Gunforhire, we don't have a lot of choices for 5.45x39, would surplus 7N6 be allowed in Woodland Park range? 

Some other ranges have similar ammo rules, but allow 7N6 simply because there is no "politcorrect" ammo in this caliber. 

If not, what ammo in this caliber is allowed and is it available for sale at the range? 

 

Thanks

I honestly doubt that ( tests show it doesn't penetrate 3/8 steel at 200 yards   youtube.com/watch?v=MmVZE86lb7g ) but I understand your caution. 

 

Would commercial Silver Bear be OK? It doesn't have steel core but I think it's bi-metal.

^^^^^This is why some Indoor Ranges make you shoot only ammo you BUY at the Range.........

 

Would you point me to a range that actually sells 5.45x39? Haven't seen one yet in Northern NJ. 

In Bullet Hole guys said they don't know this caliber at all.

It looks like the surplus stuff is steel core.  I wouldn't want people shooting it in my range either.  But this stuff here...http://www.ammunitionstore.com/products/5-45x39mm-ammo-60gr-fmj-wolf-wpa-polyformance-30-round-box.html  looks to be FMJ and no mention of steel except the case.

Yes, all Russian commercial 5.45x39 ammo is about the same, I'm talking about Silver Bear (what I have), about same thing but believed to be a bit better quality/more accurate. I know for sure there is no steel core - it's hunting ammo.

Anthony,

 

Is there an online list of the firearms rentals? I do not see one here:

 

http://gunforhire.com/firearm-rentals/

 

Maybe we could get a quick synopsis.....

At a minimum I hope there will be a p226r in 9mm and a decent quality ar15. And really wish a p239 in 9mm made the list and a j frame but they would be less NJ practical. Anything else would be icing for me

My guy Charlie is working on the list now. We will list online the gun/model/type/cal/ and for some a little history and where it was used for a little backdrop. This will be followed in a few weeks with pictures.

Hey Anthony, what 7.62x39 ammo is acceptable to use in the range?

 

Is golden tiger or herter's okay to shoot there?  I know milsurp is a big no-no since it's usually steel core, but any other cheaper alternatives okay?

Until the ammo shortages subside you can shoot andy steel ammo at our range.

    • I use an Alien Gear cloak tuck (IWB) with my Shield.  Neoprene back - in the summer it does feel warm but doesn't rub or chafe.   https://aliengearholsters.com/ruger-lcp-iwb-holster.html Could also go with the shapeshift as it has multiple options - OWB/IWB, Appendix... https://aliengearholsters.com/ruger-lcp-shapeshift-modular-holster-system.html
    • The  12-1 compression ratio L88 is long gone. This is GM's updated version. it might be  pump gas 10-1 engine The L88 was a aluminum head  cast iron block engine with a nasty solid lifter cam. the  ZL1 was a all aluminum  12 or 13-1 compression ratio engine with the best forged internal parts at the time and had a even nastier solid lifter cam 
    • I like my regular carry holster.  OWB leather with belt slots.  I've been carrying for over a year and it was comfortable and I hardly even noticed it.  I carry (usually) a Ruger LCP .380 - light, convenient, tiny. But...today I ended up taking it off an leaving it home after a few hours. I cut down a big maple tree a few days ago and I spent 3/4 of today loading and unloading firewood into the back of my truck and a trailer.  It was a warm day, I was dirty, tired, sweaty, and my holster was rubbing against my side.  The leather and exposed metal snap was no longer comfortable. I'm thinking about adding a layer of something to that part of the holster to soften the contact.  Anything insulating will make it worse.  I don't want a sweaty, hotter holster against my skin.  I'm imagining something thin, breathable, that won't absorb sweat, and softer than leather, metal snaps, and rivets.   But I have no idea what would work. I'm hoping somebody else has already figured this out and I can just do what they did. Any suggestions appreciated.
    • Check the primers on the ammo you didn't shoot yet. Are they fully seated? If the primer is not just below flush with the back of the case, the first hit can seat it better then the second hit ignites it.
