I got a wrench. It's really not to complicated.

Another home invasion
Holy hell. I'm skeptical of this only because its hard to believe anyone could be so monumentally inept to think that it would be OK to do that. If it indeed happened the way the plantiff accuses, I hope they crucify these mongoloids.

would you use a 1911 for home defense?
I personally have a 1911 loaded next to my bed just because its easier than having my rifle there. That said my rifle is locked up no more than 5 steps away. Situation would dictate what I'll use.

Jon, I tried out the benchmade one on their direct site and it was accepted. I haven't gone through each one.

Can a Factory pinned and weld be removed?
Are you getting a complete rifle or just an upper? If its just an upper (I remember you were looking for one) you can just have it sent to your ffl WITHOUT it being pinned. It's not technically NFA until it gets near your lower receiver. I did this with my BCM upper without issue. ETA: If absolutely necessary it can be done, I spoke to a few local smiths who gave me the impression they had done it before with no problem

Chest rigs
Got a few things in today, most notable was the TT magna mag pouch. I like the small magnets that they sew into the pouch to keep your mags in place even with an open top. You can still use a velcro tab over the mag if you want extra retention but they seem to hold my 1911 mags quite nicely. I paid the 2 double m4 mag pouches but it seems they are on back order, so I asked if they could substitute a single and triple instead. Waiting for a reply. Also got the TAG hydro pouch, and a set of Diamondback Tactical pouches I found on another forum for cheap. Came with 2 "pistol mag" pouches that will hold my knife and a flashlight, and a large utility pouch. Not sure if I'm going to use the utility on the rig, as it seems to get in the way where ever I put it. I'm not going to put it in the front and if I put it on either side, I'm afraid that it will get in the way my pistol or mag draws.

Beer.
I would say a brooklyn lager/yeungling type. I'm not one for craft beer (which this isn't) but its got waaaaay more taste than your bud or coors light Bleh.
-
Beer.
Coors I believe. 5.5% It's a lager in the vein of yeungling but definitely has a distinctive taste. I'm no beer snob so its hard for me to express in words.

Beer.
Do I have your attention now? I just wanted to see if anyone has tried Batch 19 I was in my local liquor retail establishment and decided to try this and the new Third Shift Lagers. I thought it was pretty cool that they advertised this as a "pre prohibition" style lager, and that they found the recipe in the basement of the brewery. I have to say I really like the Batch 19. I don't mind Third Shift but I prefer my "go to" Yuengling if it came down to it. Anyone else?

Black Rain Ordance Fallout 15
Yikes, they seem dumb expensive. eta: I'd also like some more info on the specs. I have to assume for that kinda money they are including a nickel boron m16 bolt carrier, mpi bolt, m4 ramps etc etc.. Would just like to know before getting a 2-3k rifle to my door.

Ahhh I see how the bfg holder works now. I'm gonna pick that one up. That's how I envisioned it in my head. I can Still adjust the bungee to be a little tighter if needed. Thanks man

Not 100% sure what you mean here. Are you saying to pull the bungee down to the side and tighten it so it will still put pressure on the mag, keeping it in place?

When I said double mag pouch I meant (2) single cells in a two wide configuration giving me 4x1 mags across my chest. Thanks for the info.
