Wat’s Carbon Water-N-Stuff Thread - Concepts In Iron And Wood!!!

I'd like to see a break down of domestic ammo sales.

 

[Wat_Tyler]

That would be some interesting numbers.


Maybe I'll see if I can find some stuff tomorrow.

 

[Rebel5soul]

Good luck. I have a rough idea of what's coming out of Lake City and that's about it.

Winchester model 670A


Aught six. Already drilled-n-tapped. Decent barrel. Looks to be priced aggressively.


Maybe . . . .

Better be very aggressive on the price.

As a foot note, right now it's a buyer's market for firearms so some careful shopping should yield some good finds.

 

[Wat_Tyler]

Ordered.


This one was a, "what's your clearance, Clarence?" markdown.


In one of 'Murrika's most prolific calibers.


Pre-drilled receiver and bent bolt, so what's not to love?

 

[Rebel5soul]

On to scope shopping now. *chuckle*

 

[Wat_Tyler]

Not yet. I have some cleaning and stock fiddling to do first.

473.2 million. Hmmm…I wonder if those single barrel 12 gages got included that I inherited…or those .38’s or those….

I reckon that most of Them Datums post-date the GFA68. My guess is, the longer the firearm has been in your family tree and the older it is, the less likely that there's much record of it past manufacturer's build data and serial number records.


I also wonder what allowances are made for weapons which were lost or destroyed.

If it helps, please know that I too am trying to float more and fight less. And when that fails, I sometimes pound my now arthritic fists on the table.
