tankcommander

"> I put one on my Colt to see what it was all about and shot at 25 meters. It worked very well, was very controllable. I bought the Promag Broom handle foregrip. It was $12 at Midway. The way I see it its mainly for close combat. if I was using my Colt for HD I would use one. I was in a mall ninja mood when I bought it. It's fun to use at the range but I would take it off for long range target shooting. TC

Real Sherman tanks and the best Tank Commander ever portrayed in film, must have cleaned up at the Oscars.

Kelly's Heros my favorite, Invictus was excellent, Hunt for Red October always good. Any Star Wars movie. Band of Brothers great mini series. I love Zombieland good for a laugh and 1911s and Emma Stone. I'm just sayin. Sex Drive for teen comedy. just some ideas. Top Gun for F-14s. TC

Welcome to the forum. Sorry to hear that Cherry Hill is a police state inside a police state. The first gun is for self defense the rest are for shear fun. Does a woman only have 1 pair of shoes?

Its a baby compared to a Mosin or Enfield, but it does chew up brass. Not really for a reloader. TC

If the stupid hags husband or some one else on the damn train had been allowed to carry the women wouldn't be in Congress.

"> I have had a lot of luck with my PTR-91. I've had it for a few years bought it the first year they came out. TC

Saw it last week and love it. Thanks for sharing. TC

RIP Dick Winters,a true hero.

Well I now have my 15-22, Tony gave me a great price and it was a pleasure to meet him. Can't wait to shoot it. Thanks again Tony. TC

Well I should have mine tomorrow, can't wait. TC

TJ Sporting Arms Bayville. They gave me a good price PM Tony. I can't wait. TC

Thanks for the tip. TC

Well I finally made up my mind and should have the cash soon,I want to get the S&W 15-22 as my next rifle. Does anyone know who has them in stock. I'm in Middlesex county, I'm going for the 22 since you get more range time for $ of ammo. I have enough large rifles for the zombies. Willing to travel for a good price. Thanks for the help. TC

Glad to hear my folks did OK. Its not the big issue everyone thinks if you do it right. You would be surpised at all the people who get it wrong no lock, in a soft bag, loose in a soft bag, shipped in a crappy $20 rifle case. I wouldn't ship a $1000 gun in a $20 case. Hope all goes well in Fl. I had held back commenting on the TSA threads, I figured once I said something I get ragged on, but I had to comment on this one, glad I could help. I reread every response 4 times to be sure I'm not saying anything I shouldn't. But anyone who has checked a firearm in C knows the proceedure, it may cost a few minutes but it safe guards your property and your travel. Safe trip home. TC

They are not an issue but anything gun related will get some additional scrutiny. But i'm sure you have run into people who are either totally ignorant regarding firearms and ammo or so into the letter of the law they forget the intent. We have a few of those but our supervisors are level headed and able to make the right decision. No cavity search but your coat or whatever the casings were in would be checked. Live rounds another matter, LEO call. Check your pockets before travel,reduce your chances for additional screening. Unless you want that cavity search. TC

Wojo, Continental uses one point for firearms to reduce the risk of theft, a lesson learned the hard way, an orange tag on the outside of a bag says I'm a gun steal me. We also wanted firearms to be checked by more experianced people which can be done if they all come to one location. In the other terminals the domestic airlines only have one baggage belt and handling area. In B the Port controls the belts and they are shared by all the international carriers. Complaints made to Washington about TSA are given back to local management to investigate. Just ask some one this question, "were you rude to an old lady 6 weeks ago about 0900," they only see 4-5000 folks a day. My officers have to listen to the rudest idiotic crap from the traveling public. " I have no idea how that fill in the blank got in my bag." Sorry about the rant. Hey some of the officers have no people skills I didn't hire them I just have to supervise them. TC

It has to do with their operations, Counter agents being unfamiliar with proceedures and things going missing between TSA and the plane, the stories I can't tell. You would not believe the size of the operation behind the ticket counters, even with no harm intended its easy for stuff to go missing, the fact not much does is amazing. One entry point one exit and its accounted for the entire way. Also Continental runs C. The other terminals are shared, they can induce firearms any where that makes sense for them, we just check them. Also one entry point reduces the chance one of our less experianced officers is involved with your weapon. Don't fly with hollow points PAPD is clueless in regards to the law, avoid the hassle. When I worked in baggage I loved checking firearms, first I knew what I was doing, always tried to be helpful to owner and saw some really nice guns. TC

TSA does not check your firearm it is the carriers job to make sure it isn't loaded. Their SOP prohibits any TSA officer from touching any firearm. Your declaration that it is unloaded is enough, they check the case for threats that could destroy an aircraft the firearm is not an issue, if however it is found to be loaded during the check a LEO will be called. Every air carrier handles the firearm in a different manner. The size of the case determines how the weapon and case are checked. What airline did you use and what terminal did you fly out of? Some airlines are a bit paranoid since some weapons got "lost" by their bag handlers. Yes I work at Newark.

They are a great company. I ordered a pint of CLP, the top was lose and it leaked abit inside. I sent them an e-mail advising them to make sure the caps are tight before mailing. They sent me another pint. It leaked too, but I wasn't complaining. Good web sight and great cusomer service, I just wish they carried more surplus ammo. TC

Now Nordic wants $295 for the stock set, if you add a new barrel and a 10/22 the SR-22 doesn't look so bad price wise. My stock 10/22 would look a little silly poking out of the Nordic foregrip. TC

Found a link for a pretty concise review of the SR-22. http://www.gunsumerreports.com/review_ruger_sr-22_p1.php

I saw it for under $500. I have an AR I don't need a repeat in 22. The stock is factory pinned and no flash Suppressor. Also accessory rails can be mounted to the fore grip. It looks like a fun gun. TC

Anyone have one of these yet. I saw it in Sayerville Sportsman a few weeks ago and liked the feel. I have 2 other 10/22s so I know its a reliable action. It was just uber cool. So I'm saving up for one. Checked it out on YouTube, heard mostly good things. Opinions? TC
