  1. Problem is those Dummy Rounds are shorter than a loaded AA round. While the difference seems small when you multiply it time 6 shells the difference is almost 1/2" ( 0.074 * 6 = 0.444" ) This is about the total thickness of the coils Deuce removed from the mag tube spring in his other video. I'm betting you cannot get 6 factory AA rounds in your 87. Another thing to consider is that loaded AA rounds are slightly shorter than a loaded STS round. The difference is about the same as the difference between your dummy rounds and the factory AAs
  2. Nope they used to have a thinner package but still those annoying tabs. You weren’t mistaken…………. this time.
  3. Sorry for the delay. I’ll take $50.00 shipping including.
  4. Way older than you think.
  5. Available for backorder. Get it while its hot
  6. Those morons are too busy erasing history not learning from it. I'm also betting they never played Risk
  7. Found this on the internet. Pretty much sums it up. The historical answer: Because it never turns out well, Just ask Napoleon, Hitler, Alexander the Great, the Japanese, the Russians, etc. The "Risk" answer: Because it's got too many territories to take and hold in one turn and too many borders to defend once you take it. The real answer: Asia is a really big continent with really big countries that are filled with a lot of people, a lot of mountains, a lot of forests, and a lot of snow. It's just hard to move men, armor, and supplies easily through such terrain. If one tried to invade Asia by going through the Middle East and into Central Asia, they'd hit no less than six different mountain ranges including the Hindu Kush, the Himalayas and the Pamir Mountains; essentially, you'd run into a wall of mountains which would make it really hard to advance. If one tried to invade Asia in the north, through Russia, they'd hit the Ural Mountains and would eventually be forced to fight in a whole bunch of snow, something most armies aren't all that well-trained to do. If you approached from the East, via the sea, you'd run into all the problems of an amphibious landing and assault approach. That being said, even if you managed to get around the problem of moving your men and their supplies, you'd better have a pretty large army to hold on to any parts you can take because Asia is pretty big place; to put it in perspective, the US was stretched somewhat thin trying to hold two countries, both of which could fit inside Mongolia.
  8. Seems the Ancient Egyptians are to blame. Why is a minute divided into 60 seconds, an hour into 60 minutes, yet there are only 24 hours in a day?
  9. DO NOT fill the void with lube it will contaminate the powder
  10. The tiny bit of airspace caused by a hollow base bullet is so insignificant that it isn't worth thinking about much less mentioning.
