If you want to see the tents, campmor can't be beat. There are a handful of items I'll commute there to shop for, a tent is one.

Oh please, you need much less real estate to grow a personal supply of weed than you do a personal supply of tomatoes. And it'll happily grow indoors as well. So you are right, but it isn't even remotely as limited as growing your own tomatoes.

I'm not. Several vendors in the past have gotten screwed by having their accounts frozen by the credit card processor or their bank followed up with BS arguments about it being firearms related and them not wanting the legal liability of being involved in the money chain. Think less personal injury, and more getting hit with RICO for being the money man for organized arms trafficking. Which is BS practically, because it is legal, and morally because if your check is big enough, they'll gladly get involved in money laundering for organized crime (looks at HSBC and the near total lack of punishment for that). For day to day retail sales, that risk is probably manageable for a lot of businesses. For a company making big raw materials orders, and committing to a lot of work at a job shop based on a promise to buy in a panic market, you take the chance of being out of pocket for the materials AND not getting your money, AND having to pay lawyers if the above happens. Even without it, the risk of chargebacks because tactical timmy changed his mind after winning a gunbroker auction at an absurd price and now can't afford it is pretty significant to a smaller shop. Especially BCGs. They are in VERY short supply, and I guarantee you multiple entities are trying to rectify that at the moment. At this point in time you take chances with everything. I have a feeling that once the smoke clears, if you can still own ARs, there will be a whole lot of new, apocryphal dogma about which BCGs are awesome and which are junk based on what's going on right now.

No. Dark hair, overly concerned with fashion, possibly younger, but definitely better looking with more TV appeal.

Yes, they will TRY to use anything against you. You can either provide something that helps them do that and makes the message resonate with fence sitters, or you can try to make it look as forced and stretching the point as possible. You don't have to be rude to have the same message, you can even say some pretty extreme stuff without sounding like a frothing at the mouth loon. Case in point, you can say "if you pass this law, the cops better watch out or they'll get shot!" or you can say "Do you really think that creating a situation where any interaction with the police can be good for 15-25 years in the can based on some book keeping and random definitions? Especially when you have established already that any encounter with the police will be a game of he said she said with the cop being believed most of the time regardless? Do you really want any random traffic stop to pose the same risk of incarceration for paperwork as for killing someone? Do you think the relationship between the public and police will be LESS adversarial when every encounter means that the rest of your life is done for if the cop decides to jack you up?" One is a threat that fits nicely into a sound bite. The other is asking why they want to pick a fight with everyone where you are stuck quoting most of it or it won't seem very inflammatory. If you do quote most or all of it, well the whole context gets in. Nobody warms emotionally to a narrative where the bad guy doesn't show up. Don't play the bad guy, it's not in your best interest. IF you really are the bad ass who will shoot them in the face, then I suggest you keep that to yourself and enjoy the element of surprise. In the mean time, don't go screwing up the work of people who are engaging their brains while trying to avoid it coming to that. If you must shout something badmouthing someone, be articulate and vociferous about the bad stuff the government is doing to us and continues to do and how this is just yet one more of a boatload of recent examples. If you aren't getting what I am saying, try going through your day doing the things you need to, but start every interaction with people by saying "F-you you a-hole," and see how your day goes.

She had her big girl pants on. Everything she did was calculated. She entered late, and was out in the hallway working up tears before doing so. What she said did not in any way make sense. She had a family member who killed themselves with a gun. OK, sure. THen she had another family member who died form complications of that? WTF? What does that even mean? It's not even like it was the dead person's elderly mother, one was a sister, one was a cousin IIRC, which would imply there not being a huge age difference between the two. Then she lingered a bit to see she had attention from the press, and then she asked for a police escort form the state police who told her no and to ask the local police. She wanted to show up, be in tears, look like she got bullied by the big bad gun owners, and then had to flee in fear of her life from them. It came off awkwardly, but she got enough to spin something, and that doesn't serve us one bit.

