Just got my ruger 1022 compact. Put about 300 rounds through it. Grouping was really nice even at 30 yards or so. I had no optics except for the stock ones.
Ate CCI/Federal HPs with basically no issues. Kept getting misfeeds/dudgs on the Remington thunderbolts though.


$245 before taxes.

Spent all night putting my Nomad stock on it, god it sucks learning to put things together first hands. Example: Trigger housing, etc. Took me longer than expected :S

Looks pretty sweet with the ST36K Scope/Red Dot. I'll post picks tomorrow.


Anyone know how to tighten a G36 style scope/rail though? Kinda lost on that

I almost bought a Canadian Inglis Mk-I with a slot in the butt of the pistol and a shoulder stock, but the Inglis was in really rough shape, the guy wanted too much for it and I'm not sure if the stock was original or not. He was saying it was, but I remember there being a warning in a book I read awhile back saying that people were passing re-pro Mk-I stocks (with some of the markings that this one had) off as original.

At any rate since according to ATF regs it has to be an original stock or else it's violating the NFA (and because I'm not down with paying that much for a felony conviction :) ) I passed and bought this instead.

It's an German Occupation FN GP-35 (WaA140) with a tangent sight and ring hammer.

Half done on my BHP collection, several more GP-35's/BHP's to go and I'm done.

Really wanted that Inglis Mk-I, but I'll find one in better condition.

scout scope and mount for Nagant, and a couple of mag adapters, factory mags, and a holster for the 9000S that's in the mail.

Scored a seriously swag rifle cabinet on craigslist this morning. Now I have a place to put more rifles (and therefore an excuse to buy them).

Crate of 7.62x54R ammo from SGAmmo. Unfortunately, I couldn't find my can opener, and it didn't come with a new one. That was fun.

Teeth FTW.

Generic nylon holster (open carry) for my Makarov. Neat thing is, even without the retention strap in place, it's snug enough that it doesn't fall out when held upside down. There's maybe 0.75 or 0.50 of an inch of empty space "past" the muzzle, as well. Sits comfortably, isn't heavy (which is good since I need to get a new belt: mine's literally falling apart), and is easy to get to. Less than $20.00, as well, if I remember correctly. Is it the best thing ever? No, but it's far more than good enough for me.

Picked up a set of Ruger SR556 flip up sights made by Troy off CL... Even came with the 45* side mounts for $100 :) now to get some ammo and re-zero this sucker.

Older than the last 48 hrs but still recent,.. $100 - 1891 Argentine Mauser carbine. Mildly sporterized.

In the last 48 - $400 - Glock 26 Gen 3 w/3 G17(?) mags with 2 boxes of Norinco 9mm FMJ - If this thing has fired more the a couple of mags, then someone with OCD must have cleaned it. Not to mention purchased with my store credit at the Pawn Shop for being the PC repair guy ;) I'll likely look to trade it though. I needs another .357 revolver real real bad.

Ruger SR22. I like the single action, but the double action is horrible. Now someone just needs to put out a threaded barrel for it.
