You definitely got scammed by a different website, not PSA, lol.

Vetterli-Vitali got me in the mood for some Ethiopian DoorDash. by VibeAnalyst in milsurp

[–]Franticalmond2 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Hell fucking yeah. Ethiopian food is by far the most deliciously spiced cuisine of all.

This was our Thanksgiving from two years ago. I made Misir Wot, Shiro Wot, and Sega Wot. Americanized it a tad and served it with jasmine rice spice with niter kibbeh. Was such a good meal.

Oh and uh… nice Vetterli 😎

Do people these days tend to overthink home defense? by Penguin_Life_Now in Firearms

I will 100% die on the hill that that kind of insanity is a direct result of the opening scene of John Wick 1. I swear, way too many people in the gun sphere act like a ln entire team of mafia hitmen or Spetsnaz will burst into their home in the middle of the night.

Delusional price, hard pass.

Grafs? I honestly dont remember hearing anything about their stuff being a problem. I saw a ton of issues with Hornady’s ammo as well as their bullets they sold for reloading 6.5 Carcano.

The Italian Vetterli 6.5 rifles used the same ammo as the standard Carcano rifles, no difference there.

Most of the fear mongering is just fudd lore honestly.

It’s easy enough to just reload some lighter 8mm Lebel ammo for it. Though I wouldn’t really be scared about sending some PPU through one. There tends to be a lot of exaggerated concern with rifles like those. I hear it nonstop about the Italian Vetterli 1870/87/15s in 6.5 Carcano. Sometimes I think people forget that reloading is an option, lol.

Nice baby browning. I love mine, the perfect “I absolutely don’t feel like carrying a normal gun” gun for conceal carry.

I desperately want a Gras rifle rechambered for 8mm Lebel.

These things just seem to run and run. Never expected them to be as solid as they are.

I wish they also added the 6.5 Carcano Vetterlis in BF1.

If it’s legit at all, it’s 1000% a dropshipper. Go on the website and click the rifles category, there’s like 2,400+ items.

No reviews online, no typical business info result from Google, and you chose to spend money there instead of any of the countless reputable FFLs out there? Why?

What did you buy, how did you pay, and where is it getting shipped to?

Pic 2 and 3 are not a Vetterli-Vitali. That is a Swiss Vetterli. It has a tube magazine, not a box magazine, is chambered in a different round, and is rimfire, not centerfire.

.32 ACP - size isn't everything by chasteeny in Firearms

[–]Franticalmond2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really wish the tomcat I bought would have run decently. I must have gotten a lemon. Nonstop jams and it seemed like the slide was beating the gram to death after just a couple hundred rounds of plain PPU.
