AIM has copper-coated, hi velocity 40gr 22lr made by Águila for anywhere between $2.79 to $2.59 per box of 50. Even with shipping adding about 10%, it's a good deal. Aguila makes quality ammo...
Does anyone know what happened to Brock's Guns in Bishop, GA? They always had a lot of C&R-eligible guns - a bit price some, but a few good deals could be found. Their website went kaput a couple of weeks back with no explanation.
I wonder where their stock went if they closed down as there...
Finally got my HQL, and I broke it in at 2A Sales. Mark and the guys ordered me a Glock 41. Here is the goodness:
Picked it up Thursday, and took it to the range today. After a couple of quick elevation/windage adjustments on the rear sight, I was hitting 1" groups at 8 yards with crappy...
Cold and windy today, so instead of going outside and being productive I decided to give my C&R rifles and carbines a quick inspection and light lubing. I also got 2 slings from CMP for the 2 garands that were missing them so I did a bit of slingin'. Afterwards, they all wanted to pose for a...
After many years of unsuccessfully chasing after this gun type, I finally snagged one. I got Dennis Kroh's email notice while I was using my phone right after a meeting and quickly pretended like I was still listening to the client speak as I quickly shot Dennis an email saying that I wanted...
It came today. It looks fantastic - completely unissued condition - down to plastic protective covers on the iron sights.
My crappy phone pic does not do it justice. It is liberally covered in cosmo, so I'll spend part of the weekend cleaning it up. It's my first SKS so I want to learn...
I have been looking for a 9mm Luger for a long, long time. The prices I had seen were always super high and was resigned to keep looking for the foreseeable future.
I happened to be browsing an online dealer whom I just recently found out about, Checkpoint Charlie, and I ran into an S/42...
Got in trouble again by walking into 2A Sales. I'd been looking for a lever action rifle in .357 Mag, and they are like hen's teeth to find. So I stop by to see Mark at the shop a couple of weeks ago, tell him of my troubles and he says "Oh, I have 2 of them here... Winchesters..." They were...
I jumped on the second run at the IHC Garands when I got the email from CMP last week. I picked the Field Grade with the LMR barrel, instead of the Service Grade with a random barrel. I figured I could deal with a less than perfect receiver and guts and get a nice barrel.
Well, CMP wasn't...
Just a heads up that AIM has K31's at reasonable prices, with both beech and walnut stocks. They had $30 bayonets but they already sold out. I picked up a walnut stock rifle with a bayo, as I have a beech stock one that I have setup with a scope, so this way I can use the new one for iron...
Just picked up an Ortgies 7.65mm pistol. I got it from Ocala Armory in FL. I had seen it advertised a while ago, and for one reason or another never really followed up. I somehow ran into their website again, and saw it there a week ago. Luckily, they were open on Sunday, so after a quick...
About 2 years ago I saw that J&G in AZ was selling Saigas of all flavors for about $300 a pop. I decided to spring for a 7.62X39, with the eye on doing the conversion to an AK format. After the transfer from my local FFL (8 days, ah, memories), I started learning in earnest about what it...
I wanted to relay a recent good experience I had ordering from Top Gun Supply from Chesterland, OH.

I had been looking for some HK USP 9mm 18 round mags (the ones you can use if you have the "jet funnel" kit installed) and had no luck locally or with the...
I found this at a random gun shop in PA while browsing for other stuff online. I called the shop and they had 2 of them, I went with the one he described as having less original blue left and the gun slide "not locking". He knocked the price down to where I thought it would be a good project...

Decent price and it's AIM, so you know it's good customer savings and prompt shipping.
I really don't get to shoot my HK91 too often anymore, what with some kind of ammo shortage I've heard of, so I decided to go plastic. I just bought the 1,000 round pack of this with the rollerless carrier from Dan's Sporting Goods:
I had read good reports from people who've shot this...
Just had this delivered by the BBTOH today: It's a Springfield 1903, from 1918, with a 1944 replacement barrel. The gun is in amazing shape, with dings in the stock but otherwise the metal looks great. The bore is shiny and bright, with no fouling visible at all. Here are the pics...
Just as an FYI, Trop's Gun Shop in Elizabethtown, PA is getting regular shipments of all types of ammo. They have instituted some limits, like 1 brick of 22lr p or 2 boxes of handgun ammo per person per visit, which I think is helping them keep stuff in stock for more than an hour each time...
I'm having a C&R purchase withdrawal, and need to fix that soon. I've been eyeing a Swede Mauser in 6.5X55. I have read that they are accurate rifles, but wanted to know people's experience with them, and if they had secret sources of reasonably priced surplus ammo. I'm thinking about going...
I signed up for the alert to get notice when these came back in stock, and they're flying off the shelves:
