SOLD OUT .... That sucks I was gonna get it!

anyone order from IceMonkey before? IT hasn't given us anything but the initial email confirmation and it says "Processing" for the last 3 days.

Yeah I am also wondering what do you sell? My old man grew up down the shore near there, I am sure I can squeeze something out of him by telling him I'm taking him to an army navy store near his old stomping grounds with a 30% off all purchases coupon.

I love Nikon... For you maybe look at the Nikon M-308, M for Monarch, 308 for specifically designed for the AR-10 308 round platform. I think its a 4-16x50? or something like that. They have a large selection of Monarch you just have to look at what specific desires you have. I put a Monarch on my .308 Bolt action and am absolutely ecstatic, its like getting $1000 quality for $500 and so on.

To reply to both the two above me, The Ruger Scout is a 'scout' rifle, the mount for the scope is forward and the rifle is not designed as a traditional bolt action 'sniper rifle' or 'hunting rifle' etc. You would need a special scope with the eye relief long enough to take advantage of its forward mount. Further, by being a 'scout rifle' build with a 16.5 or 18" bbl, you are not really set up for long distance /high velocity shooting its more of a combat shooter bolt action for medium range? I don't know I just don't see the point, other than it being Jeff Coopers baby. I have the Remington 700 AAC-SD. I will admit fully I did not go looking for it and say 'I need the upgraded package tactical Remington' I would have been happy with a SPS Tactical too. But it is what they had, and further they had more than one so it was completely brand new in the wrapping/box etc. and I was happy about it. It's really nice , great looking stock, comes with a Hogue recoil pad which is supposed to be a copy of commercial one, it has the threaded muzzle so I can put a muzzle brake or flash hider on it (Am looking at an AAC Combination muzzle brake/flash hider, the big AAC muzzle brakes are like 200 and I hear loud as all get out) and it also has 1:10 rifling rather than 1:12 on the 20" heavy barrel. To be honest I love the rifle. I put a Nikon Monarch 5-20x44 SF BDC on it, and I guess it's not the sexiest scope... but I got an incredible deal and it was a conscious decision , I was also looking at $1200 Leupold and Zeiss's , but I liked the Nikon better and it allowed me to buy ammo, accessories etc. Like the $110 Harris S-BRM bipod, Viking Tactical padded sling, heavy duty 1 1/4" swivels, and the muzzle device has been back ordered for a long long time. Plus a decent amount of high high quality .308 so , I feel like my package is not only looking great it operates/is great. I looked at their $1300 Kimber and considered a 700P or LTR etc. but for me and my uses and such, I feel like I have a tremendous package that can compete with a lot of peoples big boys, at a very reasonable price, and i have plenty of room for upgrading etc. When I finally just buy the stock upgrade etc. I will be even happier with the look and feel etc. But AAC-SD is a highly highly recommended rifle imho.

Just wanted to say thanks, I just ordered 3 of them. If you Google "Icemonkey promotion codes" you can get to Retailmenot and get the free shipping which just worked for me. They did charge me $4.20 in sales tax but free shipping. Thanks again! Me and my father both have new Streamlight SL-20LP full size flashlights which are amazing but are bigger sized, when walking the dog you don't always need or want a flashlight which requires its own full time hand and is larger etc. Amazing brightness and rechargeability etc but still hefty. We were just debating new Streamlight Stinger LED Poly purchases, which are like $100 each. We have an older metal Streamlight Stinger my old man used on duty but its getting older etc. These flashlights are PERFECT in conjunction with the SL-20LP full size premium ones, 3 for $60 bucks is a lot better than one for $100 IMHO and pretty nifty specs. We shall see IGuess, thank yo much.

One of the things I really liked about the Nikon Monarch I got was it came with a sunshade *and* flip-up caps (In addition to two styles of target turrets you can add and even a ex. large microfiber cloth) ... it really makes it nice when you see they add that stuff to the box and you open it and get those extras you might have to buy otherwise. I'm sure there are much higher quality cover-caps but the included are fine with me to be honest. Anyway congrats again.

Very nice looks like a very similar picture to my newer R700 SPSTac AAC-SD .308 . If he has the same stock as me which I am pretty sure it does , it's a Hogue OverMolded. THere are two versions, the one Remington uses which is advertised as having "aluminum pillars" - there is a MUCH More expensive version that is advertised as "full length aluminum bedding block" but as we have discussed several times and I have made my position quite clear, at that price I will buy a $530-ish McMillan GPH and a ~$200 gunsmith installation/bedding , or the $700-ish AICS chassis stock, rather than a top of the line Hogue, but some people just love the rubber overmolding (which I admit is very nice on the hands). Anyway congrats looks nice bro.

