You hideous Basturd!

I personally like the part where the judge asked the state if there was any proof that permit to carry holders contribute to gun violence, and the state said no

I think what he was saying was the DC circuit court dismissed the plaintiffs complaint about carrying in the subway because none of them had been "harmed" because they weren't arrested for carrying, one of them would have to become a felon first This of course is a bullshit liberal view but this is what they are trying with the courts. what these courts and liberals have to start getting used to is that the 2A is no longer a second class right. If that same subway system created a rule that forbid blacks from entering you could bet your last dollar that no one would have to be "Harmed" to have it ruled unconstitutional. the bruen decison has lit the fuse of the dismantling of all infringements. one by one.

Finding ammo for 1:7 or 1:8 twist is expensive??? All of my 556 AR’s are 1:7, and they stabilize anything from the light varmint rounds all the way up to 77gr. HTBP rounds. I imagine 1:8 is similar…. I DO shoot M193 and M855 for the most part.

I must say that I am impressed with some of the posters here and their understanding of the legal system. And how they seek out knowledge like the actual transcripts. I believe that if there is any delay in the decision, it will be so the judge can cite his decision well enough to make any attempt to overturn it to fruitless or make the appeals court decision to overturn it to appear be blatantly political rather than grounded in law.

I'm not sure about anyone else but I'm seeing a ton of new non-NJGF related ads now on this site and I have to close them out in order to see the actual forum. Is this some setting that's from my phone or is this something that NJGF subscribed to for revenue?

THE COURT: I do. I think to move things along, I do have some questions. The question I have for you, it seems to me in subpart 24, and this is what I want you to address, is isn't the State turning the presumption of the right to carry on its head? ------ And this, my friends, is the core of the case.

Picked this back up after a long day... "MS. CAI: The reason that the Kansas statute and similar statutes were enacted is that the legislatures at that time correctly recognized that people who are intoxicated or could be intoxicated or go to places to be intoxicated should not have firearms on them. And so we can't, you know, we're not doing an analysis of whether the current statute, Section 15, is narrowly tailored to only apply to people who have already started drinking at the restaurant versus later. That's not what Bruen tells the Court to do. It's whether or not -- THE COURT: So I guess your argument is, is that it is presumed that anyone who goes into an establishment that sells alcohol is going to drink? MS. CAI: No, Your Honor. And that's -- THE COURT: But that's how you'd get there. MS. CAI: No. I don't think that's the logic we're trying to draw. The logic we're trying to draw is historically legislatures have had no problem prohibiting the mixture of alcohol and firearms, period." ------ Slappity, slap, slap!

I can only speak for myself but as a premier member, I never saw a popup ad on this site!

I think that interpretation you quoted is spot-on, but particularly so when viewed through a political lens. I won't get overtly "political/partisan" in this thread (so please, no one else do it either!). Suffice it to say that when ANY politician (of ANY party) aspires to higher office, it would be natural to establish your bona fides on contentious issues that are top of mind to the people most likely to vote for you, and I think that's playing out here... I think our governor was all too happy to force even surprisingly weak legislation (even a layperson could point out some the logical failures of this law, but the learned judge's questions only drive them home more). But what does that matter if the Governor can then leverage the results either way? If the law gets overturned, the campaign language is: "See, I tried to do the right thing. I fought the good fight, but these crazy activist judges went against us. Make me your President, and I promise to appoint better judges and justices... blah, blah, bullshit, blah." If even parts of the law are ultimately upheld, the spin turns into: "See, I'm leading the charge on this issue! Make me your President and I'll continue to WIN for you and we'll expand on this success... blah, blah, bullshit, blah." In that sense, this new law is more a tale of pure political gamesmanship/ambition than it is about ...2A legalities... or safety... or self-defense... or gun crime... or anything else! It doesn't matter to him if the law itself is weak, riddled with holes in logic, and clearly goes against Bruen. It's simply a political means to an ends... being funded with our money (regrettably on both sides of the aisle).

I sent him 1.00 and email comes up Brandon Evans January 7, 2023·Money Sent then filed complaint

Mike, Was this a recent purchase? I would call the credit card company and claim with them if possible. Indicate damaged or vendor won't accept return? Depends on what your cards offer if that's an option. Keep us posted on the outcome.

Agreed. Hard to beat a mid-length gas system with an H2 buffer and mil-spec action spring and receiver extension for smoothness. I’m hearing good things about the A5 receiver extensions as well, but have no esperoence.

Definitely. These days it seems like most vendors will carry 5.56 barrels on most their builds to accommodate both calibers. Prob same as Cheflife's existing two rifles. Wouldn't make sense for him to build a rifle that only chambered for regular .223. Just a thought.

i posted a pic in some thread on here. walmart does indeed have a sign that reads something like "please refrain from openly carrying a firearm" at least the one in somerdale does

Not good business practice to put out questionable blem part then to make people jump through hoops to swap or cover under warranty. It's probably on the manufacturer's side and they also caught in the middle but at the end of the day it's got your name and your reputation on the line. Sometimes as a manufacturer or a company you gotta bite the bullet and do what's right by yer customers. Negative press like this will always follow with the internet now.

