plastic
Plastics are a wide range of synthetic or semi-synthetic organic compounds that are malleable and so can be molded into solid objects.
Plasticity is the general property of all materials which can deform irreversibly without breaking but, in the class of moldable polymers, this occurs to such a degree that their actual name derives from this specific ability.
Plastics are typically organic polymers of high molecular mass and often contain other substances. They are usually synthetic, most commonly derived from petrochemicals, however, an array of variants are made from renewable materials such as polylactic acid from corn or cellulosics from cotton linters.Due to their low cost, ease of manufacture, versatility, and imperviousness to water, plastics are used in a multitude of products of different scale, including paper clips and spacecraft. They have prevailed over traditional materials, such as wood, stone, horn and bone, leather, metal, glass, and ceramic, in some products previously left to natural materials.
In developed economies, about a third of plastic is used in packaging and roughly the same in buildings in applications such as piping, plumbing or vinyl siding. Other uses include automobiles (up to 20% plastic), furniture, and toys. In the developing world, the applications of plastic may differ—42% of India's consumption is used in packaging. Worldwide, about 50 kg of plastic is produced annually per person, with production doubling every ten years.
Plastics have many uses in the medical field as well, with the introduction of polymer implants and other medical devices derived at least partially from plastic. The field of plastic surgery is not named for use of plastic materials, but rather the meaning of the word plasticity, with regard to the reshaping of flesh.
The world's first fully synthetic plastic was bakelite, invented in New York in 1907, by Leo Baekeland who coined the term 'plastics'. Many chemists have contributed to the materials science of plastics, including Nobel laureate Hermann Staudinger who has been called "the father of polymer chemistry" and Herman Mark, known as "the father of polymer physics".The success and dominance of plastics starting in the early 20th century led to environmental concerns regarding its slow decomposition rate after being discarded as trash due to its composition of large molecules. Toward the end of the century, one approach to this problem was met with wide efforts toward recycling.
I am looking to buy plastic bolt shroud from Tikka T3 if anyone has one. I am in Seattle. I do not need metal shroud, just cheap plastic one since I need to modify it in order to fit older Tikka M658 bolt.
Cheers,

I've been hanging onto the "better" type of ammunition boxes with plastic trays just in case I needed to "package" / organize loose ammunition, however that hasn't come to fruition. That being said I figured I'd post the empty boxes here (for "free") to see if anyone who reloads ammo (or anyone...
One omni lower with palmetto build kit. Funtions, never had an upper on it.
GWAC integrated butt stock lower. P-Tac lower kit installed. One of the little brass detents is stuck in the lower because I didn't ream prior to install.
Plus leftover parts pictured including charge handle and 5.56...
Are plastic moon clips a thing?
Or other lesser expensive options?
Curious if there is a market for such a thing?
All the ones I’ve seen are quite expensive for what they are.
I’ve seen some as high as $5 a piece. They were stainless wire EDM cut, but dang!
I’d think these should be fairly...
Looking to possibly sell something I can't find extra parts to start reloading with. What is the going rate nowadays for a never opened Hornady reloading kit (except dies, powder etc.) still with the plastic wrapping the box?
I have 150 total remington brass for sale that are in plastic boxes.
The first lot has 20 that are 2 times fired with spent primers and 30 more that are 1 time fired and Winchester WLR large rifle primers seated in them.
The second 2 lots are a total of 100 brass that are 1 time fired and...
Prefer a trade. I have a sealed plastic ammo can of Hornady American Gunner 200rds 140gr BTHP in 6.5 cm. I’m looking for a trade. If you have brass cased 7.62X39 & premium 9mm we can do a trade.
This is accurate stuff. I was getting 3/8” 5shot groups with this factory loads.
