Dude, I'm shooting 60 y/o surplus ammo, its pretty much inevitable. The only question is how nasty will that SOB lock up on me! LOL

Sweet, bring it on! I just got a dot for my carbine so maybe i can pick up the pace a little bit.

Bump! Buy Avi's kit and buy my mags!

I'm really don't do very much rifle shooting as i've not been a member of a proper rifle range for several years so i'm selling this barely used spotting scope. The scope is in like new condition and includes everything it originally came with. $75 Specifications for Barska 20-60 x 60 Blackhawk Spotting Scopes: Magnification: 20-60x Objective Lens Diameter: 60mm Prism System: Porro Optical Coating: Multi Coated Weatherproof: Water Proof / Fogproof Field of View: 20x - 91 ft @ 1000 yds; 60x - 45 ft @ 1000 yds Close Focus Distance: 23 ft Exit Pupil: 20x - 3 mm; 60x - 1 mm Eye Relief: 20x - 18mm; 60x - 15mm Extensible Sun Shade: Yes Length: 12 inch Weight (w/o tripod): 8 lb Tripod: Panhead Lever Features of Barska 20-60x60mm Black-Hawk Zoom Spotting Scope: Multi-coated optics Massive objective lens Complete waterproof and fogproof protection Glare-reducing sunshade Rubber armor Ergonomic design Convenient and good portability Ideal for all-weather conditions Package Contents: Barska 20-60x60 Blackhawk Waterproof Spotting Scope Tripod Soft Carrying Case Premium Hard Case

Is the event definitely on? If so, I'm in. the last one was a helluva lot of fun.

Damn! Thats some money making right there! Bet u wish you had a stack of those. lol

Oh yeah? Ask alec and Mike about the last knockdown steel match. lol

Yea, totally edited in the sound and flash. If you listen to each shot, you can hear only 1 of 2 distinct gunshot sounds for every pistol shot. lol

Bump, mags still available.

.223 and 5.56 for sure.

Well, can you provide some pricing tiers so we have an idea of potential cost?

If you have a standard flat top or carry handle upper, get a cheap clamshell style online somewhere.

Which style do u want? DPMS, Spikes or the Brownells kind?

Yea, for a 2-3" protrusion you're probably right, but it will take a lot of continual muzzle blast, eroding the finish and possibly the tube itself. How do you size yours?

Yes, i've done that before, its fine. Be generic in your explanation and basically reiterate one of the sample reasons why you are applying (i am a collector, blah blah blah) and they will rubber stamp it. If you say you just dont want to wait the 30 days, you'll likely get denied. ITs more of a procedural deterrant so they're not scrutinizing and evaluating your rationale from a qualitative standpoint. Also, the exemption apps are taking upwards of a month to process so sometimes for only 2 pistols, you might as well wait the normal 30 day period unless the circumstances dictate you need it sooner.

Its 'CQB' style!

Glenn, can you help me with my AK? The stock is a little rough on the shoulder and the 'Russian Red' is getting a bit worn.

I think you can get a close approximation by making a super concentrated jello/gelatin solution. Ive seen recipes for the ratios online.

Fully laden, that thing has got to add some serious heft to the end of the shotgun!

I use the hogue wraparounds but then i have big bananahands so i like them.

Not always. For a +2, no, but for a +5 yes. Somewhere in between is the but it depends on some other things. The manufacturer will generally give you guideline of when a clamp is needed. Also, if you are going to hang anything from the extension (like an accessory mount), you may want a clamp even for the smaller extensions for added support but then there often isn't much room for a clam and a mount, however, some clamps can have a built in rail to double the functionality.

Lol, you're right. total brain fart on my end. I was thinking min legal barrel len was ~16 inches like rifles. Not so with scatterguns. hehe

Not my best day either. Oh well, its one of the most fun matches there is around these parts; i just wish they would do it more often. Rich always has it up by the same evening. Makes most other events seem lazy, especially considering Rich has to enter them all in manually from paper score sheets!

Tony, are you also making the version with the center 2x4 holder that some folks were interested in? I'm looking for something to use as a stand/support for shooting steel plates at CJ on the rifle range but not sure what i need to cobble such a contraption together. The center post seems like a robust way to support it but i suspect it will take hits and schrapnel over time. Would these stands be able to support an ar500 plate and take hits without toppling over or would it need some additional anchoring or support?

Awesome job on bringing out the figure in that seemingly drab wood. The burl and striping looks quite dynamic. Looks like you just made a pair of safe queens! lol
