We all kinda knew this...ATF monitoring

…..don’t think that’s a bit extreme of a form of execution? It’s extremely barbaric and repulsive. Just book them a plane ticket to an island somewhere without a runway, or population give them a parachute pocket knife and wave as their thrown out the door.
Our Country hasn’t been taking treason seriously for the past 50-70 years I would say, to the point that the political class sees it as a legitimate way to enrich themselves without consequence.

So no, I don’t see the Brazen bull as extreme. In fact, I want one shaped like an Rhino, and the other shaped like a Jackass.

Park them at the steps of the Capitol building for crowds of people to observe as the convicted traitors’ fire-fueled screams echo out across the mall. Traitors need to understand that there are consequences for betraying America like this, when they were given high positions of trust.

There is no other real way to do it properly. Firing squads and hangings are too quick.

ARs in sub zero temperatures

Does Alexander Arms make that anymore? I looked on their site and all they have is the standard firing pin.
They stopped offering it years ago. Not sure why. It was meant to reduce firing pin lock time/drag inside the bolt.

Yes, I was using Slip2000 EWL in extreme cold temps, but I don’t have exact numbers in front of me.

The only reason I was able to fly with that lubricant was because it wasn’t petroleum-based.

Exactly..smooth brains think it’s just random

What people don’t understand about running a business when cash flow goes to shit..you need to eliminate fixed expenses ASAP and immediately stop hiring.

If the business functioned “yesterday” then we don’t need more people tomorrow. You need to reset and refocus.

So there is an immediate hiring freeze, which goes for anyone in the training pipeline unless they are superheros.

Sounds familiar right..probationary are now let go

Next up you stop all spending budgets and have management sign off on any expenditure from buying pencils to parts. That immediately stops frivolous spending as well as reviewing the mangers who are signing off on expenses…are they capable.

Sounds familiar right..credit cards with 1$ limit

Some babies get tossed with the bath water..just the way it goes. When a mistake is made you rehire or hire new.

The ones who don’t understand this never sat in a C-suite meeting and never had to make decisions that matter for the future of a company more than 100 people..usually those opinions come from the same people who think they know how to build a car better than “Toyota” because there’s a screw that’s hard to get to.
And generally in civil service, my experience was that a probationary employee (first 6 mo) could be fired without cause.

They did that to me as a Paramedic In Training (PIT). But, in this case, it was using the "Bellevue Cocktail" to get them out of their Opioid High.

"WTF YOU DOIN' MAN? I PAID $350.00 FOR THIS POP!!!"
I watched these skels shake just looking at the Narcan filled syringe ...What fun! But those wee the good old days

Suppressors Form 4 wait time

The local small gun shop where I purchased my first 2 suppressors changed ownership
I thought I would support the new owner and ordered a Huxwrx Ventum 762 from him
He did not have it in stock and had to get one in.
It has been over three weeks and he says it is still waiting for ATF approval. (the transfer to I assume)

I did not think a SOT had to wait for approval like we did.
My question here is, do they?

I don't believe he is being dishonest with me but I do not know the rules like I do with my FFL.
I do know of people that have bought cans from him and their wait times seemed on the long side of what I read here but not terrible
I understand there is a learning curve and I think he is coming up to speed on the process

Geisselles new SPR barrel with special gas system

But does the poa/poi change from bipod to bag etc.

The RD15 thread is enlightening

Ok here it is, with this bullshit Mickey Mouse front and rear bag setup the point of impact shifted half inch right, having no front end stability I was having a hell of a time controlling the rifles CANT which ultimately caused a few Flyers.

Hope this helps.

Suppressors Form 4 wait time

Finally got mine certified and submitted today for my Scythe Ti. Had to drive over and do it in person since my dealer never could get the “join session” to work on E-forms certification.
Just a follow up.
Submitted yesterday around 10:20am.
Got the approval today at 1:39pm.
Around 27 hours +/-
Silencer shop individual
SiCo Scythe Ti.

30-06 COAL and CBTO with 178 ELDX

So the two cases measure the same on the headspace comparator, thats not the issue. Measure the diameters. Theres got to be a difference somewhere and assigning a number to it will show you where.

Or to skip the modified case middle man: if your sized brass fits the chamber freely then I suggest scrolling down to the video called finding your lands and see what your chamber itself tells you if the distance to touching the lands.
