I bought 800 rounds of 22LR, yesterday, it took about 10 minutes from start to finish

Not sure, it’s been replaced by a receiver mounted fully adjustable Williams peep sight

I picked up a CZ 457 Jaguar, from my LGS today. I had ordered it about 6 months ago, after some delay, it arrived. I had forgotten how long the barrel is, I’m not thrilled with the name carved into the side, I think it looks rather cheesy, but it is what it is. I’m going to the range tomorrow...

C’mon, a NYS politician suspected of criminal acts, who woulda thunk that!!

About 6-8 months ago I ordered a Bergara B-14R Carbon, a carbon wrapped threaded barreled 22LR, with a fiberglass stock, with an adjustable check riser. It was back ordered again and again, I basically given up on it, Friday the LGS, called and asked if I was still interested, I said yes, they...

Around lunch time I went to the outdoor, pistol/rifle range. A little usual occurrence, no Rimfires, I shot the Ruger PC Carbine, using the Ruger sights I shot Igman (Bosnia) 124gr FMJ and Dogwood (USA) 115gr FMJ I shot a box of each ammo, without a single issue Sun was out, 60* with a...

As I don’t own any pistols and have about 8 of the SR9 mags, I left with the Ruger mag insert.

As mine ended up

I read all of the maps, I’m now confused where I live…………

I found the the Magpul PC backpacker takedown stock, through a distributor, hopefully here by the weekend. I had bought some cheap 124 gr FMJ ammo from Eastern Europe, based on cheap brass ammo criteria, enough to get started, but not huge amounts, now the quest for decent ammo starts, looking...

I just looked, they make a backpacker stock specifically for the PPC, I originally read that it fit into the 10/22 stock. Sorry for the brain fade or senior moment.

Is this a bolt in switch or is this a major modification to get this to fit

I understand that, as I have no Glocks and have 2 of the Ruger mags given to me, Ruger is the way I’m going. Being able to switch is a great feature

Yesterday I ventured to the LGS to pick up my parts order, what came home was my order and a new Ruger PC Carbine and 500 rounds of 9 mm ammo. This is the first centerfired firearm I’ve ever bought, scads of 22LR based rifles, no pistols, and the first one I’ve fired in about 40 yrs. The...

I’ve been known to shop there

I’ll have to go get some Aguila SE SV, as I just got rid of the crappy CCI SV. As 90-95% of what I shoot is mini-mags.

Out of a clear blue sky, I received a package from Ruger, enclosed was the replacement knob, the previously said they could/would not send me and a hat. Apparently they changed their minds, no note, no packing slip, just the knob and the hat. I would like to Thank Ruger, it greatly appreciated...

$275

Yesterday I went to the LGS to pick up my order, on the used rack was a very good looking Remington Mohawk 10C, 22LR rifle, it came with multiple mags. It was part of a estate clean out. the owner sold it to me dirt cheap, so it came home with me. I downloaded a manual and a few articles, so...

I found an original knob

As I said a very long twisted story,

I appreciate you help, but I don’t want an aftermarket one, I want an original one, I want a 7 to be the same

It’s a long and twisted story, but I now own 7 of the Ruger Precision Rimfires, the last one was used. The previous owner of #7 has replaced the bolt knob with a hideously large fluted bolt knob, I called Ruger today, while it is a simple screw on part, is not available as a part. According to...

My cousin was the head cook at the Oneida Community Mansion House, for many years. I took care of the boilers in numerous Oneida Ltd buildings

I’m a member over there

For quite a while, I’ve had a Henry AR-7, but I’m hardly impressed by it, it works and I find it pretty so-so. Last week I ordered a Tactual Solutions Owyhee (Oh-Wah-Hee) bolt action 22LR takedown rifle. It uses a Ruger BX-1 rotary mag, a threaded aluminum barrel with a steel liner, a modified...

So far I’ve shot it 3 different times, the reload was awkward the first time, I found a easy way of doing it, so while not exactly easy, not terrible either. I’m was quite surprise how well it ran.

I took the 15-22, along with a Ruger Precision Rimfire and a Savage Mk II FV-SR, to shoot it, I blew through about 350 rounds of CCI AR Tactical ammo. All of the rifles shot flawlessly, not a single issue with the ammo. 3-4 hrs at the range, had a great time, was going to stay longer, but toes...

