I wish TN did that with our HCP.

It definitely speeds up the process. You also don’t have to spend that limbo time waiting for the background check to come back wondering if somehow the gov will screw it up.

Purely an aesthetic thing for me on the wood. Imo some of those early guns are works of art, and the newer stuff with wood furniture always comes across as a cheap knock off.

I dont even like the look of my preference in wood. *ok I have to admit with just a wooden stock it looks pretty good.

Yeah, not a fan.

I have to admit I enjoy the extra lethality the extra black pieces provide.

I’d say it’s more of a show piece. I’d be curious to see how well the wood handguard held up.

Good point. I would think they would have to choose tree species pretty carefully.

Most of the "fighting rifles" tended to use whatever they could get quickly into production without regard to looks. I don't think I've ever seen an AK or SKS with a factory stock that looked nice. A lot of the post war designs were like that.

I will say this though, some of the Garand stocks I've seen over the years cleaned up very nicely. Same for some select M14s.

I do think there is nothing that looks nicer than a wood stock on a bolt action. You should take a look at some of the custom stock blanks that are sold. And let me know how much your eyes pop open at the price.

Maybe this has been discussed so forgive me if I missed it, but what's the consensus thought on bullet prices going forward?

Will the shortage and cost remain due to the fear from the democratic political situation or will it regulate back down after a certain time ?

No way to know at this point. I've definitely never seen an ammo shortage this bad. In fact, I was just looking up 22 mag ammo online and it was averaging almost $1.00 per round. 44 mag at $2.00 per round.

Things definitely seem to be getting worse at the moment.

Even 4:10 shells are hard to find.

338 mag seems like the only caliber I see with regularity anywhere.

I am now much happier, the discussion has taken a much better direction.

I would think that the majority of "responsible" gun owners aren't the criminals.The "bad" guys wouldn't comply with the new law regardless.

Increase the cost of handguns for legitimate gun owners also.

The government doesn’t control that.

Duh... you seriously don’t think government regulations doesn’t increase the cost of any product? Lord help you.

What are they going to regulate? A tax? Lol.

Does your momma know you have her password?

Does your momma know you have her password?

Yep. And she buys all my guns since I’m a convicted felon. I then turnaround and sell them to thugs out of the trunk of my car. Tax free of course.

Well maybe she can help you read & reason.

No she’s a liberal dimocrat.

He’s already contradicting himself. Hopefully one of the two moderate Dems will vote to not confirm.
