Here is the developer http://visarts.ucsd.edu/faculty/brett-stalbaum We need to fill his mailbox with our 2 cents.

Looks like liberals have taken the next step to reaching their goal of a communist society. I saw this on the news last night and found the article this morning, this is taking rating on your neighbor to the extreme. Apparently some psycho created an app were other liberal idiots can mark the geographical location, on a map I presume, of whomever they consider to be "Unsafe Gun Owners". This bull$hit has gone way too far. I think we need to find out who the developers are and mark their houses on their own map. http://www.bizpacreview.com/2013/07/12/intrusive-new-tattletale-app-puts-gun-owners-homes-in-crosshairs-79535

Thanks, I will check them out.

I have been trying to find out if body armor is legal for civilians to own and can't come to a definative conclusion. Everywhere I have read says that body armor is legal as long as it's not used in the commision of a crime. Ok, makes sense. But every website I go to states that you must be LE, military or security to purchase it. If it is legal why can't it be purchased online?

those who save anything on cloud storage is just asking for personal information to be stolen. Cloud storage is just a fancy marketing term for centralized server storage. When you put your information there you lose all control of it.

"because such condition changes the vision and light transmission properties of the glazing in areas where driver visibility shall not be obscured or obstructed". So isn't this a safety issue? Why is are police vehicles exempt?

I'm confused, window tint is illegal? Is that why every single unmarked state police cruiser on the parkway has tinted windows front and back???

This happenned to me as well, it was because of the app store. In the older android OS versions it only allowed the download of large apps via wifi, with the newer version you actually have the ability to turn that restriction off. When I first logged into google with my new S4 it started downloading all of the apps I had purchased earlier and used up 75% of my data in the first hour.

with t-mobile if you get the 2gb plan, tethering is free. with the 4gb plan you get 500mb of tethring free.

you can control your cablebox and tivo with the iphone via the wifi only. The gs4 has an infrared transmitter and can control just about any infrared enabled device including tv, dvd player, cable box, etc... via the infrared.

Definately Galaxy S4. My wife has the iphone 5 and I have the Galaxy S4, it's night and day. The S4 has a bigger brighter screen, longer battery life, faster processor and more ram, excepts external micro SD cards up to 64gb, Has a 13mp camera. The other day my phone and my wifes phone were lying on the table outside under the sun and her iphone 5 overheated and turned off, my phone had no issues. Also, if you are on t-mobile, the iphone 5 does not support wifi calling.

I didn't have problems, I just found it a pita to clean. I am extremely lazy and don't like to clean my guns often, as a matter of fact, I have 6 extremely filthy guns roght now sitting in the safe, they haven't been cleaned in over 6 months. switching to piston was simply a matter of personal convenience for me, however, except for the price, I have not experienced any of the cons mentioned for a piston system.

Personally, for me it's easier to clean the carbon build-up in the gas block and piston rod than to clean the carbon build-up from the bolt. Just lazy I guess.

I have a stag model 8 and I love it. cleaning it is a breeze, almost no carbon build up in on the BCG. put over 500(at different times) rounds thru it without cleaning between trips to the range and not a single hickup. The only problem I have is that no body makes a .22 conversion kit that will work with piston ARs.

Thanks for the great advise, it's hard to find ammo now. At this point I just want to get a feel for the gun that is why I am grabbing whatever is available. I will definately be buying quality ammo in the near future. But at this time I just want to shoot it.

That's fine, just got my .308 savage and no trying to find something to feed it. Cabelas has wwb 7.62 nato for $20.99 in stock

Can I use 7.62x51 ammo in a .308 rifle?

I guess I am one of the lucky ones as far as family goes. My grandparents where jews in the soviet union diring WWII so my entire family understands the importance of guns. I do have a lot of close friends who hate guns, and I am slowly converting them one at a time, 3 down 4 to go. But I never use the 2A argument, I always say it's fun, its to protect my family and if someone says "why do yuou need guns" I come back with "why do you need that big house" or "why do you meec that BMW", etc... Its not about need, its about want.

Looks like I'm going with the 308, purchasing a savage 16 from another board member.

got discauraged when I saw the price for ammo.

If I had 10k to spend I would get it in a heart beat. If only I can figure out how to mount it to the roof a my VW passat .

I'm not in that mindset, I just wanted a comparison to something that I have shot, but I get your point.

So from what I gather, from an economical standpoint, the .308 is my best choice, at least for now. And since I won't be taking down ELK at 400 yds anytime soon any of the 300 magnums are overkill.

how would you compare, if possible, the recoil of 300 rum or 300 winmag to 12g 3" slug.

What do you think about the Mossberg 4x4 with a 24" fluted barrel? I love my mossberg shotties but how are they with rifles?
