  1. what I need are quality spare bolts. closest I have seen are MPI but not HPT carpenter 158 bolts with NiB plating.
  2. Doh , i missed mentally processing that seeing the pictures. I'll go with GRIZs answer then. Let me guess, it was stuck somewhere around where one of the several cuts are made to the barrel for sights, magazine attachement, barrel band, etc. are located.

    Looking at it I will guess range pickup brass that had oxidation there where the zinc leached out and left you with a porous copper spot. It's the primary reason I don't like wet tumbling with ss media and lemishine. It hiss those funky orange black spots.
  4. I know the open gun crowd had some issues with mg bullets several years back, even if they didn't. Cleaning up after a match, you'd find the jackets for mg hollow points mid range when ever we had a long range classifier in the 50 yard pit. Opened up kind of like little brass versions of shotgun wads. Their jackets are very springy brass that is pretty hard and it can cause issues.
  5. Read the article. The cop thought he could speak spanish sufficiently well, and failed at it, thus providing something that does not equate to one's miranda rights and could be viewed as implying that one might have legal obligations they do not.
  6. Nah, it just mostly is air. It looks like a bunch of miniature washers.
  7. RCBS is cheaper and works pretty much the exact same way but different enough to not get sued. I like it for the price, the fact it is harder to totally mess up your brass on it (dillon gives you way more leverage than you need), and that you don't need much bench dept to mount it. I have my trimmer and swaged mounted on wood which I swap out to the same spot on my bench that has two threaded posts and thumb screws to secure it. The dillon would require I clear the bench to the side or use up a lot of depth.
  8. They offered $10k for his capture and assured they would see justice is served. Whatever that means. You can interpret it how you want, but the reality is they at best broke the law for soliciting a felony. In several states it is 5 years maximum. It's hard to say they even did that as they did not offer money to a specific person for a particularly specific act. One just assumes that capture implies taking possession of another person bodily against their will, which would be kidnapping. It could just be restraining them in place, which would be false arrest, which is a pretty low grade felony at best most places. DEpending on how the state laws are written, you could be down to about a year maximum prison time for a win on this case. Then again in some places, all they have to do is issue some kind of public notice saying we shouldn't have done that before a corpse shows up, and they could be in possession of a defense. It wouldn't require holder, it would require a DA or AG to want to go through with it, and it is long odds on winning.
  9. Following your logic, if he agreed with these bills, why wouldn't he have signed them already? Pocket approval isn't going to save his bacon with pro 2a people, nor is it going to win him endorsements from antis. However, waiting allows him to stir up the sh!7 as little as possible for whatever he does. I believe that is all that the silence tells us. However he plans to piss people off, he wants to do it once and get busy with burying under campaign rhetoric.
  10. This would be because of a couple of very important characteristics of alcohol: It increases the exhibition of punishment suppressed behavior, and it induces state dependent learning. That means that behaviors you only avoid due to the threat of social sanctions tend to increase and that behaviors you had to learn rather than have intuited become severely hampered.
  11. Got it good on stage 5. Then again on stage 1.
  12. I haven't used the dueck ones, but I have tried out the JP short range tactical sight on other people's guns, and watched a butt load of people buy them and then dump them. I'll start off by saying the dueck style approach is better than the short auxiliary rails with pistol like sights a few manufacturers came out with, which is what the JP rail is (they now have a set of offsets in the dueck style). There are several reasons for this. 1) while a pistol style sight at arms length is usable in theory, you either need a full 90 degree hold for a side rail mount, or you need something to get you to .45 degrees, so either a rail or rail mounts. Odds are regardless, you wind up with a low sight offset, which sounds good until you realize getting behind the sight like you would on a pistol is nearly impossible across a wide range of gear and body types. I have a big melon, and I was always looking down at it more than being right behind it. The dueck setup with a2 style heights avoids a lot of this. 2) Sight radius. The sight radius on the dueck style is longer. longer is better in terms of accuracy. 3) adjustability. You introduce a host of problems with offset sights like that, without a good deal of adjustability, you are maximally susceptible to them. What the general problems are with the concept: 1) For close up, they are not faster or more accurate than sighting down the barrel/handguard with yoru gun turned .45 degrees. At least on human sized targets. 2) They are almost never truly concentric to the bore of the gun. If you have a monolithic top rail, this is seriously reduced, but the mounting methods for picatinny rails are such that you probably can't eliminate it 100%. 3) Cant. The gun is not ergonomically set up to operate in that position. you will seldom flip over and eliminate canting 100%. This doesn't really matter up close. but.. 4) IF they aren't for up close, you get to revisit 2 and 3. which means that you can dial out the mildly off axis issues for a specific range. for the canting issue, you ahve to practice the snot out of it, and start out doing that being good enough to isolate issues to canting. 5) Smashing and snagging. They will take abuse. They better be up to it and stay adjsuted where they were put. 6) price. What they excel at totally awesomely: 1) Chilly and humid with a mounted optic and without a hard wind. Your optic will fog from the gasses your AR puts out. co-witnessed irons do you jack unless you unmount the optic. offset sights are immediately accessible with a fogged up optic. They are a trade off. I can't say if they are worth it or not, but definitely consider them in the context of their intended use.
