      Where to shoot full auto around Indy?

      Hi everyone, thanks for the responses! I've been out of the loop from the weekend, but I really appreciate all the help. @Yamadog35 thanks for the link! I missed it while scrolling through the subforum @DRob No kidding, right? I usually go on weekdays when it's very mild, but I had some...

      Where to shoot full auto around Indy?

      I remember reading about a year ago or so that Point Blank (Greenwood) doesn't allow full auto any more. I called as well as asked in store, and all I got was a bunch of nonsense about people shooting walls, floors, wrong lanes, small animals two counties over, etc. So, where in Indianapolis...

      WTB: Factory Colt 614/M16 transferable on form 4

      Hello INGO! I am looking for a factory Colt M16, preferably on a F4 in Indiana. Rollmarks are a secondary concern to condition, and I would be equally happy with a nice 614 or M16A1. That said, my budget is toward the Model 614 range rather than M16A2 SSA range. I am seeking a MG that left...

      Surplus 7.62x54 availability

      If it counts for anything, I went to price some out on Ammo Seek last week and only saw new production ammo listed for sale in 7.62x54mmR.

      147 gr. 300 Blackout load data

      I used some M-80 pull downs I bought cheap and I think it was around 17 grains H110. Cycled fine as I recall. I read a bunch of threads on it online to establish a rough range, cross referenced as noted above, and single loaded to take time and inspect chrono and fired brass. I don’t remember...

      Rolling pelican clone case $39.98

      Thumbs up for putting them through the paces. Offhand I remember failures with breaks on the thin parts of latches, pins walking out, and the plastic twisting of pressure was accidentally applied while open or loading. Slightly related, but IIRC, Pelican used to highlight their warranty stood...

      17 Year Old Trips, Kills Cousin

      Very, very sad :( It’s an absolute tragedy. I shutter when I think of all the poor clearing barrels that caught rounds from unloaded weapons- I can’t imagine the feeling for if it was a person any of those times.

      What is the purpose of a SBR?

      Well, technically, it’s an SBS for a shotgun and SBR for a rifle. Not sure how much cheaper they are; you save what, about $100 on brace versus stock for an AR-15, maybe less than that on a non-AR? Given the cost of most decent builds, that’s not very much savings that could easily be offset...

      Gettysburg Safe

      Nothing fancy, but as noted, it’s a nice container. No issues with mine. Not quite as sturdy as my Stack-On I bought at Dick’s a while back.

      Rolling pelican clone case $39.98

      Oh, to clarify, by Pelican spec I mean used under the same NSN to backfill damaged Pelican cases. They did something right to get the same NSN, but it was not the same quality product.

      Rolling pelican clone case $39.98

      Seems like a good deal, but my past experience is there is a reason that a Pelican costs what it does. Having handled both in the Army (pelican and pelican spec) the pelican spec cases “looked” very similar but had MUCH thinner plastic and less sturdy hinges. Hopefully these cases are better...

      Escape Room Indy, anyone do it?

      I’ve heard they’re a lot of fun from acquaintances but I personally have not gone.

      $7k for semi with 250,000 miles

      I for one am looking forward to seeing more about the deal of the year.

      9mm vs 40 S&W vs 45acp

      I hope you don’t talk IRL like you type. Paragraphs! BLUF! Heck even a TL;DR Edited for politeness.

      Along the same lines, if you share a link, delete everything after the question mark. I’m not a bleeding deer, I don’t need tracked.
