Shipped to your FFL from my FFL

Condition:

Overall the rifle is in excellent condition. I've been able to repeatedly shoot at 1000-1150 yards with 147gr ELD-Ms without issue. (It also loves 140s, 142s, 144s, etc.)

There is some minor wear marks on the chassis here and there. The only ACTUAL marks are on the NV Bridge where the Elite Iron bipod took off two small circles of cerakote on the rail.

Trades:

Mostly, I'm looking for a thermal weapon sight, preferably a clip-on.

Note:

The Vision Chassis is insanely adjustable... the rifle will fit everyone without issue. Well, maybe not @Lowlight! ;)

It has 527 rounds on it and the bore is flawless.

Liberals nearly 600% more likely to have mental health issues than Conservatives.

I have a longtime acquaintance who is a “genetic psychology” professor at one of the most prestigious universities in the world. We were chatting about various things (prompted by the inauguration, and I’m sure you can guess his personal persuation on that subject) when he went into that they recently concluded a long-term study that included political identity/affiliation, sexual orientation, gender identity, etc amongst other criteria in the study that affects mental health.

Now comes the FUN part! The “University” is REFUSING to officially publish the results of the study because it literally TRIGGERED the entire staff, students involved (all postgrads), and they are “justifiably concerned that the current administration and Far-Right will weaponize their study for propaganda purposes against marginalized groups…”

The salient findings (none of which are the least bit surprising):

Liberals / Progressives / Socialists / Communists are 600% / 6 TIMES more likely to suffer “significant, chronic or non-trivial mental health issues requiring long term medical intervention” than Conservatives / Capitalists.

It only gets worse from there.

Atheists are over 400% more likely to commit suicide / suffer mental health issues requiring treatment than non-Atheists.

Homosexuals are over 700% more likely than heterosexuals.

The newfound Woke Religion of “Transgenderism” is where the rubber really meets the road. Those suffering from the mental health disorder of “Trans-anything” are 1400% — 14 TIMES — more likely to not only require significant mental health treatment, but they have an alarming tendency to have violent physical outbursts against themselves or others and are potentially more likely to engage in violence against perceived enemies.

They’re burying the WHOLE thing. Supposedly the study was partially funded by a CDC grant.

Custom Action Weights

Looking to put together a new western hunting rifle and I’m trying to save a little weight over some of my current rifles. Primarily looking at the anTi X and Nanook, but open to other options. If you have experience with those or any other lightweight option I’d love to hear your opinions.

What I’m struggling to do is compare the weight to my other actions (I have 4 built of Zermatt Origins) and there seems to be a lot of variance on listed weights for the Origin. I see it listed at 28oz on some sites, 31oz on others, I even saw it listed at 50oz on one website which doesn’t seem right. The only thing I can think of is maybe some of those weights are without the rail and lug and other weights include those. If anyone could give me their own measured weight including the rail and lug I’d really appreciate it.

I know this isn’t terribly important because I’m saving weight either way, I’m just trying to get a comparison to see how much weight I’ll save vs the money invested into a completely new rifle. I just see the listed weight for a “lightweight” action like the NBK being heavier than the chunky Origin and it just doesn’t add up in my head.

Here’s what I’m thinking for the build as of right now.
-Lightweight LA action
-20-22” 7PRC carbon barrel, probably Bartlein or Proof
-MDT HNT26 folder or XLR Element Mg
-Leupold VX5 3-15x

Any recommendations for other parts to shave a little weight or personal endorsement of the things I listed are appreciated.

Question about carbine length vs mid length

Assume all else the same - you have 2 uppers, one is carbine length gas system, one is mid length, 16 inch barrels in 5.56.

If you wanted to use one on a close quarters AR build with a red dot, and one on more of a medium distance range toy with an LPVO, would you have any preference as to which rifle got which upper? Either one perform any better for longer distances vs close quarters?

Ar 300 blackout

Hi to all , nice to be welcomed here. I love things that go boom accurately and I have my.own machine shop. I try to build one or two rifles or pistols each winter blues season, accurate ones especially. Just completed an ar in 300 hammer and I love it. I also have a 16.5 inch barrel for it in 300 blackout. So now the blackout barrel is a bit redundant. I also built a pistol ar in 7.62x39 10 inch barrel and to make matters worse, I live in NY where suppressors are illegal. (Yes my ar pistol is on my pistol permit). So now I am contemplating what to do with the 300 blackout barrel. I thought of going subsonic only, maybe even with some 250 grain hardcast lead, (gas port plugging?). But with no suppressor, is there any noise advantage? I could cut it down to 8 or 10 inches and recrown, and use it on my pistol platform. I have always dreamed of port drilling a 16 inch barrel starting at the 8 /10 inch mark a series of 1/8 inch holes spaced a half inch apart out to the muzzle say 16 holes to progressively relief the gas and subsequent noise....hmmm, would it do anything to the noise?. I posted this as i would love to hear comments and suggestions, including should I sell it ? Thanks

Loading magazines with out smearing bullet lube?

I’ve got fat fingers and whenever I load my Center-X ammo, I always end up smearing the lube from the bullet onto the brass. I have to think that this leads to variation and maybe dirty chambers as the lube builds up.

Anyone have a way to load rounds into CZ45X mags or Voodo mags with out having to finger bang them and get all lubed up?

SOLD Sold

Stocked up on these anticipating a 22 ARC build but decided to head a different direction.

All the same lot, will only sell as packs of 5 boxes of 100, quantity 500. I won’t separately sell a couple of boxes. There are 3 —> 2 packs left of 5 boxes… total quantity 1500 -> 1000 left (2 sold).

For each additional pack of 500 you buy, take $5 off.

Each pack of 500 is $150 shipped and insured! I will likely end up separating the sleeve FYI to ship as the dimensions of the sealed packs are unconventional for most boxes.

Thanks!

Far Left will do Anything to delay the inevitable...


Republicans allowed the left to have their luggage-stealing, transvestite, fudge-packing leftist, criminal cabinet and agency heads...

But when it comes to a Republican nominees... it's delay, delay, delay... obfuscate, trash the nominees... anything. And in the case of Kash Patel.... make damn sure he can't start working for as long as possible to allow the shredding and cover-ups more time to succeed.

How many servers being wiped? How many promotions being handed out and transfers to keep shitbags 'hidden.; How much evidence of criminal behavior inside the DoJ and FBI is being destroyed or hidden before the housecleaning can begin.

It's been tradition to let a President have his cabinet. But not when it comes to the left. Note that all Biden's pardons were also 'justified and fine' but Trump's J-6 pardons are a travesty and a threat to our nation and they are going to be brownshirts and his footsoldiers... when that's exactly what ANTIFA and the Black Block and the BLM criminals have been for the left...

Well, nothing new here. Just wanted to rant this morning.

Can't wait for Patel to go medieval on the Swamp's main enforcement tool.
