Metlzers goes the extra mile

Recommended Posts

Got the Hard Sell on a Mosin from Meltzers.

 

Well, er...sorta.

 

So I went down to Meltzers in Garfield about 2 weeks ago.

 

I asked about Mosins and they didn't have any but the guy was helpful and told me to inquire in a few weeks...

 

fast forward to last Sunday.

 

We landed in Frankfurt and as I'm standing there waiting for bags, there's the Meltzers guy. He said "I knew you wanted a Mosin...you didn't have to follow me to Germany to get it" :lol:

 

We had a chat while we stood there....he was vacationing around the area for 2 weeks.

Great story. I know a couple of the guys there. Who was it?

 

I forgot to ask. It's the Silver hair'd guy with a narrow face, I'd say 6 feet tall, 55yo or so. I didn't get his name. I think he's a boss or supervisor. There's another guy there that fits the description sorta, but I think that guy is older

Just put a bullet in the boar head first if the boar swallows the bullet then it's got some use.

It should sit tightly in place. My Hex 1923 is tight, my M-44 swallows the pullet until about 3" down the pipe.

    • If you’re going to VA, buy 2 radios.  Program one for here and one for there.  If you guys are buying Baofeng radios do yourself a favor and get a tactical antenna for it,it’ll extend your reach.
    • Both our memories are a bit lacking. 3 bystanders were hit by NYPD bullets and 6 were hit by fragments at the Empire State Building shooting. The bullets later were determined to have passed through the bad guy as I said. He was not a big guy. The police fired 16 rds and 7 hit the bad guy.  Spray and pray?  I think not.  These officers fired until the threat was stopped and everyone is moving. Have you ever tried to hit a moving target whilst you're moving.  If you watch the video from where the police encounter him, the BG draws his gun from his bag, NYPD guys shoot, and the BG hit the ground is about 2 or 3 seconds.  The closest officer is maybe 12 feet or less.  The closest cover are those concrete flower pots.  If the officers chose to take cover before drawing the BG would have had a chance to shoot at least one officer. Know your target and beyond?  Agree 100%.  However, this by the Empire State Building at 9 am during the week.  There are bystanders and traffic in every direction.  The officers had a choice of doing what they did or letting the BG shoot them with his 1911 and shoot someone else. I think they made the right choice and the same one I would have made.  The officers exercised the best option in protecting themselves and the public. The first video is the police shooting.  The second is more detailed and gives you a lot of background information on the shooter. One thing this shows is if NYPD had to use fmj undoubtedly more bystanders would have been wounded perhaps killed.  NJ's hollowpoint law. only creates more danger to the public.