There is a slight variation to the case dimensions between 5.56 and .223: As well as the chamber dimensions for each: The Wylde chamber kind of splits the difference IMO - You can shoot .223 and 5.56 in a Wylde or 5.56 chambered gun with no worries. You can probably get away with shooting 5.56 in a .223 chamber on a quality barrel for quite some time , but there have been some documented issues and it is not preferred.

12.7x42 or 50 beowulf as its called is like $ 2.45 - $ 4.00 a round.

We can only hope that the TRO is issued in Koons Vs Reynolds soon. On the request for a TRO on the Siegel vs Platkin case it is to be heard on Monday by judge Karen Williams a Biden appointee. The chances of seeing any relief there are IMO slim.

so an update to anyone that bought one. mine had the cotter pin jammed through, turns out the lines don't align AND the cam path is fucked. I contacted wc and they wanted pics for the refund. I told them, 'you must be joking, it's bullet proof line, you're being inundated with calls regarding these 'blems' and you want pics, pics coming refund my money and you lost a customer' He pulled up my account and saw that I am a buyer of lots of stuff from them and then tried to worm the discussion that I just shut down. I personally find it bad business on such a colossal fuk up. these are not blems, these have QC issues. Given the way the cotter pin was jammed in, no way only 1 person knew about this so it had to be a company move. the cam pin already had a groove cut into it and it's never been cycled by me! the good, the bolt is beautiful

As it should be, it is a premium round with a premium price. Most folks shoot cheap 55gr milsurp, basically range fodder. There is no need to torture a 55gr bullet with excessive stabilization. Rifling turns forward motion into spin, that force takes energy away from velocity and turns it into accuracy robbing heat. If 1:7 was perfect for every 5.56/.223 bullet weight, then the industry would be making only 1:7 bbls. Why not just go with the 1:6.5 that is used with the Valkyrie, it's the same diameter bullet.

M193/M855 are not designed for precision, they are designed to get the job done. I’ve used both on hogs and paper, and they get the job done. 77gr OTM is a much more accurate round in my 1:7 guns, it’s gets the job done ‘mo accurately’. I mostly ‘hunt’ paper and hogs, so the added expense of 77gr OTM isn’t worth the cost, even though I have a ton of it stockpiled.

My 1:8 18'bbl SPR shoots .33 moa with PPU factory 75gr otm ,and just slightly better with my hand loads using Hornady 75gr match. M193 shoots like 2.5 moa. they are both stabilized bullets. M193 shoots just over an inch in my 1:9 16"bbl M4gery. Basically, if 3moa or better with 55gr up to 77gr is the bar, then a 1:7 will be great. If you want to dial in accuracy, you have to match the twist to the bullet weight. Match shooters are obsessed with twist and rifling.

Not that I’m a fan of bump stocks, but this is a great day for 2A freedoms!

I replaced all my mil-spec triggers with the ALG ACT triggers. They are great and made by Geissele. Get the extra springs and pins for the lower. You WILL lose one when it goes flying! Avoid putting the hammer spring in backwards. You will get light primer strikes if you do! You won't be sorry Chef....Just do it!

If you can assemble an IKEA flat pack, you can build an AR pattern MSR. Buy extra springs and detents, or assemble springy parts in a clear plastic bag, so when they go "doyng" (they will) you won't be dead in the water. Having all the fancy tools in an armorer's kit will absolutely make things go smoother, but many of them are not essential. The part that needs the most attention is mounting the barrel, proper torque and head space is essential to keeping all your fingers.

You'll finish it. You are correct, it isn't that difficult. You can always go the 'lite' build route and start with a complete upper (eliminates the need for a couple of specialized tools, and the headspacing should already be correct). Then just build the lower as you wish. If you have questions you'll get plenty of answers here, and YouTube has some great videos as you've already found. I don't doubt that you can find a gunsmith or FFL to finish the build for you, I just doubt that you'll find it necessary.

Adios Bump Stock Ban!: BREAKING: Cargill v. Garland (5th Circuit): En banc Fifth Circuit strikes down the federal bump stock ban, saying it violates the Administrative Procedure Act. "The definition of 'machinegun' as set forth in the National Firearms Act and Gun Control Act does not apply to bump stocks. And if there were any doubt as to this conclusion, we conclude that the statutory definition is ambiguous, at the very least." https://assets.nationbuilder.com/firearmspolicyfoundation/pages/3970/attachments/original/1673045236/Cargill_v_Garland_En_Banc_Opinion.pdf

The Judge can only rule on the sections challenged in the law suit. Fortunately, we also have the Siegel case which challenges much, much more, but will probably take longer to work through the system.

Anyone else slapping their head reading Cai's notes??? Reading this, IMHO, I feel the judge is questioning the law as well, and feels it's wrong. So if that is the case, can she throw out the law, or just the sensitive places part, etc?

Page 28 has Cai getting slapped around pretty good.

Maxed out this weeks "can can" soup order. 40 cans!

I am going to LOAD up on soup. Was at a local Acme supermarket. The LEAST expensive non-Campbells condenses soup was $4 per can. Let's Go Brandon!! Get your order in now before I put mine in!!! Fair warning!

Not finding bump stocks useful and thinking it's acceptable to make them Illegal to own are two different things.

This is precisely how our rights get further eroded. "I support the second amendment, but ..."
