The Armory

[Seabee1973]

I sold all of my 'tacticool' stuff to right wing whackos for 3x what I paid for it post-Sandy Hook.

I'm thinking of stopping the 401k, putting the money into weapons, and waiting for the next tragedy...will only work w/ a Dem in the WH, unfortunately...

Capitalizing on fear is one thing...on tragedy is another...dunno if it's ethical or not, but since neither Dems or Reps are putting forth any common sense legislature...I figure it's only a matter of time before something else happens...

Honestly think that it will happen no matter what pres we have in office though after having a previous dem in office prior to bush with military suffering in cut backs and then we get attacked when bush comes to office... just a matter of time when Obama is gone and the next president had to deal with a weakening military from cut backs and us retired vets getting shafted on our benefits.... it's just a matter of time....it's a ticking time bomb with all going on now

Lol, I'm seeing how much hell they can take. So far, 3000 rounds through my glock 17, 1000 through my piston AR15 and my M&P .45 without cleaning or re-oiling. No malfunctions so far. But the cheap ammo is not accurate at all. I zero my eotech with federal at 150 yards with the magnifier. Then tried hit a target at 100 yards with wolf and missed everytime.

Wolf isn't that bad. I don't shoot factory ammo much, but it'll do 4-5" at 100, even in my Arsenal.

Burns up barrels fast though. If you're putting a lot of rounds through your AR, expect to swap barrels every 5K or so if you care to hit what you're shooting at. I've seen them start keyholing as soon as that, and normally by ~7K latest.

i shoot the cheap stuff through mine too. if i ever wear out the barrel, i'll just get new uppers and sell my old ones.

Nothing but my personal handloads through my M1As and PMC 62gr brass case or Federal American Eagle through my ARs. My GI model 1911 will eat anything but my Kimber only gets brass case Federal or Winchester. Carry Hornady Critical Duty in my Kimber and my XdM. Shoot those through my carry weapons at least once a year to verify operability.

Anyone have any NFA items?

Anyone have any NFA items?

2 suppressors with 2 more on the way, 2 SBR's w/10.5' barrels.

I have some pics in this thread on first few pages.

Evo - what kind of piston AR do you shoot?

Just added to my armory.... another Beretta, ARX100 5.56 for now, waiting for the .308 and/or the 300 blackout barrels

Here's my Tavor I picked up a couple weeks back.

It's in California configuration while I am here, but I have the other parts inbound as well as optics. Now I just need to decide on the trigger I want to put in it.

O.K. folks. start stocking up on 556/223 because the bureau of ATFB is considering re-classifying this round as armour piercing which would give them the ability to restrict its sale. There is a public comment period which lasts until mid March and then a deliberation period and then the new guidelines will be issued. Another ASSULT on our rights by a non elected agency. What a country.

It's only for the M855 green tip round, because it has a steel core it's "armor piercing" and they're trying to reclassify it. I have a bunch but you can still find it for .50 / rd which is still too high but not the worst I've seen it.

In other words, nato 5.56

No, just M855. M193 is a lead core.

I'm stocked up on both and reload them, but to be honest M193 is more accurate than M855.... but M855 will cut through steel targets nicely.

 

[Asharus]

and i was thinking about selling some of mine since i have too much. i guess i'll be hanging on to it.

I have a ton of surplus M855 because the local ranges don't allow us to use it. I go through my M193 stock fairly quick and it's what I enjoy using most of the time anyway. The potential reclassification doesn't worry me.
