    Disinformation Governance Board

    And nobody saw this coming? That bitch from Texas that wears matching bedazzled cowboy hats and vests in gaudy bright colors tried to make it illegal to criticize politicians several years back. Sheila Jackson? And DA after DA has claimed how much of a problem and threat to national security...

    Trigger Pins Walk Out

    I have seen some beat to shit rifles with no finish and no bore left that don't have this problem... None of my rifles have this problem. I don't use KNS shit and Geissele will tell you not as well. Never needed adjustable gas blocks or any of the bandaids these companies come up with. I do...

    Army to buy 107,000 Sig m5 rifles, 13,000 Sig m250 LMG, total $4.7 billion contract

    So you guys are aware that these rifles won't be issued in bulk to just every joe in the army right? The first batch goes to SFG, the second batch to the Ranger batt's, then the infantry components of SBCT's, finally to "other" infantry units. So they're just for the infantry. Everyone else...

    High end truck gun

    Shit... I bet that goddamn thing rocks that box back and forth! Seriously though, I could use something to mount mine on still. As for "truck gun" I just throw a SCAR16 or whatever M4 I happen to have out at the time behind the seat.

    Shooting and theft at GA gun range

    Yeah, most do. And fuck 'em. I don't put my life in the hands of some drivel written up by some asshole whose ass isn't on the line. If I carry in public, you can bet your sweet ass I carry ANYWHERE firearms are out in the open! And if I can be trusted to carry open or concealed in a damn...

    THis would be great

    1. It's because you were issued ear plugs, so you should have worn them (their words, not mine). 2. Tinnitus isn't detectable so it's an automatic 10%, just gotta request it (though that's changing and they want some kind of proof or some shit now? --how do you prove something that can't...

    Nobody is better than Joe Biden

    A mass shooting happens in CA, who already has the worst gun laws in the US, and before he knows who, how many, what weapon was used, why they did it, etc., already calling for more goddamn bans. If "ban = freedom" then maybe he really is the man for the job. I can't fucking tell anymore, all...

    The 1.5T, 2700 page Omnibus bill that just passed included Gun Control

    At the end of the day they all want the same thing: your obedience and money. So much shit is illegal in this "free" country I can't even keep up with it all anymore. What we need is a reboot, just start over with the original amendments and throw the rest in the trash, along with political...

    Maggie’s The Official Beer Snob Thread

    Haven't been able to drink a long time, it messes with my stomach and nerves now, interferes with meds... Sucks. Getting old sucks in general. I used to brew prior to the divorce though, and my buddy and I still have a complete all grain 15gal. "kit" upstairs. All sorts of extras including a...

    Biden to ban Russian oil. Get ready for $10.00 gas.

    That was a great documentary.

    Thoughts on a 3.5-18 Optic for a Rimfire

    I don't like lots of magnification in general, and don't shoot competitions. That said, I like the 1-4x Viper PST I have on an integrally suppressed Kidd 10.22 and find it sufficient for what I do. However, if you do like lots of mag and shoot competitions with one, want FFP, I'd say give the...

    Protecting a map question ?

    Alcohol based Stadtler map markers, the correction pen and acetate overlays. I like to make crosses in the four corners of the acetates so they line up with the lines on the map for accuracy. Fold the map (or ideally cut out the portion you need and laminate it) and keep it in a ziploc bag...

    The "New" Barrett MRAD Thread!!!!!!

    So I've been dealing with health issues, etc., and haven't made any firearm related purchases in about a year, saving up for home repairs and have a few sticks I haven't even fired yet, but finally got my MRAD/Mk22 setup handled. Still haven't been able to take it out to shoot, haven't been...

    USMC sniper handbook

    Thanks man, trying to reintegrate as a contributing member of the gang again! I won't lie, it has been a hard year though.

    Does anyone else have a somewhat oddball firearm that may not make a lot of sense but they wouldn't give up?

    I SBR'd a 10/22 with a 4" titanium barrel and chopped a Butler Creek folding stock to fit it, modified the back with helicoil so I could insert a set screw to keep it nice and solid... I think Ruger makes something similar to it now but as a handgun? Charger maybe? Completely useless. But it...

    USMC sniper handbook

    Oh thanks guys, that really means a lot to me, and yeah, I haven't been around much lately... Haven't been on the computer at all really. Been dealing with a bunch of problems at home (paid for a new roof, STILL have leaks, and it's been impossible to find anyone willing to do the damn work...

    Rittenhouse Trial

    Dude... Just fucking checkmate. I'm so sick of that race baiting bullshit too.

    .50 BMG Optics

    It is nice, isn't it? 7-35x would be ideal IMO. Have a USO 5-25x on an HTI with an Elite Iron suppressor and an Elite brake. The M2HB is more fun with a 6x ACOG but BMG is just expensive, period. Much better long range options that will cost less in the long run and see more use.

    Gunsmithing Long Rifles Inc.

    Yeah I'm aware of that, but couldn't leave a message or anything. I got ahold of him today. I'm in the same boat, why I haven't been on here in a couple months myself. Trust me, I know what it's like going through the wringer and I only wish him the best in that regard.

    Gunsmithing Long Rifles Inc.

    Thanks, I've sent him a PM, maybe he's not checking them? All his phone mailboxes are full and no answer I just need him to contact me on an urgent matter. Haven't been able to reach him any other way but I know he's frequenting this forum so I figured I'd try flagging his attention this way.
