That's nice. can i ask how much ? I have a cannon but want to buy two more -one for my son and daughter. The cannon is ok but want a better one for higher temp for fire.
 
Haven't bpught anything for so long I've fogotten what it feels like. I think my latest purchase was sometime before Thanksgiving. Going to a gun show this coming weekend and will spend like a drunken sailor.
 
Latest purchase? Well, it wasn't so much me doing the buying as it was my wife who pushed things along. So, October she or I have purchased a Hornady LnL AP w/ shell plates in .38, .44, .45., .30-06 and dies in .44 and .45 ACP, 1,500 158 gr. LSWC's and 5,000 SP primers. With the powder and brass now on hand, I only need LP primers to be set for shooting my handguns for the next couple of years. Cool!
 
My wife, who is very cool about all this stuff, checked it out and said she thought it was pretty neat. She then said that she had noticed at $600 charge on the card from LaRue and asked what did I get from there. I said the Aimpoint. I got one of those looks from her. I explained that it was actually a pretty good deal including the LaRue mount. I got another one of of those looks. She's pretty frugal, but every now and then gets a wild hair.... and when she does she knows I can't protest too much. :D

Them little Aimpoints are great Phil! I went the cheaper route and picked up the Vortex version recently, and just ordered a kitchen sink rail system (you know, attach everything including the kitchen sink?) for my litte AK so as I can mount the thing. Oh yeah, bought an AK sight adjuster thingy from Larry, too, that one oughta be here tomorrow....

Lots of great reviews on the Vortex.

Yup, I got a new AR upper with a kitchen sink accommodating rail a couple weeks ago (which of course I had to buy the Aimpoint :)). Might as well add it to the list here of newly acquired. I don't think I'm going to get carried away... this is about it... maybe a light... maybe.

And while we're on the subject of red dots... I just got this Burris FastFire III a few days ago. What a disappointment. The glass has SIGNIFICANT DISTORTION and the button thingy that is supposed to cycle through the brightness levels sometimes works... sometimes doesn't. I was much happier with my dime store Primary Arms MicroDot on it. :rolleyes:
I'll add a pic of it which includes a Sparrow I bought in 2012 that I finally got the tax stamp about a month ago. :rolleyes:

Well this is my last target. 56 rounds worth. (Smaller holes were a .22lr sig mosquito)

A CZ-52. Why, might you ask? Because a friend gave me 600 rounds of 7.62x25 Torkarev ammo.

First time I've ever bought a gun to go with the ammo......

Don't know why, but this forum will only allow me to upload a single image per post? :confused:

Anyways, also added a Norinco M92 12 gauge home defense shot gun.

So I added quite a bit to the collection the last couple days. I'll try and get them all.

-1 pink 80% lower. This one is getting built up to just be a standard 5.56 Rifle.
New parts to go with this are,
-A DPMS complete upper. It's used but barely. Just gonna be adding/subtracting a few things. I think I'm going to take off the low-pro gas block and put the A2 post on it. It might also get the hellaciously spiked muzzle brake off the Sport barrel, we'll see if the girlfriend wants it or not.
-A complete lower parts kit to get it ready once I finish milling it out.
-It'll end up getting the buffer/buffer tube from the Sport lower and probably a new grip. A lot of the parts are going to end up Cerakoted/powder coated/painted depending on what I can get to match the lower the closest.
-And a standard stock. The girlfriend is still looking at and "trying on" different stocks so we'll see what she settles on.

-1 black 80% lower. Now this is what I'm excited about!!! It's getting built up to be a 7.62x39 pistol. New goodies for this bad boy are
-7.5" 7.62 barrel
-Pistol buffer/buffer tube. I picked this one up locally just to get it together. It's got a Rock River Enhanced fluted buffer tube on the way. And a Sig brace in the near future.
-2 ASC 30 rd mags. Not pictured cuz they're in the mail still, should be here shortly.
-Mako magwell grip that is also in transit. Expecting any day.
-Low-pro gas block and pistol-length gas tube (not pictured) for going under the YHM quad rail.
-7.62 bolt face to replace the factory 5.56 face because I'll be using the Sport BCG with a modified firing pin.

-2 more GripPod GPS-02's. Absolutely LOVE these, and already had one, so when I saw them at a good price I couldn't pass up a couple more.

So the plan is to use the DPMS upper and maybe a couple parts from the Sport lower to get the pink rifle complete. Than I'm using the Sport upper as the host for the 7.62 build. It's getting the 7.5" 7.62 barrel, the x39 bolt face, and low-pro gas block and pistol length gas system. Still unsure what I'm going with for a muzzle device, but I'm leaning towards the Noveske Flaming Pig. We'll see tho. Just picked up a pistol buffer tube and buffer locally, but that's gonna change here shortly. That Rock River Enhanced sure is sexy... As soon as the Mako magwell gets in it's going on as well, but I have an AFG if I don't end up liking that.
