Starting form zero, you want to train accuracy first IMO. It's a lot easier to add speed to an accurate shooter than to teach someone how to be accurate while they are going full tilt. And you can suck pretty fast, so folks who worry about fast first tend to get out there before reigning it in and trying to become more accurate.

You'll note I said 6" targets at 100 aren't that hard offhand with a 3moa dot with practice. But it'll take a bit of practice. Offhand is standing with no support aids. Offhand accuracy is practical, so it's good to practice. 12x24 at 100 is gigantic. You don't need a magnifier for that. With a dot, it's something I would expect to have a new shooter hitting regularly if I took them to the range to shoot for an hour and they had nothing wrong with their eyes or something. Adding a magnifier will make some things at 200 easier, and will probably add performance out to 300. Past that you are doing hold over by pure eyeball and no reticle references. Also no reference for cant, which will matter a lot at that point. For example the 12x24 aT 500. Its probably easier with irons than a dot. You can see it, but not awesome. If your irons have a 600 yard setting, you can kind of aim at it at least. With a dot, you are trying to estimate 7moa holdover with no reference other than a 2-4 mow dot in the wrong place. Nit trying to bust your balls, just provide some perspective about realistic goals and where different gear might actually be needed. A good 2 moa dot with .223 is pretty flexible and with decent vision anything over 4moa from 25-300 yards should be doable with practice and good technique. (not offhand for 4moa, but braced or prone).

If you can't hit a 12x24 target at a hundred without a magnifier, something is really wrong with your eyes. I'm -5.25 in my right eye and I have been using my 3MOA dot to hit 8" targets at 200. It's far from ideal, which is why I saved up my pennies for a good 1-8x scope. Technique and knowing how to aim matter more than being able to see the target really well so long as you can actually discern the target and it's edges. 6" targets at 100 off hand are pretty easy with the above mentioned dot after some practice.

Most definitions I've seen of field stripping something exclude things like disassembly of the bolt, removal of a trigger group, etc. It's one of those ill definied things. Out in the field, I would ever do more than pull the bcg, take the bolt out of the bcg, and hose things out with come CLP. I can be cleaning shit or shooting. I'd rather be shooting. If it weren't for shooting TAC, every 1k rounds wouldn't be that gnarly. TAC is just dirty as shit. But it's relatively temperature stable, and meters like a dream.

First, I didn't say ar, I said anything, so it goes beyond my AR. For the AR(s), since I'm running an aggressive brake, doing gas flow restriction at the gas key, and shooting nearly 100% reloads using ramshot TAC. It gets frickin gnarly in there, and the gnarly is mostly carbon build up, which can become very rock like. Staying ahead of the stalagtites of rock hard cabron is worth the annual effort and seems sufficient. Beyond that, some of it is quality of life: re-grease the buffer spring for volume control, a bit of moly grease in the right places on the trigger group to keep it smooth. Not strictly necessary, but I like the way it keeps the rifle behaving and once a year seems to keep it running that way. Some of it is just so things are clean enough I can make sure they aren't in the process of breaking. Clean up stuff so I can see if the gas tube or gas key are earing excessively or unevenly. Make sure the buffer retaining pin looks ok and isn't beginning to crack, make sure the gas key isn't working loose, firing pin isn't peening, the cotter pin isn't getting ready to die, make sure no cracks are developing in the lugs of the bolt, no cracks in the bolt body, nothing building up under the extractor. Make sure my o ring in there isn't coming apart, make sure the buffer spring hasn't shortened too much. etc. But you gotta clean it to inspect it. The rest of the year? I add oil regularly, and hose it out a little bit with solvent and apply new lube every 1000 rounds or so. Also your version of detail strip and mine may differ. Everything with a roll pin stays where it is. mostly it is bcg and bolt disassembly, remove trigger group, unpack the buffer extension. No dicking around with the inside of the gas tube or the gas block. If shooting it won't clear it out, me and a giant pipe cleaner aren't going to help things.