It says chrome lined machine gun steel, so not stainless. Also still says in stock, so snag one and make it compliant if you want.

It might also be due to getting out there ahead of pending legislation.

If there is an issue, it's likely due to panic buying madness. As a general process, the fix should be to blast it, polish anything needing polishing, and finish. Which is basically what happened the first time. Gun finishes in general are not as easy to screw up as automotive finishes.

Hmm. I used to think Jesse was an ok guy. I never knew he had a beef with this guy. Now between his idiotic tv shows and this, he has firmly moved himself into the a-hole category. He should sue himself.

The law needs evidence. If it was an unlawful search and seizure, they aren't evidence.

Hey don't discount maliciousness.

Until they decide that makes it easy to hit you up with conspiracy charges. Or just to whack you with rico.

I think you are complicating it. When you can drive a few hours, or have the ups guy drop it off, and not pay the insane prices, it's gouging. When you can't, there's a reason and it isn't because every business is run by jerks. Based on my interaction with ammonan early on, I won't bother with them. It has nothing to do with their prices though. There price is in line with anyone else who are buying and selling significant quantity in case lots.

Hmm, I seem to recall in my history studies that a small number of Jews with guns gave a heck of a lot on nazis quite a hard time for a while.

It was a generic you referring to whoever gets that job. The last 20 years would be nothing compared to three a day with the demographic distribution of fun owners. Kind of like kicking down the doors of every pot smoker. Make people into criminals, they might just act like criminals right back at you. You don't stand up to them when they are expecting a fight. You bring the fight to them when they aren't expecting it. Asymetric warfare will be a **** when your job is to show up when someone calls.

Most definitely not. There are tons of auctions for used military and Leo brass. The military auctions require an euc, so they are easier for remanufacturers to deal with.

That will go over well with the populace for how many years before you are done?

Better, find the manufacturers with they contracts and tell them if they don't cut the cities off, we'll cut them off.

Yeah, some of it just doesn't fit when they say it does, and you get nothing but crickets when you inform them of such.

They have families they want to see at the end of the day too. They take risks, but once someone starts shooting you have to wonder what the conversion rate of 45% of the population is. LEO is mostly risk of injury with a reasonable cushion built in for that event. The death toll isn't that high per annum, and a lot of that is vehicular.

I'd say it is potentially ambiguous. It has a closed bottom and slanted front. Which can make it work like a slant brake. The open front says hider to me though and wouldn't want to argue it in court. That being said, if it doesn't reduce flash, it isn't a flash hider. That would come down to the structure inside. Other ffls might be comfortable proving their opinion or have something to back it up as a brake.

Where are you at in Sayreville?

Bulklets leave a gun going uphill (the barrel is tilted upwards relative to the plane of the sights) so that the arc of rising and falling intersects the sight picture. Depending on range, without adusting the sights, you get different points of impact relative to the point of aim. Speed a bullet up and you stretch the arc and thus shift the POI relative to the point of aim of the sight picture which was unchanged between the faster and slower bullets. If the bullet has effectively different drag, you change the shape of the arc. In theory this should effectively be rounding error and not matter with handgun projectiles, but it does, and some are different enough that you notice.

Yes, I have head of blowout. It's a movie, a work of fiction. Even so, I would suspect that someone might have commented that Noveske was a scrupulous seat belt wearer or something along those lines if the events seemed out of sorts. Traveling in the evening, falling asleep (busy guy not getting enough sleep), distracted driving (busy guy distracted by keeping in touch with family, friends, business, etc), and having a bit too much too drink all make the pretty plausible list. Then you have the fact that act 2 which is what makes it really a conspiracy is basically an execution style murder. Then you have the fact that Noveske is NOT a large player in the RKBA world or a big manufacturer despite being well known. Nothing he said about meds hasn't been said by a jillion people, many of whom are more credibly influential than him. The FPSRussia guy is even LESS influential, unless you think the whole gun control thing hinges on timely editions of FPSRussia hitting youtube.