I’m not sure I would ever have not bought it new, but used, at the price asked, was another story. It had the mag lock or pin in it, when it got it. I’m usually more of a bolt action type of guy

You live and you learn, they charged me $20

Over a year ago, I bought a slightly used S&W MP 15-22 Sport, dirt cheap. I bought it partially in an attempt to entice the younger 2 grandsons into shooting and as a fun plinkster. I shot about 1-2 hundred rounds, while fun to shoot, it’s hardly a target rifle, at this point the mag spring...

50 feet indoors, 10 shots at a 1” bullseye, open/iron sights, off hand

It’s 40* outdoors and was roughly 24* indoors, darn chilly. I got here early, knowing it was going to be cold and would need warm up time I took an iPad to keep up with goings on. I got there about 7 am, the range was completely empty, I was alone until about 10 am. By 11:30 I was alone again...

Every Friday at the Chinese Buffet, after buying lunch, they feel obligated to help, they had to move it 50Feet, with a appliance cart, I did not over tax them. I worked harder moving an engine for one guys car last week

I keep buying 22LR rifles, I need storage space

Because it make me feel better

Okay ATTACH=full]146602[/ATTACH]

Yesterday I bought one of the #57039, the larger of the 2 gun safes sold by Harbor Freight. After the usual Friday Chinese Buffet Day, and some great weather, I got the safe moved into the house, with some help from the other diners. I spent the afternoon, getting it in place and loaded up.

I was torn between going to the old hometown range, 60 miles away in Camden, with a heated indoor range and driving 6 miles to the unseated indoor range. With the daughter’s family battling Covid, which ruled out any visiting, I decided to shot locally. According to the car, it was 11* outdoors...

At about 9:30 pm, this evening I headed to the range. It was about 5* outside and about 28* indoors. The whole facility was empty, not a soul anywhere. Tonight’s rifle was the #4 example of the Christensen Arms Ranger 22. The ammo used was the CCI HP mini-mags The new CAR 22 was perfect, not...

After a 1/2 box of Fruit Loops for supper, I ventured to the range. It’s 28* outside and 28* inside, but no wind or snow. It was cold. I had to stop twice and warm up the finger tips. Not a soul anywhere to be seen in the indoor range, the indoor archery range was packed. Today was a Savage...

I’m sorry

Got up early drove the 60 miles to the old home range to meet up with a couple of friends to shoot. Apparently there was some serious miscommunication, as I was the only one who showed up. So what the hell, I shot by myself. Indoor range was about 60*, weather outside was 24*, with occasional...

Woke up earlish, packed up some stuff and headed for the range (Camden) about 60 miles from me. In my old hometown (maybe future hometown). The plan was to shoot and to visit the daughter and the grandsons. About 10 miles from the village my daughter called, one of the boys has dome kind of flu...

I’m buying the scraps, busted cases, damaged boxes open boxes. They are not going to ship me pallets of ammo.

I have some friends who work for a couple of wholesalers

A while back I started to use CCI AR Tactical because I got a deal on a damaged case, basically a solid nose mini-mag with a different shaped copper washed bullet. Who’s main purpose was to solve feeding issues in AR based 22LR rifles. I found it works great in all of my semi-auto and bolt...

Between leg/back cramps and nightmares, last night was total crap, I was up and about permanently at 3:30 am, at the range by 4:15 am. Due to the early hour, not a sole was anywhere to be found, I had the whole facility to myself. Today was a Christensen Arms Ranger 22 day, I brought the 3 I...

Woke up this morning and looked at the clock, it was about 10:30 am, massive over sleep. Got up ate a pack of Pop-Tarts and went to the range. Today was a Savage day, Savage BVNSXP-SR (Wal-Mart Special #3) Savage Mk II BV-SR Minimalist (#3 green) Shot CCI AR Tactical and Federal Auto-Match...

If you load the bad mag, with 10 rounds, the first 8 rounds shoot perfectly the last 2 rounds, are loose in the mag, not enough spring pressure to lift them rounds up to the correct height. I’m not a 5 round mag guy, I need to shoot 10 shots per target, the last thing I want to do is have to...
