  1. LOL yeah it’s a little out of the box thinking but you could ask for donations.. Have people cut the waistband off a pair and send it. I bet one waistband could probably make quite a few masks if the material doesn’t fray when you cut it into 1/8 strips.. it could work haha
  2. @Zeke - No I don’t. I only have one set of spares.
  3. This sounds weird but how about the elastic waistband from boxer briefs? Not sure if it will fray if cut into strips but it might work.
  4. That video shows how much better 7.62x39 is as it is way more flexible of a round
  5. For the record, it’s a stabilizing brace, not a stock.

    My new pistol ...

    WTF mate!!! That thing is awesome!!!
  7. Hopefully all the bridges can be taken out to solve that problem.
  8. I have a question: If the news and govt. are supposedly hyping these figures of deaths by COVID-19, why don’t we always have mobile morgues sitting outside the hospitals in NYC? They are not there for show are they? What are funeral homes supposedly being overwhelmed by the number of dead bodies they have to process? Is that fake news?
  9. Everyone has different processes that work for them. For instance, I wet tumble so for pistol, yes I decap with a universal decamping die then clean, then continue loading. For 223, I just spray lube the cases resize and decap in the same stroke of the press. That die gets cleaned after every session. Then I trim before I tumble.. Crimp removal comes last in my process..I don’t want to clean 2 times and it works for me.. for others that may not work. There are a ton of ways to come up with the same result.
  10. If you are going to get a lawyer involved, why not use him or her to find out why you were denied in NJ in the first place.
  11. Right! They took over in 2013 before that they were known as Izhesvsk Machine Building Plant. That’s my point. This law was written well before 2013.
  12. Not trying to be a pain in the ass but Kalashnikov is the gun designer’s last name and until a few years ago the was no company or brand with Kalashnikov in the name. The law say types. It refers to no other gun on the ban list like this.. it’s meant to be a broad statement against all AK types of sporting rifles.
  13. So every time the AG changes do you have to get a new note? I still think it’s sketchy strictly by the way the statute is written. Could you win in court... maybe. A jury will convict you 9 out of 10 times just because AK’s are the poster child for “evil Rifles” It’s a risk IMO.
  14. NJ and Guns, definitely not perfect together..
  15. I get it.. I was really asking why are you still in NJ??
  16. I got one in a hidden closet...
  17. just paste the url into the text box
  18. I think it includes a set of dies where the titan reloading kit does not? I have not thought about it... I have full set ups for 9mm 45 ACP and .223 with separate powder measures and turrets for each.. Let me think about it.
  19. If your main objective is to load small batches of match type rifle ammo, then IMO you bought the wrong press. You should have bought a Reading or a RCBS Rock Chucker single stage. I am not a Lee hater, I own a LCTP with set ups for 9mm, 45ACP & .223 and for blaster ammo I wouldn't think twice about using it. I don't have any scientific proof regarding this though, just my opinion.. think there is a slight amount of play in that turret that is not there on a true single stage press which could result in small differences working against your original intent of loading uber-precise ammo.
  20. They make it for MTN bikes yeah! It’s basically mineral oil.
  21. We can disagree till the cows come home.. With a lee classic turret you are reloading one round at a time. And yes you can set up to 4 different dies at once per that press. The beauty of that is you can buy multiple turrets and set it once per caliber, and you are good to go. You are still only doing one operation per pull.. it is just that you don't have stop and change dies in order to move to the next stage. If you are getting into re loading pistol ammo, a single stage(with one die) just wont cut it in my opinion It's too slow and monotonous. You can take your time and learn all the steps on a turret press and go at your own pace. It is a far better way to load pistol ammo vs. a traditional single stage press.
  22. A turret press is simply a single stage press with positions to hold your dies as they are needed. It's not complicated and you can take out the auto indexing rod and index it with your hand if you would like.
  23. That APP device looks pretty slick. I wonder how the military crimp Swager works? Have you used it for that yet?
