$50 for PMAGS. :eek:

I finally went and did the CC Class this past weekend before it's even more of a pain in the ass. Took my son and daughter* as well.
*She has no intent to carry, but as a high school teacher it could come in handy in the future.

*Not trying to go "DC" at all with the thread, if my post offends I'll remove it.

Makes me smile. America just became a lil more safer IMO
I did mine last Saturday.

Great Guns in Liberty has 5.56/.223 rounds which I know are hard to come by right now. Unfortunately, 500 rounds is $400

yikes

CDNN sports has a lot of mags in stock, you have to call though. No real PMAGS though.

Didn't say they were cheap :thumb:

Cabelas has Tapco 30 round AR mags in stock $23.
http://www.cabelas.com/product/Tapco...12&WT.tsrc=AFF

Just picked one of them up in 40. Great little gun.

That sounds like a good idea, actually. I'm sure it will become more of a pain to get a CC license after all this is said and done.

Holy ****....I pickd up 2 Cammenga 30's from Cabelas yesterday at $30 apeice. Only ordered 2 so I could check them out. Today they are not even listed on their site so I am happy I at least ordered 2

Anybody got a link for some Tapco AK-47 Mags?

These guys have AK mags in stock, but you'll have to call to see what exactly they have.

$30 for new Bulgarian mags isn't a horrible deal under the circumstances.

Not bad... are Tapco mags worth a shit or not... I hear both sides

The logic as explained to me is that the curved nature of 30+ round magazines sometimes causes the bullets to catch because of the "bullet tilt" and most mags ( including tapco mags) outside of PMAGs are more prone to this. I'm guessing this is why you see a lot of other brands tout that they have magpul followers in an effort to prevent this. I've never experienced this but just passing on what I was told.

This is why 20 "Thermelts" :) are generally good magazines. They are straight feed.

LOL some good cartoons, even though given the source you know who's in the minority!

Some of those enrage me. Lol

Yeah, that **** from the Sacramento paper must get his marching orders straight from Feinswine.

I couldn't look through them all. Got pissed off as well.

Bah there are some quality ones...you just have ignore obvious troll. Frankly I'd rather see anti-ones that are completely ridiculous than ones that have even an appearance of reality.

nice one!

Of all the stupid ones in that link above, this one has to be the stupidest least informed of the bunch.

http://www.usnews.com/usnews/php/gal.../856/48/48.jpg

That's propaganda if you ask me, not a cartoon.

Thing is, people will believe that shit.
Several years ago in a gun topic when I mentioned that I hunt deer with my SKS some know nothing piped off, "What are you trying to do, blow the deer up?" and he actually thought that was a salient point.

Ok, I thought I was being cute but that’s just stupid.
This is my brush rifle. I’m not dragging my -06 through the briars, locust, hedge rows and barbed wire so when I go hunting for anything coyote size and up this is what I take and it’s a plain Jane for a reason.
I’ve had a folding stock on it that got wobbly which made for inconsistent accuracy so I switched it out for this Draganov style stock and love it. The collapsible stocks out now look to be better quality than the folding stocks that used to be on the market but I’m happy enough I’m not switching now.
I have 30 round detachable magazines for it but those things don’t work worth a damn. I’m actually faster reloading with the stripper clips it was built to use and I got real tired of dragging it through the brush and having that long mag grab every branch that went by.
The high scope mount is cast into the receiver cover so I can still use the iron sites. Even with the scope turned down to 3X when drawing down on a deer at <50 yards if you can even get the scope on target all you’ll see is fur so the iron sites are actually very handy.
The scope isn’t great, its an NC Star Mil Dot 3-9X 42mm which is good enough for me to put 10 rounds into a pattern the size of a 1lb coffee can lid at 200 yards and if I put a longer scope on it with better optics I’d also have to put a shell deflector on it since SKS’s are notorious for dinging scope tubes with ejected shell casings.
So it’s not fancy but its reliable and I’m deadly with it.

Yeah, its idiotic on several levels. One of the things I'm hearing that enrages me the most is, "we're not going to ban your hunting rifles", or, "you don't need more than ten bullets to kill a deer." The last time I looked, the 2nd amendment isn't about hunting.

Exactly and that is what infuriates me the most is when people imply hunting has something to do with the right bear arms.

But its in there, right next to where it says the 2nd Amendment was meant for muskets. ;)

Uninformed sheep who make up the "why do you need that" crowd are the one's who are willing to trade freedom for the illusion of safety.

I wouldn't have held me cool. I'd have berated him Hamas Jenkins style.

anyone recommend a good IWB clip holster for the XD9?
I got my BIL an Aker IWB for his G19, but they dont' make one for the XD9...naturally.

I'm looking in the $40- 80 price range; non nylon; non thumb break

http://www.wideners.com/itemdetail.c...m_id=100001081

yogos are only up $20, so if you want a cheap sks before the butt-holes politicians change some laws have at her. Think you have to use certain type of ammo with these and don't think you will be hitting 500 yards consistently either.

Cheese and crackers, $400? :eek: I got mine pre-Clinton ban for $60 still packed in the cosmoline. Wish I’d have bought 20.
500 yards is stretching it for an SKS. I can cut paper out there but the round is losing so much velocity at that point I wouldn’t trust it to knock game of any size down.

