I’m thinking of getting a barrel blank for the next one and having it threaded to the receiver by Connecticut precision. Sort of the next step into insanity. :blink:

i had Randy at Ct precision thread my receiver and barrel and re-chamber on my 10/22. Its a Kidd barrel so it shot before but it did get rid of the occasional flyer and tightened up the groups overall really nicely. I think that is $$ well spent. The odd thing was after I had it done the ammo it did not like before it loves now. CCI standard shoots MOA which is nice because it is only 30$ a brick in Ct. So I don't always have to be looking for SK everywhere I go.

Did USI in concord ever sort out the rifle range deal? I grew up in the East bay and spent my fair share of time there. I was saddened to hear that the rifle range was not open.

I loved mine, but the baby Beretta is just too cute, and I didn't need two baby .22's :)

Well, to resurrect an oldish thread since I cannot for the life of me find the Gun Porn thread (is it in an area off limits to us "Don't wish to Play" types?)

New acquisition - a 22/45 short bull barrel, on a Volquartsen lower with the "Standard" grip angle to match the Mk IV. Stippled grips from the folks at Altamont. Shoots like a dream, rejoices in the name of "BullShort". :)

Target was shot at 7 yards, offhand - black is about 2-1/4" - so including the flyer they're all in a 2-3/4" circle, ignoring the flyer it comes down to 2" . Could use another click to the left, I suppose, but that will happen next outing. Ammo was CCI MiniMax LRN. Hoping groups shrink a little with more target-y ammo. :)

Did you try entering "gun porn" in the search box?

It's the top sticky under Topics in Rainbows and Unicorns, if that helps.

"Yes", and "It does" - in that order.

"Rainbows and Unicorns" is invisible to us "Don't want to Play" folks. Such is life. :)

Ahh. Maybe we should lobby for "Gun Porn" to be made its own subforum on the Index page and visible to everyone, since it's surely something EVERYBODY wants to see.
