so ive been out of the game for a while now...between breakage and life......i havent seen the track in about 3 years

the stang went up for sale, cuz i wanted a quad

then a shooting happened, and all my "extra" guns got sold for HUGE profit

now i have my quad and never sold the stang. but i need stuff........

do i ?

A) burn a chip and factory "new" the stang and keep it
or B) get the stang good to go, and sell it ?????

seriously im at odds, my daughter has 1 year of community college before michigan state dental school

i love my stangs....im 6 in, but ive been chilling up north at my cabin too. and i need to have priorities

Ummm... Selling a gun or a 'Stang is never acceptable and you will always regret it.

Go buy your guns back and get rid of the quad...

[way high on the soapbox]

wtf where you thinking?

I could have sold my Saiga-12, in totally stock form, for MORE than I paid for my 'Stang and made 6x profit... It's still in my safe, and that's only *1* gun.

[/stepping down to regular soapbox height]

Get rid of the quad, buy Fox upgrades (or at least a TJ if you have the lust for dirt), and sit in the corner for 10 minutes and think about what you did!

[/soapbox]

My folks did for me what they could, while enjoying the life they worked hard for, while I was in college. I graduated with student loans and I don't regret it, or fault them for it. Bang the snot out of that 'Stang and tell your daughter you don't need any X-mas/B-day/Father's day gifts until she's out from under it (last year my Dad got a 6'8" set of Craftsman Professional tool boxes from me for X-mas.. It will come back to you!!!)

Ok.. Those 2 posts alone prove that you don't need to sell your 'stang! And yes, your firearms collection humbles me...

Looks to me like that TJ needs some REAL tires!

Soo... Take some of your windfall profits and buy some Mud Terrain KM/2s (I couldn't be happier with mine!!!) and ANYTHING that makes that sweet notch more angry!!!

Ummm... 3.73s and AKs are NEVER in the wrong thread, as far as this guy is concerned! But... I'm not the OP... OP? Pretty please? Can we talk about aggressive gears and AKs in your thread?

(Oh! Oh! Oh! Can we post pictures of our Aks to? also... are some of those VEPRs? Are any of them in x54R? If so... are any form sale?)

(PS.. Will that make you keep your sweet notch?)

all chi-coms for me, 3 NEW in box MAK90's from 1994, and 3 converted MAK90's from various years. FYI the MAK was a type 56 that was neutered to comply with the 1989 ban. after '94 all chinese guns were banned from importation

the only non chinese is the one with the SKS's, its a tantal AK74, 5.45 mm, i sold it cuz i hated it

the SKS's are all 1956 arsenal 26 guns (sino soviet guns)

no more for sale, and hellz yeah we can talk about gears.

but you said "aggressive"..... so its limited to 4.10. 4.30 and 4.56, we'll keep it street car friendly

and post op those AK's !!!

i love my AK's, but if i had to pick only gun forever.....its a no brainer
either one of these

so post that too....favorite gun

personally i think the M14 is the BEST battle rifle EVER created.
the AK is a close tie, but edged out because the 14 can go out to well over 1000 yards. the marine corps rifle team shoots 1000 yards open sights. the AK has the CQB advantage due to overall length....but all in all. M14 platform wins in my book

handguns? i have changed my tune

i used to say the only caliber worth having was .45 ACP, and the 1911 is the best handgun ever made. i have since changed my mind. the glock 19 has edged out the 1911 for "best" handgun. i appreciate the 9mm more, i carry a .380 now, and swore off that round too. but the glock 19....is simply too sexy to not have the crown

i just got a new 1911, if anyones in the market, TISAS .45 from buds guns. $379 delivered with case and 2 mec-gar mags. its turkish and rivals the low end kimbers

heres 30 rounds at 13 yards...its a 7.5" bull, i held a 2" group at 13 yards, 3 flyers but that was me getting used to it. that was day 1, right out of the box, didnt even clean it
