I'm pretty sure it's not that big compared to all the people that go into all the walmarts each day. They have 2 million employees and handle about 100 million customers a week. Also retail strikes could hamper holiday retail, and that would be really bad for the economy.

You could just try joe random optomitrist. Mine I just went to regularly because he gave me the most accurate prescriptions that caused minimal eye strain. When I moved to having a shooting specific script (because I moved to high CRI materials for my day to day and they didn't jibe well with shooting rifles at all), he was pretty jazzed to be doing something more interesting than the usual. Didn't know a lick about guns.

So what minor mistake of possessing and transporting firearms counts as a crime of the seocnd degree, and thus leaving your house could be construed as conspiracy to commit said crime if if you really had no intention of doing so. Remember, in NJ it is always affirmative defense.

That's pretty much why I have a few. So I can get everything off those particular barrels. They are cheap and convenient. But not the most effective comp.

Higher velocity is causing tumble with plated? Check your crimp, you may be compromising the plating. Usually it just results in worse accuracy and gives you lead spirals on the target. But if you really push it and/or you rifling is tight or sharp, you cans do some asymmetric damage and get tumbling and key holing. Plated likes lots of belling and a gentle taper crimp.

Myself? I owned a usp. Bought it back around 97. Their ads proclaimed how you could swap out the safety setup for different configs. Asked if they could send me parts to try a different setup. Nope. Asked if I could send it in for them to do it. Nope. Asked if they could fix the POS first gen trigger when they improved it (somewhat) finally. Nope. They were neither helpful nor friendly. Especially when I indicated a was a retail customer. They may have changed, but they earned their rep.

Not to abusive, not the most effective, but you can get the gas block off over one and do help a bit.

Not to mention the .44 automag shoots.. well .44 automag, not .44 magnum.

Depends on the barrel, your loads, and what you consider sufficient accuracy. Not everyone tosses a barrel when it ceases to shoot minute of gnat ass. Baffle erosion can also cause the comp to become less effective. I know there are a number of 3 gunning peeps who loved the dreadnought F2 except that it rapidly had the adopters of it turn on them because they started failing due to baffle erosion. The F2 not only got thing, but had square corner, which didn't help. Firebird precision put in a replaceable initial baffle face because they didn't like the experience they had with erosion in other comps. Nordic components tactical comp moved to a smaller hole through it. I suspect because of issues of erosion and deformation. I have one of the early ones. It is starting to erode, and the barrel on that gun is nowhere near shot out. IT was also pretty easy to start deforming it with installation force. My main reason for offering the alternative was that the $125 price was a bit high. I'm assuming it was the deployment comp because they charge more for that one. It also tends to be out of stock. $85 for a very similar design on something that might wear out might be more attractive. The vg6 precision gamma 5.56 also uses a similar design, but has a battle like comp mesh up top rather than popple holes like the dynamic resistance brake or the wheaton deployment. Now you are talking even thinner pieces of metal at the top of the baffle. So despite being $85 too, I didn't bother mentioning it. The full size wheaton comp at $99 is reasonably competitive on price though and seems to be ins stock most of the time. As the computational fluid dynamic nerds start reviewing the existing comps, it's increasingly looking like there is not a lot of benefit to a third baffle and that comps that use a two or more baffle design, make the baffles large for the comp diameter, and create more side venting to the top rather than the bottom either through vectoring or having a narrower piece of metal at the top than the bottom, and have some sort of upward venting like popple holes or a high pressure chamber with top vents, tend to all encompass the majority of the benefits. If your comp is pinned, avoiding the high pressure chamber is better as it gives you at least some access to carbon build up on the crown.

I can't say for certain, I'm not them. But lots of entities don't franchise single locations, they franchise an area or region. When they do this, they often have stipulations about minimum and maximum numbers of stores you can open in that region. From what the various franchise evaluations say, Panera sells you a region in which you typically will open 15 stores in the next 6 years. The investment to open is typically 900k-1.6 million, plus operational expenses, plus the franchise fees, plus they want you to do that repeatedly over the next 6 years. So they require liquid assets of $3,000,000.00 and a net worth of 7.5 million. I assume so that they can feel comfortable you have the means to deliver on their plan. https://www.panerabread.com/en-us/company/franchise-overview.html

There's what I buy and what I shoot. I think at the moment I have stuff in .22 lr, .308, .444, .223/5.56, 9mm, .40, .45, .357 magnum and 12ga. But the majority of my stuff is .22, 40, .223 and 12 ga. That's what I keep in inventory in quantity as it offers me the most flexibility in competition and generally guides my purchase choices these days unless it's something cool and not in my preferred calibers.

