Re: It seems UNAmmo is gone

Wow I was literally waiting for my next day off to pick up some 7.62x39 blanks and an ak golf ball launcher. Oh well. Can't wait for Biden to make online ammo sales illegal. We're royally screwed now.

Re: Savage's new straight pull action

"But, that's the great thing about the gun industry...no shortage of customers with large wallets looking for the next shinny object to grab their attention." I don't know how that doesn't sound condescending but hey, what do I know. "Is your bolt action too slow? Train to be more eff...

Re: Savage's new straight pull action

Solution looking for a problem. But, that's the great thing about the gun industry...no shortage of customers with large wallets looking for the next shinny object to grab their attention. Expect to see more of these "accidentally leaked" videos. Last week it was the KelTec P50, this week...

Re: Savage's new straight pull action

yup, looks like it's released on their website

savagearms.com/impulse

MSRP 1449, was really hoping for a 7mm Mag offering but it looks like I'll have to get by with a 300 win mag.

Re: "Alexa, we need guns." (video)

Then when they get the next software update: Alexa we need guns. I'm sorry Dave I'm afraid I can't do that.

Pretty neat though, I would have chosen BFG Division from DOOM 2016 as my song.

Savage is doing some hard core purging of any information regarding this rifle. I think someone at Savage is now looking for a new job.

Re: Savage's new straight pull action

Finally a US straight pull rifle that isn't a neutered AR with no gas system. I can't wait until that comes out. The only other options are boutique Euro-fag rifles that start around 3K. If it's anything like their ultralite pricing I'm guessing around the 1,200 mark.

Re: Pistol Braces- Straight from the ATF

ATF is backing down for now but we know they'll be back sooner rather than later. I can only imagine they are cooking up something else even worse.

Re: Stupid, stupid question about holes.

Ugh. Poly lowers sucked then and they will still suck now. There's a reason Stoner designed them with the metals he chose. And I don't recall ever seeing the military using poly lowers in their armories. Stoner used what he did because the technology of the time restricted him. Remember the origina...

Carcano Single Shot Adapters

With the flood of Carcano carbines on the market I figured this would be relevant. I love mine. It's 3D printed and will work with 6.5 or 7.35 Carcano. It feeds a round perfectly into the chamber. He also makes one for the Berthier if interested. The Post office lost my first one and he sent a secon...

Re: How long should you keep an FFL holding a transfer?

I'm about to go on a trip out of state for 2 weeks and an online importer I've done business with in the past just listed some stuff I'm interested in and implied it's in short supply. Would it be acceptable or appropriate to order it now and have the receiving FFL hold it for probably a week or lo...

Re: They're coming for the pistol braces

All the firearms? Or just the ones that have braces or were made from an 80 percent? And Tim is a bit of a drama queen. Actually a lot of a drama queen, right up there with the Yankee Marshal. By the way, yelling at anyone is not going to change the ATF's stance. Put down the pitchforks and don't l...

Re: From the producers of JOHN WICK,....

Funny how hollywood talks about taking away our guns but produces nothing but movies involving guns. Haven't been in a theatre since The Great Raid in 2005. Don't be seduced by a slice of bread and a circus performance.

Re: AK Experts

So parts kits only for now, that's fair given the state of 2020. I have a stock Arsenal slr-107 I wanted to get done up by RD but Jim sold the company so I just sat on it.
