PMC .223 55gr $40/rd
Shipping $15.50 on a half case, 22.50 for 1k, still “not bad” for the times we’re in. Plus the governor’s share.

Who is going to carry insurance?
I don’t have a dog in this fight but all programs I’ve looked at, including US Law Shield, provide civil suit defense. Of course, if you lose, then you’re on the hook for the judgment. Is that where you’re making the distinction with liability insurance?

Considering picking up a carry pistol. Having a hard time deciding.
M&P 2.0 in 4” barrel. I don’t think anyone is hiding the fact that it was designed to match the G19 Thats what I applied with. Stupid that we’re (currently) limited to 10 rounds but someday it will hold 15 in flush fitting mags

Castle Doctrine?!
I didn’t mean using the feed for tactical purposes, I was wondering if a lawyer could use that on his behalf like “he had a PID he wasn’t shooting blind!” But it seems it’s moot in this case, as the guy had broken through the door before the shots were fired
-
Castle Doctrine?!
I watched quickly but I did hear some sort of warning, like, “I have a gun!” Or something like that i feel like shooting through the door was pretty irresponsible bc he couldn’t be sure of his target…but then again what if he was watching the feed from the ring cam live, does that matter?

Who went to PA for prints?
Remember there is a rush of people both for carry permit printing plus newbs that are trying to get an FID before the training requirements go into effect. And for all I know, fall sports and other back to school printing might be on top of that But clearly the bottleneck and fees are a scam regardless

Clay targets question
Their online inventory sucks, sometimes underrepresenting, sometimes over. They had a lot two weeks ago tho

range that allows holster draw
Probably Ready Aim Fire

Ar15 vs Bullpup rifle
Remember average mean radius is NOT the same as extreme spread. When I hear “1 moa ammo” I think extreme spread (that’s how I measure my own groups) but the Army likes AMR because it’s still indicative of the accuracy but a flyer or two doesn’t torpedo the whole lot

Defensive firearm use
I use 1Blocker for iOS, it’s usually successful for those type of paywalls (certainly works for the blaze) and most other annoyances. $5 per year.

RECOMMNEDATIONS FOR AC REPAIR
I used E&S Heating and Cooling for a new install and they did good work. There’s an outfit on the quarantine crawl that quoted too, but they were higher

Conceal Carry Gear and Clothes
Vertx has some pretty slick CCW clothes, including pants with hidden elastic that lets them fit both with and without a holster, without puckering.

Appendix carry or 4O'clock
I think a lot of it depends on the shape of you. When I used to 4 o’clock it was unmistakable that I had something there, perhaps bc I’m sorta skinny. AIWB with a well designed holster I forget it’s there I can’t remember the brand (crossbreed?) but there are some deep carry clips that have multiple holes for adjusting ride height. I think you can get them by themselves if you have a holster you like and just want it to ride higher ETA: for example https://www.crossbreedholsters.com/j-clip-2-0.html

Latest GFH podcast opines (Bach? Nappen? He didn’t say) it’s still no. Stick with critical defense/pow’r’ball etc

Looking for an App that I can database my firearms
I use a spreadsheet as well, and include ammo estimates and magazine quantities, estimated sale values, and one or two other things i have a bad track record of finding apps that I REALLY like (child health records, whiskey tasting, etc) where the developers just unceremoniously end support, even with paid versions. So eventually they stop working, often without warning based on an OS update, and all that data is totally inaccessible. I figure with spreadsheets that’s less of a risk.

Holster Recomendations
I’m on the skinny side and I appreciate the AIWB holsters with the “wing” (e.g. the scorpion ventcore) that presses against the inside of your belt to twist the grip closer to your body.

Fishing question
Not prison, more like a fine haha. But the fishing license is only like $20 (12 if you’re a geezer) so it’s not the end of the world. Or you could fish tidal waters for free that being said I’ve never once been challenged for my fishing or hunting license
-
CCW Recommendations
Blue Alpha has a “Hybrid Belt” that’s stiff af and uses cobra buckles but somehow the female end has been shrunk such that it can fit through standard belt loops. That’s what I use for competition but it would be fine for EDC too worth a look, if nothing else.

Biden Administration Moves to Cut-off Civilian Access to Lake City Plant Ammunition
Obviously the USG has deep pockets (of our taxpayer dollars). But Product Manager - Maneuver Ammunition Systems, who contracts LCAAP, might not. I don’t really know how this would work but I do know defense acquisition is stupid complicated and while the DoD might be under the executive branch, appropriations are still legislative

Biden Administration Moves to Cut-off Civilian Access to Lake City Plant Ammunition
The govt owns LC and pays Winchester/Olin to operate it, under contract. So there is a possibility they could try to push Olin around but they have to respect their agreements…if this commercial revenue stream is protected in Olin’s contract somewhere there’s no way they’ll just let it go and any contract mod is guaranteed to cost the USG dearly

Trigger recommendation
I have a SSA-E, had a SSA and have a G2S. They are in that order, best to worst but the G2S on sale was really the only one that I thought was “worth it” but the other two are objectively awesome EDIT: crap, you clearly said single stage. Never mind then.
