What gift?
So, this is the deal: You can only get one gift this year. It will be gun-related. It will cost less than $100.00. You will be exceedingly pleased to receive it. What's your pleasure?
I'll start off:
Book- "Marlin Firearms: A History of the Guns and the Company that Made Them" by William S. Brophy
About $55.00 or so new at Amazon.

I'm easy, a brick of CCI MiniMags. Maybe two if you can get them for less than $50.

Government office attracts the power-mad, yet it's people who just want to be left alone to live life on their own terms who are considered dangerous.
History teaches that it's a small window in which people can fight back before it is too dangerous to fight back.

I would be happy with lead, bullets, cci musket caps for my sharps, or a swiveless sling for my favorite levergun

Powder
Re: What gift?
Agreed. I'd love to have about $100 worth of powder. That would be about 5 lbs, I guess.

+1 -- make mine three bricks of .22cal anything... :)jeepnik wrote:I'm easy, a brick of CCI MiniMags. Maybe two if you can get them for less than $50.
Re: What gift?
Yep, I can make most anything else, and I have a pretty good supply of parts. But, I've really had to curtail my .22 rimfire use. I've read it possible to reload .22 rimfires. But the hassle just wasn't worth it. Seems like some enterprising fellow could come up with a set of dies, molds for the bullets (heck most of us cast anyway), and a way to prime them (maybe some was to spin the case and a priming compound paste).30wcf wrote:+1 -- make mine three bricks of .22cal anything...jeepnik wrote:I'm easy, a brick of CCI MiniMags.

Re: What gift?
Funny thing, I still hear a lot of complaints on obtaining .22 ammo. Relax, as it's coming. Due to location and previous years buying, my bud is always the first to get allotments and anything new and it grows from there. He has pallets of .22 Remington and .22 CCI ammo now.
And yes, I see that many people have run out of money and the inventory of all things guns is building.
When the Republicans take over the Senate and gain even more seats in the House during the midterm elections, prices will drop.------6

I just want health and togetherness for my family; if it takes $100 worth of ammo for a get-together-shoot like we often have in spring and fall (and summer and winter), then so be it...
