Um, the local shop I go to sells 500 round packs of 7.62x39mm in the form of a plastic-wraped slab of 20 round boxes of Wolf. They also carry 1000 round packs, which I assume come in a metal ammo can or something. I buy .22LR in 525 round packs of Remington High-V Golden Bullet HP's at Big 5 Sporting Goods.
I got this (apparently new) variation called the 870 Tactical Magnum. 12gx3", 20" CYL with brass bead sight, three round extender on the tube with clamp, black plastic LE forend and pistolgrip buttstock, sling points on stock and extender clamp, and the barrel, tube, extender and reciever are all parkerized OD green. I think it was about $500 or so out the door. Of course we have this stupid waiting period here in Cali so I don't get to pick it up till a week from Monday.

Yup, only had a 500 pack and we were trying to get the barrel hot enough to bake mini-pita breads in. ;D Didn't have enough money for more than that though. I just dumped almost all my graduation gift money on a new Remmy 870. Which by the way, I just graduated from high school. Now I have a summer that is almost totally dedicated to shooting!!!

Um, I'm still here, I guess...
Actually I registered here when this place was first created, but I never posted anything and I totally forgot about the place. Anyway, here I am!
And yup, I was just out shooting today, teaching my 10 year old cousin how to shoot. Today was the family reunion and my uncle and cousin went with me and we taught him firearm safety and let him shoot an Ithaca single-shot .22, a 10-22 and an SKS. And now I'm out of 7.62x39mm, so that means we had fun. ;D

Buckshot:
Meh, I don't think its any worse than a .357 Mag. I say if it shoots bullets and works well, it's good enough for me. Having it in stainless steel with black grips with a big red triangle on either side is pretty cool too. ;D
As for the S&W 1076, I never thought very highly of that thing. It was originally delivered with many mechanical defects that had to be fixed back at the factory. After that it worked fine, but I'd still rather have a Delta.

Yes, I'm talking about what would be correctly referred to as the 10mm Norma Automatic, with specific emphasis on Colt's take on the 10mm, the Delta Elite semiauto pistol based on the 1911 series.

Hmm, 9mm or .45? Neither. ;D

The SKS gets the biggest workout, closely followed by both of the shotguns (Baikal SxS and Remmy 870). I shoot my Mossberg boltaction .22 alot also.

You can try uploading them again, or try a different image host. I use Imageshack, works pretty well.

None of the above, except in my current financial state I may have to call off my layawayed Mauser.

Yeah, it wasn't a service cartridge and it's not that popular in America, but apparently someone had this one custom chambered for it. The nice thing is it comes with dies so I can roll my own from 7x57mm brass. It also forces me to get a reloading setup. ;D

It's a sporterized military smallring. Double-set trigger, 6.5x57mm, scope but no irons, pretty light weight. No cosmo to be found. It's my Mosin that I still haven't gotten all the cosmo out of.

I got my Mauser payed of for Christmas, this makes me happy. California waiting period laws make me mad. Also got a big bottle of Hoppe's #9.

Due to recent financial issues, I haven't gone out to pick up any 7.62x39mm for some while now (yeah I know it's usually cheap ammo, but I usually go through an entire 1000 round pack in one or two days.) I've mostly just been shooting .22 and 12g lately.
