302w

How did you get a non resident LTCF? You need one from your home state.

I wasn't around for Challenger, but IMHO Challenger wasn't a national tragedy like the others. It was sad, sure, but people stopped in their tracks and went home in 1941, 1963, and 2001. I've found it odd that Columbia had much less of an impact in society.

PMed

That is very true.

+1 for me. I have his grips on my 64-5 and I like them.

Enlighten me, what are SRS books?

I wouldn't be surprised if Glock or S&W don't get the contract. I would think a DA/SA with a safety would be preferable because strikers with no safety is too newfangled and "unsafe". M&P would definitely have the safety if awarded. Also, I've read that a bunch of aluminum frames have been broken by people being reckless with the M9. I would think plastic would be more of a deterrent, although I'm sure people said the same thing about the AR15 and broken frames aren't too common.

What stores in the Lehigh Valley? I go to Bethlehem from time to time. Sarco always has some obscure junk I need and I like looking. I've bought a good amount of A1 parts, a little bit of M1 stuff, and CLP.

Not to hate on Rugers, but those cast frames look so big and clunky compared to a forged frame. Also, "royal blue" isn't made with unicorn blood or anything. It is simply polishing the steel and bluing. Royal blue is extremely labor intensive and therefore not as economically viable as it used to be.

You have to shoot it at least once. The 586 is S&Ws Python. The Python was extremely popular and S&W shamelessly copied it. The mechanisms are a bit different though, as a S&W doesn't need to be tuned like a Python and could probably handle more abuse. I never messed with a Python, but I feel that Colt revolvers have a much different trigger than S&Ws. My K-frame, as well as my dads, both have a very consistent trigger pull. My dads Detective Special has almost a two stage, it is difficult to describe. I don't know what I like better. I do hate the Colt cylinder release.

Sarco is a cool place if you like old crap. Their store is a large building full of old crap. They also have good deals at gunshows too. Whats in Mt Pocono? The four PA gunstores I have been to are Dunks, Army/Navy in Whitehall, Sarco, and two different Walmarts. Edit: Is it the Route 940 gunshop? I love their new deal: ***DEAL OF THE DAY*** ***Anti-Looter Edition*** Romanian WASR AK-47 7.62 x 39.

I would check out airsoftnj.com if it is still active.

Buy it cheap and stack it deep! For reference, you could buy a 1903 in 1963 for $37 from the same ad where Oswald bought his Carcano. $37 in 63 is equivalent to $284 today. In 1991 you could buy an Eastern Blocs worth of SKS rifles for $100 a pop, which is $174 in modern cash. Those rifles are worth about $1000 and $400 today. Mags are my favorite. What used to sell for $14 sold like hotcakes at $50 after Newtown. At $10 now I could fill my parents house with Pmags, even build the leaning tower of Pmags in their yard so tall that the FAA yells at me, and I could still make a ton of profit reselling them next freak out.

The story goes is that my grandfather was just given this pistol belt one day because Uncle Sam just wanted to get rid of a bunch of crap and whoever was there got to pick through the pile. He was regular Army, then possibly Reserves, and eventually NG with 50th Armor (Jersey Blues!). I'm pretty sure he just gave it to my dad because he didn't want it, and I got it because it was again unwanted. I used it for airsoft games when I was 15, and an older guy pointed out it was experimental and offered to buy it from me. I can't seem to find anything other than it predates the M1956 webgear.

I kinda sorta hate the LEDs. If done in a minimalist setting they're okay, but they aren't as nice as a C9 or "warm" like standard mini lights. Don't even tell me that the LED C9 equivalents are good. I have regular colored LEDs on one of the trees in my house and they seem to have a projector effect too. I have a soft spot in my heart for colored bulbs on houses and blowmolds everywhere.

You can buy an AK for under $500 and a cheap AR for $600. You will never see prices lower than that.

Who tips their DPW workers? I don't.

You should buy a bolt action rifle and an AR lower. That way, you have an economical bolt action that shoots well and can slowly invest in an AR. I have an AR and my dad has an extremely nice 223 bolt action. I like that I can shoot golf balls on the cheap. Three boxes of ammo is nothing in an AR, yet an afternoons worth or more in the bolt action.

I googled it and it seems like a terrible idea. What sounds the worst is how steel and carbon fiber don't like to expand the same when heated. Try a pencil barrel.

Update: The extractor decided to stop working. I used a ton of brakleen and reoiled it, but it seems to not have helped. Here's a video. I will most likely buy a new ejector and spring from Ruger and just install it. I can't get the video to embed, sorry. http://s2.photobucket.com/user/SSOK/media/20141126_193726_zpsixmxo48h.mp4.html

That isn't an M16A1! Noob! I actually like the M16A1 length. It has a short LOP and is very lightweight with a pencil barrel. It is only a smidge longer than my Carbine.

I would call the detective. In my town, if I politely call I am able to drop off P2P paperwork, and renewals to the lady at the front desk. Picking up paperwork I need to be there with the detective.

Peaches in hooch tastes fantastic. Get a can of peaches, dump some sugar in, then fill the whole thing in a quart mason with moonshine/ethanol/everclear. You want to use 190ish proof stuff because it gets diluted in the peaches.

I googled "Glenn walking dead Firetruck" or something like that. My dad wants the stock and commented during the show that Glenn had his stock. I only searched for those words because he had it during this episode and "Glenn walking dead M4" didn't help. Thanks guys.

The problem fixed itself I believe. The gallon or so of CLP seems to worked whatever crud out, or freed the probably rusty spring. I haven't fired the rifle in some time, but I always used commercial brass ammo. The rifle now cleanly ejects brass most of the time now. I plan on buying a spring next time I make an order and putting it in. Thank you all for the advice. This is one of my favorite rifles to shoot. The stock is a dream, and we inherited it with a Harris bipod and a fantastic Leupold. I want one in .308, but I have a Rem 700 in .30-06 that I can build close enough.
