Picked up my new Hi Point 995RDTS carbine that I bought on grabagun.com a couple weeks ago. This model comes with a BSA red dot right from Hi Point. $315 out the door. Then ordered 2 extra mags and a magazine holder for the stock ($40 shipped). Can't wait to try it out this weekend.

I never seen such a terrible engraved serial number on a gun before until now [laugh]. Isn't she purty.......kidding.

This actually came last month: Italian 1884 Brescia M1870/1887/1915. Converted to 6,5 Carcano in 1916 as an Emergency measure.
 
And today: matching 1892 Spandau Gew88S; wartime economy conversion of a Gew88 to fire the S-patronen 7.92x57. Unit marked: K.F.R.7.162; the Kaiser Franz Garde-Grenadier-Regiment Nr.2, waffe #162.

CMC trigger came in from the group buy, installed this AM. Feels awesome, can't wait to get some range time with it. AR is finally ready to get some lead down range.

IMG_20140615_172245_400.jpg IMG_20140615_172314_118.jpg Found the m38 mosin (on the left) at Kittery Saturday and it followed me home. Been looking for a good carbine mosin and this one is in good shape. Brighter bore than my 91-30 and shoots a tighter group. And goes BOOOOOOOOOOM!!!!!!! Lots of fun........if you are into mosins and have not got a M44 or M38 carbing I recommend you get one they are so much fun.

I bought my first Aimpoint PRO for 1 of my AR's, and also a Nikon Prostaff Rimfire 3-9x40 for my other AR in .22LR.

I have yet to try out or sight in either one. FAIL. [rolleyes]
 
Although this rifle was actually ordered on January 7th of 2013, it was finally delivered June 4th 2014.

It was worth the wait [smile]
