GUNS!!!!!!!!

[blackalps]

Have a couple CZ’s and an HK. Want an AR and an AK. And a semi auto shotgun. Ammo and gun prices be crazy tho.

The safety on the DD is a bit notchey, .

Pull the safety and see that the detent is installed in the correct orientation. I have two ddm4s where the safety was installed wrong,
that was the easy fix. 10 minutes tops. No parts no cost, and now very smooth.

I picked up another Gen 2 in mint condition. It came with two extra, and very rare mags I offloaded for $450. So I’m into it a $700 gun, box, and full paperwork for $250. Now if only I had something I could shoot.

Zastava ZPap or a Fox for an AK. If you have the coin get an Arsenal. I know there's a lot of 'the sky is falling' theories out there right now, but I would put money on a stop to imported 'assault weapons' at a minimum pretty soon.

A Staccato P followed me home last night. I'm not sure why I waited so long to get one of these. I think a Bul Viper is next.

Nice, got a STI Marauder a few months ago and love it.

I bought a couple AR’s a few years ago. One in the .308 flavor and a 5.56. The .308 I went cheap and bought a Remington R25 (DPMS Panther), it was still around $1500 but cheap for the genre. The 5.56 I bought the DD carbine, spent the $1500 for the complete gun.

The Remington eats whatever cheap stuff I buy to target shoot, steel and all. Had a bunch of german brass that was corroded here and there and that thing spits out every round. The Daniel Defense is a bit more finicky, it won’t cycle steel and has actually jammed on me a time or two.

The safety on the DD is a bit notchey, the Remington is butter smooth. I’m sure the DD could be a lot better with a visit to a good smith, but in my anecdotal experience the cheaper gun runs better.

YMMV

PS. If you’d like to shoot either of them let me know.

I can clean that DD up for you no problem.

Still a big fan of the 2011 platform.

Wanted a deer rifle for here in Ohio. Ruger American in 450 bushmaster. Threw a leopuld 3-9x40 scope on top. Got 2 more days for gun, fingers crossed. Q

Those straight-cartridge regulations still confuse the hell out of me, but that's a great rifle.

[highangle]

A .458 Lott would be a little heavy...And quite a bit more expensive to shoot.

Wouldn't that blow up a whitetail? I'm not familiar with that cartridge but it sounds "not fucking around" to me.

While it does carry some power and is a heavier bullet, it doesn't have the velocity of some more common, out west rounds like 7mm, 308, ect. Very similar to a 45-70 which is another super common round out here. My buddy got a buck with his this year, and while it blew the heart into oblivion, the exit wound wasn't that extreme.

Ruger Precision in 6mm Creedmoor w/ Leupold MK5HD w/ Tremor3 reticle, SIG SRD762TI can...

Dirty. I've really been digging bolt and lever guns lately. That Ruger 450 looks sweet. I don't know much about straight walls but have been looking at Henry levers in .44 or .357. And case hardened steel looks cool.

I bought my self a 1920's Marlin Model 93 in 30-30. Its truly a beautiful rifle.

Straight cases are harder to reload. You can trap so much air with a large diameter bullet, there's a risk of bulging or bending while seating bullets if the case neck isn't chamfered just right.

Most also headspace off the extractor like a pistol, since there's no shoulder, so case oal is real important.

A .375 Ruger is a way more powerful cartridge, and it leaves plenty meat on a blacktail.

A good friend of mine who knows nothing about guns was just given a 1902 Winchester 1890 by her uncle, thing is a beaut, can’t wait to show her the ropes and get to handle it.

Very nice. Confirm the chambering, it can be a .22 Long which is different than .22 LR. While you can shoot LR in a 22 long chamber, accuracy may suck because of twist.

Unfortunately, that is a necked cartridge and illegal to use in much midwest states here.

Yeah. Hunters used to shoot each other a lot more than we do now, in an age of mandatory hunter education.
Then they figured out that limiting hunter effectiveness was a way to allow the same number of hunters, with less harvest. Then it just got to be tradition....



I've only used the .375 on Kodiak, and then only because I got it cheep so it's way it's more disposable than my 1954 John Rigby.

I'd feel a little silly toting a 12lb dangerous game rifle with a barrel harmonic stabilizer in the Midwest deer woods...But it's good to have when I got a deer down and I know there's 1000lb brownies around.
The 270gr solid comes flying out at +2800fps, and it's so fucking loud it'll make the rain stop. Yeah it kicks a little, but it doesn't tear a deer up any worse than a slug.

Guess I have no idea what you're talking about. This rifle is 8 pounds or less with the optic n a loaded mag. But congrats on the bear kills?

Granted, I'm new to reloading, but have reloaded a few thousand straight walled .40 and 9mm cartridges with little to no brass prep and no adverse effects, including mag feeding and extraction, and have no idea what you mean by "trapping air".

Henry levers in .44

I highly recommend this one. Made in USA, far superior engineering to original historic Henrys.
