    Something kicking off in Israel

    "This is the NEW “Iron Dome”—but where interceptions cost $50k per launch, this will be .5¢" It's always good when war becomes cost effective. (y)

    Something kicking off in Israel

    Well, I kind of look at it this way. Where would you rather spend your vacation if you had to choose? (Assuming there was no war going on). Israel, or Yemen?

    Something kicking off in Israel

    As Clint Eastwood once said, "There is nothing wrong with shooting people... Just as long as the right people get shot". Almost 50 years later, and I can't find a flaw in that statement.

    Something kicking off in Israel

    The best thing so far, that I've heard about all of this stupid nonsense happening at these college campuses. Is there are several various big companies asking for a list of names, of all of these students who are participating in all of these pro arab, anti Israel demonstrations. Many of them...

    Something kicking off in Israel

    This isn't "official" M-855, but it's pretty much the same deal. Not too bad at $10.99 @ box, or 55 cents a round. I'm willing to bet it's going to be a lot higher in weeks to come.... If it's available at all...

    Something kicking off in Israel

    Checking around perhaps that's not too bad of a price after all. A lot of places are out of stock on XM855. And those who have it are charging up to $1.00 @ round, or more. My guess is with the wars in both Ukraine and Israel, it will stay out of stock, or else be sky high in price when it is...

    Here ya' go.... But at 56 cents a round, it ain't no deal. https://www.adseyewear.com/FAQ/product/federal-ammo-5-56mm-nato-federal-xm855-62-grain-fmj-green-tip-steel-penetrator-3104-fps-12500-round-barrel-xm855bar/

    Something kicking off in Israel

    Let's at least be realistic. How many HEMI Dodge Challenger's can they possibly need? Gaza streets are now ridden with potholes, making street takeovers all but impossible.

    Something kicking off in Israel

    Does anyone have the skinny on the rockets Huh Mazz is using? How big? How far, (range)? and what guides them, (accuracy)? How much explosive power on impact? They've been lobbing these things at Israel seeming forever. Who makes them? It appears they've got a shitload of them.

    ATI Schmeisser 60 Round Magazines ?

    Has anyone used these things? If so how have they functioned for you? They seem to get very good reviews. Gun Mag Warehouse currently has them on sale for just $34.99 each. So I took a chance and ordered 5 of them. I've seen them normally go for $50.00 a piece. I purchased 2, 60 round Surefire...

    McConnell seizes up again.

    If you're a airline captain, they automatically kick you out of the left seat at 67. Because the FAA has determined with their infinite wisdom, that you are too old to be trusted with the responsibility of a multi million dollar aircraft, and up to or over 300 people's lives.... But it's OK to...

    Barrel temperature ?

    This picture is rather ancient, (1999). But it shows 6 shots out of my .338-378 shot in under 5 minutes. Not much spread as it heated up. The lower group was shot last. Not too bad considering 588 grains of powder was consumed. I couldn't keep my hand on the barrel for very long immediately...
