We used to call those Gun Show Starter kits at the Range I frequent. Typically some hill jack that just turned 18 with $150 bucks to spend buys one of them (or a Mosin-Nagant) and a box of steel core ammo, brings it straight to the range without so much as cleaning or inspecting his new thunderstick, and then proceeds to raise all kind of hell on the range while experiancing multiple malfunctions and shooting up the wall and ceiling as much as the back stop.
If he brings a Mosin-Nagant to the range without cleaning or inspecting, he'd be lucky to get the bolt open . . . :icon_tong

Ahh the MN..

Now I need to figure out what I am buying at the gun show tomorrow.

Definites:
30rd Mags for my AR's
Ammo (unless it's cheaper online with shipping included)

Strong possibilites:
AR Lowers provided I can get a better deal than what I would get online with FFL fees and such.
Some cheap Mil-Surp.
Revolver in 357 or 44mag. Leaning towards 357.

FYI - the Corpus gun show blows. Go to the big one in Houston held at the George R. Brown Convention Center.

Don't feel like filling out the paperwork to go to Houston.

I think whatever I would save by going there, I would blow on diesel.

Ive seen many a bolt kicked open...... Scary.
Actually if you do what you're supposed to, clean out the Cosmoline, and CLP the thing, it works just fine. Corrosive primers suck though. </threadjack>

No they don't ... :)

*edit* ... let's cut the crap ... buy a high quality AR. We don't NEEEEEEED no STEEEEEEENKIN' AK-74's ... after all, who "won" the Cold War???

Wait... I remember multiple conversations containing statements by yourself that if you owned one you needed the other. I even remember a picture of both that you posted while making said statement.
