I would like to, but I don't have a way of getting a pass. On AR15.com, they do a thread each year with pictures, etc.

Yeah, I hate how ammo is on backorder.

Whats worse is my permit will be comming in the next 2 weeks.

There is a place down here in FL that cuts the 120 day wait period down to 14 days. Only issue is its about 2 hours away. But 4 hour drive is a hell of a lot better than 4 month wait. WOOT

Dude just got my permit in the mail the other day, mine took about 75 days. Was glad to finally get it. Nice to know there's some 230 grain hp's ready to rock if the proverbial s**t should hit the fan.

That is the gun that all other guns hope to live up to. I have one with 3500 rounds through it and it hasn't been cleaned once. It's a Glock it doesn't need to be cleaned. I have never had a FTF, or a jam. It is a perfect machine in every way. It may not be the sexiest pistol but no other gun has my trust like that one does. It is the one that protects me and my family.

DonniePaul · 09-07-2009, 08:07 PM

Here we go!

I have more but here is a start

Here is my 30/40 Krag. Made in 1902. Got this from my dad for my 16th birthday. It will still take the head off a Zombie at 100 yards with iron sights.

This is my grandfathers 1930 1911A1. He gave it to me in the late 90s before he passed away.

And some 22s from my last camping trip. my 1974 Ruger 10/22 and my Wifes SigSauer Mosquito.

There will be more. Lots more.......

elderboy02 · 09-07-2009, 08:28 PM

Awesome man!

DonniePaul · 09-08-2009, 04:23 PM

My S&W 5906 Hi Cap 9mm

This was the first handgun I bought. I have a 30 round clip for it too. Just in case the zombies invade. Very accurate and fun to shoot.

This was before I put the walnut grips on it. I have to take some new pics.

And one broken down

DonniePaul · 09-08-2009, 07:25 PM

One more post before bed time

My Hungarian PA63. Shoots 9X18. Fun for plinking.

My Dad and I have matching Nagant Revolvers. His is the 1938 mine is the 1939. For christmas 2 years ago he got me one and himself one.

There are more hiding in the safe......

That is awesome. I want a 1911, but to have it from your grandfather makes it that much better.

elderboy02 · 09-08-2009, 09:48 PM

Is that PA63 C&R license eligible?

Yes. It is great to have the connection to him. I have my own 1911 for shooting. I keeps Grandpa's in the safe.

My Dad also has his 1911. He built it from parts from the frame up. He wanted to build it to understand every single part and how it works. took him about 6 months in his spare time. He has already told me I will get that one too someday. One from each generation to pass to my kids (whenever I get around to making some Kids).

PA63 is not C&R eligible unfortunately.

weak_link · 09-17-2009, 06:27 PM

New parts for the 10/22- Green Mountain bull barrel and a left handed Yukon stock. Needs new scope rings now though.

Wolfgang · 09-17-2009, 08:06 PM

I received my permit to carry after only 4 buisness days following turning in my paperwork! Score! 4 days sure beats 4 months.

I also finally found the components I need to start reloading. I will be taking lots and lots of notes.

I will be reloading 9mm with 124grain Speer hollow points and bullseye powder. Everything will be checked and double checked since this will be my first round of reloads

!
