Just wondering. Are there folks out there that would like to go to a reloading class. Just the basics. Like set up powder charges. How to set up your dies. So when the next plandemic happens you’re not paying triple what you should be. Ive been blessed over the years to know people that have this knowledge. And i have acquired this knowledge from them. Just curious. How many of yall would be interested. Free of charge for the first class. If you are really in shooting and know its a sustainable multi year thing you’ll do. Would you be interested in our multitude years of experience that we can transfer to the next generation? Let me know.

Armor plate! Be sure to use green tips!

Constitutional carry is bs. We have the right to carry via second amendment. Its all bs weak people. Weak minds. Weak ethics weak morals. Thats how we got here. Get some balls folks. Dont be afraid to sacrifice. Easy times make weak men. And thats where were at right now

Gun is sold!

If you shouldn't talk to the police until you have legal representation, you sure as hell shouldn't talk to a reporter. I can see the reporter being called to the witness stand to 'recall what the assailant said'. What a jackass.

It sounds like a justified shooting. I mean, a determined home invader forcibly entering your house? Yeah, that's certainly reason to be afraid for your life! That said (and maybe this is just my own reaction), I really wish this gun owner was more circumspect in his speech after the fact. Saying things to a reporter like he did, for example: "I knew ... after he came through the door like that, I can shoot him" and “I pumped two into him there. He went down the steps that way and I got him a third time I hope”... IMO, those phrases should have been replaced with: I was in fear for my life - I was sure he was going to kill me! I only did what I had to do to stop him. I hope no one else ever experiences something so terrifying in their own home..." (or better yet...) No interviews at all!! Keep your yap shut. And if you must for some reason (though I can't imagine why anyway has to take an interview...), at least have your highly qualified lawyer - who you rehearsed with in advance - sitting right next to you during the interview (poised to stuff a cork in your mouth the instant you go off-script). IMO, even the most smart, self-disciplined and experienced speaker is liable to screw-up an interview if the reporter is clever/nimble in their questioning (and I mean ANY interview, so that's without factoring a person's relative inexperience at interviewing AND the extreme level of duress likely to occur after a home invasion/shooting). You also must assume that everything this guy said is then part of the record... even if he's not charged criminally, couldn't it be used against him in a civil case? And even though it seems the home owner's actions were justified, his choice of words, frankly, make him sound like a bit of a gun-slinging yahoo, which is really not a good look for the rest of us gun owners as far as I'm concerned. I personally view this case as an example of a justified shooting followed by some epically dumb public relations moves.

I saw it and couldn't resist.

Nice try North Jersey. That is an April Fools article.

My Dad was a Philly COP back in the Rizzo days. He found a woman in an ally, beaten with torn clothing. She was standing over her attempted rapist who she shot dead with an illegal gun. My father told her to put her gun back in her purse and go home! Right is right! She did not have a license to carry but she had a God given right to defend her own life, license or not. My dad recognized that right and set her free. I pray I run into the right COP should I have to use my gun in Philadelphia! If there are no witnesses, I won't wait around for that good COP......I'm outta there!

i won't go to philthy unarmed........

