This makes my head explode in anger. Why in the hell are people proposing more gun laws when we blatantly don’t enforce the ones we have now.
I think you probably know this, but the laws proposed are not to quell the criminals, just the law abiding citizens... we can fight back now. They don't want us to be able to fight back.
 


I've seen this happen many times during my career as a lineman. Opening a switch with a high amp load on a high humidity day or night makes an awesome picture. Its not good for the switch!

All of those look like transmission switches. Transmission voltages are usually between 115,000 and 500,000 volts.
 
Gunsmith friend said someone brought him a PSA that would not group. He field-stripped and inspected and was surprised to find a smoothbore.
Just bought a PSA lower the other day and found this....... I also had a pistol upper that key holed. You don’t think to check for rifling when buying a brand new barreled upper. 🤔
