stopped by the pawnshop on the way home yesterday and found a remington 890 express youth 20 ga mag, wood stock in very nice shape. i couldnt turn it down. with tax and all it was $160. it has the 20 inch barrel, and the youth stock, but it still fits me nicely (6', 200lb). im thinking of keeping it behind the seat in my ranger as a truck gun. 0 -
Well I just picked up another good one at my favorite local gun shop. Anyone know what these are selling for now days? 
I found a Thompson 1927a3 that was made in 1980 based on serial number. This thing was very dirty so I was worried about it running. Dealer ran a mag thought it out in the bullet trap. I took it home and fired a mag and could not figure out why I could not hit anything.
I took it home and started cleaning it up since it was so dirty. I have not noticed that the
Cutts was plugged up. Well 2 of the slots were completely plugged and had a cone shape in the direction of bullet travel. I pulled the compensator which was so plugged that I am shocked the bullets were actually making it through. With a chisel and hammer I went to town on the lead build up. Of the lead I could recover I got 275 grs, I am guessing there was closer to 300 grs total.
The only real problem with this gun is the finish on the bbl is wearing off. It is not scratched, or flaking but is just discolored for some reason. This gun is very light and I am guessing most of it is made of aluminum. Is there any good way to fix this. I am not sure if I want to refinish this gun since only about 4500 were ever made.0 -
I could not send it away,
they follow you home, what are you
going to do turn them away?

Since we are showing pictures of our bikes I thought I would share one of my new toy. I found it on Craigslist. I was very underpriced. I've been "between bikes" for too long. Kept thinking my next one would be a Harley, but what the heck. I'll ride this cheap one until I finally get that Harley. 0 -
Just picked up my latest purchase. I had one of the original Millennium PT140s. Loved the size...but it shot low to the point of aim and the trigger wasn't all that great. This is a Pro model. The grip is a little smaller but other than that, I think I will like it. The seller was a competitive shooter and was actually nice enough to shot and email me a target when I expressed concern over the point of aim. Of course the day I pick it up I get the Ruger newsletter unveiling their SR40[^]
Just realized I didn't put the link in...duh!

This is my step daughter with my newest toy.
Savage 110, 22-250. Older rifle but apparently still shoots well. Two shots touching at 50 yards. I didn't have much time and the snow was over three feet deep at the range. I had to walk over 100 yards through it just to get to the shooting house. Once there, I REALLY didn't feel like walking back and forth to the 100 yard berm checking targets. So, I just settled for 1/2" low at 50 yards for now. I'll check the ballistics program to see where that puts me out farther.
I couldn't stand for the rifle to just sit there, staring at me, wanting to know when I was taking it out.
All in all, a fun way to spend a payed day off![:D]

The camera in the second pic is linked by phone to the gate. You release the gate when you see the hogs in the pen.0 -
Found a new toy today. The local smith brought out a Remington XP100R in .223 that had been made into a rifle. It has a synthetic stock, 2 inch muzzle brake, and a very nice trigger in it. Also on the shelf in the "used" section found a nice weaver 4X16X42. All in all, I am looking forward to going to the range tomorrow.

Since I am in the works of finally getting the CMMG lower I want. I might sell the other 2 lowers I have and build one good rifle. what would this be worthminus the stock and mag? 0 -
Wife bought me a Gibbs enfield .308 today.
It was a present for not attacking a nut case in the V.A.
I never try to PUSH my beliefs off on to anybody unless they ask, and are serious.
Just hate it when they just walk up and start yelling "God is comming!" "you need to get right with God" " You need to be saved!"
I mean right in your face. Didn't jesus say something about the man praying quitly and alone in the temple? Some of these people need to read their own bible and not only pick out the part they like.0 -
Hope this works
ok guys tell what you think about my new toy.I think I got a good deal on what you all think.

Well, Momma let me buy my own Christmas gift this year so I'm the proud owner of a Suomi SMG kit, a Yugo AK47 kit, and a Romanian AK47 kit.
The Romanian looks like it's never even had a round chambered. Not even a scratch on the bolt or rails, with laminated stock.
I just can't get enough of these. Kind of a disease, I guess.
Now to start making receivers.

Yep! really didnt need this one [:o)]but the wood was so purty, I couldnt let it go. My friend had this remington 1100 Trap T, and because of that purty wood I bought it..
Hard to keep out the glare..

Do I give my friends advice? NO, . They wouldn't take advice from me. Nobody should take advice from me. I haven't got a clue about anything..0 -
Installed a matchweight (new in wrapper shipped for $162.50 off ebay)on my old USP
