Paying it forward - One free NRA membership

About a year ago when my wife was in school and money was tight another poster here threw out an NRA membership as a gift. Now that my wife has finished school I would like to pay it forward to someone here. First one to reply in here to confirm that they are not currently a member and would like to...

Heck of a deal! I definitely don't need it but if I had seen this earlier I would have done it in a heartbeat

Re: Sugar Land Public Library

I believe Ft Bend County considers libraries an extension of school since learning takes place there.

Re: AR-15 trigger?

While not a trigger job, the first thing I did after getting my two AR's was install Geissele triggers

Because you'd have to be high to make so many poor decisions.

Re: Gander Mountain Bankruptcy

I support local when I can. But I won't pay 2-3 times local for what I can buy online if I can help it. I prefer instant gratification, helping the local economy, and seeing what I buy before I buy it. Last weekend I was looking for a guitar stand. I needed two. I found two, one was marked at $20. ...

Re: It's because of one person...

Mine was also my dad. He taught me how to shoot very young and we would go walk the property shooting rabbits and the occasional snake. When he passed away I inherited his collection and it's just taken off from there. So speaking of my dad, he passed when I was 23. I was dumb and sold the Bersa Fir...

Re: Anyone know where Hornady presses are made?

Just following back around on this. I did end up going with the Dillon. I also built a new workbench for it. I built the workbench last Friday, started to mount the press but I was missing the accessory box so I couldn't finish. I got the accessory box in the mail yesterday and finished it up. I had...

Re: .45 HP necessary YorN

Better, most likely. Necessary, probably not. Lots of things to consider but I would use whatever feeds reliably in your carry gun and whatever you can most quickly and accurately put on target.

I'll be about 5 minutes away from this facility it seems. I might go check it out just for grins but I dont suspect it will change my weekend routine from PSC

Re: Anyone know where Hornady presses are made?

Haha you definitely are. I'm going to look into installing the case feeder for the Dillon onto the Hornady. I hadn't read about that in my googling.

Re: Anyone know where Hornady presses are made?

Thank you! The case feeder with the AP is about $740 even at the sale price. That's only about $50 off from the Dillon with the case feeder. Seeing as how I view this as a long term investment I think the lifetime warranty is worth that. I also plan on reloading rifle and handgun in large amounts so...

Re: 45-70 vs 30-30 in Marlin lever rifle

I did decide to go with the Henry after I went and held both in person. The fit and finish difference was huge. I'm going with the brass octagonal 22" barrel Henry in 45-70. I chose the 45-70 since I for the most part this will be a collection, conversation and fun range gun. The 45-70 fit tha...

Re: Anyone know where Hornady presses are made?

I think the ~$600 for a 650 is the bare press. You'll still need dies and a case feeder. One thing to note: The Hornady works quite well without the case feeder, I consider it an add-on, and a nice touch, but the press is designed to operate without the case feeder. The Dillon 650 is NOT designed t...