Correct. Handguns are used more in crime. Rifles are not allowed to be concealable or they are NFA items. This is just a signal that they are going to push for what amounts to bans on handguns. Look at CA and their approved list shenanigans. Doing this means they can make their emotional appeals, then have stats in their side, and for the rifle side if things they believe they can successfully get location by location bans on open carry and NFA covers the ban on concealing other than handguns. Rumor also has it that they will have a smart gun dealer. From the sounds of it, someone finally figured out that an 01 ffl is cheap.

If you do like panera, their retail products, and this has made you stop going and or consuming them, you might want to take the time to do the following. 1) write a letter to the panera mother ship and tell them you are no longer eating there because they have chosen to take a political position that is harmful to you. 2) find out who owns the franchise(s) you frequented. Write THEM a letter telling them you are no longer a customer of THEIR location due to the mother ship playing politics. They had to pony up $3 million in cash and demonstrate $7.5 million in additional assets to open that location. Let them know they paid for the privilege of having corporate drive paying regulars away. 3) if you consume their packaged stuff from Costco or BJs, let them know you love having packed X, but would really prefer a different brand. No need to explain the motivation, just tell them it's a disappointing product. Leave the local employees alone. They really have nothing to do with it and yelling at them is just being a poor ambassador for our side.

Looking at the Wheaton, I'd be concerned about longevity. There is very little meat at the top, and that generally means faster baffle erosion. It's layout is following a fairly successful formula, the dynamic resistance brake is similar in a smaller package with a bit more beef at the top, and cheaper.

I like 62 as a weight, but non steel core for plinking. Nobody has rules against normal fmj.

They'd have to buy their debt AND offer them further loans. They were managed badly enough to be carrying that much debt and have profitability low enough to not be able to pay interest. They are in deep doo doo

You relplied while i was editing with more specific instructions after seeing that it worked beyond preview. it's now in that post.

My take on pivot vs. no pivot comes down to what you need. Do you need to be level on uneven terrain? If so, pivot may be useful. Are you only going to use it off of a bench or platform that is essentially level? If yes, then pivot won't be useful. Are you relying on your bipod to aid in zeroing? If yes, then pivot will be a hinderance to consistency unless you REALLY lock it out. Not just think you have tightened it up enough but actually have. IMO dollar for dollar, if you are only using your bipod from a bench, get a rest. IT does the job better and is easily used with all your rifles. This is based on my experience with harris style bipods. Other designs may fare differently.

This is a pretty solid review about the what and the why after some period of ownership. http://www.thefirearmblog.com/blog/2014/07/18/gear-review-tac-con-3mr-trigger/

As the person who inherited them, she is GTG as the owner. As the owner, she may sell to anyone with the proper paperwork to buy them following the usual rules for face to face sales. There are stickies here on that. What she doesn't have is all of the exceptions for transporting that an FID holder has. For family members coming to the house and completing the paperwork, no big deal. For strangers? That may not be desirable.

Dude. You don't get it. piston ARs are for the most part short stroke piston deisgns. The AK is not, it is a long stroke piston system. the AK is a stamped steel receiver with loose tolerances, piston ARs are not. LOTS of places have made ak47s and they design has proven to be tolerant of a wide variety of QC. PIston ARs have not. GRanted, there are some strange offerings out there like the ICE-15 which is built a heck of a lot more like an AK has like zero upper parts compatibility beyond the bolt, but uses a standard ar-15 lower. Even so, they have zero track record compared to the AK. Grunting "is reliable like AK" is not a valid statement. However you seem to fail to grasp the meaning of much of what you type.

I have no problem with new and different. I jsut think if you are going to have one, even if only for a bit, and established design with a known track record, and good parts availability should one have a lemon and need to get it repaired is the better choice. For the second? Have fun. Knock yourself out. I like cool guns, but practicality comes before novelty. Fortunately we can buy more than one.

No you cretin. "My friend saw the Easter bunny" is hearsay. "The Easter bunny tried to eat my face off" is an eye witness account. You can accuse he of lying, but it isn't hearsay.

Order online form home depot, and it is delivered by an ariens authorized repair dude who put it together. Mine was. Also, occasionaly, HD coupon codes for appliances work for snow blowers. I got my 28" ariens for $799 delivered because of that.
