Ammo prices are going down.
22LR for $2.99 a box
9mm Magtech brass for $14 a box.

This is sweet - a Marlin 30-30 lever action.

At 5 cents a round, my .22 inventory is worth $1500. My concealed carry weapon is a H&K P7 (actually a PSP) German police issue, one of the last ones made under a replacement contract in 1995. That .22 ammo will last me the rest of my life going through my 1932 Winchester Model 52, either with the original iron match sights or my Lyman Super Target Spot. I've had a permit to carry since 1990 and never had to use it. Been reloading since the 1970s.

or a 338 lapua

marlin do a 338?  .. dunno? ... its the 'popular' sniper round... but a hell of a recoil!! .. even with a big custom stocked bolt action  its still a heavy hit! ... imagine that much force channeling back through a relatively lightweight marlin unit!!! ... goodbye clavicle integrity!

I started with an airsoft gun 6 months ago and am slowly working my way up in caliber. Be patient. Soon there will be an ICBM in my yard to really take care of raccoons once and for all.

[Janx101]

before the ICBM ... build yourself some serious steel plate fencing .. like... im thinking 15-20mm or so... errr... 3/4"-1" kinda ... and pickup one of these...

on dem raccys you'll have no carcass to remove... just fertiliser mist dropping gently to ground..

My permit came in yeaterday so in the next few days I will take possession of a Howa 1500 in 22-250 with a ballooned barrel. When it's done it'll have a match grade stainless 308 barrel and a blueprinted action. I can see many a pig, roo, and odd feral cat falling to this rifle plus a few well placed shots at a reasonable distance.

Watching Anthony Bordane on CNN - his "Parts Unknown" show and all about guns and shooting and the old west.

Now that you have papers, too bad you can't come here and take toys home. It is interesting living here in Washington. One of the states that allows face-to-face private sales with zero paperwork. We can't sell across state lines so in WA sellers want to see your WA drivers license. It is fun to meet a seller and talk gun stories for a while when doing transactions.

Here are a couple toys I never knew about.
Seems the Bersa Thunder in .380 is a very popular and highly rated personal defense gun. Made in Argentina. Under $300. A PPK knock-off. It is loaded with interesting safety features like a trigger disable when the magazine is removed; decocker that blocks the firing pin and other things.

Then there is the off Ruger: a lever action 96/22. It uses the same magazines as the 10/22. Never knew there was a Ruger lever action.
