wooly bugger

Can you live with 7? How about 5? Cryan has submitted bills with both of these as targets. Do I hear 3???

PA NICS has the strange bonus of being "instant." I've never been to Sarco, and I've never used PA NICS, so I'll let you know my experience.

About $50 + $5 NICS. Although, this was told to me by the same guy who told me there are no K-31s, so I hope I don't end up with a surprise. How much were they charging for the K-31s? I was going to order a Finn Mosin, but if there's a good chance I can pick up a K-31, maybe I'll hold off on that for now, so I don't have to try sneaking 3 new rifles past my wife when I get home. BTW, any interest in meeting at Easton when I pick up? Our friend BB expressed interest in taking a day off to go to the range, and I'll try to get our other colleague from PA to do the same. I just joined, so I'm eager to check it out.

Counter person. I ordered a Mosin from Aimsurplus to be shipped there, so I'l head out there in person whenever it arrives. I'll see with my own eyes then.

I have a CMP special grade which shoots pretty horribly. I'm considering sending mine off to national match armory, but it's quite expensive. Has anyone done it? Is it worth the money?

Strange. Why would they tell me they haven't seen them in over a year? Gun shop employees seem to come in all different stripes.

If you have Amazon Prime, you can borrow it free for your kindle

I just ordered a 91/30 and paid the extra $10. It's such a trivial amount that I figure it's worth it. I previously got an m44 and was very happy with the condition

Prevents rapid mag changed BTW, they're trying to ban that too

Hmmm. Mandating nonexistent technology. SCOTUS, incoming.

Where are you located? They're all over the state. Only problem is, you or someone in your party needs to have a hunting license to use it. I've never been checked. Still cheaper than a range membership. I'd be happy to take you to Clinton if you want to try it out. Pros: More casual environment.I don't think you're technically supposed to, but you can shoot "junk" targets like cans, golf balls, ammunition boxes, etc. They'll never let you do that at Range 14 or CR. Cons: More casual environment. You'll occasionally share the range with some people who could use a tough range master to enforce some basic safety rules. One last suggestion: Easton Fish and Game Association. $30/year. I just joined but haven't tried it out yet. Easton and CR are equidistant from my house but sometimes I'm in the Easton area, whereas I'm never near CR, so it has to be a dedicated trip.

If you just want to plink with .22, why not just a WMA?

Because in their minds you're the worst kind of criminal. By arming yourself, paying taxes, and otherwise being self-reliant, you've undermined the central tenet of progressive statism; that we owe our existence to our government, and not vice versa. This is a crime against the state, as opposed to the petty crimes against individuals you mention. Which do you think the state takes more seriously?

I like this ammo. I'm surprised it got only 4/5 stars. If I were still in ammo-buying mode, I'd keep a few things in my shopping cart, so when I pull the trigger, the $15 sh would have at least been spread out over several items.

Darn you all. Now I've gone and ordered the AIM hex Mosin AND an unissued Finn M39. I'll let you know how they turn out.

Where can I find one?

Looks like Aimsurplus has 3 types in stock: 1) round 2) hex 3) laminated Any opinions on which tend to be the best shooters? I know hex's are more collectible, but I'd guess that since they're older, they may be in worse shape.

Good point. That's what they did in Canada when registration became mandatory. Eventually, it was too much trouble so they just gave up. Part of the reason why no one's registering their MSRs in NY is that for those who do plan to comply, they're waiting for the very last minute in order to shred the system.

no

Just called. They said they haven't had any for a year :-(

And we wonder why there's a shortage.

If you're sane enough to request a military discharge on account of insanity, then you're not sufficiently insane to merit such a discharge.

What's going on here? 3 availability threads in one morning? Isn't there supposed to be a shortage on or something?

Laphroig. Whiskey related anectode: I ended up with a completely unexpected layover in Edinburgh. It is an incredibly beautiful city. I went on the whiskey tour and learned (and tasted) a lot. In my drunken stupor, I bought a couple of nice bottle and brought them back to the airport not having thought through that my baggage was already checked, and I couldn't carry on board. I ended up donating them to two nice ladies who tried to help me get them checked at the last minute. Moral of story: Don't drink and buy.
