We went to bass prop shop today and I found .38 spl umc for 17.99 Nosler 140gr 7mm-08 bullets for 17.99 Remington 00 Buck for 5.99 They didn't have 7mm-08 ammo No RCBS Neck sizing dies for above mentioned No one around to help. We found one guy who knew absolutely NOTHING But I did walk away with stuff I needed so not too bad. M

Regardless of how much they are improving quality, their customer service still SUCKS!!! You won't ever find me buying a Taurus. And thanks Dan, maybe I will buy that gun, I'll still be a better shot

Ok guys, whats the general opinion on carry with adjustable sights. Don't do it, or is it not that big of a deal???? I'm possibly looking at a DW Marksman which was made for competive shooting but I would also double it as a carry but it does have adjustable sights. Whats everyones opinion???

No way Mark. Your one of us dude. If you want I'll even drive LOL I can't wait, he said you can get some really good deals.

Yup, msg Eric and he'll give you the specifics. Its like a 2 hour drive from his house so probably like 3 from ours. But he said its definitely worth it!!

Ick, the only pistol I will buy that is black will be an XD and thats it. I like my stianless YUM

Probably after the 9th Mark. I'm going to take a ride out to USNmar's house to go to an auction and he's going to give my Mosin a once over before I shoot it. So lets plan for that following weekend. I hope I can pickup atleast two more milsurps at the auction, that'd make me happy.

Yes you make me want to scream!!!!!! It's like torture just thinking about you taking that beautiful stainless gun and destroying it And Troy no way in hell am I going to sell that 686. It's been on a must have so its not going anywhere. I just might have to wait until I get more cash and get a DW or just look at another version of a 1911

That Guardian gun has an alloy frame. It makes sense if it's a carry gun I guess, but the full steel frame certainly cuts down on perceived recoil. You know, I know this is going to sound trivial, but I HATE!!!!!! black pistols with a passion. I held out for a 686 instead of a 586 just because I wanted to have the stainless. The only gun that I'm looking at buying now if I got with a 2010 model will be the Hertiage-45. It's 3/4's of an inch bigger than a CBOB and doesn't have the bobtail on the bottom. But supposedly you can get it done if you REALLY have to. But I doubt I'll ever go there. From what I've heard and read, it's not too hard to carry a full size 1911 and for the amount that I'm going to be carrying really doesn't justify the CBOB. So to have a fullsize to target practice with would probably be more sensible. M

Probably my shotgun right now. It seems like no matter what we do at the Ridge, it always leads to some clay bird shooting. Nothing better than watching stuff blow up.

Wow John, that thing looks AMAZING!!! I can't wait to clean up mine. I hope it comes out that good!!!

I will read this later as I'm on my way out.

John you are more than welcome to shoot it. Help yourself to Tim's ammo, I don't mind Just don't let Tiny shoot it, he's got too quick of a trigger finger HAHAH

What did you get Tim? Moisin? Dragunov Sniper? MVT40? Regular ole round receiver Mosin for Timbo

I know, I so wish I had the money right now to do it. But I won't have it until after I get my tax return and I have a feeling that the 09's will be long gone. I guess I'm just going to have to try my luck and wait until I get my return and then go shopping. I wasn't going to look at the S&W pro series that Joe doesn't stop talking about, but now I might have to.

So I haven't been on the 1911forums lately so since everyone else is sleeping I was bored decided to catch up on some reading. Turns out my fabled Dan Wesson company is making major changes for 2010 and a lot of I'm not happy about. The gun I wanted to buy they have discontinued which was the CBOB!! They replaced it with a gun called the guardian which is now a black finished gun and its about 400 dollars more expensive. They also raised the price on the other gun I was looking at which was the Heritage by about 400 dollars as well. A quick trip to GB and low and behold these retards think they can now raise the price by 50-100 dollars due to these changes for the same gun they had a month ago. So right now if you can find an 09 CBOB on GB its going for 999.00 with no option for a credit card. The new 2010 CBOB will probably be on GB for about 1200-1500 dollars. I'm not paying that! My goal was to take my tax return and pickup my 1911 finally but instead I might be leaning towards the XD with the trigger job. Not a happy camper tonight. I understand raising prices, but the abrupt price increase along with discontinuing their most popular gun just seems like a silly / stupid move on DW's part. M

Nope Tim gets first dibs dopey But I'm sure he'd take the 686 first HAHAH

Duhhhhh this is New Jersey Gun's & Food!!!!

I almost forgot about that one, the grinding wheel took care of it. Only a little flat spot, but it is a shiny flat spot :mrgreen: You put a flat spot on my beautiful stainless! Joe I'm blamming you dammit! You can't preach to Tim when he's working on one of my guns. I think you should replace my 686 with your 686 pro now since I have a flat spot!!!

You won't find one. I just ate tons of wings and lots of beer. I think I'm one step away from a coma.

well yes im lazy every week but this week im super duper lazy

Yes John it sure does. But .357 is more expensive and well I'm cheap so I'm looking for cheaper ammo. Mark I might have to, but if it comes to that I might go back to Dicks and get the UMC for 19 bucks a box. Tomorrow is ammo looking day so hopefully I find something.

I think I'm going to go Missouri, I just havn't had a chance to call yet. I'm being a bum this week lol

My Mosin will be cosmo free. The metal will definitely be cosmo free, and come summer, that stock is going to sit outside for a WHILE

I only have 5k primers, a 4lb jug of 231 and no bullets. HMPF I see a problem. I do plan on ordering another 5k pistol next time I see them come in though
