    CHINA IS F###ED

    As Threadcutter pointed out It's not that hard to believe that someone could be so obtuse, we see it daily. If you google Representative Jack Kimble, it comes up as a fake....There isn't a representative named Jack Kimble. It's too easy today to just read something and take it for face...

    Bench setup and workflow help

    You're off to a good start and giving it some forethought.... If it were me, I'd bolt on some bench extensions to the back of your bench that would fill in the gaps around the column and increase the bench surface area... I'd keep any shelving higher up off the bench. Definitely agree with the...

    Bullet jump on 5.56x45 when slammed into battery

    Have you checked to see what the actual bullet jump is from your bullet at load length to the touch point in your throat? In most AR chambers I've found that the jump to the lands is more generous than most think (depends on the bullet and profile). If you have a 50 thou jump to the lands, I...

    I'm not saying it's a bad thing, just that the money hasn't been invested yet, and many stand in line to commit but don't always fully come through. The below was AI generated, but there were commitments ... these were just some plant investments. In the past two years, several major foreign...

    Horse Power, Track Shit, Torque, Cubic Inches, Liters, Run What Ya Brung, Auto or Cycle

    Not all together familiar with the Stromberg carbs, but The SU side draft carbs from the 60's had oil in them to dampen the slides ... you could change oil weights and help regulate how fast they open close (small differences make a lot of difference)..... Wondering if the will in theses are for...

    This is just what they say they are going to invest ... it hasn't been invested yet..... once this news cycle blows on by, they probably won't uphold their full commitments..... just my guess.

    Cleaning JP Adjustable Gas Block?

    Correct - Remove it from the barrel. For me it's not very often it's removed, typically when adjustments freeze or it's not adjusting correctly. The only other time I would do it is a barrel change/swap. Other than that, little reason to clean

    Cleaning JP Adjustable Gas Block?

    I use an ultrasonic cleaner for gas blocks and brakes when they get bad. I put the block in a small glass jar/beaker and use a small amount of solvent inside the beaker.... breaks down all of the carbon pretty quickly. Finish with a quick squirt of brake cleaner and then compressed air.

    EPA deregulation

    You're just spitting out what AI generated for you.... and what you're really referring to is only a level of particulate matter that gets trapped by a filter and then burned off in a regenerative process ... It doesn't really leave the air cleaner. The latest emissions are geared toward a...

    EPA deregulation

    What is it you're stating about current emissions mandates? That cleaner emissions is a good thing or a bad thing? Are you implying that the air that goes into a CARB compliant Diesel is combusted and the emissions coming from the pipe are cleaner than the Air that went through the intake?
