71 year old man shoots robbers
joelrod47 replied to ms33837's topic in General Discussion - Any topic is welcome here!!!
...........not a large-enough caliber pistol, and shooting too low !! Guy had fair form, though............ Good for him !! -
You're thinking of the alligator hunting trip. LOL........ That was the one when Tony ended up being the bait !! (Momentarily !! ) In the water / Out of the water : Elapsed time= 1 heartbeat !!

Drew, Let us know when he plans to show up at your place..... I can make a bundle selling the tickets !!

Slide Fire: Cool or douchey?

Next time I get through BR, I'll bring it with me.................We can probably shoot down Gardere somewhere, huh ??? (lol) -
Slide Fire: Cool or douchey?

Actually, with just a little practice, it's quite controllable...... I've shot it out to about 150 yards with good target control (minute of torso) !!!!! 7.62x39 is not a high recoil round (comparatively), and not that hard to control from the shoulder.....not a problem with "the sights going everywhere"......... I've shot some FA that aren't as easy to maintain target with, but the SlideFire/ARM combo isn't a problem...... Say it ain't so! Heh, heh, heh............... Tried one out yet, Will ??? -

Fun toy, AND serious tool........... Nothing to do with douchebaggery..................... Shot it first for fun, and to establish proficiency.......... Dedicated stock now on one of my AK's.......... Serious potential as a defensive weapon....... It'd be a real pain in the ass to have to take it on and off and switch it around unless you just dedicated it to one rifle...... Still fun to take it out from time to time and blow shit up with it !! -
Snarf, You do realize this is a GUN FORUM, right ???? (just checking....)

Road Rage Incident

From Storm####'s post above, for those who don't know, a FIB is a Fucking Illinois Bastard . Common term in Wisconsin for inconsiderate fuckheads who come up from Illinois ...... (Chicago metro area, mostly) -
It's a sweet pistol...... Model 30, original manufacture date in early 30's; Re-calibered (9mm re-barrel) / Re-worked in 80's by restoration company in North Carolina.... Grips are not original to the 7.63 Model 30, but reflect the switch to 9mm (I'll happily live with that !) Small area of pitting on the bolt, but 90-95% overall ! Absolutely beautiful piece. Been looking for this one for years !!

Just bought a C96 Broomstick Mauser (9mm) from Bobadebt !! Great interaction from start to finish of transaction !! Went the extra mile to expedite the deal, with excellent communication throughout !! I'll highly recommend dealing with him on anything he has that catches your interest !! You can't go wrong !! Nicest broomhandle I've ever seen on the market, and, to my way of thinking, a great deal on it !!

New shotgun from Turkey

Just gotta love this place........heh, heh, heh................ -
Not all AR-15 golfball launchers suck !! TROMIX sells an AR-15 golfball launcher that is engineered unlike any other one available !! I have a TROMIX launcher that will blow a ball out there 2000 feet !! (Just under 700 yards, measured with a laser distance meter..... I hang out with surveyors in my job ! ) The threaded entry into the back of the ball cylinder is offset from center to produce one helluva backspin, which lofts the ball tremendously !! Distance achieved is unbelievable !! Check out the TROMIX website for pics and additional information on these !! (click on t

New SSAK-47 Stock (SlideFire)
joelrod47 replied to joelrod47's topic in General Discussion - Any topic is welcome here!!!
WOW! That is one of the coolest, if not thee coolest, Saiga rifle's I have seen on the forum! Thanks, Hog !! Glad someone likes it as much as I do !! It's a Saiga/Legion/Arsenal/Tromix SGL.......... It's the only TROMIX 10th Anniversary gun that Tony made, engraved and dated, both with the 10 year timespan and the date he made it !! Only two-tone I know of that Tony's done !! SRT trigger on this one, too !! -
New SSAK-47 Stock (SlideFire)
joelrod47 replied to joelrod47's topic in General Discussion - Any topic is welcome here!!!
Quality/practicality standard.......Bought the stock specifically to put it on the Maadi. It's the oldest AK I own, and the one I tend to shoot the least. Therefore, I can have it on the rifle as a dedicated stock, and not have to concern myself with swapping it around. Past that, the Maadi, as AK variants go, is for various reasons what I'd prefer over a Romy, Bulgarian, Chinese, or any of the rest........Save Saiga, being the top choice for me (as long as it says TROMIX on it !!) Getting to play with FA toys doesn't exclude me from just buying this stock for the hell of it........... -
New SSAK-47 Stock (SlideFire)
joelrod47 replied to joelrod47's topic in General Discussion - Any topic is welcome here!!!
Surprised that I bought the stock, or that I didn't put it on one of my S-12's ???? Actually, I have no desire whatsoever to put this stock on an S-12.............. (both of mine have folders, anyway, and won't go on.....) At my age, I get all the ROF I can stand just pulling the trigger, and I can pull the trigger pretty fast............... (TROMIX SRT on both of 'em !!) I could put it on this TROMIX 10th Anniversary rifle, but why would I want the ugly bastard on such a beautiful gun ??!!
