Shocker

Where you at? I have an Anderson lower with an ALG trigger, Magpul fixed carbine stock and MOE grip that I don’t need. Would need an FFL in north/central NJ

@eyeinstine gets nothing

I don’t have a ton but I have some 230gr plated .45 and 147gr jacketed 9mm that id share to get a noob something to play around with. If you smile sweetly maybe a little Titegroup and SPP too I don’t really need anything unless someone has a pound of CFE-223 laying around Basking Ridge

I didn’t read this whole thread so maybe this was mentioned when brass cases are fired they expand to seal the chamber. When the pressure drops they spring back which gives clearance for positive extraction that’s why the army has had such trouble using polymer and steel. If we had super tapered cases like the 7.62x39 then maybe but I don’t see any large scale direct swap-out for brass until the chambers and/or rest of the gun are re-designed for it. A case glued to the inside of the chamber sucks for an open bolt gun and might be a disaster for closed bolt

They seem to always be hiring around me but usually as contractors: https://utrs.bamboohr.com/jobs/view.php?id=192 at least to begin with we use CREO but for most intents and purposes it’s the same as solidworks

Don’t those high speed steep shoulder cartridges burn through barrels like crazy?

If you don’t get a response we have a Cricut (CNC cutter) and it might be amusing to give this a shot if you have the vinyl material. Vector graphics are preferred but not required

Those anti freeze faucets with the long-ass stem have always been problematic. If the stem is even slightly off center you need a nice supple gasket to shut off the wAter. When the gasket starts stiffening up it won’t seal any more ive tried disassembling one before to replace the gasket and could never find a replacement (I think mine was tapered). Ended up cutting the whole thing off and replacing it

Thats the kit I started with. upgraded the powder measure, it’s all plastic - staticky and it binds got a digital scale - the balance is slow af got a hand primer and don’t use the prime feature but that’s a small thing i have a progressive now but I still load rifle on the Lee and work up ladder charges when I change powders or what not. If you have components I would unbolt my Lee and let you play with it for a few weeks if you wanted and promise not to break it, lol

That device is a vacuum breaker but I don’t think they’re easily fixed edit: not to say they can’t be fixed, it’s just usually easy enough to throw on a new hose bib

Virtual tours are all the rage now. Just yesterday my kids toured the Met, the Louvre and the Guggenheim all in one day

Need fulfilled @Sonnylee is the man

I kept my .40’s around because I can shoot USPSA major with factory ammo and make my own bunny fart loads to shoot production and IDPA

It will be neat paying that renewal bill with no usage for months and still months to come

Without knowing your criteria, I can tell you I have an Xisico (Chinese RWS rip-off) that’s pretty accurate and can put a .22 pellet clear through two steel soup cans i would have sprung for the real RWS but I knew I’d shoot it so rarely I couldn’t justify

I have nothing to add, I just think @raz-0's masterful blend of mocking, berating and providing valuable information is truly beautiful *wipes tear*

154CM? S30V?

It was my understanding that they made the .380 into "EZ" by using a locked breech (versus everyone else's blowback .380's) so the recoil spring didn't have to be so stiff. But almost everyone makes locked breech 9mm now (lets set aside Hi Point for now) so I wonder where the "EZ-ness" comes from

CNJFO here as well just remember if you shop with the app - you can fill your cart as usual but you HAVE to check out with a browser at smile.amazon.com or the smile BS won’t happen EDIT: it works in the app now but you have to set your preferences

Xtreme was my go-to until they restructured their shipping fees and priced themselves way above their competitors. I'd go back if they're competitive again, if for nothing else than not having to re-develop any load recipes.

Arc'teryx Phase AR or Satoro AR for your base layer Horrifyingly expensive but your nips will be toasty all day long. But as mentioned, you need some sort of shell on top to block wind

My background check email came back after three days just recently (one of my references was dilly-dallying though). But I can tell you my local PD will sit on it for several weeks once it's complete from NJSP.

This is mine https://www.511tactical.com/range-ready-bag.html I wouldn't have paid $100 for it but it was a gift.

I see a lot of high ASKING prices but those for-sale ads tend to stick around unsold. Maybe there are too many panic-buy guns out there that people are embarrassed to take a loss on But yes as @Underdog said, our comrades in Trenton have thrown a wrench in the normal free market price controls

PSA has been selling 1.0 Shields at $250 forever, I had assumed they bought a few truckloads that they're sitting on ever since the 2.0's came out. But what do I know
