thanks for the lookout, i seriously dont have any money at all, and if i did id probably have to hold on to it for emergency use. if i finally save some extra money im going for a 40 and 45 usp compact or a glock 26. thats been my plan for years now, although id love to have a nice rifle and scope.

One of the stores I frequent had a TEC-9 for sale yesterday for $340 in awesome condition, but I didn't know enough about the value of it to buy it. By the time I go back I'm sure it'll be gone. I had a one of the Mossberg 500 variants in my hands but when I opened the slide the chamber was all scratched to ****.....huge gashes on the inside of it. Def wasn't about to buy that POS.

Ewwww if i am assuming correctly u mean a 500 variant by another company making a copy of the 500 I wouldnt go near it, but if u mean other mossberg product they arent bad, but go remingtom 870 if ur going for a nice pump shotty for cheap, i have an old Arizona Highway patrol remi 870 that i got for $100 out the door (they will withstand MANY more rounds than the mossbergs will, and a little used you barely pay any more)

No, it was a Mossberg, but there are about 25 different versions you can buy the 500 in from Mossberg. This was one that was originally very basic but the previous owner had slapped a bunch of parts on to make it look like a different version. The parts were right, but the work was done at home and looked like **** up close. plus, I didn't want that ****ty barrel to cause a round to blow up in my face.

got it, good decision my man:cool: haha

anyone seen a decent bolt action .223 anywhere? I've been looking for something like a savage or tikka but trying to save some cash because I'm in no rush. I figure if I cant find one in the next week though I will just order it. I'm also looking for a used progressive press for reloading.

Anyway, TST group shoot? anyone want to set something up

It seemed like a nicely built rifle, but after i found out that i could only safely fire .223 in it, and not 5.56 and .223, i swapped it out for brand new bushmaster M4A3, same basic gun, only a little stiffer trigger, no full floating barrel, and all black. Plus the bushmaster has the chrome lined barrel(remington did not), and came with a larger mag(but its a crappy military-like issue). A3 sights are sweet too, once i get consistent with iron sights, i'd like to get a TA31. The M4 is a gem, i got about 100 rounds through it plinking at TM monday.

lolz

Ah, that stinks, I didn't know they only came in .223. 100 rounds isn't even through the "break-in period", keep shooting. :mrgreen:

my bf got me a nice little ladysmith - hopefully it doesn't have too much kick for me when we go shooting for my 110lb ass lol

No thanks to the lady smith. It doesn't make for a very fun plinker :lol:. On the other hand, for a concealed carry gun for a trained user, it's a great choice.

And be careful with the word usage of who got who what...certain (multiple in this case) legalities involved.

good to know. what's crazy is we live in philly near the tacoma bridge, and travel between pa and nj a lot - and in nj if they catch u with a gun, bullets or anything like that it's one year in jail mandatory and a felony. isn't that crazy? regaurdless of having a permit to carry in pa or not.

Yeah, i gotta find me some bulk ammo now.

just wanted to put it out there that im a pround owner of a new oly ar 15 as of today......... woooohoooo



as for ammo check out cheaper than dirt.com

I was at the range today. My buddy and I shoot about 200 rds of 223 though his AR and 200 rds of 7.62x39 though a RPK

what brand of rounds and what brand ar were you shooting i found a good deal on .223 rounds but when i read the customer reviews on the rounds it was split about 50/50 with great and horrible

The rounds we shoot were from a case of Remmington 223.

We didn't have a single problem and shot pretty well.

I usually run either wolf or silver bear through my AR. I've never had a problem with either and they are usually the cheapest online. I use aimsurplus.com or ammunitiontogo.com

got a 1000 rounds of .223 for the AR in the mail last week, after like a month back ordered

just picked up my permit today, walked out in 45 minutes, i thought it would take 2 weeks.
