DST coming today

When I was working 24 hour shifts in the ER, I saw no need for DST, since one day was like the rest, or I was sleeping. So, Instead of Leaping forward and Falling back, I just kept leaping forward, every-whenever-it-happened. So now I am living 2 years in advance of everyone else. Living in the future is amazing. But no flying cars yet.
Is there still pussy in the future???

I think the sd2 is a nice looking knife. I'll have to order one. Thanks.

If you are not familiar with Daniel Winkler take a few minutes to look him up, he & his knives are legit. Not to take anything from Josh Smith of MKC, I am sure Josh is equally as accomplished (he has to be to become a master blade smith at 19). I haven’t owned any MKC knives, I never liked the tip design until they came out with the Jackstone & Stoned Goat. I love the Winkler Huntsman, it is an excellent all around design and feels great in hand.

DST coming today

The only sane option is to “spring forward” M-F and “fall back” Sa-Su.

It will really only inconvenience the curmudgeons and Luddites that can’t figure out how to set their clocks anyway. This is the only reason it’s kept around, so preserving the win there. Everyone else is using IPhones that automatically set themselves, and won’t know the difference.

And, for those that “aren’t morning people,” it’s an extra hour of sleep every Saturday morning.

Iron Bridge Armory (IBA)XM3 build not clone correct

I got an email back from them saying they told me it could not be removed. But I saved our entire email chain where it says no problem we can get it removed it was their fault and no problem it would be gone when I received it back.

I want money back. I did not receive what was agreed upon. I am so tired of companies thinking that they can do whatever they want and not be responsible . Anyone think I’m out of line?

I’m done complaining for now. Sorry had to vent and wanted to make everyone aware thinking of building an XM3 clone to go elsewhere. There is several trusted companies here on the hide.

Oh and sorry @onetopgun i was in a real pissed of mood earlier did not mean to take it out on you.
I don’t think you are out of line. When a guy says “clone correct” and is paying thousands…it goddamn better be clone correct down to the tiniest of details!! If the shop can’t offer that and/or guarantee that the people hired to do the work also understand what that means…they should not offer or state they can build clone correct. They should say “xm3-ish” or “xm3 - inspired”…or “I’mma do my best but I’m a machinist not a gunsmith”. I hate hunting down parts, doing research, being as clear as possible in a build sheet and phone call waiting two years only to have some sloppy shit returned. I’m tired of hearing the “ we can’t please you” ….bullshit! Shops charge a premium, you wait forever and when shit is wrong you get the “wow this guys super picky and weird”. NO SHIT I’m both….that is the VERY customer base these shops serve…we are totally insane to pay $5k for a rifle, but guess what, WE DO and there are thousands of us…it’s called a “niche market”….so if your going to get into the business you’d better be ready to deliver as advertised…there are a dozen shops who can spin a premium barrel on an impact or similar action—-drop in a chassis or chassis stock and in less than 1 month deliver a tack driver….the clone game is completely different….a clone correct customer is seeking a very very specific detail rich end product…because we ARE weird and picky and eccentric and broken…fuck-off, here’s $5k build me my clone so I can top it off with a $3k optic and go lose myself for a couple hours at a time a few times a month doing something that has brought me joy since age 10…no, I’m not talking about jerking it to the lingerie section of the Sears catalog….Im talking shooting my rifle!!
BTW… I’ve had similar experiences with two reputable builders. One you already mentioned….barrel fluted 3 more than I asked for. Sent a flat top stock no recoil
Pad with instructions to cut to 13.5 LOP. The damn stock was 15-3/4” long as a flat top. The shop didn’t cut to LOP and now I got a rifle with more flutes than a high-school marching band with an LOP better suited for Rob Gronkowski …and it Took nearly two years!!!!

Department of Education.. buh bye!!!

none of the resistance to getting rid of DOE has anything to do with teaching or education at all. It's ALL about the teachers union. Teachers union is what has destroyed so much, and what rules all education policy and programs. Directly or indirectly, it's the teachers union, which is a massive funding arm of the democrats with our tax dollars. Just like the insane and malicious closing of schools and "distance learning".... all because of teachers union.
"The teachers union." 🤣🤣🤣 There are many diffrent teachers unions. BTW.

The problem is all the teachers are women. 🤔🤔🤔 Going back less than 120 years, weren't all teachers required to be women? Of course back then people didn't expect schools to raise their children so......

Can It Be Fixed? Buffalowinter???

It’s transferable and can easily be fixed. No SOT… it is straight up class III.

Essentially, you are buying a number and a stamp. And the carte Blanche to build it to any condition you want.

Bet that goes for $15k or more. Because fixing it is dirt cheap. And rebuilt M-16’s are spendy… $25k or more.

But yes, this can be fixed.
