Ben Ji's dad has not shot a gun in maybe 20 years but keeps buying them because Y2K/OBAMA/2012/YELLOWSTONE ERUPTION so we get to shoot those as well. Mainly your normal ass rifles but he did buy a surplus USSR Mosin-Nagat that is probably the coolest just because its different.

Mosin is a cool gun, the SKS is cool too if he gets his hands on one.

why don't more companies get into the ammo game if it's so hard to find/expensive?  i hear all of the time gun nuts swearing up a storm because ammo prices are too high.

They are scared to ramp up production again and get a repeat of 2016 where the demand dropped off the face of the earth.

Sounds like a potential anti-trust issue, if there's an actual or tacit agreement between the big manufacturers.

Steel industry is doing this right now. They idled a big chunk of forges in March 2020. Rather than come back online, we're all getting a 15% price increase while they "complete scheduled maintenance." I guarantee we won't see a price reduction when furnaces come back online.

More like 30% since October. That's been a fun realization for clients that shelved projects until after the election.

Ya. Raw market is up 30%. I'm buying/selling flat sheets and mostly fabbed fittings. So I didn't get the 30% number.

Sup #gunnuts, my father's cousin passed away recently who was a war historian/reenactor and had a bunch of working WWII guns both American and German. We of course put our name in the hat for the 'Merican guns. The two we inherited were M1A1 Carbine and an M1 Garand, they are very neat and nifty pieces of history.

Call of Duty WW2's are my favorite  :love:  I'm pretty deadly with both of those with a scope on them, but I prefer the German guns.  :comehere:

I own a shitload of guns but a WWII vintage M1 Garand is absolutely at the top of my wish list.

We’re in the process of upgrading all nerf dart guns to nerf ball guns.

If it's a pre 64 and in decent condition, that gun is probably worth a good amount of $$$

i don't understand people that shoot a lot.  i'm pretty sure that i've only fired one bullet that didn't kill an animal (unfortunately does not also hold true of shells).

Have you shot any 22 hand guns?
22 pistols are a blast to shoot and cheap to feed.  I have 2 Browning Buckmark MicroBulls (one for me, one for Mrs. Schreds) and it is one of my favorite guns to shoot.
