Gun owners show what you have

Those things are awesome. Well worth the money, especially while it is still available.

 

A good machinest can actually fabricate a grease gun fairly easily, they are as simple as they come. Bad for hitting anything beyond 50 yards and even that is a big push, no safety (the cover latch is not dependable enough to count on). Just saying from personal experience. Tankers and Mech Infantry used to carry some of them in their TOE but they were not thought of highly, heck I would prefer a 12 G Pump Shotgun to one in a pinch.

 

Speaking of which, I wonder how a 3D printer will change gun manufacturing....

 

I've seen a printed AR lower on youtube that fired 5-6 shots before the buffer broke. ArtisanTony on youtube tried a couple times to print a lower and it didn't work well for him. If the technology is refined there's a lot of potential though.

 

Friggin A, time to invest in a printer.

 

On the topic of 3-D printing, here's a good VICE documentary. (Be sure to check out their other docos, they're really good)

Hmm, gotta say that I'd take an M3 over a shotgun any day, assuming that we're talking about a combative situation.

 

THis is not mine, but it is the exact same make and model as the one I own.



I got this about 15 years ago as a pistol for my late fiancee. She was only 5', so could only handle a small frame single stack pistol. And that was something I found almost impossible to find, until I found this one. I got my boss to order 5 of them, and they all sold pretty quickly.

 

9mm or .380?

 

1944 M1 Garand with born on serial numbers that match...

now get off my lawn please.

 

You also have a green gran torino?

 

.380. And it has actually been a pretty good little gun.

 

Picures?

Don't think anyone is going to top that joke. Go home guys. We're done here.

 

I hear allot of people say good things about Sigs. I've never been much of a pistol guy, so I'm wondering what's the big difference between a sig and a glock?

 

For the most part, I think it's due to personal preference and grip style. I used to despise glocks until the 3rd and 4th generation were released.(styling reasons)

I always wanted a Sig, but just couldn't find one for the right price. My buddy let me throw a couple of rounds down range in his p226, and it felt good with a nice natural grip angle. Then they released the p938, and I got it.

 

It looks pretty good, shoots well?

 

Actually it does, you just have to take good care of them. The Lorcin was not exactly a high-end gun, I think it cost me just over $100 brand new. And now the company is gone, an American company killed by stupid laws.

 

Out shooting one of my home builds, DPMS lower, LMT trigger parts and butstock, Spikes Tac ST-22 upper.

 

Let's see if I can get a link to my smugmug to work. I have so many weapons, but I will post some of what I think are the more interesting ones.

This is my prairie dogging AR. It's fluted, floated, all custom parts, and does 0.10 MOA from the bench.


A couple of my sidearms. The monster is a S&W 500 Magnum. Also in there is the original first run of S&W Model 29 in blue; which was used in the Dirty Harry movies. Difference is mine is 44 Mag, and the movies were filmed with a 41 Mag.


A pair of M1 Garand's from WW 2. One is from the Springfild Armory, and one from General Motors (Inland Motors).


A Thompson 1928A1. These were called "Tommy Guns" and gangsters loved them in the 1930s.


A pair of my M14's. The one in wooden furniture is the National Match version. Extremely accurate.


My Barrett M99A1 and one of my two Remington PSS Police Sniper Systems (M24). The Barrett weighs 30 lbs. without ammo!


My gun range. I made two stations (one for me, one for a friend) and a third station for prone and for BBQ'ing with friends. I have 25 yard pistol, 100 yard rifle, 250 yard rifle, 500 yard rifle, and a skeet thrower. I am cutting 1,000 yard rifle this summer for extreme range shooting.


An Israeli FN-FAL that was used in the Six Day War.

 

Try posting the pics again, Snappo.....I can only see the FN-FAL (or is it just me?)

 

The FAL is the only one showing up for me too.

 

yea, a lot of companies have closed up shop due to regulations, I just wish I had heard of that company before they closed, for that is an awesome price.

 

1944 Springfield M1 Garand



and I don't own a green Gran Torino

 

That's a beautiful rifle. My grandpa used to have an M1 carbine. He liked it better than the garand because it fit him better.

 

My Grandpa also had an M1, it was one of my favorites in his collection. I'd really like to have one.