As I read it no. The law references the interstate commerce clause directly and excludes the state of residence of the individual. The way I read it is thus: If you live in state A, and can't get a permit there because may issue, and have no other permit you can't carry anywhere that requires a permit, as you don't have one. If you live in state A, and can't get a permit there because may issue, and have a permit from state B, you can carry in any state but state A. Those who have a permit from any other state can carry in state A, but have to abide by the limitations of the laws in state A. i.e. If state A prohibits carry in bars, and your permit is from state G that lets you carry in bars, you get no protection from carrying into a bar in state A. Additionally, if you are from a no permit state, you would have to get a permit from some other state as an out of state resident in a permit state to carry in state A. Additionally, the way it is written, if a court decided that the clause that limits the laws protections to citizens in their own state of residence were found unconstitutional because say.. equal protection, then that portion may be thrown out without tossing the rest of the law. Basically the senate bills are a heaping pile of shit. They couldn't keep them in committee, and this is there so they can keep fix nics alive and unpaired and delay a vote on this long enough to kill hr38 by promising we'll vote on this, or by gutting hr38 and turning it into this. I'll leave it up to you if this is due to gun grabbers, shithead GOP members, or them working as a team. You can also hold the position that this is a bill crafted to minimize the issue of pre-emption of states rights.

I suggest you blow it out with 30,000psi or so of hot gas pew pew plates is right. If your firing pin moves fine, there's nothing to get bent out of shape over. I'm with HE, if you are using it regularly, you have to keep perspective and not go nuts doing what doesn't need doing. If I'm putting it up in the safe for a while, it's gotten wet, that's a different story. I also detail strip and clean once a year for things that get used a lot.

Our only real protection is the traffic. When places are busy, you really don't want ot travel anywhere you don't have to.

THe gestapo is out there eh? I find it odd that have repeatedly crossed the border on I95 while in possession of a lead foot on numerous occasions and have not encountered any of them. You would think it would garner some attention.

bitcoin is not hard to understand, it's just been largely misrepresented. To summarize the technical bits simply, and not fully correctly, it's basically counting by a very very hard method that prevents you from skipping ahead. For every unit counted, another bitcoin exists. People would like you to think that because the scarcity is built in and enforced, it will be a stable currency. This is not true because for this to occur, the total valuation of the bitcoin supply would have to be immense. Right now at $10k a pop it is about $300 billion. This is small enough that you can effectively manipulate the market with about $120-300 million dollars. This means it isn't stable. People would like you to believe that it's awesome for paying for criminal goods. This is not true because it is anonymous. Hell, bitcoin is WAY more traceable to a person's bitcoin wallet than cash is to an individual. However, it does get you around bank's reporting laws. However, unless you got into them early and mined them, or traded a lot of material goods into them, you aren't able to really avoid them because most of the exchanges that will turn bitcoins into cash and vice versa are going to have a record of it, and have to report the large cash transaction. Having an understanding of bitcoin, or block chain in general doesn't mean you are involved in criminal endeavors. It probably means you are a geek, but that's about it.

Darpa created the internet. That's why in the early days it was called arpanet. The reason we didn't need it before is that the internet is run on peering agreements. Rather than behaving like telco or wireless telco and charging additional fees for communication that involves networks other than your own, they decided to omit that and just agree that if you accept my network traffic at no charge, I'll accept yours. We do this as peer networks, and save everyone lots of billing hassles. The problem is broadband ISPs decided they wanted to court customers that primarily pull data in rather than send it out. Oddly, this happens when you mandate huge disparities between upload and download speeds. SO after creating their own problme they scream it is not fair and they can't afford it!!! And ain't shit gonna trickle down. Even under the current state of affairs, the margin on broad band is 97% for cable companies. NINTY-FRIKIN-SEVEN!!!!. That's after infrastructure, employees, customer acquisition and retention, etc. They need either price controls or de-regulation where we can have total service resellers and no government protected monopolies. Because right now they can charge what they want, and want to sell you service they don't deliver, all while having a state granted regional monopoly. Which is BULLSHIT.

It's pretty much identical to the majority of semi-auto shotguns. Spring in a tube in the grip.

Check the back of the mag. It has probably started to crack at the seam in the mold in the back. I have a bunch of GEN 1 hex mags and so far 3 have failed in the same way after a decent amount of use. Gotta try and warranty them sometime.

I would suggest these answers. 1) making moonshine is not illegal with the proper paperwork. About the time this show showed up is when getting all the right permissions got simpler and cheaper. 2) It's "reality" tv. I would suggest that there is nothing illegal going on and it's all put on for show. Can you tell a wooded corner of a private parcel from a state forest, or are you relying on the show's producers to be honest? Is that shine in the still, or water? 3) There is no "wholesale" for illegal products. Whatever price they put up is likely to be as valid as anything in any of the other fake shows with the reality label on them. The arbitrary prices they pick may be chosen to not undercut any of the legal and licensed moonshine products out there. Those are pricey because a) it's a fad, and b) the changes mentioned in 1 above to make it easier to do legally limit volume of production for the easy path to legality.