Some perspective on the ammo shortage


<iframe width="560" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/-Fd0U2_GwKQ" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

found some .223 for $9 today for 20 cartridges. I bought all they had which wasn't much

Yeeeeeeaaaahhhhhhh. The stuff at the auction went pretty damn high.

What were some prices?


Auctions bring out the stupid people with stupid money.

that's a good deal. I just bought some .223 brass cartridges for $15 a box of 20. I went ahead a got another 30 round magazine for $15.00 too.

I've decided that 2013 will be the "Year of the AK" for me. I originally planned on getting an AR-15 and a pistol before getting anything else. But I'll wait until later to get those.

I ordered some AK-47 and AK-74 mags to start with. I probably paid a little too much, but I'd rather have some mags in my possession, just in case the politicians end up banning hi-cap mags.

Next up is a few of 1,080-round spam cans of 5.45 x 39. I missed out on a deal for $170 per can.

WTf did you get a 30rd mag for $15?

this! cheapest I can find is $30.

My buddy's reloading stuff finally showed up today - hopefully we'll be up and running by next weekend.

BTW, I found an old 15 round Glock 9mm mag from when I still had my 26. I have no use for it now. Tried to sell it on eBay but apparently the liberal ****s got to them because it was delisted. It's about 12 years old, but has been used very sparingly and is in excellent condition.

If anyone's interested, drop me a PM.

I didn't write anything down. I was paying attention to the SKS's and the lowest price one was 600.

But yeah. They were high. Dude I was sittin next to was recording all the prices and he said most of the ones I hadn't done any research on were 300 above retail for the most part. I didn't stay too long.

If you don't get any bites here, hang it on Craigslist. I have had the same thing happen with Ebay. I listed some brass at one point and they pulled it, claiming it was live ammo. They did that with three pictures of the brass in the listing. :spock:

I expected as much.

Emotion runs high at an auction, but 600 for an SKS is down right idiotic.

I go to a few farm auctions and business auctions and most used tools will sale for near their new price. :facepalm:

It wasn't just one SKS, it was like 8 of them.

And sometimes, there are some deals to be had at some auctions, it's hit or miss on the farms stuff. But these were pretty absurd.

The thing that surprised me was the stuff that is going to be subject to the bans or restrictions weren't all that much higher than the standard stuff. I thought there would be a pretty good premium for the stuff that could be exposed to the bans. But all of it was high.

Heads up for anybody wanting some 20-round or 30-round aluminum AR-15 mags. Widener's has some in stock for the moment.

More mags for you AR-15

http://www.luckygunner.com/accessories/magazines

i WAS THIS CLOSE TO BUYING one before all hell broke loose, I wish I had bought it

Thanks for the heads up 10 on the way. $20 a pop is a decent price at this point. Now I just have to wait out a decent deal on more .223 ammo.

Ok ... How many mags should we have just in case of a Zombie apocalypse?

I buy a lot of mine for investment. I was watching some of these go for $100 a pop two weeks ago. Wait it out until the next scare and cash in. It beats the hell out of the ROI on stocks. I made a killing on some AR's and AK's two weeks ago.

This is an idea

Anybody got a hookup for big boxes of .22LR ammo?

Thinking ahead and staying level headed in emotional times can pay for a lot of vacations and toys. :)

I know nothing about this site but this is what I found

http://www.fivesevenammo.com/shop/page12.html

LMAO

I was just getting ready to post that it's out there, but they are damn proud of it. I was able to snag up a bunch of ammo right when this last scare started. (For all my weapons) Still waiting it out for .223 to go down, but I have 1400 rounds for that now.

I have about 750 rounds 7.62x39 200 rounds of 45.acp 200 rounds of 9mm 50 rounds of .38 special 20 rounds of .25 and about 500 rounds of 22lr

9mm is hard to find for me...

Hell yeah! Flipping Cheaperthandirt.com is selling 30-rd PMags for $99. They were selling them for $50 not even 2 weeks ago.

They need to change their name, kinda pissed me off they suspended sales to wait to see what the market for the stuff was going to do.

As of last week, the local Cabela's still had a bunch of 9mm. The 10mm for my Glock is what's hard to run down at a reasonable cost. I caught a sale last summer and bought 800 rounds, so I'm good there.

I used cheaperthandirt quite a lot before the panic but they have lost me as customer going forward. Price gouging ****ers. :#

Damn right... Me too

Looks like I may be able to grow a ZZ Top beard by the time they show up. I hope they have them in stock and are not pulling a Botach.

Likewise, at this point they can kiss my ass.

Find me the best price on some AK47 mags....

I have yet to find one thing that Cheaper than Dirt has a good deal on.

I have never bought anything from them, and never will.

Yeah, that must be some expensive goddamn dirt they're talking about.

I've bought a couple of things from them over the years, but now I basically view them with the same contempt as the overpriced local gun store I won't ever do business with again.

WTF? ROFL

They only have them for 9mm. :shake: If they had them in 10mm, I think would have to invest.

I'm thinking about buying a 10mm glock but am curious on the ammo situation, can you update me on this?

:drool:

You can still get the high end ammo, but the plinker stuff has dried up for now.

I'm pretty sure she has an orgasm after shooting in one of his other videos.
