Ship it to your FFL and ask him to hold it for a few months till you get permits?

A quick sweep with a magnet takes care of that pretty quickly.

Looks like Heritage guild has a 45c tactical for rent if you get desperate. http://www.heritageguild.com/Ranges/Rentals/Heckler-Koch.aspx

Where did you pick it up? New or used?

Precision oiler. https://www.amazon.com/General-Tools-589-Precision-Oiler/dp/B000KKHNU0 Bunch of other types if you search for pen oiler or needle oiler.

USAA if you qualify. Consistently gets top awards for customer service, though the 'perks' have dwindled over the years. Their car buying service also gives some of the best rates (not saying you can't do better on your own if willing for the hard haggle).

Bhunted beat me to it.

Perhaps he means those renewable dehumidifies that you plug in to dry out the desiccant media. I have one of these for a small safe and it works well. https://www.amazon.com/Improved-Eva-dry-333-Renewable-Dehumidifier/dp/B000H0XFCS

Thanks, might have to take you up on that offer sometime.

Thanks for the input and sorry for the diversion off topic. For me it's less about money as it is about the time. With the nearest range with more than 100 yards being well over an hour drive for me, it eats up the better part of a day just to get out. With a crazy work schedule and a young family I just don't seem to make the time. Will probably continue to dream a little more, but it will happen. I should probably try to get out to a local match or go with someone willing to show me the ropes before diving in head first.

I only dream about precision rifles and like to read articles and reviews. Anyone have opinions on the XLR Element? Weighs in under 4lb with butt stock, before you add accessories like the folding mechanism. Seems to have some nice features at a reasonable price.

Using catalyzed clear? Please make sure you have really good ventilation and proper respirator. That catalyzed stuff is petty nasty.

I think he means it's very had to find and looking for something more readily available.

Im sure other offer as well, but HP has printers with 'HP Wireless Direct' that allows a pc, phone or tablet to connect to it without a wifi network. http://www8.hp.com/us/en/m/campaigns/wireless-printing-center/wireless-direct.html

FYI, not in the photo linked, but believe these have a hole drilled in the end of the casing. If that matters.

No further ideas about neutralizing a live round beyond what's been suggest, but would a plated bullet alleviate the lead concerns? Probably not cost effective but there are some dummy rounds available that look like the real thing. http://www.rimfiresports.com/merchant.mv?Screen=PROD&Product_Code=22LR%20DUMMIES

I don't have a lever gun, but perhaps one of the Otis cleaning kits would be an option. Allows you to feed the cable from the breach and pull through brushes and clean patches each time.

Comes up as $339 now.

The 10 rd shorts, which I preferred, are readily available under $20. http://www.slickguns.com/search/apachesolr_search/022188143362?solrsort=sis_view_count%20desc Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

^This. Always recommend them as mine eats anything, mags are cheap and readily available and good aftermarket support. Just need to get over the less than easy breakdown procedure. Watch out, there's that nifty mag loader that enables you to burn through rounds at a record pace, so better have a good supply of .22.

Trying to convince the wife I need to attend. Have a few cases of clays and plenty of shells that I can bring/share if others are willing to share their shotguns (I'm without at the moment).

Regular price on amazon is $75 shipped so not a huge sale.

Federal target loads are on sale $5.48 this week. About the same price. Also have .223/.556 bogo, anyone know what pricing is?

For a red dot, I agree the bushnell is decent. I wasnt very accurate with it out past 50 yards (probably just me) and also went with a Nikon prostaff rimfire. I think I got it when nikon was having a rebate and paid around $100. Well worth it in my opinion.
