    Show me your polished gold firearms

    I replaced the gaudy grips that came with it with a gaudier paid of imitation black pearl, and found a nickel/silver rear sight for it. Grabbed on Gunbroker but wasn't impressed with the level of plating. Plus the seller reassembled it incorrectly. It's one of the sellers that have sold these...

  3. Glock frames in Gunbroker

    Used to do this in a way. Would buy the Glock parts kits on Gunbroker, flip them on eBay. Mostly buyers in New York, California, a certain city in Illinois, and Hawaii. But then the kits started getting really out there in price and more people started doing it as the 80% kits became more...

  4. woops, i almost sold a fake optic

    I haven't seen one YET but it wouldn't be hard to do. Lens spanner wrench, other basic tools, the hardest part (for most) would be the nitrogen purge just due to getting the equipment. People have done DIY scope purges so it's possible. I wouldn't see it happening on a mass scale but it would be...

  5. woops, i almost sold a fake optic

    Yes, especially with phones. Not even discussing iPhones, Android phones are very simple to counterfeit. The software is out there for anyone to use, so all anyone needs to do is copy the case design and find an off-the-shelf chipset that's readily available on the market that matches or near...

  6. woops, i almost sold a fake optic

    Best way to tell the fakes is to look at the font. For all the counterfeiting the Chinese do, they can't get English font formatting down correctly. Screws/bolts will also be another dead giveaway. What you really have to worry about are the people that will disassemble the Chineseium optic...

  7. West Point shooting range reopens

    My last experience up there was not that great, but it was a few years ago. I doubt the same RSO is still there. But I have my own land now anyway, but still. It was a good place to go certain days of the week to shoot. I know the 25 yard pistol range had been talked about for many years.

  8. Movie/Show gun collection

    I'd really like to have one of the Mauser's used during The Last Samurai. AIM was selling them many years ago. I'd like to have the leather pistol case he has during the movie.

  9. Went to Eastman's gun show today - Cobb civic center

    The Columbus one has become worse each time I've went. They're trying to hide that vendors aren't showing up by spreading the tables out more, but it was the worst selection I've seen period. Granted I did get a great deal on a NIB Beretta APX from a dealer, but other than that and a few KAG...

    11+ Round Mags on Ebay Q

    It's an eBay policy since eBay is out of California. They go by CA law. Mailing mags to certain states would open you up to state charges in those states, but USPS is federal so I couldn't see them caring. People get away with it because if you know how to get around eBay's automated filter, the...

    When to let go of crazy things

    Saturday Night Specials. I've really tried to stop buying them but something about a sub-$100 gun in a store just makes me want to take it home. I've got an ammo can full of Rohms, Jennings, Lorcins, and every other pot metal masterpiece known to man. Can't stop. Also dress shirts and ties. It...

  12. Gunbroker has banned the listing of bump fire stocks

    If bump fire stocks are banned, and there's no Grandfathering in, if someone wants full auto, they might as well make an actual full auto. There are always unintended consequences. Of course, if you're hell bent on taking over a hotel room and shooting at fish in a barrel, that federally...

  13. Conceal carry AJC peachtree road race

    Certain water bottles would fit a pocket handgun. Nobody says you have to drink out of it.

    Mag ID?

    Nickel-plated magazine for FIE Titan II in .32/.380 It's worth ~$40-50 being nickel-plated http://www.ebay.com/itm/Nickel-FIE-Titan-II-Excam-GT-Targa-32-Caliber-32-7-65-8-Rd-Pistol-Magazine-Clip-/142412214451?hash=item21286df0b3:g:h94AAOSwXYtY4C5H

    I.D. These flintlocks

    Possibly Japanese replicas. The little bit of the engraving I can see from that picture looks like some Japanese ones I've seen in the past, plus the front of the guns look similar too with the cap and cleaning rod in that particular position.

    What is this "Thompson" thing

    Spitfire was. Not sure about the Eagle, then there was the Apache and the early Volunteer open bolt.

    What is this "Thompson" thing

    Newer ones, yes. Older lowers are metal. Metal ones are more desirable, and that's what OP has.

    What is this "Thompson" thing

    Also, the later/typical Volunteer Arms guns don't have the roll pins in the lower like his does. Lower looks like an older Spitfire now that i look at it more. If I had to guess without seeing more pictures, it's a very early square receiver copy of the Spitfire/Eagle/Apache carbines. Also...

    What is this "Thompson" thing

    Spitfire/Eagle has a tubular receiver. His rifle however does have an older Spitfire/Eagle type vertical foregrip, so it's certainly an older model or someone has installed it. I've not seen one with the plate/two screens. Volunteer did make some early (and grandfathered) open bolt semi's but...

  20. Tula 9mm was $7.76 per box yesterday @ Walmart

    Makes sense. I've never worked at Wal-Mart but generally you'll have reset teams come in and change out tags and such. Reset teams have a habit of working early mornings or late at night, and guess what's locked at Wal-Mart during that time of day and nobody usually has a key for it? The...
