But even if you don't, we're all just playing musical ammo I only shoot a mag or two through each of my pistols, but I always leave with a few boxes gone; that's the way it should be

I get what your saying but if paul is willing to be nice enough to bring a firearm at my request I think the least I can do is bring some ammo for it. Last time I not only let others shoot my guns but shot others guns when I had no ammo for them. But if you ask me to bring something for you to try I think you could buy a box or two.
I'm not trying to start a argument with you surplus, I just was raised to return borrowed things in as good if not better condition as when it was borrowed. When someone does something nice for you return the favor. No one likes feeling like they have been used or taken advantage of. I know that others asked to be able to shoot a certain gun but also expected the ammo to be available for them. I didn't want paul to feel this way although he most likely would let me shoot his gun with his ammo and never ask for anything in return. This is not how I was raised or how I want to be. I like this forum so now that you know the mods so well please don't get me banned. JK. I will even let you try my guns again as long as I am not banned |

I've had people not want to use the ammo I bring even though it's factory ammo that's another reason I brought it up.

You think 9mm rimfire is rare enough? I don't even have any rounds for it :/

I'm gonna bring it to the next shoot, it's a cool gun my grandma brought over from England. It's a Webly "Garden Gun", very cool piece of family history.

Not that I can think of.
You thinking of starting a shoot out there?

There are a couple ranges, San Joaquin Rifle and Pistol Range in Linden, and Sac Valley Shooting Center in Ione, but they're not really what we want for the C&R shoot/swap meet/bull session/BBQ. The range in Linden is decent, and SVSC is the best range that I've ever been to, but the Oroville range sounds perfect for this. I will be driving up from Galt, it takes me about 1:45 to get to my folks place up above Oroville, you should be able to get to Oroville in 2:15 or so from Stockton.

Dude, I come from Monterey and I dont even have my own car.
I'll have a case of 7.62x54r and 5.45x39. Also some 5.56, 7.62x51, .45ACP, and probably some others. Oh, some 12g. Hey meaty-btz(or anyone), do you have an extra 10 round magazine for a 74? Mine came with 30 round rebuild kits, I dont have any blocks either, and I'd like to be able to take my new rifle out legally. Wanna sell me one if you got it?

Speaking of ammo...let me show you what Dutch3 did.
Glue gun with no powder. He can do anything with that reloading machine. Oh, hard to get primers and powder. Understandably not real accurate, probably don't groove in the barrel. I was wondering if one of you fine gentlemen would stand out in the shooting area and let me snap you in the butt, let us know if it hurts. Any takers? |

You are willing to sell it to me, or let me use it while we are there? Either way would be appreciated.
Paulie, meaty, Lone_G(I assume you have a rifle, not just magazines), and myself, we should all bring our 74s and have a commie party. That'd be a blast, for sure. Go irons against some AR15s, maybe.

Good for practice on the homestead or eliminating small vermin. My co-worker's mom likes them, they make her .38 sound like a cap gun with zero recoil. She shoots them in her garage, into a cardboard box stuffed with towels so she can recover the bullets and reuse them.

I have heard of people shooting them with very light powder loads, though.

Primer only then lightly crimp in the pellet, gives about 1,000fps
Not the most accurate but works. I'll see if I have time to do a few tomorrow, if I can find some 22 cal. pellets, I know I have some .177 but that won't work.

I see...a .22 lead pellet.
For some reason, I was thinking along the lines of a load of "snakeshot" pellets.

Irons are dead on. PS Commie barrels do shoot better. 50 yards with irons, all I could see was a small black round thing about the size of my front post. First two were right, I adjusted the sight and the rest were fairly fast. Got a lucky flier bulls but the rest grouped nicely. Good barrel is good. You'd probably get the same out of a hammer forged american barrel if you can find one. The idea is heavier barrel makes a difference.

Commie shoot you say? My PSL is commie, and I can actually see the target with it.
I had some of those Speer .38 plastic indoor bullets that fired with a primer, and very lethal on the mocking birds in my fruit trees, but the possum wasn't getting the hint. So I figured a magnum primer and a couple of grains of black powder would step up the persuasion. I also figured that 6 layers of packing cardboard should be a sufficient enough backstop and penetration test out in the garage. I figured wrong. Went through all the cardboard, and through the plywood garage door, and lodged in the grill of my pickup! BTW...worked great on the possum. |

I am sure someone has an american counterpart to the PSL, or equivalent. Can I try a few rounds(mags?) on that, btw? I have a bunch of 7.62x54r. That is what it shoots, correct? This sounds like a lot of fun.

surplus-addict, are you paying attention here? You can only shoot light ball in it Travis, even though I have a recoil buffer in it, the heavy ball really pounds it. I have plenty of light ball if you don't. Between me, Paulie, w55, and Justin, we could have four SVT-40's for a commie gun shoot too! |

(No, serious: if anybody wants zucchini's, just ask and I will bring you some, our garden is waaaaaay over producing). Trust me, if I had 54r I'd bring it, but I sold my last bit to Alex.

I have no idea what my ammo is, besides corrosive surplus. I will try and figure it out.
Trading vegetables for ammo, lol. That is pretty cool. Damn funny I thought, at 6AM.

We need to put those veggies to good use as targets. If glue rounds work what about a carrot bullet? or corn filled 12 ga. Maybe green peace will like us better. cal guns seeds land while enjoying their sport ensuring veggies for the next generation.

That is funny, although we should all hope it never really comes to that.

Honestly, if someone had a lot of veggies, and I had a lot of ammo, I would trade for some. Although, I think I see a problem with food as currency.