  13. Oh and for the guys who said that was going to hurt. Doesn't really hurt, but it bruised up nicely. Just started getting some good color this morning.
  14. Yes <16" needs to have a long enough muzzle device permanently attached according to batfe rules or it is an sbr.
  15. It apparently optic specific. Holographic sights like the eotech HAVE to have polarizer, and polarized sunglasses all ahve the same orientation of the polarization. Eotech tries to make the interference minimal, although i suspect you can still get some at wacky angles. The bushnell versions of the holosight had issues. Some red dots come with a polarizing element to improve contrast. HEck some apparantly came with what amounts to a circular polarizing filter on the front so you could reduce light to your liking. So it does vary.
  16. +10000 at least. Possibly more.
  17. Dues are unlikely to increase. But like I said. If they raised the capital contribution fee, it would indicate a one time assessment is coming to the membership. If they follow the rules.
  18. Your FFL is a moron. New FFL. Ask him if he sells any semi automatic handguns. AS they can all take various length magazines and could theoretically take more than 15 rounds.
  19. Only first degree burns? Either there wasn't much gas, to the kid kept his head about him and did the right thing really fast.
  20. probably more like rotten icloud or rotten exchange server or rotten gmail or rotten itunes. It is likely fixable, but yes, such behavior can easily be induced when you set up things so that you phone is set to not win arguments about what set of data is correct when you sync contacts and expect the phone to win in actual use. This is not a problem that just the iphone has.
  21. They seem to be running out of economic policy to avoid issues. The truth of your statement will come down to how married they are to Keynesian economic theory, how correct that theory is, and if they decide to swerve at the last minute, how fast they can come up with a new idea. All signs point to reality parting ways with the predicted behavior of the Keynesian model even after having applied copious quantities of printed money in the right places. They appear to be pulling back. Are they clever enough to have a new plan.
  22. distal joint is a bad habit. For most shooters on most guns it will cause you issues that you can mask to an extent, but it causes issues. however, for certain ergonomic situations it is the best woraround for a gun that doesn't actually fit you well. Traditionally, it is the pad of the distal phalange of the index finger, preferably near the center. For me, the best spot is left side of the trigger lines up with the centerline of the pad. But I have big hands and long fingers. The actual general case is that you want the part of the finger that can actuate the trigger with the minimum camming action for the length of trigger travel of that gun held in your hand in the manner that produces a good sight picture wiht a natural point of aim.
  23. Put in blind pin, cover with a spot weld. Pinned and welded. Welding around the perimeter covering the right percentage is another form of BATFE accepted permanent attachment. No pin needed. As is very high temp silver solder (1100 degerees IIRC). also no pin needed.

    I didn't see you said the MBUIS worked like the dot. That would implicate the carry handle. It looks like it might sit very slightly diagonally, but if my brain is doing the math right, that should only mean you might not get movement proportional to clicks and your left vs right adjustment won't be even by a teeny bit. It's also not clear if the a2 sight is centered in the carry handle casting. I recall some potential issue with a2 rear sight installs affecting zero, but I can't remember what it is for the life of me. I avoid the a2 rear setup.
