Bang Shootie conversation

[Pepe_Silvia]

I also have a 74.
Would like a 105

I have a bunch of 5.45×39mm which has recently become more difficult to find.

It's definitely not cheap for what it is. Just ordered 480 rounds of steel case at 52 cents per round.

I feel the need, the need for bang shootie.

The wallet is a nice touch. Is it a bit lighter than before?

A tad.
Wife took it and hid it. Lol

This is my new Gahendra Martini Rifle chambered in .577/.450.

It is the Mahendra variant of the Martini Henry rifle. Looks like it was made in Nepal under the direction of General Gahendra Rana.
With just the small amount of research i've done it looks like it might be dated around 1890-1914. I'm still looking into that.
I got 30 rounds with it, but I'm taking it to my guy to go over it all just to be sure I've not overlooked anything before setting it off.

Damn that’s cool.

 

[Tin Man]

Verily

I just hope it don't do me like the .45 egyption I got did.
That gun is why I always have a 2nd guy check over what I think. lol

Yup. Me too.
My fatal malfunction was with an AE Eddie stone.
It still makes me sad.

BTW 30-06 is very dramatic when it goes wrong

I’m looking at the full frame revolver on the wall with the holster.

The post mark on the letter that picture came to my grandmother in was dated Dec 6th 1941.

I’m assuming everyone knows why that’s significant
