Off Season Lets Talk Guns
Been a while since we had a guns n' ammo discussion.
Some of you are AR shooters Im sure. Im looking at a Colt 6920. Will be my first AR. Picked up a Glock this fall and really enjoy shooting it. Any feedback on that weapon? Anyone else been in a buy/sell/trade mood with hardware? Part 2: http://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/showthread.php?t=293623 Last edited by Bearcat; 07-28-2015 at 06:06 PM.. |

Heh. Wish it was that easy. I had three cheapie no name lowers laying around that I was not even sure of the quality. Picked them up for like $70 apiece like three or four years ago. These were made by a kind of fly by night outfit so I was not sure that all of the holes would even line up right. So I went lower shopping back in October and the only thing I could find in a decent brand was Stag. Got two more in case I ran into issues with the cheapies. Found out that the cheap forgings worked fine. Thats what those uppers I had to wait on went on. Kinda glad I got the extra lowers now. I think that the company that I ordered the uppers from kinda jacked me ayround. Internet ordered from them and like a month later went to a gunshow and their retail table had everything on it to fill my order. Asked them about it and "sorry" was the answer I got. Went home avnd waited another 5 weeks for my stuff. Do not think I will be ordering from them again.

Wooo Wooo....just got my C&R FFL in the mail today. Now if only there was anything in stock to get a discount on! :'( I'm amazed at the quick turn around by the government. 3 weeks and back in my hands!

Went to Cabela's today, straight to the ammo section. They were completely sold out of any .22 LR, even the more expensive match grade stuff. I can't find a bulk pack to save my life. The pistol ammo section was as bare as I've ever seen it. But they had a plethora of shotgun shells, more than I've ever seen them display.
They did have a few hundred 20-round boxes of Herter's 7.62x39 in stock, but it was $6.99 or $7.49 per box. Yikes! |

BTW after the anti's see this I expect legislation to be introduced in NY to ban 'assault fingers'. Clearly her rate of fire is WAY too high!(sadly this would get most kids in public school a suspension these days.....)

I just bought a Taurus 1911 and I like it but I've had some issues. The biggest being that the bolt will not stay open when the mag empties. Sometimes it does, but more often than not it doesn't. Research indicates that it is probably the mags that came with the gun. The other issue is, the first and only time I've taken it out to shoot, it was NOT accurate. Rounds went all over the damn place. I did clean it first as I was instructed on another forum, but it was not accurate at all. I'm sure I need to adjust the sites, but that doesn't explain the erratic results. I couldn't get a good pattern at 15 feet. I have shot a 1911 in the past and had great accuracy with it. I need to spend more time with the gun, but I did find that to be troubling. Other than that, it's a 1911. Fun as hell to shoot and it's just the coolest looking pistol ever. I just have to work out the kinks.

I'm torn between wanting to hoard ammo or waiting this madness out and seeing if the prices drop. |
