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

just picked up a s&w fpc folding carbine. haven't had a chance to take it to play yet. need a red dot and then hopefully a good day for the range. https://www.smith-wesson.com/product/fpc
currently on sale for 599 at dunhams.

 

I would call the Police

 

dont worry, I have kitchen mitts that work better than the three they sent me.

 

$1100 mitt and they threw in some metal tube that fits on my gun.

Came with the suppressor shipment from SilencerShop.

 

Yea they are pretty thin. Not much filling. I wouldn't use it to pick up a really hot pan that was in the oven.

 

Need to get an optic next

 

Well I didn't buy any of these but I did have an uncle pass and he left me some stuff. He was SF in Vietnam and loved guns. He was probably all of 140 lbs and 5'6 but one of the toughest men I knew and feared nothing. He will be missed. Some of these guns I actually found and bought for him. We had to search all over his house for these even though he had a safe only half his guns where in it.

 

Sorry to hear about your uncle.

I'm sure his legacy is in good hands.

 

I’m sorry too. He sounds like someone I would’ve liked to know.

 

Thank you. He lived an exciting full life. No regrets. What more could one ask for.

 

lol, yup that basically sums it up. Also just so many redundant things. Probably found the equivalent to 20 pieced together cleaning kits for various guns. 2 sets of sai's (3 pronged weapons) so many hatchets and blades. Just soooooo muchs stuff. The osama bin laden/ sadam hussein russian nesting doll set made me laugh though. Lots of little randomness like that everywhere

 

I shutter to think what my family is going to say about me when I'm gone...

 

This did give me a glimpse into the future of what my son and daughter will experience haha. Hopefully I'll leave things a little more organized though.

 

Just ordered a taurus tx22 competition scr.

Bs laws just changed here in Michigan. Need a purchase permit that you apply for at the local police station, then get a form notarized, then you pick up your purchase permit after 3 days and a background check, then you can go purchase your gun.

 

My wife's uncle passed about 2 years ago, we had already been helping go through the hoard. We loaded a whole trailer full of firearms, ammo, reloading supplies.

Problem was, he didn't leave a will. Instead of people getting what he had wanted them to , most of it was auctioned off. Dam shame

 

I see this all the time, or someone comes by and writes a check for pennies on the dollar to take everything. Family members turn them in because they dont want them, etc...

Get it in your will, spell things out.

 

I had some broken receivers that I turned into a buyback because they actually pay you money for a destroyed gun, and there were people handing in a few Wilson Combats that looked like they sold easily north of $6000 when new. I wonder if the LEOs keep those for themselves?

 

You do? I don't. I saw at least 4 uzis in a photo of one of the last busts. I know they aren't getting sawed in half.

 

Larger metropolitan departments they are destroyed unfortunately. If someone there is a gun guy they will try to get it for the armory but its not worth it to try and snag for yourself even if you are just trying to save a rare gun. The guns are escorted to the foundry/crushing facility, if they do disappear its usually the people contracted to destroy the guns that snake them which is also illegal.

There are multiple eyes watching what gets checked in to make sure they get destroyed.

Most ive seen is some of the guys will try to explain how much something is worth and suggest a dealer to help sell it.
