Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

My brother reloads his own ammo and I saw his setup yesterday. He couldn't believe I paid $100 for 200 rounds of the 40S&W practice rounds I picked up at Gander Mountain. He said if I picked up the powder, he'd load me some. His preference is for Winchester 231 and for 8#, he'll load me 800 rounds.

Best price I've seen thus far is at Mid South Shooters Supply at $160 shipped, so I just pulled the trigger. Backorder on the powder is ~ 10 days according to the site.

I'm not a twitter geek by any means, but I searched AR-15 and saw that there are over 1M PMAG's on backorder now. Just imagine what that number is when you figure all manufacturers of 30 round magazines.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

If I get into 3gun next year, there's no doubt I'll need to start reloading my won.

:r that's a huge number....

good luck confiscating all of em!

You should take a look at Vitha Vhori (sp) powder really clean and even burn so you get better muzzle velocities without a weapon rending increase in chamber pressures. For Pistols 3N37 is a very good choice and for medium to large bore rifles N300.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

It was just in the news. Amazing number.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

And the number of guns bought in 2012 borders 3,000,000! Obama certainly helped out the firearm industry's bottom line lol

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Justin think that number maybe a little low - 2,900,000 back ground checks in December alone!!! Up almost 50% from the previous record in December 2008.

No doubt Barrack Hussein Obama is the top firearms sales person of all times ;)

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

2,900,000 background checks, and that's not counting multiple purchases on one check :)

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Yep-my call yesterday was for the Shield and 2 stripped lowers. There will be another call made though when I pick up my other Shield in a week though.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Question for any of you who have picked up multiple items at a FFL:

Have you been charged for each item or just per call? I was expecting to pay $25 for each item, but he only charges $25 for all of it as he charges by the call, not the number of items.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Its only $20-$25 per check even if you have 2 firearms, I believe if you have 3 or more firearms the dealer needs to complete what is called a multiply sale form which will delay the process.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

He told me I could buy as many long guns in the same purchase as I wanted, but the minute you have 2 handguns in the same purchase, I fill out a form with all of my personal information, type of gun, serial number, etc. that is faxed to the state before I even walk out of the store.

Hence, I'm waiting to go back for a week and pay the additional $25 so the state doesn't get that info.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

IN maybe a little different then Pa.
In Pa you could do another back ground check moments after you did the first. Just can't have 3 or more on the same form.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

I called all the local dealers here, b/c I have a few stripped lowers on order, and all of them said they charged PER ITEM received, not per shipment. :(