Glenn made springfield custom M1As. I just picked one up, made in 1990, bedded, NM all parts, an original Nelson made. Best of the bunch. This guy was truly amazing! I am getting what is called a five liner preban!. Just about new out of the box. Never changed most USGI parts. Other than NM barrel. most likely a Wilson. Great barrels. a little about Glenn. "Glenn Eugene Nelson joined the U. S. Army in 1954 and became a member of its shooting team in 1961. He earned Distinguished Rifleman status in 1962. He remained on the Army shooting team until late 1965 when he accepted an offer to become a match armorer. He completed the U. S. Army match armorer school at Rock Island Arsenal then began building M14 rifles for competition as part of the USAMTU at Fort Benning. He was trained at the USAMTU by Sergeant "Hook" Boutin. Mr. Nelson went on to serve in Viet Nam and the Non-Commissioned Officer-In-Charge of the AMU Custom Gun Shop. Master Sergeant Nelson retired from the U. S. Army in 1975. As soon as Reese Surplus, Inc. purchased Springfield Armory, Inc. in 1974, Bob Reese hired Glenn Nelson to establish a shop that could build competition grade M1A rifles. Mr. Nelson began building Ultra Match M1 Garand and National Match and Super Match M1A rifles from his home. However, by 1987 the business had grown such that Nelson’s Custom Gun Shop occupied 5,000 square feet of building space. Over the years he put together a first rate staff of former AMTU match armorers and former Army team shooters. Mr. Nelson and his staff kept up with and implemented the latest accurizing techniques used by the AMTU as time went on. Mr. Nelson built competition rifles for Springfield Armory, Inc. until 2004. Mr. Nelson’s FFL Book had logged over 41,200 entries for rifles received for his gifted touch. When Mr. Nelson retired from business, his machine tools and shop equipment were sold to Chief Warrant Officer 3 Ken Corcoran, U. S. Army (Retired) of North Pole, AK. Chief Warrant Officer Corcoran was an AMU armorer himself. The custom Super Match M1A rifles were fitted with either Douglas or Hart heavyweight barrels. These heavyweight barrels were available in 1:10, 1:11, or 1:12 twist rates. Mr. Nelson required the air-gauged and stress-relieved barrel blanks supplied to him have a bore diameter between 0.2999 " and 0.3004 " and a groove diameter between 0.3079 " and 0.3084 ". The heavyweight barrel blanks were supplied with rifling obviously, but the rest of the machining was done by Mr. Nelson or his employees. National Match medium weight barrels were supplied by Springfield Armory, Inc. to Mr. Nelson already for installation by other suppliers. The operating rod guides were soldered on to the barrels. For individual customers, Mr. Nelson machined hand picked medium weight and heavyweight Douglas Premium barrel blanks and installed them in rifle builds unless the customer specified otherwise. To give the reader an idea of what is possible with the M14 rifle and a talented armorer, the following will illustrate the point. In April 1986, Glenn Nelson built a Super Match M1A rifle from stripped receiver serial number 033187. The build included all TRW parts and a National Match rear sight. After final assembly, this rifle was tested on a machine rest. It grouped fourteen shots under the size of a nickel at 200 yards with 168 grain Sierra bullets. The test target was presented to the buyer, a member of the Second Army Shooting Team. Mr. Nelson and his staff used the same Springfield Armory, Inc. M1A receivers used on standard models to create state-of-the-art competition rifles. They performed the match conditioning work and 90 % of the assembly on the receivers sent to the Nelson shop in Columbus, GA by Springfield Armory, Inc. Mr. Nelson purchased TRW bolts for building all the National Match and Super Match M1A rifles in his shop. Headspace on these rifles was kept between 1.631 " and 1.632 ". The M1A rifles dressed in wood stocks were coated several times with raw linseed oil. The almost-complete rifles were shipped back to Springfield Armory, Inc. for final assembly, test firing, packaging and shipping. Final assembly in Geneseo, IL included installation of the front and rear sights, operating rods, hand guards and slings. Mr. Nelson passed away on February 17, 2007 after battling several types of cancer."

agree 100% not to mention people sell used like it's new lol this one however, really is a good deal. The first gen are by far the best ones I may have to do this!

I hear that... Sadly, with the ahole in trenton and his new FFL/NICS for long guns, it put a damper on a lot of these simple nice deals.. Pre 6/2018 i would probably have grabbed this... meet up somewhere, share FID info, exchange cash/gun and go on our happy ways. Now its meet at FFL, pay for gun, pay for NICS/Transfer fee, come back in a week when NICS finally clears, and then go home with the gun pissed off and butt hurt for all the hassle just to get it...

You heard it here first, from me. Disney is remaking and rebranding a classic movie: Peter Pansexual Wendy will be very confused.

Almost done. New SF light and mag extension without a sling loop should be here this week.
