Kentucky Armory Club

My BIL has a 3/8" thick stainless plate, shot 5 times with 160 gr. soft-point ammo thru a Swedish Mauser. It has 5 holes in it.

I just found the 1st tick of the season crawling up my neck. Burned it.

My son is stationed in El Paso,TX in the Army. I sent him a text today about it being 80 degrees here. He said they were getting freezing rain mixed with snow. A couple of hours later he said they were getting hail. This was while I was putting 2 window A/C units in my bedroom and living room.

My DIL prob. weighs 120 dripping wet. She has fired 2 of my Swedes over 100 shots in about an hour.

The only thing my TV is hooked to besides 110v. is my antenna on a pole next to my house.

Now you know why our military started issuing M14s to soldiers going to Iraq. When my DIL left for Iraq tour #2 in Dec. '05 she was issued a M14 and a M4 carbine. When she returned she bought a M1A.

If Obama lose the election this November, how many of these EOs will he issue in the 2 1/2 months he will still be President? Scary thought.

I cannot imagine what kind of hatred would justify killing children.

6.5x55, uses a .264" diameter bullet. The Swedes are said to be the most accurate of all the Mausers.

I should have said "try guncrank." oops
I had to take the sideplate off my 66 once when the ejector rod backed out a little and cylinder release latch would not push it far enough to open. Was not too difficult, but I would not do it unless necessary.

Worked for me. Now it's gone. ?

Try gunpartscorp dot com(numrich).

MK, I have a box of 45 auto rim brass in the basement. I will check the rim thickness tomorrow and let you know what it measures. Writing myself a note now so I won't forget.

I live 137 miles from New Haven and I am a member. Only 2 1/2 hour drive each way. lol

The M38 is my favorite shooter.Next is the M96 1917. Someone ground the cocking piece on an angle, so it has almost a hair-trigger. Great for target work, but not for hunting I suppose. If I could only have 1 rifle, it would be a Swede.

Aim Surplus has Aguila 230 gr. FMJ for $15.50/box. Shipping will run about $1.50/box for 10 boxes. By RIA and my Taurus like this ammo.

Forgot +1 for sharp1983 from yesterday

This would be illegal in the U.S.A. since it fires more than 1 round with a single pull of the trigger.

Went to the local hardware store and Home Depot. Got a new chain, spark plug and scrench for 1 chainsaw, a spark plug for another, and a pull rope for the 3rd one. Also a gallon of bar and chain oil, some 5/32" and 3/16" round files, a flat file and depth gage. Stopped at Speedway and got a 44 oz. D...

Not gonna make this one. Have fun.

My grandson and I were playing with my cell phone one day, taking pics of eyeballs. And there's an old church hymn "There's an all-seeing eye watching you". I was wondering if it freaked anyone out. lol

I had a dog once and fed him leftovers. He starved to death. J/K
