  1. From where? I am contemplating buying a keg of rifle powder or so.
  2. You can't fault the guy for not knowing his NJ gun laws. I'm sure a shocking number of people think that hollowpoints are illegal, you can't have a bayonet with your Mosin, etc. Even in NJ I'm sure there are FFLs that don't know their stuff. Also, unfortunately, I've found a lot of gun stores have smug attitudes about these things. I think I even saw a seller on here that wouldn't sell ARs or AR lowers to those under 21...
  3. Why could it not be? AFAIK you can duracoat anything. I wouldn't, but that is me.
  4. A good FFL would either tell you to do it yourself, or not charge you any extra fees..
  5. I should add that the cast and lubed bullets are sticky. Thanks for the insight
  6. I've shot a fair amount of my Grandfathers lead-cast reloads. I'm not entirely sure of his casting processes, lead mixtures, and such but I always found his lead reloads to be smelly/smoky/dirty. The plastic ammo boxes are permiated with the ammo stank, and I can always tell what brass had lead in it because it seems waxy almost. I have some of his bullets (which I haven't attempted to load), and some lube sticks. The cardboard with the sticks says it is a 50% mix of Alox 2138F and 50% pure yellow beeswax manufactured by Javelina. Is this an overly "clean" or "dirty" lube? I would be interested in casting if I could find something that shot clean. The bullets he cast are sticky to touch. There was no excessive leading, so it did do a good job shooting. Oddly enough, I shot some cheapo Magtech 38 LRN this week and it was impressively clean.
  7. My Mustang had an MSRP of $2,610.27 but I don't have the window sticker.
  8. Correct me if I am wrong, but installing a stock would violate NFA rules correct?
  9. 302w posted a topic in Shotguns
    I was shooting some clays on St. Patricks Day, and I noticed I couldn't eject shells quickly on occasion. I would have to stop and muscle the action open, and normally I can shoot doubles with the thing. I was using cheap Estate shells, and the problem was very intermittent. Does anyone have any issues with these? I am pretty good at keeping my guns clean. General contentious is to put some steel wool on a 12 gauge brush and run it in the chamber I usually shoot generic Federal, and sometimes Winchester. I don't trust Estate, they're French and all...
  10. Guard, like many colors today, looks fantastic when clean and dull when not waxed. VJF, not everyone wants to pay for a V8. A GT premium goes for about 37ish or more, and the OP wants the premium. Ford/GM/Fiat sold a ton of Mustangs/Camaros/Chargers to people who wanted a "muscle car" but weren't performance freaks. Most of the public can't tell the difference. I want the V8. You'll like the car. The ecoboost is a great engine. Good luck.
  11. I drive a lot of 2015s. If I get the job I'm looking for I would like to buy a 300A GT PP in competition orange. The premium is nice but too much money. Give or take 32k. Are you looking at a premium or base? What color? Also, look into an X-plan. What dealership? I am a huge fan of the 2015 Mustang. I've been looking for panel alignment issues and I can't find any. However, the one issue I have seen on every car from new Toyotas to Mercedes-Benz is orange peel in the paint. Ford included. I saw a DIB V6 with an orange peel hood last week.
  12. Yes... Only in Free America.
  13. Walmart has Tula for $5.35/box IIRC.
  14. eBay bans the sale of "Assault rifle" parts. You can list a "223 scope" but an "AR15 scope" will get flagged and taken down. Also, ebay has a strict 10 round limit. Sometimes I search around for the fun of it. I found this 223 10-round magazine for sale. It seems like a trap.
  15. Well, I think most people see the difference between Midwest PX and Cheaper Than Dirt... I don't think you had $1/round 5.56. I've been saying that I am going to stock up like no other this Summer. 2016 will be here before we know it, and the panic buying will begin. If I was smart I would build the leaning tower of Pmags at $10/Gen2 then resell them in November when they go for $50 on gunbroker. Talk about ROI.
  16. There's a slight ethical decision with reinforced mailboxes. I would feel kinda bad if someone killed themselves on it.
  17. Speaking of loading '54r, I found this youtube vid. Seems fun. Dangerous because you could probably pop a primer and get hot gas in your face or something along those lines, but fun.
  18. You will need a mailbox post the size of Gibraltar Rock to mess up a plow, but I imagine it would certainly be worth it.
  19. Why haven't you engineered some ridiculous mailbox post? I would think you would have an 8" concrete filled steel pipe for a mailbox post by now. I would have. Or maybe an I beam.
  20. http://www.yooperj.com/SKS-19.htm
  21. I'm new. Whats OTM? Other than match? Edit: I should stop asking stupid questions. Google told me open tip match. I am using 55 grain unknown manufacturer FMJ pills with cannelure
  22. 302w replied to illy's topic in General Discussion
    That was posted before. The original uploader took it down IIRC.
  23. Let me ask all of you this: For "blaster" plinking ammo, does it matter? I realize that there will be a change in pressure from case-to-case and such, but if I seat at 2.240" my range would probably be 2.237-2.247". I don't know what factory ammunition tolerance is, but 10 thousandths of an inch isn't huge at all. Plus, I'm over minimum length anyway so it shouldn't be a safety issue, IMHO. In fact, more incentive to load "blaster" ammo and "match" ammo for my bolt gun. And the general contentious is it is my bullets and/or cases, not my equipment, right? How would a Lee FCD work with my varying ammo? I don't want to crush cases. Thanks!
  24. Nice! I have a '53 Tula in similar shape to yours. Definitely a fun gun to shoot. Even more fun than my AR. Do you have a black bolt? Also, watch your finger if you look for the cleaning kit.
