  1. Because the real estate law was written by lawyers?
  2. I wouldn't give kimber my money. From the mag side of things, they can either be not straight, or they can have the lips opened up too much. Both should cause issues with most guns from my experience. As would just being dimensionally out of spec in depth width height. One thing that might be you vs. the gun is a strong mag catch sping and you pressing hard enough to disengage the catch, but then letting it drag on the mag body. Other than that it can be a bent trigger bow, or possibly the sear spring protruding into the mag well too much and causing drag. The stock mags might have weaker springs or be polished less than your others and can't quite overcome it.
  3. Well, I have mags that work fine after having sat loaded for over a year. I also have my m&p mags from my production rig. They have been through about 34,000 rounds of ammo loaded up to 10 rounds across 5 mags, so approximately 680 cycles per spring and the work great.
  4. Can't remember who mine is. Have had it for two plus years. It's pretty much low risk as by law, you can change providers at any time with no penalty. It just takes one full billing cycle. You don't need to involve the company you are leaving either. First year savings was about $0.05 per kwh. Second year it was about $0.07. This year, jcp&l rolled back some of their insane hikes on the supply side and rolled them into an increase on the delivery, so savings for winter is going to be about $0.02. It adds up. The biggest benefit is that the magically low estimated reading the month before jcp&l goes to summer rates doesn't mean anything any more. That right there is usually enough to put about $80-$100 back in my pocket. I got several fliers in the mail and looked into them. I went with the one with the most info available. The energy isn't bought from jcp&l. It's bought at the time they sell off access to generated supplies. FYI the 2015 sales just got round one done a few months ago. Bad news is that obamas coal penalties kick in and there won't be much cheaper generation to water down the increase, so not sure what good it will do past 2014. These brokers sell cheaply based on swapping cheap generation for more expensive, or trading over buys. Don't buy from the squeegee people dumped in your neighborhood by the vanload. Don't try to get frequent flier miles. Don't sign up with your buddy, unless your buddy deals in multi million dollar buys and sells of generation supply on a regular basis.
  5. How is it manufacturing unless he whipped up a new frontier lower in his garage?
  6. Uh, they don't appear to clean up any easier. There are plenty of reviews and comments that keep coming back to that. Do they corrode less? Mil spec bcgs don't seem to be that vulnerable based on my experience. Is it shiny? Well yes, until you get them hot. Then they get patchy bluish putple spots like overheated stainless steel. Will it run reliably without lube? Not really. No more than any polished bcg. It will lighten the wallet a bit faster.
  7. That's about what I got out of it. Some folks are hard to please.
  8. The fact that the door flange is larger than the opening into the safe. External hinges permit for larger passive lugs than internal permits. Why grind on the nice thick hinges when the sides and top are thin.

    I haven't gotten my hands on the ruger, but have played with piston AR-15s. They are really a solution in search of a problem. You can feel the greater reciprocating mass on some of them when shooting which makes them torque a bit more. The design of the ruger doesn't use a big piston, so it shouldn't be too bad form that aspect. It also has carrier modifications that should reduce the carrier tilt problem that comes from striking the carrier so off center to cycle it. The early models did not. If you get one without it, I'd send it in to ruger to get that fixed. That being said, with the round counts people are getting form a quality DI upper without failure, and the general availability of replacement parts, I don't see why you would go piston. For the price premium you pay for more complicated and smaller economies of scale, you can get a pretty nicely built DI rifle and not have to worry if the hack they engineered to the design works or not.
  10. Have you purchased a gun in NJ? knowing my zip code isn't exactly providing more information than they already have.
  11. If you are wearing reading glasses to see up close, but you can focus on the front sight fine, just buy some non-rx safety glasses. Rudy exceptions can take the broadest prescriptions of anything I have encountered. They aren't cheap, but if your prescription is pricey, the outside safety lenses with the lifetime warranty taking the hit is a lot better than the $300 prescription lenses. If you want to try what you have, just get some add-on side shields. Most eyeglass shops should be able to help you with that.
  12. For that one... yes. IN general, the BATFE permitted some flash reduction and had some mystery threshold for it being a flash suppressor. During the federal AWB, the smith comp reduced flash significantly over an open muzzle, the PWS 556FC or whaterver a bit less so. However, they both passed the BATFE test as both were sold on post ban configurations.