Yes, same exact reason has eliminated female only exercise chains right? Oh.. no it didn't. There's tons o precedent that you can exclude males without ruffling anyone's feathers.

Nope, this one is better https://www.lamborghini.com/en-en/brand/innovation-excellence/terzo-millennio?utm_source=social&utm_medium=twitter&utm_campaign=tw_TerzoMillennio The lamboghini terzo millenio. It has similar DNA. a nearly fully performance oriented concept that is a reaction to regulatory pressures. So like the original M4S concept, its all about going fast and being light and doing so in a less conventional, more fuel efficient manner.

Not even close to obscure enough. Nor polarizing enough while having high tech race car looks that are distinctly not street like, but broadly appealing in a race car kind of way. It's a hard call. Concept cars aren't what they used to be.

Dude it's not even that. They can trade a guilty verdict on other charges, and an easy win for the prosecutor, for dropping of gun charges. Bullshit technicalities only screw with those who are doing their best to obey the law. This is where the gun grabbers don't see the inevitable. Criminalize me enough, and nothing is more risky than just existing day to day. You might as well have no laws at that point as your daily life consists of what you think you can get away with.

Ok, if remaking the wraith, what car gets the car role?

Like I said, having something decent on you at all times is useful. 4/3ds are DSLR/MILC/EVIL They don't replace DSLRs becuase they are dslrs. Just smaller sensors. Physics says that sensor size matters with a number of optical effects. You want affordable wide angle glass with no distortion, you need big sensors. You want affordable zooms with good quality, you want smaller sensors. The other camera you are referring to is the light L16. Which is going to crash and burn as cell phones already impinge on their basic operating concept, and the 50MP composite image is no longer impressive given the size of DSLR sensors at this point. SOny, pentax and others are already impinging on the noise reduction and color depth via multiple sensor exposures. It could bring cheap to the table, but you mention $2000... so... Apple gives a crap about how well old models perform for about 3 years. They give a crap if it runs at all for about 4. Which is a damn site better than the android ecosystem where you are lucky to have access to security patches at all and most things are abandoned in 18 months or less. Mostly less.

It's a house branded flambeau case as far as I can tell. That is not the pelican pressure vent, and pellican doesn't have the metal tabs on most/any of their cases. Pelican has two ridges that wrap the case around by the latches and no side latches until the cases get REALLY big. Note, the flambeau case overmolding on the handle is available in gray as well as black. I can't find a 20" which may be where dise latches come in. It is not a pelican. MTM case guard also has some pelican knock offs that look very similar and probably come form the same factory the flambeau comes from. SKB has similar cases as well, which I have a few of of difering models over the years.

Which fedex? fedex overnight is awesome, so is two day. fedex ground used to be ok, but now there's s chance stuff labeled ground is really.... fedex home, which is formerly RPS, and also is the earthly incarnation of the devil itself. They won't hold packages at a fed ex facility because they do not use fedex facilities. Way back when they'd even consider a package hold, I did one. It was a nightmare, and frankly you do not want anything handled by these people. They are 100% contractors, so if your location is on a shit contractor's route, good luck. None of them will put a package on hold until they hit the max delivery tries because then they don't get paid for it. I avoid it like the plague. If I have run into the local driver, and they seem decent, then I just avoid it. Because even the best drivers are saddled with the way the whole thing is run.

What can it do that you can't with a DSLR? Other than some post processing (portrait light BS) being available in phone that nobody is going to bother with in camera for DSLRs or EVIL/MILC systems, I can't recall anything really notable. It's nice having a decent, very unobtrusive camera with you all the time, but they aren't a replacement for the real deal yet. nor will they likely ever be given the physics of the whole thing.

yup, as I have said elsewhere, the judicial appointments are really the only thing a vote for trump was about. The rest would be business as usual with the only change being the amount of arguing and complaining before someone gives Goldman Sachs a handy anyway.

OK, if the shockwave is cool and legit, why is nobody making a T2 style chopped down 1887 clone?
