Alaskans: Check in (Page 6 of 9)
| Hello, I am new to the site. I have lived in Alaska for about 6 years. 4 in Dutch Harbor and now 2-1/2 in Wasilla. I am in the process of building my first AR-15. I just received my Rock River lower and now I am getting with my friend in South Carolina to help me get it started. Look forward to shooting it in the future! |
| Hello folks , Im new to the site. Everyone calls me Junior , I live in the Kenai/Soldotna area , spend most of the winters like now visiting my folks in Texas and cant wait to get back home in a couple months. Im a guide on the Kenai but cant always fit some time in a hook up and do so some shooting out at Snowshoe. |

Arms are the only true badge of liberty. The possession of arms is the distinction of a free man from a slave.

Hello
I'm in Valdez and name is Denis. I like the AR-15 because it's a mechanical wonder. I've had an AR since 1985 and like to shoot it. In the USMC I had an M-14 and that was also a very good gun, and is still doing the odd job in Iraq and Afghanistan. I've got a wife and two kids, and all enjoy shooting. The kids like .22 rimfire rifles and pistols. |

Well, I ain't a true Alaskan, but I'll be here 42 outta 52 weeks a year working at Ft. Greely.
I'll be slowly bringing some of my guns here and hope to meet some of you fellas and gals while I'm here. |
Fuck Obama and everyone who supports him!

Back up on grid power now, but we are solar powered for much of the day. Utility power is 22 cents per kilowatt hour, so the Solar panels are starting to look like a good investment. Please post your set up. It is of interest to many of Us here. |

I too can't wait for your shop to open. In fact, was that you this afternoon (Friday 13th) playing with your toys? This addiciton is going to get worse, I can tell already. |

I would be up lunch, but I am only able to make it to Anchorage once a month and that is on a Wednesday. In fact, this coming Wednesday, but must be around 11:30 or so. I have to be at the airport no later than 1 PM, so somwhere clsoe to the airport would be better, like Gwinnies or the like. I work a 2 week on/2 week off schedule in the Winter and a 3-n-3 in the Summer. Would be nice to me some of you folks.
Thanx, Mike |

| Hello, Chris O here from Anchorage. I'm 40 something (thats what I started saying when it was more than halfway between 40 and 50 anyway!) I've been wanting a cool predator type rifle for quite some time and when eveyone decided Sarah didnt have enough "experience" and we were going to have "change" weather or not we wanted it... I thought now was as good a time as ever. Anyway, my search for the perfect rifle for me led me here and after purchasing several various rifles, ( I'm mostly stuck between the gas piston thing and the impingement system. I have a couple fine examples of both and have been experimenting down at the RC range to help make up my mind) and lowers, and uppers, I'm getting pretty close now! So, I'm lingering around, trying to decide what to settle on and sure enjoying the information I've been able to glean from elsewhere on this site. Its great to see so many Alaskans here! |

Maybe a visit and some shooting at your range could be arranged this summer!

Preston from Healy here. Workin' at the coal mine. Mainly on the FALfiles as AlaskanMBR. Member of AMGA, will be at the shoot this memorial day weekend - Give me a shout if you are so we can be sure to say hi.
I do a lot of reloading and WECSOG'n. My favorite rifles are the ones that are black. :D We have some sweet places to shoot here in Healy, and you get used to shooting in some crazy ass wind. If you're ever going to be in Healy for a few days give an IM and we can set up a course of fire and have some fun. Cheers! |

Dylan in Anchorage (unfortunately). This is what I do: www.7.62precision.com
Preston, I'm sorry that your favorite rifles are all black. I can help with that, you know . . . |

Thanks, Check this out: .32 Special Leverevolution
This is available now and has even slightly better ballistics than their .30-30 ammo. I have a 1940's Winchester 94 in .32 Win Special. |

Hey Dylan! Good to hear from you man!
If my rifles were to be anything other than black you'd be the one to camo 'em for me. Here's what I did to that saiga I got from you: http://i238.photobucket.com/albums/ff244/akmbr/CIMG0084.jpg For those who haven't seen his work, you've got to check out his website, you'll be impressed. |

hey preston, jake here.... from the 'files...
anyway, i've been into black guns for quite awhile now (FALs and ARs), and just sent the $$$ off for an M16 RR. i'm not as excited as i should be just because 4-6 months (transfer times for both the form 3 then the form 4) seems like forever away. i live in sitka. |
