Quote HistoryQuoted: I’ve got an SBR’d suppressed Scorpion that should be in K form by the 15th. And if Popsmrf gets some zeniths in I wouldn’t mind going home with one. Are you guys ok feeding your 9mm sub guns the Rem UMC mil spec 115gr. FMJ ammo from Academy....it's about .18cents a rd. https://www.academy.com/shop/pdp/remington-umc-mil-spec-9mm-115-grain-fmj-ammunition |

I have run everything from Blazer Brass and WWB to Tula Steel and CCI aluminum.
I haven't had a problem yet except a batch of low pressure stuff I got from Mustang Munitions long ago. The MP5 didn't like it. |

Good deal, and I'll make sure I buy quality, freshly made ammo to feed your awesomeness.
This is truly a treat for myself, as I haven't shot much NFA stuff. They cancelled the event tomorrow at TMP due to weather...is it too late to change my vote to tomorrow, I can't wait a whole week

Quote HistoryQuoted:
I. It's pretty much just out of the gunsmith's hands. I haven't had any time to zero it. If one of you guys could help me do that, I'd be -greatly- appreciative - your lunch is on me and you'll have my never-ending gratitude. If HTF has good mags for sale, I'm going to pick up a few for my new AR. I bought a really nice soft-sided case for it at Marks Outdoors the other day. Is there still space for someone else to join? Have a good bit of 9mm and 5.56/.223 ammo I can bring. I was going to go shooting this weekend, but I've been really sick so I put it off. I always forget to check hometown. Don't know how I missed this! Let me know if there is still space for someone else. I could bring a couple of ARs, my PPQ 5" and my P30sk. Also have a wheelgun I inherited from my grandfather that I've yet to shoot, and have been wanting to try it out for awhile. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: My scorpion eats pretty much anything. For backyard shooting I’ve been buying zero brand 147gr from marks. Not the best stuff in the world but it’s fun and quiet. For a range where you have to wear ear pro anyway anything will do. Subs won’t matter.  Great to hear your joining us RainierV….the more the merrier as far as I'm concerned. At first I was worried we wouldn't have enough folks to make an event, so it's great hearing additional folks are coming. eta: I'd really enjoy trying out your P30SK, as I haven't shot one ever. I'll bring my P2000SK in .357sig if you, or others want to try it out. |

I just talked with Davenports. They don’t have holiday reservations but we should be able to be seated when we show. Davenports is usually jammed for dinner, not lunch, so keep your fingers crossed for a quick seating.
See you guys soon! |

I think I have some. They're for a dog fence and not lithium, but they should work. Only issue is there's a possibility I won't make it. As I mentioned earlier I've been sick - - I started a new antibiotic this past week. All was fine until I had a weird reaction to it last night. I'll spare the details, but it involved Dollar General and some bushes, and a whole lot of cussing. Anyway, I'm fine this AM, but going to see how things go in the next hour or so.
