Who to say they won't take the box that is manufactured and marketed as the most deadly, devastating expansion gauranteed to fuck up your target? Use it against you, and claim you were just looking to kill someone based on your ammo choice.

3D printed dummy rounds
Would hate for a piece of plastic to break off and jam the gun up, never know what could happen or when. Snap caps are metal, much more durable.

Red Dot Sights for AR-15 - which one?
That's how it's done! As long as you have a decent clean dot when focusing on the target you're gtg, not much to worry about. The refracted light is more noticeable when you focus on the dot, due to the shape of your eye lense. When you focus beyond the dot, the dot becomes more uniform and less focused.. inherently it makes no sense.. but I beleive it's due to the nature of the led light waves bouncing off and through glass, and how our eye lense can focus on it, to pick up all the imperfections, or look "Through" it and focus down range giving you a better dot in your feild of view.

When you look at your red dot, what are you focusing your eye on? The dot?

Depending on the model they can have battery issues. The battery life is bad. They have terrible drift from zero with minor temp swings. Talking about a hot or cold trunk on your drive to the range. They literally had to buy back any of their RDS if people asked. I think the DOD sued them. Their dots are not crisp at all due to it being a hologram. I had a xps2, I liked the optic but sold it for an MRO. All RDS stay at their moa under magnification, be it 1 2 or 3. They will appear bigger, by whatever the magnification is, along with everything else down sight.

Less expensive and better. Just bought one a few months ago.

ATF just classified this semi-auto as a “machine gun”
It's been available since late 2020, it's all over gunbroker for inflated prices. Cats out the bag.

It's a forced reset trigger. One trigger pull, one bullet fired. As the bolt rides forward there's mechanism that uses the bolt inertia to push on the trigger to rest. It's essential a bump trigger, should be legal until the atf makes up some dumb shit like bump stocks

They would have to change the way they classify the FCG, currently the auto sear is the component that breaks the camels back. The rest of the FCG is irrelevant currently considering every firearm would have the same configuration regardless of select fire or not. If you could ban the ar15 this way, every gun could be. I'm not familiar enough with the g36 design to speak on the authentic nature of the ATFs decisions. However, if it the FCG pocket can accept an auto sear it would be considered a MG. If it takes any type of modification, then it wouldn't be. That's more in alignment with the statutory definitions. How much modification is required is far too subjective to stand up in court. For example, you can own an ar15 reciever with the milled out sear blocks, as long as the m16 FCP is missing the auto sear holes. You cant install one without the holes, regardless if it fits. Just like you can buy an m16 BCG, or the entire Full auto FCG. As a small company, I'm shocked that 2a organizations aren't stepping in to counter the ATFs decision unless it's true, that an auto sear could be dropped in without modification.

Let's talk... fuel tanks!
I was able to buy metal jerry cans at an army place. They had the flip style and seal spout. No filler tube. Not sure why they were allowed to be sold I thought everything had to be epa stupid no spill. Rotopax is another brand.

Out of curiosity, where are you getting this information from? What is a normal self defense situation regarding a home invasion?

Question on the Caa Roni or the MCK for a Glock
It's an accessory, there's no paper to be had. This would be like requesting permission to put a light on your pistol. The paper you have for your "other" doesn't make it legal anyway. It's not a legally binding document.

Holosun L321 opinions
What is your application? There are stand alone illuminators from great companies that are more than half the price, and go well beyond 100 yards. Surefire makes the v1 vampire that was tested to 150yards and is well under 300 bucks.

Anyone use CFE-Pistol for 9mm?
I would be careful with using HP data for round nose. The bullet profile and seating depth can have a big affect on pressure. Make sure the bullet length and OAL would provide a similar seating depth before proceeding. This will ensure proper case volume when using the same charge data. Golden rule... reduce min load by 10% and work up.

There is no way you will squibb a round that falls within lead load data. Keep in mind, all else equal, lead bullets will have less pressure and move faster at the same charge than an FMJ. Theoretically, you should have more pressure for cycling, but the bullet will move slower. You can run plated with a higher charge and jacketed even more due to the bullet maintaining Integrity at higher pressure, and no worries about fouling the barrel, velocities may not be significantly faster though.. The term "gas check" is used to describe when the gases get a head of the bullet when too much pressure blows passed the rifling. At high pressure, lead doest seal as well against the rifling as plated, and plated less than fmj. You are on the low side for FMJ, but that just means it will be a minor load, very soft shooting. Depending on your recoil spring it may Fail to cycle worse case, and accuracy may be bad, or good.. never know till you try. You are supposed to run plated bullets with lead data. So that would be a starting charge if it were me.

Stock picks..anyone do some small time investing?
Steer clear of motley fool. They always parade around about their "best" advice... I've never been impressed with their track record. You don't need these investment advisors to help you, they simply track which sectors are trading well each day and jump on a few well performing stocks... in essence they are chasing the trends most of the time. That's not how you play stocks. If you want to trade stocks and be successful, you really need to dive into a specific sector and spend time reading about it each day to see what companies are doing, and what they are marketing. If there are regulations being imposed, and if companies are having issues. This is where it's super helpful to read about a companies profile and financial statements because you can see who is actually profitable. Montley fool stands out as a pump and dump type scheme, to me at least.

Red Dot Sights for AR-15 - which one?
For the MRO? No, actually you would gain significant improvement. The parallax issue is more specifically from "odd" position shots where you cant get being the reticle on center. Like laying on the ground. The MRO suffers when the dot is at the extremes of the glass, from POI. Within the middle majority of the glass the red dot is still on POI like every other red dot. Using a magnifier will place you more appropriately on center since it WILL have parallax limitations to even see through it. The dots always increase in size with magnification, a 2moa dot at 3x appears 6moa. A 1moa dot at 3x is, 3moa. But moa doesn't change at distance. 1moa is roughly 1inch every 100 yards.. its an angle thing. The 1moa dot magnified to appear 3moa, is still... 1 moa.. If you maintain proper cheek weld and treat it like any other optic with parallax its irrelevant. I find the benefit with the MRO is the field of view. I would take the MRO with worse parallax than an aimpoint pro that gives me tube vision.

77gr won't fit into a standard ar15 magazine, but they will chamber by hand with long ogive. The hornady 75 grains don't even fit. The 73gr hornady eld bullets are the heaviest substitutes that fit, they were developed specifically for ar15 mags. Those 69 grains will run max oal to fit your armags.

AR with MOE front pistol grip N.J. compliant?
Did you really think that question through and think an ffl would ever do that? First, the less obvious ... You cannot remove a stock from a rifle and transfer it as a rifle. The FFL would be redefining the statutory definition of the weapon to no longer meet the requirements of a rifle. A stock must be attached to it. The more obvious, Not to mention the FFL would be idiotic to let any weapon leave their premises that isn't documented as having compliance work done when required. There is no FFL that would ever do something like this. They could put a fixed stock on, and give you the non-compliant one detached. I have seen it done... But even then most places wouldn't do that in fear you would simply put it back on. What will they tell the ATF when they walk in the door holding a non complaint rifle that they transferred? Will they at least offer documentation the rifle was legal when it left? Or they simply gave the illegal parts separately to the customer?
