  4. Wanting to build a plinker

    I have the 10/22 in an achangle kit with A2 style sights and to be honest I wish I would of gone with the S&W M&P 15-22 because the archangle kit looks and feels so cheap and its a pain to take it out of the kit to field strip it and clean it

    OP if you can get the S&W get the instead

    Germans would label the weapon as weapon of war just because of the appearance. That is why I have decided on the 10/22 in stock form to get it here then I can modify till the cows come home. :)

    be very careful about this make sure when she does her paperwork on it she mentions its a GIFT for you. It could otherwise be called an attempted straw purchase. you dont want that.

    Yes, good to go on that. she can also list it as an inheritance. She still has 2 of my shotguns hostage at the moment as well. lol

    Since you want an AR.. Can you get a Smith & Wesson MP15 22? Its an AR15 that shoots a .22Long round? Would they consider that to be a "weapon of war"... I have on and its fun to shoot.

    i like your thinking but all I need is a Archangel kit for the 10-22 and I have a SR22. :)(already have the plan;))

    im working on one. Its an AR though lol

    Your AR will probably be cheaper than my 10/22. Dealer quoted $605 for the stainless target model with bull barrel. It will save me 200+ in the long run not having to buy and ship the barrel later.

    605? ouch...seen for 375 here BNIB...but I like to buy the plain jane 199 10/22 and then add gooides as I see fit, with just a properly bedded stock, a free floated barrel, a decent optic and some decent ammo, my first 10/22 would shoot the centers out of quarters at 100yds with ease. great little rifles that are fun and piss cheap to shoot alot.

    Yep, ouch.. My Mom is actually looking for one cheaper in Florida for me. Once she finds it and buys it I can add it to my Weapons card here in Germany and then she can simply send it through the post office to me. :)

    Ok I was looking into getting an AR for occasional shooting and a gun safe queen but the Germans charge you about $3k for a basic model AR and even once you purchase it you may not be able to keep it because it is considered a "weapon of war" So I started thinking of a cheap, fun to shoot alternative.. Ruger 10/22 I decided.

    I was looking for a bull barrel gun and thought about how easy it will be to build my own gun to my specs. So I decided to build one in an Archangel stock kit with a Shooter's Ridge fluted bull barrel. It will still take a month or 2 to have it added to my German weapons card but once I find one I can start buying parts!

    Anyone else have a custom plinker?

    I had a g&s competition 700. What a beast! They are the model number in watts at 4 ohm. They are 2 ohm stable but NOT bridge able. Look for almost double the power at 2 ohms. I also contacted PPI about them in the day and they did not have any other info on them.

    I still regret selling my 700..

    I'm gonna take you back like a punch 45 and an alpine 2 shaft cassette deck

    I like that I wonder how many people have used 2 shaft players. This really makes ya think how far tech has really come ome good some bad. :popcorn: I wonder what will be instore for the next 20 or so years. IMO one of the best things to come out that I wish we had back in the day. Is Steves' Destortion Detector that would have made a big difference in installs back in the day. Where was you back then Steve you could have made it for us then LOL.

    Also remember when I discovered the shafts were adjustable it made things much easier!!

    Well my g/f has a masters degree in Animal Nutrition... She paid for her degree on her own dime... You are correct though Most Vet Techs have like 8hrs of total nutritional training... But my g/f soon to be wife has 4.5years of schooling PLUS 3 years on the job experience in the Vet field :)

    Good stuff

    I hope she is one of the few that actually gives good advice and can keep some of our pups healthy. The Science diet and Iams guys are not doing it.. :( Science diet RD (for heavier dogs) is 90% peanut shells. the rest is added flavors and the poor dogs are starved for nutrition. The end up with no energy, skin diseases, etc.

    BUUUT Vets reccomend it so it MUST be good...

    My shepherd LOVES the scraps that i cooked up for her lol... so NOTHING from the deer really went

    My brother always said never give the liver to the dogs.....any truth to that?

    The deer is being turned into Brisket,Roast,Jerky and Steak.... As far as the liver thing there is nothing wrong with givign a dog deer parts as long as they are thoroughly cooked... That information came from my g/f who is a liscensed Vet. Technician

    From what I have heard (may be completely false) Vets get about 2 hours the entire time they are in school about animal nutrition and normally is is sponsored by Iams or Sceince diet. Reat up on the B.A.R.F. Diet. want a healthy pet, feed them raw foods. Vet told me my Golden Retriever had about 6 months to live, I changed his diet to B.A.R.F. and had him for an additional 6 wonderful years.

    I was always taught, if you don't have something nice to say.... I visit all the time to collect knowledge but I try not to comment most of the time because many of the younger members would think I am an A$$.. There are just so many young people that really do not know what a true Audiophile is but think they are one (or the little hoodlums that post sometimes that just need a boot in the a$$..)

    So, I have been here for a long time, I am a nice guy, so I don't post. :)
