Don't bother with trying for 1k capability at this point. The .223 is not the right tool for the job, and it is incredibly unlikely that you will ever take a 1000 yard shot for any purpose other than fun. There is only 1 1000-yard range in the state so unless you have private land to shoot on, you a...

As you know, last friday's events will make getting some of the things on your list difficult and/or more expensive. If you have a line on the AR and mags and are in any sort of hurry, you may want to get them soon. I am not saying that you will never be able to buy them again(although it is a possi...

Assault Weapons Ban Close private gun sale loophole Magazine restrictions One gun a month Limit permit to carry yeah, I think they have a long list The AWB/Mag Restrictions are pretty-much the same thing, they are always proposed together. Private sales is the "gun show loophole," they ar...

That sounds like a good price for the job. I used AAA some years ago when I got my last safe and they did a good job, but it sounds like their prices aren't too competitive anymore. Will definitely check out Manny's next time. Thanks for the info.

Definitely a good idea.

Things will almost certainly be changing, and soon. This is not directed at you personally, but one thing I've learned on this forum is that the general consensus of what's going to happen politically is almost always wrong here. Obama's going to lose in 2012, Voter ID is going to pass easily, afte...

I understand that you have to try to believe that nothing will happen, since you voted for these folks. Unfortunately, it won't take long to prove you wrong. Who did I vote for again? Please show me one person I voted for that is discussing gun control. Any one will do. Go ahead, I'll wait. That's ...

Nothing will happen. It's just like every other incident in the past few years. Everyone will say something has to be done, and nothing will. I'm pretty sure things will be happening. Even your super pro-2A DFL won't be able to resist the need for some good, old-fashioned "Common sense" g...

My proposal to the mentally ill question revolves specifically around those that should not own or have guns, that their is some way of reporting this so it comes up in the NICS check. Who will decide who should not own or have guns, and what will the criteria be? I was speaking about the mentally ...

That would be no, no and no and wondering why they where asked. Very simply, I had been asked those very questions, and had no argument against. In addition, if you don't ask, you won't know the reasons why or why not. 1. What is your proposal? 2. No 3. Yes My proposal to the mentally ill question ...

It's already illegal to murder people, I fail to see how more laws will somehow prevent it.

But that doesn't mean that they won't try anyways.

FYI Manny's was here today and did an amazing job. Very courteous, careful, and inexpensive. I'd highly recommend them. Lucycan, would you mind posting some details of the job and what they ended up charging for it? How many steps, how big/heavy of a safe, general area of MN etc? I may be in the ma...

The media separator is not necessary, but does speed up the process. I generally use one, but have just emptied all of the cases by hand before also, 4-5 at a time. The nice thing about the stainless pins is they are heavy and will dump out of the cases when turned upside down. This takes longer, bu...

Cabela's has THIS on sale for $160. Thumler's Tumbler Model B Rotary Tumbler The Model B Rotary Tumbler works equally well with dry or liquid case cleaners. with a barrel rotation of 30 rpm and a motor speed of 3,000 rpm, with enough room for over 250 .30-06 cases the rotary action is great for cle...

The RRA NM is a good trigger. I've had many and have had no problems at all. All are a huge improvement from a stock trigger and some are close to excellent. Had one in my Service Rifle for Highpower matches for 3 seasons and about 9k rounds before replacing it with a Geissele. Only replaced it beca...
