Why does this always happen?
I join a forum and they have an illicit firearms thread?
I can't post pics of everything, I think I just got over forty a few weeks ago.
But I've got a M1 carbine, which I don't shoot very often. I've got an M1 Garand, which I certainly shoot much more.
I work part time at a local gun store, they bought the Garand and then found out the barrel was shot. So I bought it from them for 300, bought a match barrel for 200, and had my gunsmith do a final chamber ream. For about 600 bucks I've got a very nice shooter.
Lets see, one AR-50 break barrel, I make the offer to all forums. If you find me a place in MI that lets you shoot 50, in the lower peninsula, we can meet there. I'll bring the rifle and enough ammo to sate your thirst.
Two BCM middies. One is 16", that's the wife's. Mine is 14.5", with a pinned flash suppressor. One standard AR, its the first one I built so I keep it for sentimental reasons. I'm currently building three more. Another 14.5 BCM, but with a flaming pig of a AT15 eliminator flash suppressor. Both throw the concussion forwards of the shooters to make shooting the rifle nicer on the ears, and the other people shooting next to you. The flaming pig throws an eight foot flame out of the end, the eliminator completely eliminates it.
Plus two ARs for my girls. They will be 16" light weight barrel middies. With Magpul furniture.
Lets see... Remington 700 PSS, in .308 win. It can put them under a dime at 100 yards, when I do my part.
Two Rem 870 shotguns. One HD, and the other a rifled deer hunter.
Two 303 enfields. One Mauser. One 30-40 Craig. One Winchester 1876 centennial clone in 40-60. Three Winchester model 94 30-30s.
One Quigley sharps in 45-70. And it's a blast to shoot. I don't shoot it often as I cast my own bullets, and it uses a lot of lead per shot.
Hmmm...... Browning A5 12 ga, marlin guide gun in 45-70 as well. The pre Remington buyout, so it actually works. Three 22rifles. And a whole lot more I can't think of right now.
Handguns......Glock model 30 and 22... Sig P239, S&W scandium 357, and model 13 four inch 357. Also a model 10 almost mint, can't wait to shoot it this spring. Ruger bisley vaquero old style in 45 colt. Super black hawk in 44 mag. Uberti colt peacemaker clone in 45 colt. Barretta 92 FS. Remington R3 1911 stainless. Oh, another smith 22 pistol. 22a I think.... Wow, I have 12 handguns and I remembered them all! I know it's twelve because the two handgun racks in my safe are full and they each hold six. Though I usually have the 30, or the scandium 357 on me.
I reload for everything except 22LR. Especially the 50, the 40-60, and the 45-70. I actually have to make the brass for the 40-60 as no one makes it now. I cast for almost an my guns. I've got about thirty molds. And my reloading bench has five presses on it. A Dillon 650, RCBS rock chucker, rock chucker jr, a mec 12ga press, and a LEE classic cast for the 50bmg.
I will take some pics in the safe later, and get a shot of the bench.
Almost forgot, one AK-47, one norinco SKS that uses true AK mags, not those long eared SKS conversions.
And a real FN-FAL Paratrooper, not a parts kit.
I've got all the tools to put togeter AR's. the bench blocks, wrenches, punches, gas tube tool, split rimg wrench. I've built over a dozen now. If anyone in MI needs help let me know, we can meet at shooters service on a Sunday when I'm working and I can see what we need to do.
