Congratulations! The guy in the lane next to me last week had one of those. Until I peeked around the lane divide, I thought he must have a 105 howitzer. I almost suggested he go see Krause for some expert advice on the installation of a silencer. i think he had this one, or one with the same finish: http://cdn2.armslist.com/sites/armsl...t_eagl_640.jpg I've got the baby sister of yours coming in the mail: http://www.cdnnsports.com/colt-1911-...l#.VMjOxDstHL8 A .50 cal would be perfect for your famous squirrel/groundhog/mouse hunts for the dinner pot. I notice you've made a comment to almost every post of mine. Do I need to drag out the 'obsessed with me' line again? He's a mess and can't help it. |

You overpaid. Also, some outlets offer much better shipping prices than others. Here's a 30-cent round place, plus $18 shipping, for 500 rounds... http://www.luckygunner.com/556x45-55...s#rid=AmmoSeek There were some less expensive sources. -- Proud to be a Liberal. |

I doubt your AR will even use stripper clips. I can see why you don't mess with them. My M1A can directly charge the magazine in the gun from the top with a stripper clip and the bolt kicks it out of the holder when you close it. The PMAGs I use can be loaded with stripper clips. I have no reason to do that, though. I agree, that is not that big a deal if you are just loading on the bench but being able to load the mag in the gun is handy. You can get 10 rounds in the gun almost as fast as a magazine change, either charging a dry mag or just topping one up. It is the way you deal with zombie pop bottle attacks ;-) I really have not done this at the range because I usually just take 3 or 4 charged magazines (30s) with me and that is about all I want to shoot that gun before I want to try something else. These days I only go when the electrical contractors association have their "shoot". (a day of eating, socializing and networking at the range) Typically I will shoot 90 or 120 rounds of 308, 2 boxes of 12ga and a box each of .45 and one of either 9mm or 380. That gets "shooting" out of my system for a while. I drive to the ranges with my firearms in their cases/bags, my mags empty, and my ammo in a separate range bag. Driving around here with loaded mags will get you in a heap of trouble if you are stopped by the boys in blue for any reason. It's no big deal to load up a PMAG or a Ruger Mark III mag. Even if you have a concealed carry permit? I can drive around with a loaded handgun on my person or anywhere in the vehicle where I have direct control. Long guns are different. They have to be in a locked case and unloaded. |
