So, in the 3 years I've been a gun owner, I've developed a bit of a collection. 3 rifles, 2 shotguns, 6 pistols, etc. I'm thinking of selling some of the guns I never really shoot/want: Kimber, Stag-1 (mod) upper, and even my Marlin to get the guns I desire. I feel bad spending all this extra cash on new stuff when I can get rid of old stuff I never use. I spoke to people about my Kimber, and they question the use in selling a "good shooter"... same with other stuff that I own. How do you guys decide what to sell, keep, etc? I don't want to amass stuff I never shoot... It takes away room in my gunsafe from stuff I want to buy/shoot. Plus, it's money in the bank. Any thoughts on another gun-run happening if Obama gets elected in 2012? If so, I can sell my extra stock then for more cash...

I searched for that, but couldn't find any links.

White Lithium Grease?

Nah man. Don't do it for those reasons. I can see people joining for the steady pay, or to get a new start on life. But the heroic/brotherhood stuff is just used to make the whole shibang more enticing to young folks. They don't know much better to realize that it's a bit of a sham when they get in.

Kimber had issues with external extractors, hence the move away from them in their latest generation.

Not to be a downer... but is this really what you want? I understand people's desire to go fight to 'defend' our country and protect 'freedom'... but I don't see what we're doing in Afghanistan or Iraq as doing either. I just feel most young folks get suckered into the machinations of the politicians in DC, than defending us over here. Just food for thought if you're ever over there wondering what the hell we're doing in shitholes like that.

This is true for their low-end brands. High-end items still receive excellent QC. Customer Service is TOP NOTCH. Back OT: I'm debating selling my Kimber TLE/RL II... I want to get a different 'beater' 1911, and could use the proceeds from the sale to fund my AK build.

Does a DMR need to goto a special school?

Is there an import stamp on it?

Hahaha I'd love to come back. You guys live closer to me than the range I goto in PA. Plus... FA fun is always fun. Next time I'll bring some melons, I promise!

I'm betting it was an import... Saw one today. SA52 I think? Garands exported to allies, then re-imported into the USA and re-barreled for .308...

Yes we did! Thanks Ed, and your friend Jeff too!!! I'll have to see about getting a few pics up from our little trip. Got some great video too.

Yeah... I was a little surprised when 2 of my 3 cards didn't run. I can understand some vendors avoiding AMEX or MasterCard... but having a Visa rejected was new to me.

One minor thing: it seems like most of my Visa CCs are not accepted. Is there a reason for that?

That muzzle brake is legal??

I hope so too. They really gave me the run around dude... I'd call every 2 weeks and they'd feed me the same line of BS about how the magazines are under construction and will take 2 weeks. I ordered in January and canceled in early March... I gave them a bunch of chances to rectify. I even complained that they shouldn't list an item as 'in stock', and then take over a month to try to deliver.

OHHHHHH!!! Do you have one? Can I put wood furniture on it?

I know about the PMAgs... I still have a fondness for the metal ones though... :-P

I tried to buy some 15/30 SS mags back in January, but they kept giving me the run around as to when they would be shipped. Has anyone tried ordering from them recently and gotten mags? If they continue to suck, I may try the new vendor in PA.

http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.aspx?Item=223902940 Is this NJ Legal? What are some guidelines re: muzzle brakes, thumbhole stocks, double-stacks, single stacks, and names?

Glock 21?

All it takes is one Ralphie shooting their eye out and that'll change.

It's easy to do when you get taxpayer dollars and are the jewels in the eyes of Trenton.
