In defiance of the gloom and doom, sure death and world wide financial collapse I just
ordered me a brand new AR 15 barrel from Krieger. After tax and shipping I should have
enough cash left from my Gov't check to buy a box of ammo.

By the way, shouldn't that be "loaded and locked? I mean if you lock the breech before you're loaded, it kinda screws things up aye? Just a thought, I'm a thinker, it's what I do. grin

I've been wanting to build a high end AR for a while.
As Johnny would say I got it one piece at a time.

Way to go! My son had 1500 rounds of SKS ammo but no gun for it. He just picked up a russian made SKS yesterday for $200. Darn thing will outshoot his custom Winchester!

SKS for $200!!!! That's a great deal these days. They go about $350+ now. I love that rifle. I have a couple and they are all great shooters for what they are.

OK. Googled it and here is where it comes from:

Back in the WWII days, you would Lock the action of the M1 back and then load. Hence "lock and load" now it all makes sense. I'm "locked and loaded" because to achieve that, you had to "lock and load" in the first place. Now that you were loaded, you are in battery, therefore "locked and loaded"

I would hope so. The average SKS is no tack driver. You're looking at 2-3" at 100 yards with junk ammo. They are all used military rifles though. So, that is to be expected. An SKS is a pickup truck, you are building a Corvette.

Don't know about how it will get here just yet Nessy.
Worst case I will just have to ride on over there.
They are only a couple hours from here.

I stocked up on BBs and pellets and got my garden going early.

Figure if it all really does hit the fan? My boys can keep us in small game and birds year round? Bought rual king out of 110s as well?

Lol

Cashier asked me what I was up to. Said I just went grocery shopping for a year for less than 200$ for a family of 6 plus some extended members.

She didn't get it and my wife laughed.
