    Tanks a LOT!

    Dang, that looked like 2+ companies worth of Abrams - I counted 29 of them. Reminds me of the time years ago when I was driving by the Wichita Mts Wildlife Refuge next to Ft. Sill. I was on a two-lane highway, and as I came around a bend in the road, I was stopped by MP’s who had two pickup...

    The Mule

    If that’s the one with Clint Eastwood, I thought it was not one of his better movies. Just “OK,” but that’s just me.

    I am afraid that the value of formerly collectible handguns is going down. Hear me out.

    This. With a few exceptions, firearms as a whole aren’t where the investment dollars can work best. Now, in a societal collapse, firearms will be worth their weight in gold - or whatever you feel is more useful to barter for. Firewood, chickens, water filtration equipment, etc…

    Any cabinet makers here?

    I haven’t bought any since last fall, but IIRC, two sheets of 3/8” thick BB cost me a bit over $100.

    Any cabinet makers here?

    I do a fair bit of woodworking, and Dakota is my go-to for hardwood lumber. Haven’t gotten any plywood from them, but I stick with real 5’ x 5’ Baltic birch plywood from M&M Lumber for that purpose. Very pricey, but worth it compared to the usual cabinet-grade plywood that’s available...

    Daddy want!

    I agree, with that many rounds spent and you need more, you’re in over your head. BTW, you can get a 20-round drum mag for the Saiga - no need to fiddle with spinning tubes or reloads for that many rounds. I know some people will drool over a shotgun that looks like it came off the movie set...

    Daddy want!

    Mags would be easier to drop and load, I think, than a fiddly spinning tube. Drum mags aren’t that big, and they look Chicago Typewriter cool ;)

    Any cabinet makers here?

    You might check with Dakota Hardwoods. They sell a lot of lumber, including plywood, to local contractors.

    Wood lathe

    No kidding. I remember when I was a kid, visiting a friend of mine one day while his dad was setting up a secondhand wood lathe in their garage. He mounted the lathe on a card table, chucked up a wood blank, and started the lathe. The blank was a tad off-center, and the lathe and table...

    Daddy want!

    I wonder why manufacturers don’t spend more time on mag-fed semi-auto shotguns. Those just seem a lot more practical than rotating mag tubes, and the overall package would be a lot more compact. Tromix S12 Saiga, anyone?

    27 Years Ago Today

    I missed this thread first time around. I was at a conference in NE Georgia the day it happened, but I had no idea and was wondering why people at the conference were asking me if I worked in the Federal building in OKC. Finally figured it out, and went to my room at lunchtime to turn on the...

    North East OK .303 British bullets and once-fired brass

    Bump. No one reloads for .303 British? This is a good deal.

    ATF Final Rule Redefines Word ‘Sale’ So that ‘Bartering’ for a Neighbor’s Gun Requires a NICS Check

    And yet, here we are with court cases like Britto v. ATF, Mock v. Garland, VanDerStok v. Garland, etc…. Chevron deference has got to be curtailed severely and posthaste.

    One step at a time gun control.

    At this point, the key phrase in this (unconstitutional) rule is “make a profit.” For us Joe Blows who buy a firearm, own/shoot it a while, then sell it for less than what we paid for it - in other words, take a financial loss - the (unconstitutional) rule should not apply. IANAL, but that’s...

    One step at a time gun control.

    Just like with the recent ATF rules regarding 80% lowers and pistol braces… … the Dems don’t care. Until it looks like SCOTUS will rule against them. Then they’ll just figure out workarounds, like in CA and NY.
