What gun stuff did you buy today?

[Moonpie]

I saw your picture recently, did you always have it, or did you buy it recently due to all the talk?

Actually I have three .45-70's.
Sharps 1874, Trapdoor Carbine, Winchester 1886.
I've had them all for a while.
I'd like to find a receiver sight for the 1886 but that is proving to be made of unobtainium.

I purchased two Handguards and two Muzzle Brakes for a 6x45 and a Sharps 25-45 AR 15.

Have you posted about this before? I have one too, what bullets are you using?

 

[TxStetson]

Purchased 40rds of .45-70 ammo.

Then went to the range and promptly shot every round of it. LoL

Gotta have empty brass to reload.

Found a cheap Chinese faux-Atlas-bipod cheap in a bargain bin.

Worked well yesterday on a couple rifles.
Makes me want a real Atlas for 5-600% more!

Once you get a real one, it's hard to settle for less.

You are right!
Ordered it today!

I pulled something out of the storage room that I bought a while back and had never appreciated. Did not buy it today but I came to appreciate it today!

It's crazy-well-built. Check the links.

......................
It's a seriously precision-built and highly versatile rest made largely for law enforcement snipers as is made apparent on their web site.

To my end:
Today I went out with my .338 Lapua and a friend brought his Ruger #1 in .458 Lott.

Wow.
They are so much more manageable when the recoil is absorbed standing straight up.

The .458 Lott was miserable from my traditional bench but I shot 12 of the 20 rounds from this rest.
We shot about 50 Lapua rounds and were not feeling the pain at all.

I found this thing at a gun show a while back as a $275 uninformed impulse-buy and, once home, found I'd paid all of 20% of retail. Better lucky than good.


Shooting big calibers is never cheap.
This thing makes it more fun and it's steady enough to get 1-2 MOA. Not bench-accurate but pleasant-accurate.

BM 59 parts kit.

I purchased a Magnetospeed for $165.00 that was never used with the phone adapter included. The person bought a new Lab Radar.

 

[lonestardiver]

Found a glock .45acp mag in the used bargain bin at the LGS. Snagged it for my AR-45.

That's a heck of a deal. I really like mine.

[gshayd]

Just got the 6x45 put together and I am waiting on the muzzle brake so I have not given much thought to ammo yet

 

[TheMailMan]

Purchased yesterday.

Four 12 round Sig P365 mags and a holster for a Sig P365.

 

[HKShooter65]

Today's procurement:

A couple of AR forearm braces. A basic $30 blade and a nice $240 adjustable one.

In a decade they may be:

a. Cool to have, but available on Amazon.
b. Felony contraband.
c. Serial #'ed with a $200 tax stamp.
d. Utilitarian, as they are today.
e. Lost in a tragic, yet all-too-common, boating accident.

Picked up a lower build kit with buffer tube & stock to build one of my recently purchased lowers. I already have a 7.62x39 upper to put on it. Got the Omega package from black rifle depot for $69.
