch of rank amateurs like us start spouting opinions on things it is obvious we have no experience with.
It happens in online forums of all subjects and in everyday encounters.
I personally, don’t like talking about any of the skills and knowledge I...
