Gun procastination?

I had a springfield armory basic 16" AR. Was way too noisy for me. Sold it in 2012 or so. Would still have it if it was a 20 inch. I like guns a touch on the quieter side. Absolutely love a 26" barreled 22lr CZ 452 utlra lux.......... Would be the last gun I owned If I was allowed only 1. I'd just figure out how to harvest deer with a 22lr, or just bow hunt for deer.

That 6.8 spc would be awesome for deer if you wanted to deer hunt with a AR.
 
The upper receiver I have is a thick walled something similar to the one on the right in this photo. I have plenty of AR’s hence the 10 or so years of neglect this build has had so far. I have thought about buying a couple cheap palmetto rifle kits their prices are really tough to beat for a budget build. And I totally agree on the noise level from a 16” barrel but I do still have a couple 16” with collapsible stocks just for truck guns hard to beat the short guns for that. I did buy a few Trump punisher stripped lowers a couple years ago that would be perfect for a couple palmetto budget builds. You guys are a bad influence to a recovering AR builders anonymous member.

Not direcrtly gun procastination, but I need a gun case for my 42" barreled 50 cal flintlock. NY law a few years back requires them to be in locked cases, metal or fireproof plastic as per the law. Gotta love the wisdom from blue state gun laws........

So, I bought 2 cheapie fireproof plastic cases and making it one case. Gun length is 53.5 inches. Just a smidge too long for any reasonably priced gun case. Dont feel like buying a $600 SKS gun case for a $1100 rifle......

Clamping an exacto knife to soldering iron to cut them. Then epoxy and rivet the pieces together .

Have you considered a locking sports tube? There are several Fire and Water proof models that are five and six feed long.
 
Stop with the AR stuff! I have been out of that world for awhile and you guys are going to cost me money! I have a mid-length that I have never done anything with and this got me thinking I need to throw a different upper on it.
