BARF Militia

Chabot range, Saturday 9 August.

Result of a friend's n00bage reloading effort being fired from my now-deceased Wilson KZ-45. His n00bageidity overloaded the powder and blew the excess into my face. No permanent damage to me (I can't get much less attractive, so that's a plus), but I've got an impressive black eye and small shrapnel embedded in my right cheek (face, not butt, ya mooks...:twofinger). The gun is over. The blast split the extraction port on the right side of the gun, cracked the rear of the slide, cracked the polymer lower, blew out the magazine, and melted the round underneath. Wilson will charge $1,200-$1400 to repair it, which is a new gun.

Ezekiel/Joe and Ironbutt/Chad were there to render assistance. Another BARFer was also there (sorry, I was in a little bit of shock and can't remember his name).

Anyway, upshot (get it??:teeth) is - Don't trust n00b reloads, ever. If you are reloading, make sure your powder weights before and after loading match the number of rounds. Otherwise you've double-loaded and might get this, or worse...


Seen the Face & now the blood, how about showing the remains of that paperweight?

You are a savage riding out to meet with me after this happened. Glad you are ok and heal up.

It was me, I thought you might have a concussion. You kept thinking I was Chad :laughing
Really glad you're OK, and again, buy a new gun before you buy a new shirt :teeth
 
Yes. I hate the waiting. I've got a CZCS tuned Shadow in the gun jail right now. I pick it up on the 16th. Because well, fuck Jerry Brown anyway. Last chance I will have to afford something SSE'd.


Very nice!!


Love my CZ. :cool
 
We stopped in Cabela's on the way to Road America last week. Here's my newest acquisition. 1905 Ithaca, 10 gauge.

Double Tap:thumbup
 
^^That thing doesn't deliver a tap, it delivers a blow... :laughing

That thing won't be doing any damned tapping until I can find low pressure shells, this is ridiculous.
After I fire some proof loads, it will live over my desk until my daughter starts dating. I'm sure that will ensure she gets home on time.

'Sir, may I marry your daughter?'

'Sure, but to prove you're a man you have to fire this here shotgun'.

'A hundred times'
:rofl
 
That cz sounds (reviews) and looks nice! Wonder if anyone has em locally...

Not a chance. There is a wait list from the CZ custom shop and they are not Ca. compliant. You would be very lucky to even find a roster compliant standard service grade SP-01. Shadows and Accu-Shadows are competition pistols and they are in very high demand. I ordered it from a place in Pa. and had it SSE'ed because :twofinger Jerry Brown.
 
Magnesium? Oh this can ONLY end well. :laughing
It takes quite a bit to get Magnesium to catch on fire, and that's even without a coating. These are coated.

I have a couple (not blem) and they feel too light to be true. Haven't done any real testing on them yet, probably have 600rd through one and 200 through the other, but they work well and save weight without any real downsides.