  13. No, they tend to back the candidate with the best record on 2nd amendment issues as they see it. In reality, you had no choice this election, in which case I guess they endorse the party platform that is least anti, which the GOP's was.

    There's three that I know of. Dunno where you get two. Blind pin covered with weld. Silver soldered using solder with a melting temp of 1100F or better. External seem weld around X% of the circumference of the muzzle device. The last is just a giant PITA for DIY, and not really undoable even with a machine shop, so nobody really does it. If you have a dedicated machine it could be quick on an assembly line though. However, I don't believe the BATFE ever set out to define permanent. You ask if the method you propose is sufficient and get a reply. Myself, I'd wonder what they would say about rockset adhesive. You need 1200 degrees in theory to remove stuff put on with it.
  15. The NRA doesn't have bags of money really, just votes. When you run a gun grabbing governor, who in his first primary would have to have done about 7x as well as he did the first time around in the primaries to have come in SECOND in them. You can only do so much with what you have to work with.
  16. Doubt it. How you voted isn't a protected class.
  17. Did you ever consider the notion that your chief is an a-hole? I'm guessing that's about it. It might be that someone who can put pressure on the chief is an a-hole too. But I'll play odds it's the chief.
  18. Get a new BCG. New BCG on a new upper is usually ok unless osmething is out of spec with one or the other. New bolt on an old upper is usually ok. Old bolt on a new upper can have issues if it is worn enough. Mixing and matching old bolts and old uppers that did not get that way together can be problematic as well. Not that it will be but htat is basically the increased order of risk. Besides it is jsut a pain to swap stuff whenever you want to swap uppers. Also, if you break something you now have a spare. Want to sell that first upper because you now realize what you thought you liked wasn't what you actually like, it's easier to sell.
  19. I'll accept that this was intended to be a vignette not rally in the book or that combined ones form the book. However, it undermines the initial premise of how the zombies went from an aberration to a disaster. Lots of "these were people we knew and loved" and denial on an individual level as well as a scientific level and bureaucratic level went into the foundation of the disaster. What baffles me is why bother buying the name? You make that and you are pretty much guaranteeing the fans of the book won't go. The name doesn't mean anything to non fans. It's catchy, but so are a million other titles, and they are cheaper and if you just made "BRAD PITT's Zombie Inferno" you probably would have gotten at least the zombie fans from the world war Z pile of fans. Which is probably most of them. Really they paid for negative word of mouth advertising, and maybe to catch those folks that heard world war Z was supposed ot be a good book.
  20. If it doesn't have a bill number, it isn't a potential threat.Seriously, since 2004 there have been at least three submitted by that crazy lady from upstate new york. Nothing without grandfathering has made it out if a committee with a majority of not only dems, but gun grabbing dems. Save your worrying until something is submitted. Until then the news is reporting "Dianne Feinstein hates guns and gun owners.". Really? That's news?
  21. Well let's see. No grandfathering = dead in the water. States can play the "you can sell it out of state" game, but the fedgov would have to pony up compensation to be constitutional. If it was as stated in the article, it'd be like the last 5 or 6 awb renewal bills drafted that died in committee
  22. The gates should fail open. I may be wrong.
  23. Only had a notch pre cut the whole radius so nothing but some locktite was needed Mine was a bushmaster. I had to grind in flats for the set screws, but it was the right diameter for a set screw smith comp. Also fit just fine on an fn barrel and a rock river.
  24. That's an awesome gun and an awesome company there. Tell them you want your full purchase price back at this point IMO. Maybe have some fun, call them up and ask who in the billing department you should send the lease fee for the firearm.
  25. Yes they were. The news just didn't condense a world of misery into 7 minutes. They didn't do ratings for news programs, and they were programmed mroe locally and had less stories. So at best you got a handful of bad news that was nearby, and a handful of news that was bad and national. It's pretty rare for abductions to happen that are not custodial interference. Period. The only thing that has genuinely gotten more dnagerous for kids since I was a child (and people older than me too), has been traffic. There are a LOT more cars on the roads with a lot more distractions while they are driving. That and maybe STDs for your teenagers. The infection rate on some has passed certain tipping points, and for the (formerly) treatable ones, you are seeing a lot of drug resistant strains pop up.
