Coward.
Terrorist.
Evil right wing gun nut.
Redneck.
<all other moronic names the left wing jackasses come up with>

Nice. Always good to add another AR to the mix. Every real American should have one.

SPY · 12-09-2006, 5:45 PM

Thats funny ****! Cant wait to shoot it later today! It is so clean, Only had 200 rounds through it!

phobiaphobe · 12-09-2006, 5:51 PM

What's a BMF like that worth?

What's a BMF? (Bad mutha F'er?)

Pretty hard to beat an AR as a Christmas present.

If you get a new upper you can get all the evil features now, and stock up on 30 rounders (while you know you can).

I just put together an AR with a Stag upper and ARMS BUIS with A2 front sight (perfect for a co-witnessing EOTech set up). The upper is sweet, and they're only $495.

Red Rider · 12-09-2006, 6:08 PM

Nice! You must've been a good boy this year! Sure wish Santa would bring me toys like that...

Hammer · 12-09-2006, 6:09 PM

Nice, now go get an AK-47 to actually do some shooting.

Checked ammo prices lately? They're almost the same...

AKs are pretty cool, but I like shooting my pogo stick better.

MrX954 · 12-09-2006, 6:14 PM

Try not to shoot your eye out.

j/k....sweeeeeeeeeeet gift. I got my present for myself this week, but its not nearly as nice.

Seriously! Did not really expect to get it yet... came into some extra cash so Why not??? Oh and I plan on getting as many 30 rounders as I can! Which should be quite a bit. ( When I do I will put up a post... and take orders. They will be free of course, just pay for shipping)

I cant wait to start customizing it more... it is sooooo sweet. The EOTech setup is awsome, dont know if I am going to go with a different upper or just get railed hand gaurds.

Yea? what is it? Dano came over last night and was checking it out... Again I have yet another thing that he USED to have... He was pouting

He is going back home soon too.

smoothrideronli · 12-09-2006, 6:36 PM

ITs so hard to get something like that in NY...

Have fun, still limited to 10 rounds here in Cali, and any stuff you may have had before the ban.

Both Obama and Clinton are rabidly anti-gun, if either makes the White House with a Demo Congress...it will be tough to avoid another AWB.

You gotta have connections. I currently have over 2,000 rounds. Last time I bought them i payed under $100 for 1,000 rnds and it was under 1 year ago, you just have to wait till they have them in stock. And have the old add address.

luvtolean · 12-09-2006, 7:09 PM

If you have that kind of connection, I recommend you buy a couple more cases...and ship them to me.

It runs about $160/1000 for nasty, crappy, underloaded Wolf.

.223 is about $200/1000 for much higher quality ammo that you can hit what you actually AIM at.

At that price, my AR does most of my talking.

ElectricMotorcy · 12-09-2006, 7:35 PM

Hey, I got new toys just recently too! I might actually get back into reloading. Let me rephrase that: I might actually HAVE to get back into reloading.

Not pictures of actual items (don't have camera).

reminds me I need to add another 1-2 to my collection (if I had one)

As a guy living in a state where until a small group of people interpreted a favorable, few year old court decision and realized we could again buy ARs and AKs (AND withstood some incorrect policing/arrests by our DOJ), I can tell you, if you think you might ever want something like that, buy it now.

does an SKS count? Of course I REALLY want a 44 or 357 revolver with a longish barrel to keep my 9mm's company, though a .308 to keep my 30 06, 30-30, SKS, 22's and shotguns company would be nice.... if I had any guns

BDA116 · 12-09-2006, 8:35 PM

(take a peek at what the District of Columbia is trying to put in front of The Supremes as well)

luvtolean · 12-09-2006, 8:38 PM

SKS's fall into a weird area.

Depends on how the bill is written. You can buy them in Cali, but if you make some of the common mods to them, like change it to a choate/thumbhole stock, or change it to use detachable magazines, somehow it magically gets categorized into the mythical, politically created term "Assault Weapon", killer of babies and arbiter of all that is evil...and felonious to own.

Very important case that one.

Also, the UN recently proposed the innocuously titled "Global Arms Trade Treaty", which all countries except the US voted in favor of. This would limit American privately held firearms.

Here's our repugnant senator's letter to Condy who voted nay.

Fourteen Senators Call for U.S. Involvement in United Nations Global Arms Trade Treaty

BDA116 · 12-09-2006, 8:51 PM

Sheesh. That is disgusting.
I don't have much good to say about anyone trying to submit the citizens of the United States to rule under the useless united nations.

I wish we'd just leave that worthless anti-American good ol' boys club and kick them of that prime piece of real estate.
Let them set up shop in Haiti or Somalia.

luvtolean · 12-09-2006, 8:57 PM

It wasn't just her (though FedEx'ing her and Boxer away would make me very happy), it was signed by:

The letter was signed by Senators Feinstein, Patrick Leahy (D-Vt.), Jim Jeffords (I-Vt.), Richard Durbin (D-Ill.), John Kerry (D-Mass.), Carl Levin (D-Mich.), Barbara Boxer (D-Calif.), Daniel Akaka (D-Hawaii). Frank Lautenberg (D-N.J.), Byron Dogan (D-N.D.), Russell Feingold (D-Wis.), Barbara Mikulski (D-Md.), and Tom Harkin (D-Iowa).

Then my Yougoslavian made SKS with the grenade launcher and bayonet would not be welcome in Cali?
