I am just going to keep my mouth shut from now on. I just cant believe how an animal gets more respect than most citizens. I cant comprehend how they think an animal should be held to the same standards as a human. Maybe next time I see a police dog licking his nads, I should ask that he be charged with indecent exposure. Imagine a human cop doing so in public? (that would definately be youtube material-LOL) Until he has the same control and composure as a human, he is just a working animal.

I guess my problem is how this dog is considered an "officer." It was a tool, used in the line of duty. No different than a car or a glock. The tool had a function, taking down badguys, searching for drugs ect. So when the police dog bites a bad guy is that considered assault? I am getting a new truck in the spring. My Dakota now has 519,000 miles on it and it is about time for a new one. I would cordially like to invite everyone to my place when I get rid of it for a nice little ceremony, maybe invite the local HS marching band. I am attached to this truck, it has served me well. So come spring I am going to have a little ceremony saying farewell to "Trucky" and all of NJGF is invited. Maybe I can have some friends at the local airport arrange a little Cessna flyover........

I have just a regular GI rock island. I have put countless rounds down the tube and haven't had one issue with it period! For the price, you cant go wrong.

Human yes, they should get a flyover if the family wants it. But a DOG! come on now. I am sorry the little furry "officer" got killed but, damn... My dog drinks out of the toilet sometimes, should i start leaving breath mints in the bathroom for him.

It was an absolute waste. When my goldfish dies, I flush it down the toilet to the big pond, when my dog dies i dig a hole in the backyard and bury it respectfully..... I dont need bagpipes and a helicopter. It was a pet, that is it. Was it used for law enforcement yes, but it is a tool just like an officers sidearm or his car. Animals should not be honored as police officers. What next, plaques for faithful service when they retire a crown vic with 200,000 miles! ***FLAME SUIT ON***

I can hear my money flushing down the toilet now. The just moved half the distance closer to me........uh oh!

I would honestly like to know how many mosins have been sold in the US alone. At every gunshow, you always see crates of them and there are always people buying them.

Heads up to yall, Sarco is moving from Stirling NJ to Easton PA! As of the 15th they will not be selling any firearms at thier location in Stirling. The new store will be at 50 Hilton Street, Easton PA, and wont be open until the end of January. Just a heads up so you dont drive to Stirling and get dissapointed.

holy bejeezus! Mitchells gets 449 for a 24/47!! I am a millionaire!! The Yugo 24/47's are excellent guns for the money and most are unissued since refurb in 1947 with new barrels. They can easily be had for less than $200 at most gunshows. Heck over the summer, I helped matt6669 pick one out at Eagle Arms in the exact condition of a Mitchells for $180. Like I said Mitchells is a rip.

Cemeterys Gun Blob My initial cut gave me a 20" barrel. I then took about a half inch off, so maybe 19.5 inch. I would say dont cut until you get your shroud, as you may need to cut a little more to get it right.

just hit up a gunshow, they normally have crates of em for $99!

and after a little more filing and tweaking, a bayonet does securly fit on too! Now to cut back the barrel about 1/2 an inch to the right length and I'll be happy for today.

Well project rust bucket is making more progress. I just finished putting the heat shield/bayo lug on. WHAT A PAIN IN THE BUTT! I had to hone out the diameter of the lug where it slides over the barrel with a brake cylinder hone to get it so it will slide over the barrel. It took me a couple of hours. Then I had the fun job of notching the barrel so the securing screws can pass through. That too was tricky, but I got it done. I had to re-tap the holes in the bayo lug because I buggered up the threads a little. SOOOO, unless you have a tenacious personality, dont even try it. I had this thing off and on maybe 100 times test fitting and then doing a little filing. IT IS A PAIN!!! so after maybe 5hrs and a half of a case of beer here it is..........

I gotta add to my previous post, the Remington Mosin, the WASR 10, and the 1942 Colt 1911, so I guess I am at 28 for this year.

companies like glock and others that focus on polymers market hype as tactical and lightweight, but the main reason they switched is it is cheaper to produce. A high quality mold can be reused almost forever and never give you issues. Steel guns require machining which is labor and cost intensive. The problem is the cheap companies aren't passing the cost savings to the end user, aka the customer.

Today is the day that changed history. May the world never forget the sacrifices made by the Greatest Generation.

I have a rock island and love it. For the price you cant beat them. I put a couple thousand rounds through it and not one hiccup so far.

I am going to the one in Mt. Bethel.

USNmars...... I was in the Navy for a while and my lastname is huge with the first couple of letter being Mars. All of my friends call me Mars. When I first got out, it was weird having people call me Eric. To this day, I am still mars to my friends, so USNmars it is.

Well it doesn't even seem like the same rust bucket that i first got. And at least the action is smooth as glass. Off to do some more polishing.......

here are some updated pics so far. I got the mag tube rough polished, and about half the barrel. I had to basically re-make a fore end for it and do a ton of stock repairs. I am not sure I like the fore end, might have to age it a little with some leather dye. But here it is. a polished mag tube and half a barrel. woo hoo, slow and steady. She should be done by the spring.

now this is funny as hell... Almost spit out my coffee while reading this! Funny

looks good!
