What have you bought in the last 48 hours gun related?

Safe in!!

 

Nice work centering on the platform. My mild OCD is at rest.

 

I don't know why safe companies do this. Very rarely is a safe designed to accommodate the number they advertise unless they're all shotguns or hunting rifles with no optics or pistol grips. Usually why they always recommend buying bigger than you need, especially if you have any intention of buying more in the future.

 

Same with tents!

 

I use these, and can get more than rated capacity

Currently using a Secure-It cabinet system until we move and I can custom build a gun closet.

 

Can someone talk me out of this? I can't hardly even find bullets for .243 to load with, much less ammo, and when I do 100 bullets (not ammo) runs ~$50. This might be a touch long to stabilize in a 1:10 twist, but I could probably rig something up to take a little space in the nose if I run into that. It also seems that you can't push cast bullets quite as fast as jacketed but these are recessed for gas checks so that will let me push em a little bit faster than without. And people are powder coating them now instead of using traditional lube so there isn't lube grooves in these for that reason. And they have a 5 cavity option which could really crank out a bunch of free bullets in a hurry.

Tl/Dr: does anyone else cast bullets?

So best I can tell, jacketed 115 gr bullets are 1.3" based on this grid, and those cast bullets are just 1.06 oal so it should stabilize cuz that would put it around the 100 gr length which is what I currently shoot

 

Fort Knox make some very nice safes!

 

lol.... mine too

 

Still much better to have some (presumably the ones worth more) than none locked up.
I need to be more diligent and looking for used ones, as I need another too.

 

That's a good idea. I remembered I have some left over wooden dowel rods that I can cut for my shorter barrels.

 

I didn't buy it but I did just get it shipped to me back from DD so I got to put everything back on it and some new stuff that I got while it was gone. My DD mk18 upper on LMT lower.
I like thic ladies....

 

ugh, wish mine was this big, lol. Cant fit all mine in mine anymore. Some not pictured. Need to get it out of my shop too, lol. Yes i have a roomba in my shop, lol. And an old dresser

 

Also, decent price ammo sale if you have a Sportsmans Warehouse near you.

 

Anyone have a Henry US Survival AR-7 semi-auto rimfire? I am not in the market currently but I may be within the a year.

 

Yes, what do you want to know about it?

Its really more a novelty for me.
Ive shot it twice, if I want to shoot a .22 rifle Ill grab my CZ452 or the henry lever action. For a semi I still grab my old 10/22.

 

I like the idea of the pack-ability, do you keep it assembled or packed? Is it any less accurate than another Henry 22?

 

Its packed up, not as accurate as other .22 rifles but really its fine for what its supposed to be. An emergency or truck gun that you only shoot on occasion.

If I wanted a packable .22 the newer take down 10/22 with a magpul stock is what I would go for. Better accuracy and more accessories for optics/barrel choices. I bought this for nostalgia as it was the first .22 rifle I ever shot as a kid.

 

Took advantage of 12% off at Primary Arms and ordered an MRO (green).

Shout out to @OnePuttBlunder for the heads-up on the promo.

 

This showed up today. 11.5". Standard Flash Hider is coming off and I'll be installing the YHM QD Mini Flash Hider along with YHM Kurz Adapter for the Turbo K. Want to keep it as short as possible. That should be out of jail any day now.
