Bang Shootie conversation

Talked to a place I shop at a bunch today. Told me shotguns was about to shoot up in price, Government is stopping imports from Turkey.

Was a reason given?

Thought Ilion was about to start rolling out product again.

Was a reason given?

I wasn't given any proof other then his word on it. I tried looking it up, but couldn't find any info on it. He just seen me looking at a few and said they would be going up due to no more imports.

 

[C1500]

Scott got really lucky. Goes to show, wear that eye protection.

I always liked Scott, Matt, Brandon, Donut, Hickok, and the boys at Black Rifle Coffee.

The internet does what it does best.

trying to get some info online and I realized how many brands are built in Turkey. Maybe some companies like Mossberg and FN/Browning would move more production back here.

We need alot more firearms and ammo made in the U.S., I hate watching our once proud companies disappear.

K98 1944.

I’ve been on a dry spell for a year and now I’ve run into things I can’t live without. The well is bound to run dry soon.

 

[Orangeslice13]

Bought from the grandson of the guy who brought it back. He had nobody to pass it too and knows it will be respected here

He should be dead. I don't like the design of that 50 Bmg and then the S.L.A.P ammo is not supposed to be shot with a muzzle brake the plastic around the bullet gets hot and causes blockage I am surprised it didn't blow the muzzle off but I don't see how Scott lived.

My wife askes me all the time what I plan to do with all mine since we don't plan on ever having kids. I always say bury me with them, never know when commies will show up in the next life.
My biggest problem is everything I see I like. Some people like drinking, some smoking, me I like firearms. I don't know what it is about them, I just find them a work of art.

I'm not a fan of that cap. The owner did make a video about what happen. I'll link it for anyone that may want to watch it.

They are freaking art.
They are history that you get to shoot.
Sometimes going to the gun store is like going to a museum where they let you play with the items on display. I figure I can’t take it with me so I might as well enjoy some things while I’m here. As you said some smoke and drink.....my Neibor spent more Friday on a bottle of rare whiskey (Bourbon) than I did on the K98.
I have very few new guns and a bunch of old. It’s my hobby
Some people don’t get it. They don’t have too.

 

[Orangeslice13]

Hell my skeet gun I compete with is a 1932 Remington Model 11. And nobody makes fun of it either.

 

[Orangeslice13]

To be honest I also have a custom built 870 that’s the envy of everyone there but that doesn’t fit the narrative of loving old guns

Yup

It don't get pulled out very often, You have to load black powder 12 gauge shells and its at the age it don't like to be bothered anymore. It just likes to tell stories.
You was talking about your 1932 and I thought you would like seeing this one.

Love that. I’ll dig out my black powder DBl barrel grandpa in a little while

 

[Orangeslice13]

The m1889 Remington DBL barrel

 

[Orangeslice13]

Correction
That’s the 1894
It belonged to my great grandfather on my mother’s side. I shot it once when it was given to me.......37 years ago. I have 4 paper rounds left. Not gonna do it.

I want to point out I love that cover. I have one that looks close that my mamaw made for me before she passed. That gun is also priceless.

 

[Tin Man]

My Remington will never be shot again. My Hunter Arms Fulton will.

 

[Orangeslice13]

Ok old gun dudes.
A construction buddy from out of town needs a hydraulic dump trailer for a job he has coming up. He’s going to come get one of mine at the end June. He needs it for 3 months. For the rent he will be giving me a 1993 M1Garand.

We will see.

Tell him he needs to include 3 months of ammo too.

For anyone that plays on steam may I suggest World of Guns: Gun Disassembly. The game is free to play or you can unlock everything for 49.99$. Its a neat time waster that really goes into detail on some models.
