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.. |

IDK...I ordered 7 because I wanted to have 10 total. Now I have 6 and am probably going to have to pay out the wazzu for a few more.

I'm still strying to run down a decent deal on some .22 rounds, but the minute they are listed they are gone, or the web page they are listed on goes boom bang crash. When I do find some at a great deal, I'm going to stock up.

EDIT: I may have answered my own question. I checked the Sig Sauer site and their 30rd mags are $28. And if you order two, they include a mag connector. They work with the M400, 516 and 556 platforms. That, combined with the fact that my 556 takes PMAGs fine, means that these mags could very well be an option for ARs. I'm going to order 5...that will bring me up to 6 Sig Sauer mags with 3 connectors. |

I need a reality check on 9mm ammo.
I've only been "aware" of 9mm prices since the bloat started. What was an acceptable price per round before all of this happened? Not that we'll ever get there, but I don't even know what a "deal" is anymore. |

Larry Potterfield - "Thanks a Million"
I've done a lot of business with MidwayUSA over the years and plan to do a lot more. I've only met Larry a couple times but he has alway seemed like the real deal, and this confirms it for me.

I wish I didn't have to pay sales tax buying from them. I'd use them a lot more.

I still have 250+ rounds so I'm in no rush so I ordered 1k from these people: http://www.precisiondelta.com/detail.php?sku=D124F9R It is quality reloaded ammo, in brass, for 24cpr. I you can wait 8-10 weeks for delivery, you aren't gonna beat the price. Should be another 4-6 weeks until mine ships. |

So I have $250 - $300 budgeted and I'm trying to decide between a few things:
1. A .22LR of some sort - preferably a Ruger 10/22 2. Some tactical upgrades for my Rem 870 (18.5" barrel, fold-over stock, etc). Right now it's plain vanilla with a 26" barrel. 3. Ammo...probably the 1K 9mm posted by pr just above. ...or maybe I should focus on buying things that could be outlawed soon? |

1. A .22lr is always a good weapon to have around. Are you dead sold on the Ruger 10/22? Perhaps just a personal preference but I would much rather have a much cheaper bolt action and spend less leaving me money for ammo or other toys.
Conversely, if you are thinking of a SHTF situation, you may want to take a look at the Henry AR-7. http://henryrepeating.com/rifle-survival-ar7.cfm 2. I would leave the shotty just as in. If anything, add a Buttstock shellholder w/pouch. Something like: http://www.amazon.com/Allen-Company-...s=shell+holder 3. Can't say anything against it because it was my idea. |
