Guns, Gear, Accessories, Etc: What did you buy today?

[Boboclown]

If it will fit my Brazilian IMBEL upper, I am in. There are so many variants and Franken-FALS out there, it is hard to keep track of what will fit which. Mine is a metric R1A1 and has a ZA lower and Steyr barrel, imported by CAI Canada. I do not have enough faith in the top cover mounts - needs to be attached to receiver. Looks just like Boboclowns.

In general metric fits metric. Top cover mounts for the FAL are not a problem, at least not for the fixed stocks (paratroopers are different). There's no mounting an optic to the receiver. You never really need to remove the top cover, so its not going to matter much.

Or if you're concerned about it, just get a railed top cover from DSA.

I wanna do up some mock Mk262 loads over the next week or so since they are what my Noveske 18" barrel was designed for. I'll post a review or something later on

I too have a 18" Noveske Upper, let us know how those loads work out. To date I have only shot 55 grain with it.

Those MK- 262 loads should be awesome! Hard as heck to find!

Took a year to get the rifle and then the parts to convert to 10 MM, so Yea!

And now Hi-Point has their new 10MM Carbine for $389 MSRP.

I did get two more Magazines for my Glock 33 and one for the 42.

I bought one of these today, because shooting pistols at paper can be a little boring if it's just one. I'll buy more iffn I like this'n!

 

[Levetti]

Sold a kidney so I could buy some ammo. Can't go shooting until Friday. The anticipation is going to be torture!

You should take me out shooting next time I see my grand parents. I'll show you some good fishing holes in return.

Let us know how you like the various brands, I know I can find the Armscor so that is what I am most interested in. I'm sure you will like the Sig.

More than likely all my guns will be pawned and I'll be living in a van down by the river the next time you hear from me. And I blame it all on Kimber and 10mm! Seriously though, if you're ever in Spokane I'd be glad to take you shooting and that goes for everyone else that has welcomed me so kindly on NWFA.

I've shot the Sig and like it best. The bullet is a little more round than the others which helps with feeding in my 1911. I also liked the PPU JHP, which ran pretty good too. My gun HATES the S&B and I only bought it because it was cheap and I'm hoping after completing the break-in it might actually shoot. I haven't shot the Armscor yet, but I'll let you know what I think once I do.

 

[Flymph]

It's a deal! I'll try to bring something obscure to make it even more fun, my first thought is the broomhandle.

I've been watching this and a want to work up a load using 8208.. won't get quite the velocity before reaching pressure, but looks like even with a little less FPS it can be quite accurate.

His barrel and eviromentals are different, but it's a good reference for sure. I want to get some of the black hills for a baseline, but it's pretty spendy... This stuff is currently in the NWFA classifieds, and is supposed to be pretty close. If so .50 a rnd is a great deal. I'd like to try some to see. Don't wanna buy 1000 rounds tho...

Sounds to me like what you need are some partners to split that half-case with... if I had better cashflow and mobility I might offer to help.

That'd be great, only issue is group buys are against the the forum rules... not sure if that's applies between members tho?

 

[Diamondback]

If you're fronting the entire cost and then just reselling to other members... ? @F2CMaDMaXX @Kruejl Mods, would that fly?

Pity, I was hoping we could get a group-buy on Pmag cases together before the bags of exploding syphilitic dicks in Salem and Olympia get their mag bans moving...