I go to the one in Bristol all the time, the weekend before this one, *the entire case* was sold out of normal ammo calibers. *Not a single box of 9mm* - Some .40s that I hadn't any interest in , but they did have assorted .40s. NO .308 at all except the most expensive, PDX-1. No 7.62x39mm , NOT A BOX of .22LR in ANY Flavor. I got hosed , THE SAME FAT GUY that is there *EVERY TIME* I go there and always has disrespectful comments and poor service was there, he refuses to let you pick up your ammo off the shelf, AND ALWAYS GIVES ME THE WRONG STUFF. Then he says something that will p*$*# me off and I somehow EVERY TIME not triple check my stuff, and get bamboozled. This last time I bought 7 value packs of 00 Buck Winchester Super-X , 15 rounds for a good price like $11 or so. EXCEPT THE DUDE FAILED TO MENTION I GOT 3" magnums. Now I know its my fault I didnt check. I know this so I accept it. But it still 48*#*#*@*@*;s me off. Anyway the case was *EMPTY* and according to $*#*tboy they had no absolutely none 9mm, .22LR, .308 , 762Soviet nothing . I bought 12 gauge 3" 00Buck and a box of PDX1 and that was it.

Yeah exactly I had heard it was Cerakote. I mean I would love just plain parkerizing on mine, but exotic would be great, Cerakote would be amazing. I have emailed Wilson Combat twice about getting mine upgraded but not heard back yet.

This is a handgun I saw the ad for and immediately said, I want this very very much. One of the reasons I never really moved on getting a PPK is because I don't want the weird caliber , and .380 is not exactly moving it for me personally. Maybe if the Glock .380 was here and I had one, I guess, I don't know. But the PPK/S in .22LR with a 10 round magazine! I seriously seriously want one of these. The Shiny silver one is beautiful . The blued one is great but I'd do the silver one. James Bond here we come! Bond, Scrappy Bond. http://www.thefirearmblog.com/blog/2013/01/11/walther-ppks-in-22-lr/

I will probably go out (or would have if this madness never happened) and buy a M590A1 if/when the Magpul Mossberg furniture comes out. There is one M590A1 I particuarly want and have trouble finding so I never got it, and I got the 870 Tactical and Magpul'd it myself. The 870 Magpul edition is very very nice, and I heard it had a special finish, if so that is worth it totally IMHO, my finish sucks . Also I did not realize you had a 6 round tube rather than a 4 + 2 setup, very nice. \

its called an F2 Illustrator. It was an old classic, was one of the first famous autoloading guns, "semi automatic' was $200 when all the guns were $100. I got it because while i initially bought a junky gun- the star of our wrestling team when Iwas a freshman, he was a Junior, he had an F2 Illustrator and I wanted to be like him and hang with him etc. so I had to get one. Now shortly after I got it, the popular Spyder and AutoCockers/Mini Cockers and even Tippmmann's took over but I had the classic F2 Illustrator. I got two tanks, a case, etc, spare parts, but as I have said, its been since like 96 maybe since I used it, if it didn't work I woudn't remember how to mess with it.

I could not agree more- this guy thinks he's a world famous most important person. IF we just let him go snd ignore him, he would fade away. But we give him all he wants, FOR FREE. Publicity.

To be honest I actually considered it too, I have an old Crosman air-rifle that was cream of the crop when I turned like 13 , shot 755 fps and had bb capacity and single shot pellet capability... but i have not touched it in 15 years probably. Also have a paintball gone that hasn't been touched in 12 or so years. I thought, 250 + 250 = 500, theres an Aimpoint Pro and mount for the new S-12 ... but then i saw it was 25 for pellet guns and who knows if they will take the Paint ball gun as (OTHER Guns) ... so its not even worth it to me, for 25 bucks I'd just keep it on general principle... 25 bucks isnt even a box of .308 for my Remington 700.

I went to college in Altoona @ Penn State, and we took the turnpike out west. I don't know the exits now because sometime during my second or third year they redid the numbers and I never cared to learn them, but somewhere like 2.5 hours out from Langhorne area, past Harrisburg and coming up closer to exit 11 which was Bedford and where I got off to take 220 Into Altoona, there was supposedly a big country area range. I believe it has a .50 cal option too. And I am sure I've heard it talked about before on forums , they 're been posts about the 50 cal range with a 1000yd? lane or so out western PA. I know where my old man's campground spot is in Hamburg near Cabelas there is a range on a mountain, the guy seemed really nice, and it supposed to be a few hundred I believe. IF that helps.

While I was thinking I might be in, I just can't do Romanian. What I wish I bought- and as I was saying at one time, in late October I decided it was time for a new toy, in November I bought- It came down to one of two things- a new top quality AK build , which I would be accessorizing with a top optic , 10-15 new magazines, etc. Or instead of this SHTF/Fighting rifle, my other choice was a bolt action 'tactical style' rifle for a sniper rifle build. And I went that route. For better or for worse, I decided to go bolt action rifle, and went pretty into it with a lot of enthusiasm and of course money. BUT- Atlantic Firearms had two Vepr rifles, one $1099 one $1199, both were AMAZING ... one was all evil tactical 'blacktical' with synthetic hi quality black furniture ,the other was a BEAUTIFUL Red wood. Normally I don't go for wood but it was amazingly nice IMHO. Bright and subdued in the same light. I loved the thicker AK-74 muzzle brake and solid looks, I could not decide on either. I wanted both and came extremely close on night to buy both but realized I'd have trouble justifying the price for both plus two optics and magazines etc. So I waited, didn't get them , and went rifle. But the red wood Vepr was on Atlantic's website for a long time after, apparently the black sold really really quickly, the red wood did not... and I went back last week to just go ahead toss the paper up and buy it, and it was gone. Now I think I will concentrate on mags, ammo, optics, and accessorizes on any and all firearms I do have/we as a family have instead... I have a great setup , and want to just make everything perfect instead of running out and grabbing what I can just to grab it.

