The Gun Thread

[A//// Guy]

That in wall storage is cool, but there are way better options out there with lockable doors on them.

Imagine this on a national scale.

Same thing will happen here, shits going to get deep man. I hope everybody see's where this is going. They've been trying for a long time. I'm just glad alot of CLEO's and armed forces believe in that oath they took.

Paul Howe has a pretty level headed outlook if any infringement does make it to law.

Why here. We dont any crazy laws up here. no school shootings or mass shootings here. This shouldnt be possible for them to do.

[MustGoFaster]

Why not here? Another state to point to and say "look, they thought it was a good idea" and promote a gun ban. If you can't get it done nationally, do it state by state. If you guys haven't contacted the elected officals, do so and let them know what you think. Here is a copy and paste from an email with some good contact info.

Here is what is going down this week in the MN House of Representatives, it is very important to let your representative know what you would like them to do:
https://www.revisor.mn.gov/bin/bldbi...l&session=ls88
https://www.revisor.mn.gov/bin/bldbi...l&session=ls88 (Inspection of the storage of registered weapons (entering and inspecting your home) see parts 10.14 10.15 10.16)

https://www.revisor.mn.gov/bin/bldbi...l&session=ls88 (seven round max mag. capacity)
https://www.revisor.mn.gov/bin/bldbi...l&session=ls88 (12mo waiting period for permits to carry)

US Senate Bill (S-150) is what I have been following last week and is still a good one to keep an eye on (http://www.govtrack.us/congress/bills/113/s150#overview).

I don't want to end up like a Jewish person in an gas chamber, but would like to do so peacefully. I will be peaceful for as long as possible.

Stopped by fleet farm during lunch and the lady said they are raising prices up on ammo. 2 to 4 dollars a box. So I bought all the buckshot and slugs they had.

[dsmolition]

Powder coated a ak chrome and gold last night. going to do the safety in a glossy black and it should be done. Also added a tapco trigger kit and new grip. Have an original scope mount and scope for it also. It’s so shiny lol.

[Murlo26]

^Nice, looking good dude.

I am on the hunt for some more 223 this week, doubtful that I find any. This weekend I am going up north to a buddies cabin where they belong to a 300 yard range for a weekend of shooting fun

[goodhart]

Good, hurry up and use that acog, my dad is chomping at the bit to use that thing on his new toy.

[Murlo26]

Does anyone know anywhere locally that has any stock of 223 or 5.56 rounds? I'd love to pick up another 100 rounds for this weekend.

[93gtpeater]

I will check my local fleet farm. Pm your number so I can text you.

[AJ]

Ditto on the .223, just sucks that people who want to use it can't without paying $1+ a round for even steel cased shit.

[Murlo26]

Every place I go to is sold out.

All the stores say that the same people come in every single day and just buy out everything they get. So apparently people are just hoarding it all not even shooting it. So fucking stupid that people are that concerned with stockpiling 1000's of rounds. i just want a few hundred to shoot for fun, sheez.

It's buying them up to stock pile and also re-sell that is killing it. I'd like to get 1k rounds for some .223 brass to allow me to shoot a couple hundred rounds a month for the summer. most of my other shooing is via 9mm or .22 and even that is hard to get now.

[Murlo26]

Thanks Peter for the tip!



It's shitty ammo (varmint rounds) and expensive, but now I have some damn 223 to shoot this weekend at least, well more than a few clips worth. Yay.

[93gtpeater]

Peter?

[93gtpeater]

Lol its Paul. If I see any cheap 223 I will let you know
