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 box came with an attachment for the clip.

I have a couple of those magazine loader "spoons" John was talking
about but I have never used them. I always load the magazines from
loose rounds. I do have some battle packs in strippers but I haven't
even opened the bags. I have a bunch more in strippers in a can but I
haven't got down to shooting them either. I am still working on stuff
that was boxed. If you just stack them in a 30 cal ammo can in
alternate directions you get almost 400 rounds in there that way.

I don't recall anything about a loader 'spoon'. I have some stripper clips for the
Mosin Nagant, but don't use them. Hell, it takes more time to load the clip and then
load the rifle than to just load the rifle.

Besides, the extra time used for loading the rifle enables one to think on what a
****ty shot one is!

I had an optometry appointment Thursday. We talked about shooting. Told him that I
could see sights and a blurry target with computer glasses, or see a sharp target and
very blurry sights with the distance glasses. I asked if he could write a
prescription to enable both with the same glasses.

He looked at me and simply said, "No."


If you have the ability to shoot with both eyes open, there is the
solution that works for me. My lasik'd distance vision is good in both
eyes, but since I am creaky and old, I need reading glasses
for...reading...or to clearly see the sights on a pistol or rifle.

So...I have a reading lens on the right eye side of the glasses and
either no lens or a clear lens on the left eye. Somehow what is left of
my creaky brain is able to "merge" what I see so that I can easily and
clearly see the firearm sights *and* the target.

Your mileage may vary.

I only shoot a rifle with one eye. Pistol and shotgun are with both
eyes open. I do use reading (1.50) glasses but I see well enough close
up to pick up the front sight and that is really all you need.

At the range yesterday the target was a 1" red dot on a paper plate 25 yards away. I
could focus on the front sight easily, but the red dot was just a dark blur on a
white blur - with the computer glasses.

That is why god invented scopes ;-)

The new (old) Mosin Nagant will come so equipped, thank God.

Yawn.

One more time. Some years ago, a poster in this newsgroup who was out
of control and apparently still is, made some direct and indirect
threats of violence towards me and to other posters here. In my case,
it was also hinted the violence would be perpetrated upon me by a
motorcycle gang member.

I took the threats seriously and contacted law enforcement in his area.
Two officers were dispatched to talk to the fellow. I reported all the
communications to the local and state police authorities here, who
also took them seriously. It was suggested I apply for a carry permit.
My lawyer said he could handle the application and other paperwork. I
said "Sure, go ahead." That's all there was to it. For me, the process
itself was a lark, since *I* really didn't have to do much and it gave
me a smile.

LOL, bull****. You falsified police reports and trolled to get a permit...






You forget a lot of things. Paying taxes aside, you called the police

Wow!

This is highly amusing coming from you, Johnny.
It wasn't all that long ago you were crying like a school girl because someone supposedly called your house and used some foul language.
First you blamed it on Ohio Jim and after you and your posse tarred and feathered him, and ran him off, you next tried to pin the offence on Dickson.

Rather than spending a lot of money tricking out a Mosin, you might
consider getting a different gun entirely. There are some pretty good
223s around that are extremely accurate and more fun to shoot. The
jury is still out on mine but it's not exactly my favorite gun at this