Yeah I think its basically a no-go for all intents and purposes...the Bushmaster Carbon one is often touted as NJ legal but I think it would be said it violates the spirit of the law and I can see NJ's finest making you a guest of their hotels based on it. I have got out of 5.56 and sold my AR and mags back in September (I know I know, if I only knew. But hey. What can you do right? No complaining I will just enjoy the awesome firearms i have now other than the AR etc.) and when I was still in, and was thinking I wanted to go all in on 5.56 and collect ARs, I wanted a SIG AR Pistol real bad. I thought it could make an ExCELLENT PDW type weapon ... since we can't have any SBR type weapons (Which is a real dream of mine to be honest) I thought, an AR Pistol , with some creative accessorizing of the furniture and sights, and a stock-area-sling swivel , you could carry it on a single point Magpul MS-type sling ,and discreetly have a ton of firepower come SHTF. When you think about it, having a powerful small package of a good SIG 516 type AR-P, say you have 30rds of decent expanding type ammo in it, and maybe exrta mag in your pockets etc, and carried on a sling with a jacket over top, you would be extremely well armed come SHTF etc. Now I am in full awareness, this isn't allowed around here nor is any SHTF situation like that ever going to happen- but I like to come up with plans because thinking is both Free of charge and keeps you sharp, keeps your brain exercised,- and of course if and when it comes down to it, Chance Favors the Prepared Mind.

those look pretty standard to me? no? I looked at that page two years ago when they had advertised WASR -10 single stack mags for the PAP, I remember now, because I called and said I wanted them for my Dad for Christmas presents etc. how I got him the PAP also etc. etc. and the guy said Okay call me on monday and I will have some for you, and I said ,yeah but your website says you have some now, he said oh we really don't , but I am getting a shipment call me up, well they never got anymore, and then shortly after people on various forums started bragging how they got their WASR10 mags for the PAP and they were set but no one else would ever get any etc cause the guy said they was all sold out. However they are listed as more expensive than the brand new factory mags, granted its metal but its milsurp eastern european metal, I'll take lesser expensive brand new factory mags thank you. Imma check that out thanks.

http://archives.gunsandammo.com/content/tap-power I thought this was a very good thing to read especially regarding the shotgun ammo.

Hornady TAP FPD 00 BUCK is in my M930SPX , 870 Tactical, and Saiga 12. It is absolutely top of the line ammo, flawless in manufacture and performance, patterns extremely well for me and has never had a single functional issue in my shotguns, although nothing has either. I have some Winchester PDX-1 handy just in case, which is a 1oz slug surrounded by 3 00 Buck pellets.. I don't consider this suitable for HD because I would never fire a slug inside the house unless it was WWIII/absolutely invaded my house by a platoon of zombies. But I do keep it for emergency bear defense, if another animal bear etc. got after my dog outside ,etc. short of that, basic 00 Buck will work if you have it... 00 Buck is home defense ammo IMHO, the best and the only choice. Hornady TAP FPD is the best 00 Buck for defending my house IMHO. (TAP FPD = Tactical Applications/Police - For Personal Defense).

if I can do factory mags for $30 would anyone want ? I might be able to do this but I have to buy alot therefore sell them to everyone here and I jsut don't really wanna get stuckl

I am serious, I contacted Zastava directly, the email went to their president etc. I explained I wanted really bad the wooden furniture for my police captain Dad, I bought two PAPs and one was a 60th bday present, it was important to him- the president had his person sent me back an email telling me how thoughtful my compliments on their products and how happy they were to hear from a fan and customer in NJ etc. And not to worry they'd make arrangements to send me a wooden thumhole stock and forend set on them, soon enough. In a few weeks you'll get another email from us to ask your details for sendingit to you. Never heard from them again, never responded again over the next 3 years and 3-6 emails in that time. SUCKS because they REALLY ARE about the nicest AK furniture you can find , it makes it a great rifle to own, just a classic RIFLE , rather than a beater AK with wood.

I am Central Jersey too so if someone was doing a Central Jersey run I would be interested in taking advantage if possible. (Not begging but if someone said like "HeyI got a big truck/SUV and I am going up no problems, I'll pick up your stuff etc." I would be interested. HAS anyone thought about Walmart? PA Walmart where I shop for everyrhing but of course never ammo sells Federal 7 1/2 100rd value packs for $23.97 regular price and occassionally sales, maybe they would do us a pallet or something along the lines?

a Single Stack 9mm Glock is basically the most sought after thing they refuse to do, like a Glock carbine (anyone remember the Glock 1911 from last year or two years ago, the best photoshop job in history?)
