These Gave Me A Boost Down The Rabbit Hole
« on: May 09, 2023, 03:44:53 PM »
Hi Guys,

Here's the SKS purchases I made in 2016 including some salvage work. I already had 4 (Yugo M59/66, 2 Romys and an IC), but the previous December of '15, I him-hawed around on a nice Tula Russian for $350, and when I went back the next day it was gone. Turned around and went to another LGS that had a Paratrooper sitting for a while at $299 and jumped on it. After missing out on the Russian, I made it a point to go after any SKS that crossed my path for next 5 years. PAX

Alby, Alby, Izzy, 4 digit Sino, no-name Bubba Public Security save in a Timbersmith (weights about 5.3 kilos), letter, letter, NORINCO, letter FrankinBubbaPara in Choate furniture. Picked another Alby in 2017.

Kind of like this you mean? I have dug my own Rabbit hole a time or two, LOL.


My Avatar is a pic of the real "Ghost" SKS in honor of xxxsks(joe). It is a pic of a fully decked out SKS in Capco hunter's kit. This was mine, the only other pic I had ever seen of one was Joe's.

No Kel-Tecs in the collection. I had to look them up, and now I get it  ;) With a name like P32, I almost ought to have one.





I do need to work up some composite pictures one of these days  thumb1

Come on GM, you know how modest P32 is. He just isn't one to boast about the fact that he had to buy a second home to house all his firearms. rofl rofl rofl

Hey, c’mon, it’s definitely  only  a  few hundred and  way  less than 51% of all WA firearms  :P  :))

Fortunately I’m okay owning and using what I have already acquired. Nevertheless, I’m still looking for some off-grid real estate in ID  8)

I’d like to find 5-10 acres with trees in the hills. A creek or some wetlands would be great but we’ll see what I can find.

Sounds like the Panhandle. Check out Kelso Lake, PAX

Thanks. I've been searching on LandWatch for "northern Idaho", so it gives me the panhandle counties. Up until a couple of months ago I was looking at WA north of Spokane too, but not any more.
