yeah, that looks remarkably different than the KAC sight. god works in mysterious ways, and i'm learning.
the lyman tang is a good sight for lever guns and sing shot rifles for short range hunting. offers enough adjustment to make any shot under ~250 yards and is very robust. The Vernier sight offers more precise adjustment but is a lot bigger and easier to knock of zero. unlike the lyman tang sight the vernier will allow you to take shots out to 1,000 yards or more. Billy Dixon (a scout for the US army) killed a indian with a sharps rifle at 1,538 yards at the second battle of adobe walls in 1874 using a vernier sight.
I've saved enough money by only shooting a 22lr Taurus in my backyard that I can afford for a Chinese slave to make a stencil for me
LMAO at Fed LE from a PREMIERE AGENCY
Dual wield the Lord's caliber. Also see if you can trade it for a 81BB or something those are fun.Kiwi Bros.... I DUN GOOFED
Got a PPK/s in .32 ACP when I didn't realize the .32 PPK is back in action and for sale.....
Derp.
About to get a ~$300-$400 loss after I sell the PPK/s and get the PPK
Lesson learned
2, maybe even 3 more SHOT Shows worth of this dumb "tactical" lever gun fad...
At least the tape I Bubba'd onto my P30S so it doesn't sand off my jelly roll can be easily removed. Yeesh.
So a lot of retailers will use the NRA Condition Standards when listing used guns, but instead of the "Modern Gun" standards which actually make sense for something made in the past 70 years they instead use the "Antique" standards which have more allowance for wear and tear.
thanks for the gas bushing tip I actually didn't know that and I assure you another 700 is going into this rifle for optics and light alone so I have no problem putting money into it
No problem. I did a lot of research on these guns before I bought mine. It's a current production Ranch Rifle, 585 series. It's fun, I like the tiny Garand action it has. Like an alternative reality where the Garand/M14 was adapted into a SCHV cartridge in the late 50's. Here's a link to the bushings https://www.ruger-mini-14-firearms.com/Gas-Reduction-Bushing-Kit.php. I used the .040 inch bushing and have good reliability, winter time needs higher pressure 5.56 to cycle well but in the summer the difference is night and day. Another thing to consider is installing a 1911 buffer on the rearmost end of the operating rod's recoil assembly. Keeps the rifle from slamming into itself as hard, even with the reduced gas pressure. I experimented with having another buffer on the foremost end but ended up with the rifle unlocking prematurely and invoking more reliability issues. Cogburn Arsenal makes some neat aftermarket parts, like stripper clip guides and bayonet lugs. A lot of people shit on the Mini, and the older ones were crap, but I like the history of knowing these neat little things were used in Rhodesia and Ireland, and it's kind of neat having a tiny Garand that shoots affordable effective ammunition. I just like em bros.
Thats always been a thing for metal glock mags. This isnt new. I know these mags are new but it was the same way with Shield mags.
Magpul Glock mags suck, Mecgar Glock mags suck, the South Korean Glock mags suck, ProMag Glock mags suck, etc. etc. etc.
