Just up the street (short walk) from the Tucson layover hotel is a place called Black Weapons Armory. They have a couple nice 7.62 ARs. Good ones. Built by CMMG. $1800. I was surprised to see them in stock.
Here's the catch ---> no magazines !!! And no idea when they could get any.
5.56 ARs are around but the prices are silly right now.
And 5.56 PMAGs ? --- fugeddaboutit
The shelves were bare and the guy said everything is backordered.
Funny thing is they were doing a booming business selling these "Ban Cans". So people can bury their guns in their backyard when the feds ban or try to confiscate them.
Nothing but a painted piece of PVC pipe with stenciled lettering on them using the familiar "military" font commonly found on ammo cans, etc. They had rifle length and pistol length and various sizes from 4 inch to 10 inch with ordinary screw on plugs in the end.
About $10 worth of pipe going for $100 to $300. And people were buying them.
We are in the wrong business.

Cabela's, where I purchased my AR had four on hand when I called, and an hour later when I purchased mine they only had two left. They had 30-round mags too, but were super cheap for a ridiculous price. (Plastic/composite 30-round mag for $30!!
)Been shopping for a Magpul AR for sometime, cheapest I've been able to come by was $1400-1500. The 7.62 for $1800 doesn't sound too unreasonable considering the smaller caliber is running $300 behind it.
Thanks again, fly safe.

I have had Flightline Data do my Pilot Expense Reports for years. Seems they were sold to Sabre a couple years ago and the customer experience has dropped off considerably. It's middle February and I have not received my expense report yet, when I orderd it in early December last year. Why does it take so long?
Question is, where do you other Delta pilots get Expense Reports for Travel expenses, including meals and incidentals?
Do you have a service which prepares it for you other than Flightline?

L&G about Delta:
This has been fun but Toga gets quote of the week.
my eyes crossed the first time I read that but that's what I get for reading this thread from the last post forward.

That's the best gift a guy can get! If you've got the 1:7 or 1:8 twist give the Sierra 77g Match Kings a try. They lob really well, minimal upset at transonic and unbelievable fragmentation inside 100y on thin skinned game.

YUP! Stock up now, because if Hussein (it's his middle name) gets his way, we'll have to defend our homes with these in the next decade.

Even if it's not intended, it is what you sound like.
