Yeah I bet if I was a drug dealer I would have had them just given to me. Oh wait they went through an FFL didn't they? Stopped them didn't it? Very Very good point firefighter.

It is just MHO but I think that any and all of those involved with that scandal should be charged as felons, convicted, lose their right to keep and bear arms and sit in prison for a LOOOONG time with a few exceptions....Holder, Napalitano, Clinton and Obama should be tried for treason. That's what you get when you go out of your way to undermine the 2nd ammendment so you can have it removed through the Supreme Court order.

That and all of them should support Brian Terry's family for the rest of their lives and I don't mean us, the government but these people personally from their own fortunes. College for his kids included. But then again I would guess they don't have any money because they're part of the 99%. Oh and they need to apologize to his family.

I don't disagree with you fellows, but lets lay off the politics, and get back to guns. This sort of thing quickly gets out of hand.

For what it's worth, J&G finally came through via FED-EX and my Steyr M95 came yesterday. I already had 2 clips, and I got an additional 20 rounds of ammunition, but I think this will be more of a collector than a shooter. Graf's has brass at $64.00 per 20 and Dies are around $140.00 Surplus ammunition is available but no where near as available as most Comm-Bloc stuff and from everything I've read these little beasts kick. I'd just as soon shoot my M44 if I want noise and a shove. (especially at 7.62x54R prices)

Good to hear and you got it at the right time. The price has gone back up to $139.95. I hope you got in on the sale. You know there's ammo available for that a lot less than $64 a box of 20. Look here, http://gun-deals.com/ammo.php?caliber=8x56R+Steyr it's brass cased boxer primed ammo and a third of that.

Lee makes a bullet mold for this round. If dies cost that much though it might be a while before reloading would be worthwhile.

You can get hornady ammo for it for around $28 and the dies are not too bad for lee dies. I shoot mine alot and love it.
I just looked at midway and the dies are $28 for lee
