It's a unique pattern.

Just ordered some fabric (NYCO 50/50) that I want to make into a uniform. 1. Anyone know where I can get a tailor or send the material? 2. What's a good uniform to make a duplicate of (ACU/BDU/5.11/Helikon cut)? 3. How much do you think it will be?

Well lets face it. NYC is the number one target around the world. As long as one nuke (from Russia, to ISIS, to anyone with a grudge) exists with NYC in the crosshairs, none of us are truly safe.

As would many who are familiar with such a kit. But considering mass transit conditions (full train cars and buses are extremely common), I would not be comfortable about the chance of a ND. Hell, the amount of people walking in a common sidewalk in Manhattan with that on makes me feel odd.

You didn't see the squad or two of National Guard in there? Also, do as I do, but I'm sure you can do more: I commute almost daily, at the very least I carry body armor and a high output metal pocket flashlight. Pepper spray is also legal to carry.

New rifle, the Survival RDB. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X-eveibwmqQ First and last 5 minutes seem the most relevant. Your thoughts?

It's not like some CTA will happen after election day.

I am curious if the same polymer that Magpul uses can be used in this capacity.

I concur. The JLTV alone is WAAAAYY heavier than any Humvee, but they still expect to fit the same amount onto a ship. They have to compensate somehow.

I am curious on how this works. Do graduates become deputies, auxiliary, actual police or get granted CCW?

It's almost Halloween, and I'm craving a zombie flick. I still haven't watched Range 15, and even though it's available via Amazon, I'd rather have the movie theater experience. So imho, it would be the perfect thing to experience around Halloween. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ss63UOd4P84 The problem is that no one "hosts" Range 15 via Tugg, and in order to do host via Tugg, a set number of tickets must be sold (if the minimum number is not sold, refunds are given to all who purchased via Tugg). I guess it's a better Kickstarter type thing for movie theaters. So if this were to be a reality, people with connections to veterans (VFW/American Legion), action star fans, and/or Zombie flick fans would be best to host. Is there an interest in such an event? And if so is anyone willing to play host?

Is there anyway to "rent" an optic? It seems the only way to see if an optic works well/properly on a rifle setup is after you shell an insane amount of cash.

I'm a moderate, and I try my best not to be prejudicial. Many times I've been proven wrong about a person after actually getting to know them. I'm abit worried, and unsure if I'm just being paranoid because it's just that time of year again (9-11). But I'm curious on what other people's reaction should be. What I saw: Was in Woodbridge's Dick's this weekend, saw a guy (in obvious religious garb) with two 420 cases of Federal ammo with a goofy look on his face walking out. Didn't think much of it until recently (again, I know good people that's surprised me). Hope it's nothing. P.S. Please delete if this thread if this devolves into a flamewar please.

Also WHERE?!?

Damn it! Cabela's Dutch Ovens are made in China

Cast Iron cook-off?

Awhile back I've purchased my first shipment of bulk ammunition which happened to be Freedom Munitions. Shot about hundred rounds of it without not much of a problem (with a hasty inspection). Found one dented round that looked risky. I know the basics. Brass looks decent, no 300 Blackout. While organizing them into stripper clips, though I found 2 other rounds that looked iffy. I may post pics. What exactly does a bad reload look like externally? Also, has any other reviews/info on FM?

Cast iron products on sale: http://m.dickssportinggoods.com/product/index.jsp?productId=4022411 Also, I just started looking at these after I heard Lodge is starting to discontinue production to some of their models. How often do they have this kind of sale?

From the product description: "Produced as training ammunition for a major US Federal law enforcement agency, the unique purple brass shellcasing provides immediate visual reference for range officers. The brass casing on this ammo features a special treatment rendering it purple. Completely reloadable and function exactly as standard brass casings." So it should be fine.

Awesome! Now I'm really thinking about buying a case.

May I suggest an addition of:

So... Why the purple?

Either way, I'm thankful for all the helpful information. I can now organize easier and honestly say "I'm stocking up for training."

Is still this round still as lethal as actual ammunition (If not more so)?
