Screwball

Generally, if the firearm is changing hands in different states. Gunsmithing or repair work can go back to the owner directly. If you were shipping a firearm for a specific purpose (hunting, for example), you would be ok.

I had our mail lady leave this outside, in the rain... no plastic on it, either. Probably about $3,500 worth of gun there, as it was rebuilt and had the scope installed (was coming back from the scope installation). Was lucky that someone came home early, and got it out of the wet box. Didn't even get the required signature. Had FedEx gouge the frame on my .45 PX4, which looked like someone stuck a key into the side of the box. Really hate shipping things.

Howell/Monmouth brines... but did a piss poor job with any sort of cleanup this storm. County roads were done somewhat early. Town roads, the tire marks were what cleared up the roads. I was glad the picked up the leaves yesterday. Less of a mess to worry about.

Thanks... what I was wondering. Some stuff I'm looking for isn't going to be there until trade restrictions change.

I was going to go, but figured I could get a lot of more important stuff done on Sunday instead of driving out there. Really wanted to go and see the difference the results of the election made in regards to ammo pricing... but I'll go next year.

Smith & Wesson has been gone for some time now...

Double post, thanks to Tapatalk.

Definitely suggest that... makes the show look PG at times. Don't dive into the second one for some time.

If you don't like it, don't read my posts. Here is part of the first post in this thread... Comics are far past that point (actually, ending another conflict with people not yet shown in the show). My statement you got upset over was due to a response of a "what if" question I replied to. That was based off my opinion/thoughts on the show based what I've read. Sorry if you are upset over information that has been out for some time. Reading as far as I have, the show still interests me. There is more than who wins in a war...

Single point sling doesn't mean the weapon has to hang in front of you... put it on safe, go up and over your weak shoulder, and the firearm is out of the way (butt will be up by your head). If you want it real secure, have a short secure point up near the barrel, and the other interface on the back part of your vest/belt.

Keep a lookout on GunBroker and eBay. I've seen slides on both sites, and do think I've seen M57s on there before. I do remember seeing a bunch of M57 frames on GunBroker in the last year.

Don't have pictures, but my Ishapore 2A1 just gets in under the six month mark. [emoji41] Wanted to get into .308, and it went well with the M1A National Match I grabbed around that time. Other than that, have a Mosin Nagant PU sniper, Nagant 1895, Springfield 1873 Trapdoor Carbine (was refinished by some moron, with a cut-down rifle stock and trigger guard, but is a Custer-era gun), M1903 (rebuilt by DGR, and a Leatherwood scope to make a USMC sniper replica), Yugo M48A, Yugo M59/66A1, and a Yugo M57 Tokarev. The two handguns were picked up right after the Newtown shooting... at pre-panic prices with a spam can of ammo for each. [emoji41] The Nagant is definitely an investment when prices go even more crazy, but like it as a part of my collection... $110, with the hand select option was not in vain. My Garand is kind of in this group, as it is a Lithgow receiver, Danish VAR barrel, and a mix of PB and Springfield parts (Century build). Safe to shoot, and rebuilt by Shuff. Reproduction wise, I got a Century PW87 and an IAC 97 (actually in transit). I also got a Uberti Henry 1860 Steel framed rifle (in .45 Colt to match my New Vaquero), which is on its way. I had a Winchester 1897 made in the 1920s, which I didn't like as it had issues with the takedown system. With a gun as complex as a 97, rather get a new production. The Henry, real ones really can't be shot, and cost more than I can afford... so reproduction is the way to go.

Go .460... you can shoot .454 and .45 Colt out of it.

The black one he had on the wall? If so, I have his brother... picked it up with my 16.5" Tavor. [emoji106]

Not really a spoiler alert... as the books have been very different from the show. Some characters aren't present (Daryl), other characters are dead (Carol), and some are still around (Andrea). Rick lost his hand to the Governor, the baby died at the prison, and Tyreese was decapitated instead of Hershel. Also, the BobBQ was actually a DaleBQ. The comics are actually a little more graphic (Michonne torturing the Governor is a lot worse, and likely couldn't be portrayed on TV), and make some other things easier to understand. I read them as the Compendiums (as you say, phone book) are released... so there is A LOT of show to get up the the third one. And Negan is still around at the end of that... But the producers could decide that Negan is too bad, have Dwight kill him, take over... and you could still modify the story to keep going. Doubt it, considering Jeffery Dean Morgan is pretty damn good as him. If you want something you don't have any idea on... watch Fear The Walking Dead.

Would be very different storyline compared to the comics... Negan stays around for awhile, even after he loses the war.

Depends if it is considered adjustable or collapsible. They said it only moves like an inch. Of course, right after I buy a Tavor. [emoji107]

http://www.powderrivercartridge.com/trapdoor-pressure-4570-s/123.htm You can get some unique loads from these guys.

I just tossed Federal Target loads through it, but it is an action you need to become familiar with. Not a Marlin .30-30 or Henry .22... and since it only has the one opening (like an Ithaca 37), need to be assertive. Also, there are at least two generations of them. The one that Jeff Quinn (GunBlast) reviewed was the first one... with the issues using 2.75" shells.

Might not be as pretty, but the Century PW87 I picked up at the Oaks gun show is good to go. I'm considering sending the gun to CCR to clean up the finish with cera-plate... should slick up the action.

Not really that shiny. NP3 has a dull look... kind of like matte stainless. Rib is serrated, but didn't notice any issue with it under the office ceiling light. Just the two beads.

Just got my Ithaca back from Robar... Started as a Ducks Unlimited gun, which I bought as a donor to replace the stock on my dad's identical shotgun... which was cracked. Tossed on a Boyd's stock set, and had Rose Action Sports shorten the barrel, thread for Remington chokes, and add the beads. Robar did the NP3 Plus, and I added the Velcro for the shell cards. Really happy with how it came out.

Another thumbs up... Tom is my go-to gunsmith, now. [emoji106]

I prefer the SAR over the X95. Just feels more comfortable in regards to controls. I was considering the X95 for a little bit, since you can make it an actual pistol grip. The positives didn't outweigh the control differences. Just ordered a black 16.5" SAR through Steve at Monmouth Arms... can't wait to get it.

I did the same with my grandfather... just a Korean veteran. Also showed him my SR1911, and that struck a chord.
