LOL I dunno why, but this scene popped into my head.

Re: The Gun Thread
 

Do you like the magnifier?

I am tempted to get an EOTECH with magnifier but people say its cuts your vision down pretty good. But I want something with the ability to hit further targets.

Re: The Gun Thread
 

I like mine as it's on a swing out quick mount for easy off or movement to the side.

Re: The Gun Thread
 

just bought a ruger 10/22 for 219$ at cabelas today, got home and ordered a match grade trigger kit, match grade bull barrel and a stock to fit it! should be fun project. i think im going to build a ar15 next!

Re: The Gun Thread
 

I want a .22 rifle but I can't find .22 LR anywhere so whats the point :(

Re: The Gun Thread
 

I can't believe .22lr is still in short supply up there. I have a few thousand rounds at my house and I seem to be able to find more any time I want. I sent 500 of them as a gift to my brother in law and he was super excited so he could go shoot again, boggles my mind.

Maybe I should start a side business buying ammo here and selling to peeps up there who can't find it haha. Last time I think I bought a case of 5000 CCI blazer for $170ish.

Re: The Gun Thread
 

I can get 500rds of 22lr for $20 at Fleet Farm (kinda like menards/home depot but with guns) here in Winona. Comes in about once a week or every other week. Limit 1 box per customer though.

I just picked up a S&W M&P Shield 40. Came with 100rds of critical defense ammo, 3 holsters, extended mag and has never been fired except from the factory. Paid $275. Definitely happy with that deal and the way it shoots.

I was waiting for the XD-s 40 but obviously they came out with the 4.0 9mm and will probably take forever to produce a 40 cal XD-s, if they ever do. Decided this would be a nice addition to the collection.

Re: The Gun Thread
 

before my grandpa passed away he started buying ammo like it was going out of style, hes probably got 20k+rounds of .22 and 10K rounds of other miscellaneous calibers so when i need some i just go visit my grandma. hes go an impressive collection, i remember hear he lost count at like 58 hand guns... i know when holiday use to sell guns way back in the day and they decided they weren't going to carry them anymore he bought the inventory of marlin 30-30's from the holiday down the street! i bet he has over 150 guns in his house still.. even though hes no longer with us.

Re: The Gun Thread
 

I think I speak for everyone here... Take some pics of the collection next time you are there. It would be awesome to see!

Re: The Gun Thread
 

Finally got around to de-neutering my M77 and making it compliant.



Modded an M14 mag to fit, replaced the FCG and threw on an AMD Brake until the Tabuk style gets here.

Now I just need to find some M70 wood

Re: The Gun Thread
 

That is a very cool looking weapon!

Re: The Gun Thread
 

I love the thumb hole stock, not sure why some don't like it. Makes for good accuracy. Love the long barrel.

Re: The Gun Thread
 

Should knock down a deer or two in my lifetime.

On another note, during my quest to expand my .357 magnum collection, I stumbled across a great deal from one of my tool guys

Ruger GP100 4" barrel

Still looking for that elusive 94AE in .357 though

Re: The Gun Thread
 

Anybody have an used .45 acp shells laying around? I'd buy ya a beer or something!

Apparently people use those as ais block offs on my new project bike

Re: The Gun Thread
 

Anyone know of anyone that would want my SCAR 16s? I'd throw in ammo, pmags, case, sling etc.

paid a ton for it, would be willing to do 2300 for it probably, maybe 500 rounds or so through it.

I am trying to think outside the box on how I could maybe get the evo going. I think I like cars more than I like guns. The SCAR is awesome but i use it as much as I use my evo, meaning none. Two expensive hobbies (guns and cars) are not needed in my life and I will just use my 9mm pistol at the range to satisfy that urge when I get it.

I am not trying real hard to sell this but if it sold then I would put the evo back in action.

Feel free to PM.

Re: The Gun Thread
 

Put it on armslist.

Every gun I've listed on there has sold within a month. Even the 'spensive ones.

Re: The Gun Thread
 

Sounds good. My uncle might buy it, if not I will throw it up on there.

Just looked around at pricing, looks like SCAR's and for that matter all AR's have really dropped in price, must be some serious stock around the US. I think to sell mine I will have to drop to 2100 or even a bit less. Bummer...

Thanks for the advice though.

Re: The Gun Thread
 

As weird as this sounds, the economist in me says keep the gun. Like homes guns tend to increase in value over time as opposed to cars which are pretty much cash burning dumpsters of poo long term. Remember the guns and butter analogy? :)
