    Man jumps from 25000 feet into a net...with no chute.

    ^^^^^^Yepper, I used to work for a pathology lab picking up different biopsy samples and slides/photos (early 80's) for the medical examiners office who was also running the lab across the hall. One memorable set of photo's was from a skydiver who's chute didn't open. His body made an...

    LR 308 Malfunction

    Yep, time to start adjusting for clean 3-4 o'clock ejection unsupressed and I'm satisfied with 230-3 o'clock with an Silencerco Omega 300 on my Armalite.

    https://www.milsurps.com/showthread.php?t=21554 My only exposure to Wohler scopes is they are very desirable in the SIG world for the PE57 and AMT rifles as they are so rare as to command many thousands ie; 7-10K for a Sig version with mount in fine condition. The link above may shed some light...

    So, I want to buy my folks a good water filtration deal for emergencies...recommendations?

    Because it's absurd to market a water filter for "emergencies" and try and say you would drink water contaminated with kerosene or cadmium or other heavy metals and then say water that you swim in and play in shouldn't be used in an emergency?? Really and seriously you must be delusional. But...

    So, I want to buy my folks a good water filtration deal for emergencies...recommendations?

    I find it strange the Berkey site "what will my filter remove" it gets pretty amazing, then stupid. it will remove all kinds of contaminants except they don't recommend it for filtering pool water!!! So in an emergency head over to the pond or drainage ditch for your water but don't use the...

    Old Anschutz .22 Garden gun

    yes, you guys have solved the puzzle, it's spelled out .22 long rifle and has a rifled barrel, so from what you have said it should be ok with modern ammo. I will use regular lead standard load .22 and hope for the best. thanks to all who figured this out!!!

    Old Anschutz .22 Garden gun

    I believe grauhanen is saying it's a Flobert action? but I do know they made the black powder ammo back then obviously just wanting to make sure say regular LR ammo will be safe to use.

    Old Anschutz .22 Garden gun

    Thanks for the info, so the Flobert 1 most commonly used the Flobert rimfire whether 6 or 9mm? Since this is .22LR is it safe to use modern ammo in these or is the Flobert .22 ammo required. I don't want to blow up the rifle with modern ammo.

    Old Anschutz .22 Garden gun

    This little .22 LR according to a knowledgeable Anshutz rep. was made between 1950-55 and was called a "garden gun" to dispatch varmints, birds etc. It is in immaculate condition for a 70+ year old rifle, wood is perfect with no dings/scratches, pretty remarkable. Single shot bolt action and...

    K-Bars Is this a Randall at Genesis

    The sheath and handle sure look Randall but the Model 1 of that era had a layered leather handle not the finger grooved one afaik. Looks like my model 14 handle but those don't have a butt cap or pommel. the history is a little vague. https://www.randallknives.com/randall-history/

    Any South Florida rifle ranges of 1,000 yds and longer?

    Boy that's a surprise LOL, it changes hands so much and then members are left hanging or just screwed. I'm not sure what is going on but there are rumors from "building a race track" to "the Israeli's are coming in to run a special ops training center" so you might as well flip a few coins or...

    Looks like Amex has gone WOKE

    AMEX has been woke for many years, this is nothing new just more in your face. But they do have the best CS in the industry IMO, but I have reduced my use of the card to a trickle because of their political idiocy.

    SIG 716i Tread sticky bolt.

    Yep, and I make grease by mixing the M1 with M1 grease to make a buttery smooth concoction for light grease use. The beauty is it's cheap, easy and you can mix it to whatever texture you like. IMO oil/grease doesn't need to be expensive by buying "gun" oil/grease, it's a lubricant not rocket...
