Re: So I picked up a new rifle.... And some questions

As far as ammunition, I'm very likely going to slug the bore and learn more about the rifle before I fire it, not to mention that this summer has been cruel to my wallet

But I live a stone's throw away from you

Re: So I picked up a new rifle.... And some questions

I had my suspicions that it might have come out of Yugoslavia, as it has none of the standard German markings on it. I've already cross referenced with all the information I can find on the German makes. Apart from the S S S stamped into the rear sight base plate. But from what I gather, that is an ...

So I picked up a new rifle.... And some questions

But it's 71 years old. And I'm having trouble identifying exactly where it came from. A first glance over indicates of course that it is a k98. But there are NO markings at all on the wide part of the receiver where you would commonly see marks. The bolt is a mismatch, which I'm okay with. I bought ...

Re: Breakdown

Well..it's a completely different beast than a Harley Davidson at a standstill. 100% air cooled 1600cc motor. And this particular one gets so dang hot it will burn me through leather chaps and a layer of denim if I'm not moving. It's definitely a cruiser and too slow to cut in and out of traffic lik...

Re: Breakdown

It's called cutting across a parking lot to avoid a traffic control device. Never wrote it, but made several stops for it. Live and learn. I went home and looked into the laws myself and found out I was in the wrong. I'm not afraid to admit that, and I don't do it anymore. WTR...it's not necessaril...

The woes of Unique

So...I picked up all the stuff needed to reload .45 auto yesterday and set it up. I normally load 45 colt with TiteGroup and it meters incredibly well through my Lee auto disk. But I wanted to try the Unique, as I've heard it's an amazing pistol powder. Well...I found out no matter what I did, I cou...

Re: Breakdown

Oh it's definitely not any easier for the general public. Minor traffic things, for example. I had an experience a few months ago where I had taken a right turn through a parking lot on my motorcycle instead of waiting behind six cars at a red light. Was pulled over and informed that it was a city o...

Breakdown

So over the past couple of weeks I've been dealing with some issues with my truck...and I took it out today after tossing some parts on and I broke down in Irving and had to call for a wrecker. Since I was on the street I also called for an officer to come supervise while I waited. Had my Xds on my ...

Re: OC outing this evening

Based on my limited experience, it also has advantages over IWB for bigger folks such as myself. It's just not comfortable at all to have a pistol tucked into the waist band

Re: 2016 Application Watch - post your 2016 timelines here

Well...my application process was VERY basic. I did the application before I ever went to the class, so there was that. I also don't have anything worse than a speeding ticket on my record. I took great care in making sure all my information was 100% accurate. Never had a passport...everything was d...

Re: Went to gun show today: Original Ft.Worth Gun Show

Right on...I've been to a few gun shows here and there, mostly shopping for reloading components. But it's insulting that someone wants to charge me $60 for a 30 year old set of rusty all steel .45 ACP dies. I've found some deals..got my RCBS single stage for $50, but I have noticed a trend at most ...
