    "Trust method" suppressor

    I used the "Quicken Will maker" software to create a revokable living trust. My wife and I have very few assets, so it was quite simple. Maybe about 20 minutes at the computer. I had it notarized, and made a copy. I dropped it off at my NFA dealer on the 16th of March. I got a call from him...

    'nuther lil' ranger enroute

    That damn wife of mine got herself knocked up again. :D I have been suspecting for a week or two (hates my guts for 12 hours, tolerates me for 12, hates me again...rapes me like there is no tomorrow :D for 3 hours, needs a nap for the next two days, etc.... more than normal) Went to the...

    Charles Daley 20ga

    I bought this several years ago. I got it as a return to wally world, paid $175 IIRC. This is the only auto-loading shotgun that I ever encountered. Must they be kept immaculately clean? I routinely shoot my other autos for several hundred rounds before some 'annoyance malfunctions' occur...

    How about some input before I send? Feel free to plagiarize, reproduce and shamelessly cut/paste and call you own.

    Caribou horns

    Well, after a year or so in my garage, the wife leaned on me to get these things mounted. She decided that our den would look better with more horns in it. Have I mentioned that I love her? I'm not quite finished yet, the plaque is drying in the garage, and I am going to put some trim "rope"...

    Round stuck in AR

    At the range this AM, first round chambered. It slid into the chamber before I had released the bolt handle fully, so it didn't have enough force to put the extractor over the rim. So I dropped the mag, and pullde th bolt to the rear and let 'er fly. I don't have a forward assist. I looked at...

    Lee or RCBS hand primer?

    Well, as I have decided to start reloading the 5.7 x 28mm round, I had to break down and buy a set of RCBS dies. Not my first, mind you, but not my favorite manufacturer. After cleaning and resizing 400 rounds, I discovered that my set of LEE shellholders doesn't have one that fits this...

    223 reloading

    Launching a new caliber for the ranger. What powder do you guys recommend? I will be shooting 55gr sp/fmj out of a 1-9 twist 24" barrel. (thanks DanielBoon) I load some of my other rifles with imr 4896 and h 4831. I am going to load up some 'rainy day' ammo and would like to set up my powder...

    5.7 x 28 mm reloading tips

    I recently bought one of these platforms and at $.50 a round, decided that I would stuff my own. I am curious how many of you all do this round as well. I have found that these cases are lacquered and that stuff will come off and make a mess in the tumbler. Apparently, something along the...

    They did it right this time...

    http://savannahnow.com/node/206731 These folks passed me during the chase. :eek: I was approaching them in the other lane and saw both of them, with the 'entire' police department following. I switched my radio (I was driving the fire truck) to the police channel and listened to the chase...

    Recycling brass

    When you guys go to the range, I know that you have to be thinking like me. Look at all of that shiny yellow brass on the ground! ($1.20 a pound) We have a public range here in town, and I believe that Monday morning I am going to help the DNR out by emptying their trash cans for them. Any...

    Purple tip 30 cal bullets

    I have a bunch of these. I pulled a few, and they appear to be tracers. They do not 'light up' when fired, and even using NVGs I didn't spot them. What the heck are they? They are LC 98 manufacture.

    Mailing ammo

    Is it ok to mail a box and a half of loaded ammo? Does it matter that they are tracers?

    .223 reloading, cost effectiveness

    I have a few .223 launchers and I am considering reloading for this caliber. With "blaster grade" ammo available for about $150/1000 delivered to the door, is it cost effective to load? To further clarify, I don't intend to cast my own. I would be purchasing bullets, and powder runs about...

    Christmas is coming...wishlist @ Midway

    Several years ago, I was creating my "wishlist" @ midway USA, so when placing a future order, I would not forget one of the items that I needed. A few weeks later, my sister-in-law, who had drawn my name for Christmas, was asking my wife what to buy for me. I had several inexpensive things for...

    Case Trimmer

    I Have a Lee lock stud and case trimmer for my 270. I have several other calibers that I wish to reload, and I am considering the Hornady cam lock trimmer. I can buy the pilot for the lee for $4 per caliber. Or the Cam lock for $60. Thoughts, experience, input, or criticizms?

    replacing a rifle bbl, remington

    Last year, I bought a rifle for my kid. I bought it online, and was impressed with what I got. Glass like trigger, glass bedded action, and a floating BBL. What a deal I got! Damn thing doesn't shoot worth a flip. Now, don't get me wrong, it will hit a pie plate at 100 yards...and in my...

    Sizing Lubricant

    Do any of you all have any suggestion for "homemade" lube? I am in the middle of sizing 243, and realizied that I am out. BPS quit carrying anything but powder and primers, and I have no other local source for supplies. WD-40 isn't working too good. :D

    Computer savvy gun geeks

    I have a,totally unrelated to guns (other than me buying many, should this project be successful), venture that I wish to pursue. I need someone to develop a database for me, and the related sundries. I have run into a dead end with the folks I deal with here locally, and figured one of my...
