Displaced Texan

Hits harder means the force of the hammer on the firing pin, and as a result, the strike on primer, is harder. Some light triggers have trouble igniting military primers because some military primers are harder to ignite.

Yep. I was gonna do a brisket but the ones I saw locally are $90!!!!!! No way. Wife wanted smoked wings and turkey breast anyway. I have banned rice and seaweed in my household for awhile…. Im so sick of Japanese food!!

Turkey breast reached 160° so I pulled it. Has to rest for a few hours, and then I’ll divide it up. Not as pretty as 10X’s bbq, but I ain’t going after the beauty contest!

Dry brined, smoked chicken thighs too. Turkey breast is still chugging along.

Smoked some chicken wings today. We batch these up, vac seal and freeze them, and then crisp them up in the air fryer. Delicious. I popped a turkey breast on now.

We used 4 cans. Is that a coke can SBR?

Yep, me too. Used to use hairspray or rubbing alcohol as propellant. They were a LOT of fun back then!

Exactly.

That brings up a point that kinda chaps my ass… We are all told that the Republicans come to ‘compromises’ on gun control. What exactly do we get out of the compromise? If you’re not sure, I’ll tell you…..we get fucked. Im down with nationwide Constitutional Carry as a compromise in this case.

I don’t disagree in principle. I think the nature of the juvenile offense needs to factor into it. Little 15 year old Johnny violently carjacks someone, or assaulting someone, is a lot different than defacing a water tower with a can of spray paint. Those things need to be taken into consideration, but I’m not objecting to juvenile records being factored into the equation.

Yeah, I know it’s Yahoo news, but here is a bit of info on what’s being considered for ‘improved’ background checks. https://www.yahoo.com/news/senate-gun-negotiators-hit-snag-194330282.html Im actually not that butt hurt about considering juvenile records in NICS checks. While many kids do stupid shit when they are young, I think the record needs to be considered.

This.

Right….but remember, I’m in central Texas now.

$4.49 for 87 octane in my neighborhood today.

They have ZERO interest in doing anything to prevent gun violence. Gun violence is nothing but a tool they use as a reason to take more control of the people, by stripping their rights away. Once they take the 2A out of the equation, they can do anything they want with no resistance.

I don’t think it IS a coincidence anymore. https://townhall.com/tipsheet/juliorosas/2022/06/02/democrat-congressman-vows-to-get-rid-of-norms-to-pass-gun-control-bills-n2608139

I think it’s a bad thing in many ways, but a lot of this has been brought on by the NRA themselves

Exactly what I’ve been talking about for awhile. Give them an inch, and they try for a mile. First it’s the evil assault rifles, then it’s the 9mm pistols. Then it will be all calibers. And your hunting rifles and shotguns too. They won’t stop until they ban ALL firearms. We must not give in. Don’t give them an inch.

I have been a Life member for a very long time. I will not give them another dime until Wayne is booted.

There you go trying to be logical! You know that doesn’t work in our society!

Hell, a lot of these kids live at home until they are 25 anyways..

They will never stop until all law abiding citizens are prohibited from firearms ownership. If we give an inch, they take a mile. What exactly has our side received in these ‘common sense’ gun laws that have been passed (and I mean on a federal level)? Name one.

You beat me to the punch.
