Default Finally back to working on the stang

Recently my GF got me into guns and hunting. My god is gun collecting addicting.

Finally got my head on track, buy my diskbrakeswap kit next friday, and my TKO600 a few weeks after that. I cant wait for real parts! I was been scrubbing old crap out of the engine bay and painting it past week or two.

I am painting the bay a gray to match the wheels, and putting Le Mans stripes, also gray, over the black. Mmmm

Nice. Gun collecting IS a terrible hobby. I have bought and sold enough guns to make me consider getting a custom plate for my truck

LRDOWR

Lol. Lord of War was an awesome movie. I deal mainly in Curios and Relics WWII guns, but I have a WASR10 Double stack, Springfield XD40 handgun, Remington Tactical 12GA, 1943 Mosin Nagant, 1933 Mauser K98, and have had an M1 Garand and Lee Enfield. I'm buying a Stag 3L AR15 before Bammy enacts a ban, and this is the only AR15 made for lefties. Also considering buying a Dragunov. LOL. It's sickening how much fun it is collecting guns.

I actually have been providing a guy I know "legal" copies of software in exchange for .40 SW ammo. Works out pretty well. :-D

I'm jealous you have decent weather in TX, I can't touch my car till march or so, it is ungodly cold here in MI.

I bought a Chinese Polytech "AK 47" first, then a 1920's Davis-Warner Infallible .32 pistol(very strange), and bought a Mosin Nagant 91/30 last week.

I want the Dragonov but, they are expensive, in relationship to the other 3. I paid $350 for all three of the other, the Dragonov in shops around here is $800-900.

I have not started a collection of my own yet, but it is basically mine because my dad bases all of his decisions off of what i like, nothing we actually shoot though, he and i both like derringers, small revolvers, and my favorite; pepperbox revolvers.
we are also looking into buying our neighbors AR-15, Mac 10, and a 1918 BAR

omgzzzzzzzzzzzz a 1918. ill own one when i have an extra 40k.

The mosin is a fun one to shoot. mines a 91/30 too, hex receiver. a real tack driver. more of a kick than any other gun ive fired, aside from a barrett .50.

im lovin that garand, gun. I miss mine so much. I know a guy wants to sell an ALL SA one for $600 but I don't have the cash ATM.

Yeah, the mosin makes my AK feel like a .22. Mine shoots up and right, I've heard you can correct this with the bayonet on??

I'm Nathan, and I'm a gun addict. I've been sober for about 3 months but recently fell back off the wagon after I found a great deal on a .40.

Gun collecting is almost as addictive as speed (no not the actual drug), once you get some you keep wanting more and more until you realize that you're just a bunker away from turning into Burt from Tremors.

Unfortunately my gun collection isn't growing as steadily as it once did.
