Got in my sheaths for the Garand bayonets I ended up with, and the trigger kit for my new set of twins. I bought the first one to loan to a family member, then was impressed with it. Went alookin' and found it's sister on a gun auction. Relative decided they needed a smaller pistol, so I end up with two.

Laser installed on the one I won off auction, and Trijicon night sights off the first one I bought. G19 size with 17 round capacity, and none of that S&W disconnector crap....gotta love it

Cast 528 173gr 30 caliber bullets today. Interpreted a Swiss K31 tag for a guy as from 1st platoon, light mobile anti-air craft battery number 2. Tag wasn’t making complete sense to me until I realized the abbreviations were in French.

For the record:
I sold my only rifle for $48.50, gave away all my ammo, kept my 2-1/2" pocket knife for peeling apples, divested myself of anything potentially illegal in case Biden wins. Even told the dog she's up for sale because she might bite somebody. Just can't take the chance she would.
A sad day for me. But, I feel like I did the right thing. I'm waiting to see if hurricane shutters will be illegal and will sell them if they are. If anybody needs a 12" pointed round file/rasp I'll probably need to get rid of that too.
Just trying to get ahead of the new regime if it happens. Oh, and all my kitchen knives too, gone! Im keeping the paint can opener because it doubles as a bottle opener! And if anybody comes for it, there will be spilled paint!
I had a broken mason jar with a sharp edge on it, so it went in the recycle this morning. Not keeping any sharp pencils either.
I could go on, and I may be overthinking this stuff, but just trying to be compliant and legal.

File/Rasp - GONE! SOLD!
Thanks GCGF!

I picked up a new .243 youth to play with. Cleaned the barrel today and found a rough patch about 2" from the chamber. Checked it with the borescope and sure enough there was a funny spot. Got out the lapping compound and cleaned that up...checked again with the borescope and just a small pit where it used to be...probably no deeper than the chatter marks now. Then went to mount the new EGW rail I picked up to it....what do ya know it won't level. Looked all over for some release agent...nada...got the Johnson's Wax out and gave it a couple of coats....then it hit me...since nobody seems to take the trash out...I went to look to see if it was thrown away with the bedding compound I used to stiffen that Hogue forend...yep...there it is....now I am sitting around watching paint dry it would seem. Maybe I will get the rail bedded ing the morning...I sure want to shoot the ladders I made up for it tomorrow....guess it will wait.

 

[Duckyou]

Got a load of ammo cans - 6 40mm

Oh, yeah box up those pointy bullets I know you hid and ill get em in jan.

 

[Daezee]

Cast 662 30 cal bullets. Just 486 more of that bullet to cast and then onto the next bullet.

With all the shortages of ammo and reloading components, I wondered about gas checks to go on cast bullets. Sure enough, the common sizes, such as 30 caliber, seem to be sold out everywhere. I checked multiple sites.

I personally am fine on gas checks for a year. It just surprised me that even gas checks are in short supply.

 

[Snake-Eyes]

Patmarlins Checkmaker?

Edit to clarify: maybe it's worth investing in one.

YESSIR!
Already sent to the old folks home where they will disassemble them and sell the brass to fund Bingo night.

 

[FLT]

Thanks for posting that. I had no idea you could make your own gas checks !

 

[SAWMAN]

Loaded up some (15rds) 500S&W Mag for my rifle using 16.0grs of Trail Boss and a Hornady 300gr XTP.
Out of my 20" bbl these should be going about 875-925fps. ---- SAWMAN
