Suggestion for those looking for a rifle now

You should have got a couple of 12500 round drums. They were $3500 or something like that.

I would skip the ACOG and buy more ammo. That's the logical thing to do in this preplexing situation. I've never been one for fancies and blings on my insturments of death. Quite seriously I have no clue what an ACOG is supposed to do anyway.

That's cuz your not a real operator.

My favorite rifles to shoot are my .45 long colt Winchesters, especially the little Trapper models. But Hell, I still write with a fountain pen and call the refrigerator the "ice box".

I've been stocking up for a while, but I don't think there is ever enough. I made Wal Mart runs over the last couple of days and bought .22, .38 special, 12 ga buckshot, #4, and slugs, .30 carbine, 9mm, .45 acp.

IF this passes, and things get back to a little normal, I am going to buy a ton of .223.

As for odd calibers, I have a .405 Winchester model 1895 and a Winchester Model 1907 in .351 WSL

Last year at an auction, there was an 1907 .351, it had a 5-6" long magazine, and a "forward" hand grip, like on a late model Thompson........was this standard or added later? Interesting rifle and round to say the least.

Those were added later. The 1907 has quite an impressive history, that, unfortunately, has been lost to the mists of time. It was the first high cap semi auto battle rifle. The French order per a bunch for use in WW I by their pilots. It saw some action with British and American troops in the trenches. I think I recall reading somewhere that Gen. Pershing had a few on his 1916 Punitive Expedition into Mexico after Villa's raid on Columbus, New Mexico. It was a favorite of both law enforcement and gangsters during the 20s to the 40s. The border patrol used them as did many corrections facilities. I have period 10 round mags for mine. I have a deluxe model with checkered fore grip and stock. Cabelas had one for $4000. I stole mine at an auction for a little over $600.

So now I need a rifle that shoots .32 H&R Magnum, preferably in an AR platform. Any ideas?

Two older gentlemen were bidding on this one, I quit listening when it surpassed $1k. The two of them stood by that gun until it came up, so I'm thinking they were determined.

Sorry my iPad and iPhone often auto correct my sentences. Really, I'm not high.

I wish I had a 45 long colt lever to go with my SA. I have a 44 mag that is my favorite lever gun. Couldn't hardly afford to shoot it until I started reloading. Fun guns to shoot. Especially at leftover produce or pumpkins/ melons. Good times.

OK. Now I just gotta figure out to how to make my 30-30 lever gun a High capacity assault rifle.

I painted the stock black, and added a red-dot/laser, but I just can't get the 30 round tube magazine to work.
