    Re: official shtf plan what you gonna grab Get plenty of turtles. Zombies like them, so they would make a good distraction when trying to escape.

    bulk ammo for my bolt gun? .223

    Re: bulk ammo for my bolt gun? .223 Fiocchi 40 grain VMax shoots great from my 1-9 Savage. I was very impressed with the overall quality of the ammo, especially at 40 cents per round.

    Rifle Scopes super sniper , my experience

    Re: super sniper , my experience I don't have any personal experience with the fixed power models, but I, too, had read that the higher-magnification models were not as clear as the 6 and 10 power models. My 3-9s are fantastic and my expectations for the 5-20 are high. I think your remark...

    Savage and Howa work

    Re: Savage and Howa work Off topic, but I spent a summer at the Gasthaus Dietz in Illesheim. It was great to live in a small German town, riding my bike to Bad Windsheim for dinner and beer. 2-6 and 6-6 Cav were there at the time, as well as 7-159th AVIM.

    ***Your Opinion***Does everyone need a .308???????

    Re: ***Your Opinion***Does everyone need a .308??????? If you don't handload, yes. If you do handload, you still need something in that class, though I think a .30-06 would do just fine (and maybe even a little better) in most circumstances.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns 9mm for small hands--am I missing any?

    Re: 9mm for small hands--am I missing any? I don't see a 9mm 1911 having any advantage over the Hi-Power, but it is certainly an option. I really like Kahrs, too, but I think the T9 is a bit big and heavy for carry and comes up short on capacity and shootability for a house gun. Is the P99...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Desert eagle .44

    Re: Desert eagle .44 Don't shoot lead bullets in the DE. It may not have happnened yet, but according to seasoned users, this will lead to irreparable fouling of the gas system. Jacketed bullets only. On a brighter note, I sold my .50 because it was just too damn expensive to shoot. I am...

    Selling guns at Cabelas

    Re: Selling guns at Cabelas I learned a long time ago not to sell guns to people who expect to make a living from reselling them. I have sold almost all of my guns online, mostly through forums like this one or through the various auction sites. Unless you need the money ricky-tick, I would...

    Treating a K9 wounded in line of duty

    http://www.petconnection.com/blog/2011/07/21/officer-down-the-saving-of-shadow/ A vet friend of mine shared this story with me. I thought it was worth posting. My shop manages the Working Dogs in this part of Iraq and I sometimes get to train/play with them. These dogs do great things for us...

    Rifle Scopes SnipersHide/SWFA SS HD 5-20x50 GroupBuy

    Re: SnipersHide/SWFA SS HD 5-20x50 GroupBuy So if I ordered on 15 June... at least I will have my 3-9s to keep me company until the New Year! More pictures from those of you who have received yours already. I am pretty sure there is a thread dedicated to 5-20 pics already.

    Suppressors $600 to have a trust drawn up?

    Re: $600 to have a trust drawn up? $600, or the cost of three tax stamps. Or a decent rimfire suppressor and a stamp. Or half of a good rifle-caliber suppressor. Sounds like, given the scale of spending we are talking about, spending the money is a decent investment.

    Anti Smoking Rant

    Re: Anti Smoking Rant I have been told to put out cigars in places where dozens fo people are smoking cigarettes. Asinine as it is (especially when it isn't posted) I had to comply with the wishes of the business owner. I like cigars and pipes. In fact, I will smoke one tonight. But it...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns 9mm for small hands--am I missing any?

    Re: 9mm for small hands--am I missing any? Thanks for all the feedback, guys. I will take him to the range and see what he likes in terms of function and controls and narrow it from there. It sounds like just about every preference (striker vs hammer, DA vs TDA, manual safety or no) is...

    Rifle Scopes Barska Sniper Scope questions

    Re: Barska Sniper Scope questions For all the guys who are saying "you get what you pay for," I think it is more accurate to say "you don't get what you don't pay for." That is, it is easy to pay a lump of cash for something that blows (those magic ninja sniper scopes from Sprotsman's Guide...

    New Shooter - FNAR Heavy Range Report

    Re: New Shooter - FNAR Heavy Range Report Congratulations on the new rifle! I dismissed these things at first but apparently they are capable of good performance despite some inherent weaknesses in the design. Some decent glass (perhaps a SS 10x?) will make a remarkable difference in how...

    Rifle Scopes SnipersHide/SWFA SS HD 5-20x50 GroupBuy

    Re: SnipersHide/SWFA SS HD 5-20x50 GroupBuy Just in case anyone is considering the 3-9 as a holdover, you will not be disaappinted. I have two and they performed admirably enough over my mid-tour shooting sessions that it forced me to add an extra 5-20 to my order.

    Super capacity AR mags like Beta C etc

    Re: Super capacity AR mags like Beta C etc I know it isn't what you are asking for, but if you don't have one, you might invest in a Saiga 12 with an MD Arms 20 round drum. If 20 rounds of buckshot doesn't intimidate, I don't know what will. forum.saiga-12.com is the place to look for info...
