thats just damn funny, i don't care who you are. * yeah i'm an ar n00b. :mrgreen:

ammoman in berlin, nj has a 900rd case of yugo 8mm for $199. he wont ship inside nj but he'll cut you a small break if you pickup the goods.

i stopped in and didn't see a single round of ammo. i asked the clerk and he said, "its all right here", then pointed to some floor cabinets behind the counter. you couldn;t see any prices or tell what calibers and how much were of each. at least at the freehold store you can see whats in the cabinet, then bother some schmuck to let you carry the fishbowl.

me thinks you'd be stubbin toes pretty frequently if that were the case.

some sort of basic tools like a leatherman. i've used mine to adjust sights, tighten up loose scope mount screw and use a hammer along with a spent shell to drift a front sight amongst other things.

since we're talking sights, you might be better off with the K31 since the '11's are 300m minimum on the rear leaf whereas the K31 is much less. i tried shooting my 1911 long rifle at dix at my steel swinger at 200yds and while the sights were quite fine, there was too much holdunder for repeatable precision. If you do decide to use the 1911, AIM surprisingly has spare mags for $30.

I brought most of my family members including my mother to the pistol range at some point in time. The time that i had brought my mother, i educated her on proper safety and operation of the gun and then oversaw her while she got going. Shortly after beginning, i saw an acquaintance of mine show up at the range and begin chatting with him while standing behind her all the while. After a short while i look back in i noticed that she was happily changing mags shooting them up and changing targets all by herself without any help for me.

There is a new show called 3 gun nation that will start airing on the versus channel in the very near future.

200 total? you can get a tokarev from J&G or AIM for under 200 but shipping+transfer s going to put you near 250 out the door. fun guns and ammo is way cheaper than even 9mm.

no surgery, but i suffered a small lateral crack in the upper part of the humerous adjacent to where the spinatus attaches. Not severe enough to cast so I spent 6 weeks in a sling to immobilize until therapy began. The pain was pretty bad for a while since any attempt to move the shoulder tugged at the break causing extra pain in addition to the constant ache of the break itself. The dr also suspected some other minor soft tissue damage due to the nature of the injury but again, no other action was taken other than to keep in a sling. Because of all this discomfort, getting restful sleeping was a major problem for me. The lack of any mobility for that 6 weeks caused a lot of atrophy of strength and flexibility to the shoulder, bicep, tricep, forearm and back muscles. doing anything physical such as therapy would trigger quite a bit of pain and soreness since it was so weak. just when i had the static pain of the injury subsiding, the physical therapy wicks the pain factor up again and sleep went straight out the window. My only advice is that if they give you any stretches or exercises to do while you heal, definitely do them since loosing that mobility severely impacts your progress later. Good luck and feel better!

nice! i've always liked the non-traditional detailing kimber uses on some of thier pistols (ie serrations, color combos).

This gun is a prime candidate for one of the TG bull barrels. so much fine work deserves good barrel.

dude, you should get that thing!

Then your stock is filthy! Lol

i was just curious what sort of punishment it delivers this side of the buttstock. :mrgreen: i dunno what they're for... mostly turkey loads i think or maybe for those obscene bolt action scatter guns with 40" barrels that you can pick geese out of the sky with. When i first saw that it could take magnum shells, i thought, "hmmm, this one goes to eleven!" and that was a selling point for me too. i've previously only tried 2.75" shells and the store only had those and 3" for sale so i got some of both to compare. i have to say, 3" shells supply a noticeable increase in recoil and sound, so another half inch will probably be even more fun! 8-)

Scrap, searching aroung, I read accounts of others also lamenting about barrels costing more than the gun! That's just ridiculous. Have you ever put a 3.5" slug or buck through it?

The novas are pumps. Benelli semis are a big jump in price. This same style of gun in semi auto would cost about a grand more!

If you're looking for a more rugged alternative to the cable mount, you can bend some eye-bolts 90 degrees and they hold up to all the bullet splatter you can dish out all day long. You can even graze them and they still hold up, just keep a spare or two for good measure. I've been using my wideners plate now with my AR15 and my K31 and the bolts are holding up great. i suggest staking the nuts on the front side though as i found the splatter was gradually unwinding them even with locktite.

I really like these ghost ring sites. I've always had a little trouble with typical rudimentary scatter gun sites When shooting slugs so these are a piece of cake. I could have bought a mossy or870 for less butthey always skimp on the sights on the cheap guns.

$350 before T+NICS. Here's a better pic than my phone pic.

do you have optics on your mosin?

I was passing by Effingers last week and dropped in for the hell of it. Looking through the racks i spotted this little fellow on consignment. I had been wanting a gun like this for a while for HD and just messing around with but a tactical style 12ga with ghost sights was going to cost some coin, even from Mossberg, so i never followed through. When i saw this slick little beauty in like new condition, i had to pull the trigger. Effingers isn't exactly known for thier smoking deals so for what they were asking, i especially couldn't pass it up. I sent a few rounds of slugs through it today and am loving the ghost rings. The plethora of post Halloween pumpkin surplus can't come soon enough! :mrgreen:

Usually i can be found autocrossing, riding motorcycles on-road and off-road on weekends. recently i broke my arm and shoulder so my new hobbies are the couch and ice cream. :/ maybe in another month or two i can start back into it.

for sale in 3..2..1.. :mrgreen:
