  1. Hey round is a shape
  2. National guard infantryman for 6+ years just reenlisted this past Saturday. Started a new job about a month ago at a fiber glass company making train panels for subway cars, flumes, and some custom work. Been trying to tell the owner to get into that bass boat business.........lol
  3. Seen this on facebook earlier
  4. Tickles
  5. Been there done that
  6. I wouldn't want to be shot with anything lol
  7. Wonder what this RIP round will do when it hits a bone like if you aim center mass on a human. I've seen hunting rounds designed to do what this round does with its fragmentation and they splash on bones. Berger HPs, Vmax and some others are known for hitting shoulders of coyotes an splashing making a mere flesh wound. I would think this round would do the same if you hit the sternum of a human.
  8. You guys sayin nosler do you mean the plastic tips???? Nosler is a brand I love tipped bullets personally its all i shoot. I read an article the other week that the Army/SF are working and testing a new tipped bullet instead of FMJ. Problem with that is Geneva convention laws
  9. Not even gonna get started its impossible not to go political when it comes to talking about whats going on with this state. I will say I seen a representative wants to put something on the ballet about splitting NYC and upstate into two diffrent states which would be awesome.
  10. I don't own a single semi auto firearm of any kind all mine are single shots or bolt guns. Even if I owned one of the said "evil" guns I would never register it it would have been lost in a boating accident. What's gonna really hurt us is now having to pay for a background check every time we want to buy ammo and being limited to only 3 boxs a month or something stupid. Last i heard its gonna be between $25-50 for the check single every time.
  11. Must have missed a post that was deleted lol. I to enjoy guns of all types I wish I could shoot more but being in NY greatly hinders that as ammo is next to impossible to find for the guns i have and like to shoot. Tons of .223/5.56 ammo and I found a place that has bricks of my 17 for 140 a brick of 500 I'm just shy the 140 bucks lol. I shoot a .243 99% the time and I'm running low on ammo and he last place I looked had all deer rounds other then nosler varmintgedon but at 40 a box of 20 and probably needing to rezero ill pass.
  12. As a veteran and a infantryman I can tell you that they do NOT fragment when incontact with soft tissue.
  13. I agree that an AR or any assault type rifle is not good for home defense infact it is probably the worst especially because 90% of the people out there use FMJ and surplus ammo because its cheap. FMJ will not stop some one with out a few hits even at center mass and after they poke a small hole in the assailant the round is going to go threw them then the wall and into your daughters room or out side into the neighbors house.
  14. No its scarier....a girl packing lol jk
  15. What I don't understand is all this worry about 3d printing when the ability has always been there to make guns by hand or anyone with a little machining experience can make a gun.
  16. Dodges are the best looking trucks...... The dually is cool I suppose it doesn't do much for me other then the fact its diesel.
  17. Fully auto guns need to be incredibly strong I don't for see a 3d printing machine producing one because well arnt they plastic. Fully auto guns are hard to get by the average citizen you can't just go buy one. ARs are not automatic heck the military version of the same guns the M4 isn't even auto. The M4 has burst and in my 6+ years in the army as an infantryman I think my rifle has gone on burst less then 5 times and most of them times were in a spendex to get rid of blanks and then another time to prove you cannot accurately manipulate the weapon on burst while at SDM school. Criminals will always have access to guns or explosives no matter how many laws you make. Like the saying locks only detur honest people if some one wants what you have bad enough they will get it same goes for getting a weapon.
  18. Hornady already makes a PD round with the same principle and less likely to fail as this looks like it may.
  19. I've had the similar conversation. There are plenty of people who use ARs for hunting in fact all my hunting partners for coyotes carry ARs into the field when we go calling. I'm the only one who carries a bolt gun. I only have my .243 as far as center fires are concerned. The comment about hunting rifles being like sniper rifles are correct. My coyote gun my .243 is all black and sports a 4-12x40 optic I can tell you this I shoot it enough and know it inside and out if I can see it I can kill it. I wouldn't hesitate to take a 500yd shot or farther. Regardless of what guns you fancy AR, long rifles, pistols, cowboy action, ect they are all lethal and all subject to be banned if the powers to be want.
  20. I must be boring to I've never been kicked out of anywhere other then my own home by my wife on several occasions for nonsense reasons.
  21. Oak orchard river about 45min west of Rochester will have your trout
