What is your most interesting gun?
a mix of roadkill on the road in the summer and moldy mildewey. As per my gunsmith I keep rubbing vanilla into it once a month to try to neutralize the smell. It has helped quite a bit, but once it gets hot it starts coming out agin.

New Arizona TV ad's
Try doing that to the Mexican flag when in Mexico and see what happens. I am disgraced by those videos and say that we need to do more to protect our country from scum like that.

Monster Mosin.....Almost done. Updated 6-15-10
That is going to be my next project. I am going to have to use either single stack lahti mags or bren mags. The double stack psl mags were too wide and ended up being too much of a pain in the ass. I do have a receiver and mag well partially milled so soon you will see another monster project.

The whole shebang is getting sprayed with alumahyde in vietnam tiger stripe camo, scope, bipod and all. I fiberglassed it today, and have a ton more sanding now. Hopefully monday after the test shoot I can start painting.

Obama bans offshore oil drilling Russia drills off Cuban Coa
I read this before, and it was before the spill. I dont know what is going to happen, I honestly think the article is pure BS. Two days after the article, Comerade Obama signed that bill or whatever it was that was going to allow drilling off the East Coast. Now after the spill, I dont know what is going to happen. I dont think anything, but am keeping my ears open.

What is your most interesting gun?
Do you have a gun with a interesting history or story behind it? If so what ya got? I have a Peter the Great M91 that is completely covered in shrapnel. Makes you think what the hell happened to this thing? Or I have a bringback German K98(repro sling) that smells like hell. It is so bad I dont even keep it in my safe with the other guns. When you shoot it, If you shoot it a lot it makes you smell, so it doesn't get shot that much. I asked the vet that gave it to me about it and he said "the previous owner was all over that damn gun when he picked it up." After smelling the gun I believe it. A couple of board members were present when I shot it once, they didn't believe me. Once it got hot they were firm believers and asked me to put it away.

OIL RIGS UNDER ATTACK?
The only thing that disturbs me is the fact that boats do come up right underneath us fishing all the time. I have brought it up on several occasions on how it isn't safe that we allow them to get in that close, but was told not to worry about it.

Yugo 7.62x39-->$147.22( 900rnds)
I have read several reports online of wolf and hotshot ammo causing corrosion just like surplus. I just got in the habit of cleaning like I shoot corrosive ammo every time I clean regardless of the kind of ammo I shot.

Is .45 ACP Difficult to Find?
I sure am glad I bought enough for a lifetime of shooting at an auction for 150 last year. All 1942-1944 military. I recommend if you find it cheap stack it deep.

Monster Mosin.....Almost done. Updated 6-15-10
That is the barrel I used. It is pre cut for mosin threads. The crown is cut but has rough machining and needs to be smoothed out. The only thing I needed the lathe for was to cut that big bulge out of the middle of the barrel. It was aesthetic reasons not functionality, it was just ugly. From what I have seen so far, it headspaced good without reaming and seems to be timed right for the extractor. I wont know for sure until I do a test fire though. It does cycle with dummy rounds and seems like an awesome deal though.

oil Rig Epic Failure..
There is actually a emergency shut off valve, the media has it wrong. It is called a blowout preventer. It is standard equipment for all oil drilling. There are 2 giant hydraulic rams on a BOP one to choke the well shut and prevent a leak when under operations, and a second ram to "kill" the well. The kill pretty much pinches the well shut and is like squeezing a coke can in half. These rams and the BOP are tested religiously twice a week sometimes more depending on operations as per MMS requirements. The problem is that the well bore pressure is around 25,000 psi. Fighting against that pressure the rams are useless. Right now the Enterprise and DD3 are in transit to drill an "relief" well to try to control the pressure so the well can be either choked or cemented shut. This kind of thing there was pretty nothing much you could do.

Shops in PA
thats what I do. It is really sad when you are at a gunshow and dealers recognize you and even offer to let you stash your stuff at their table. That is when you know that the bug has bit you bad.

Shops in PA
Some of my favorites in north east pa: Furniture and Firearms Depot in Mt. Bethel -- Best shop around, very small but awesome guy to deal with. Weavers Firearms in Broadheadsville -- Phil is a dick and is a little higher priced but sometimes he has some really nice stuff. He has the nicest mosins going right now. Dunkelbergers in Stroudsburg -- Huge selection, but a sellout to Bloomburg in NY. I try not to give them my money unless it is something REALLY nice. Werners Surplus in Tannersville -- Seems like they are never open, but when they are he has some nice stuff. American Sport Shooter in Broadheadsville -- Mostly modern stuff, seems like the kind of place that thinks if it isn't an AR it is an old antique piece of junk. Sometimes has nice surplus. And if you want to count Jersey, my favorite is SARCO!
