Consumer item: Something that is ready to use as intended right out of the packaging without any modifications needed to be done.
Before 2016, we ILF archery shooters who wanted to use firearm red dot sights and lasers on ATA drilled and tapped risers had to make our own mounts. Get a section of rail. Cut it to proper length. Then get shelving frames or doorlatch plates, measure/cut. Then fasten together and you got a Pic rail right above the arrow channel for any aiming accessory you want to use. You can either then rattlecan it to match the color of the riser, or if the whole assembly is steel, cold blue it. After the knowhow has circulated around various forums for a while, a few companies decided to make the ATA-Picatinny adaptor a commercially produced item and now you can get them at various locations.

So according to the quoted post,
Ikea is not a consumer store selling consumer items.
Auto Zone, O'Reilly, Napa, and the parts department of dealers are not consumer stores.
This was also posted in the Cracked Spuhr Mount thread where the post is from.

Is this what it looks like when old, fat, angry men fight?
Bunch of hot air and a slap fight between 5th grade girls?

Probably meWho you callin’ fat, Bucko ?
Can we add in the “you have to be smarter than a engineer , use half the recommend scope ring torque “. Argument from deathbeforedismountdick
45 pound pounds are a fuck load. That’s basically 45 squared. Only thing more would be 45 bam bams.
“45 Pound Pounds” ?
Sounds like a fuckton……..
Is that metric?
When I first read that thread, I thought he typo'd and meant "consumable" item, an item meant to wear out and be replaced, which I guess kind of fits spuhr mounts from what I read about em'. But apparently that isn't the case.
Not sure if half the recommended torque would be enough to hold the scope still, but I just had a top ring on a scope mount crack (not a Spuhr), and I wonder if there's something that everybody, including the engineers, is missing. Maybe a closer look at whether 7075 is the best material, or the grain direction of the material plays a roll in this mount cracking phenomena, or maybe it's an external factor coming into play like shock from recoil. Assuming the fix-it stick I use hasn't lost it's calibration, I stayed within spec and still had one crack. Weird.

It has to be. Shit-ton is what we use.
Geez you guys are dumb...a fuckton is a person who lives in fucksville.
Cracked Sphur Mount
Anyone else ever experience a Sphur mount cracking? I have one on another rifle no issues, This is on an LMT MARS in 6.5

Had some gems. Burtg started this one to keep that one mostly civil causing it to get deleted. It's still in Armory.
Edited
Changed it. Mostly civil. It's the same thing as mostly peaceful right?
I only had to read the first page. YikesCracked Sphur Mount

Burt Gummer, quit playing with retards, they have a way of dragging you down to their level. Before you know it, you stop eating pussy and start sucking dick. Besides, nobody is smater, with more wisdom that a coyote hunter.
I havent even read the thread, but when I see that guy quoted, I know the content is just above Bigfatcock's choice in women!

Always use source materials. On this site, it’s so much funnier when that happens
We’re mocking the metric system.
Keep up…
(Actually, I prefer the metric system - but let’s not get off topic.)
Did that develop after page 1? I didn’t get that vibe initially
I've worked on German cars and train components my whole career so I prefer it as well
When I agree with Bullfrog (and I 100% approve of his comment), you should think about that. That dude is fucking autoignore.
Why DeathBeforeDickFuck is allowed to shit in technical forums is beyond me (its like the one rule around here). Yes he is easy to put on ignore, problem being if one is newer or not a regular, he looks legit. And as someone who regularly shits and pisses all over the bear pit and bitches and moans about dumbfucks:
"He makes us ALL look bad"
His continued allowance on the hide baffles me greatly. It is one of life's true great mysteries. I suspect he has dirt on Frank. Its the only explanation of why he is ever allowed back.
Otherwise "people are stupid"
Could have been written about a number of hide members, more than one in this thread…
He adds nothing to the forum, is nearly always an ass in technical forums, and is frequently WRONG. He's not a good person to have around. Sometime people just need to be booted.
I can be an ass, don't add much, but I shut my mouth in the tech area and try to add things respectfully (up there) when I can.
I'd be willing to accept a permaban if it got him too. Straight up. Ban us both. Guy is a cancer among cancers.
Do a quick search for "dbd".
These are just some. Read them in their entirety and then report back.
Muzzle Brakes poor form at the range?
So I was at an outdoor range today zeroing a new scope... I have a 7RM 26" heavy barrel with an APA Little Bastard brake on it. The people on either side of me got quite upset and some guy's wife said "WHAT IS THAT???" in that super bitchy tone of voice. They complained to the RSO and asked if I...

What does 6.5 do over 7.62?
Well I'm mad and intrigued at the same time. I'm a die hard 308cal guy and had all intentions of dying with that caliber of old age. But on here you guys kept and kept pushing me towards 6.5 Creedmoor so I at least looked into why I shouldn't do it. Less recoil, less powder usage, bullets are...
