They use them for blowing the locks out of steel drughouse doors. Mark E. Williams PS...If you do get some be sure to hide them as they are illegal. |

It's useless for anything except paper target shooting. For fleshy targets use an expansive type round such as hollow points, Nosler Partitions, Grand Slams, etc. For punching through steel use AP rounds (armour piercing): http://patsreloading.com/patsrel/whatsnew.htm What are the pirate boats made of? I thought you were a gunners mate? Amen! |

The skipper had success with a shotgun, the attackers were probably using AK's. Pretty heavy and can't be broken down, but you could go with a Barrett, keep them at bay from a distance, fer sure, shotgun for close in work. John Cairns |

Gunny.........I dont think so. Bos'n mate 2nd class.
Most pirate boats are e made of fiberglass over plywood right? That and steel. I will check out the AP rounds, have a bunch of FMJ's will use them at the range plinking. What about rifle type? Needs to get around corners fast, NATO rounds, light, knockdown power, good in a salty soup, can reach out and touch someone, what do you think should be aboard? Joe |

I need to get one of these....

For you:
Get a Ruger Mini 14 or Mini 30 in stainless steel. http://www.ruger-firearms.com/Firear...ifle&special=N Buy two if you can. Ms. Terry can handle one. Get a lot of large capacity magazines. Buy the Russian ammo by Wolf. Varnished steel cases, good but inexpensive. Don't get the gay folding stocks. Use a real stock and aim at what you intend to hit. Use real marksmanship and practice. You might want to look at shotguns too. Also a compound bow for silent work, but you have to learn to shoot a bow and practice regularly. For real firepower get an HK 91. They are expensive. http://www.hkpro.com/hk91.htm Amen! "Joe" wrote in message oups.com... Gunny.........I dont think so. Bos'n mate 2nd class.

Dont care for russian varnished steel. The powder is to corrosive, even
with my chrome lining... and the varnish can cause jamming in a very hot barrell. Still have a 1000 rd tin I picked up at a gun show. When you open them it's best to use them up fast. I like most H&K rifles and the Ruger carbines good choices. Joe |

What gun are you using the Russian ammo in?

When in H.S. we found it great sport to pour a few spoonfull of gasoline down some victim's crack then flick your Bic -- very entertaining in a crowded hallway. Carried the gas in small bottles. One fool tried a balloon. Gas ate the rubber and balloon broke saturating his pocket. Then ..... |

Very effective yrt safe at 3' and under ... which is about as far back as a DEA agent can get and still hit a door. No shape charge needed. |
