    Nice clock! I have one just like it. image
  • So if I read this right you paid $101 for $21 face of 90% and actually received $101 face????
  • I was all ready to congratulate you on having two Children (Twins). And what! I Open it up and Its Coins/90% image

    The 90% is nice, but I really like that AK47, and what is the other, looks kinda like a .50 Cal sniper setup?

    No. He paid 21 X $101 = $2121 for $101 face value of silver coins.

    the Washies may be worth searching, if you have nothing to do.

    is that a Van Dyke on the desk?

    will it fit in your 'go bag'?image

  • Way to go TexasNationals!CG=Coins and guns. I went to Starbucks on Valentine's Day to support the 2nd Amendment. I ordered a small " house cafe mocha latte expresso vanilla extra hot" paid with a 1976 $2 bill.

    My server was a typical Starbucks employee (talk about cloning). Server explained several people showed up with $2 bills, but the real action was at another Starbucks location.

    I haven't bought any physical metals for two weeks now. Instead, I will be making further investments in gold equities. image

    FiveCents, Have you checked out KELTEC's PLR 16 5.56mm Its also very utilitarian and compact, with a Lot of close to midrange fire power.

  • The background is a Accuracy International in .300 Win Mag. When the dope call is past 900 yards my daily driver (below) is set aside and AI picked up. Don't under estimate my daily driver though, it is good to almost 1200 (field tested mother approved) with a .26 MOA at 100. The FN A5 PBR is one helluva rifle. Running Hornady TAP 168 gr. A-MAX ( red box, not black box arm chair Rambo garbage) with Leo, Mark 4 is about as good as it gets! 173 gr. FMJ Match has got NADA on this round! When long distance calls come around nothing says hello like M-107 (S.L.A.P chambered 82A1) with some Nightforce NXS loving in the oven!

    Yeppers Preppers I paid 21x face for $100 in 90%, but got $101 as a bonus (heck at the price I was happy to begin with).

    The Steyr Maadi ARM is serial number under 1k (less than 3k imported per my reference material) and a great investment as it has the box, Egyptian magazines, bayonet, sling and manual. Finding one is tough enough, one 98% with all the original gear is almost impossible even with deep pockets as they just don't come up for sale much. It seems to me all the Century Arms and JoeKen AKS (Semi AKM) and AK-47's (even AK-74's) are just junk, but I guess there shouldn't be much to expect for a $400 rifle. These Maadi's were built on Russian Tula factory and are the closest you can get to a Russian pre-ban (89 or 94) Avotat K. If I were to buy a new, daily driver it would be a 922r compliant Siaga (Russian) in AK-107 style. I honestly think those will be winners long run.

    Be good my friends- Texas
