Two Arabs boarded a flight from Washington to New York. One sat in the window seat, the other in the middle seat. Just before take-off a little Israeli guy got on and took the aisle seat next to the Arabs. He kicked off his shoes, wiggled his toes and was just settling in when the Arab in the window seat said, “I think I’ll go up and get a Coke.” “No problem,” said the Israeli, “Stay there, I’ll get it for you.” While he was gone, the Arab picked up the Israeli’s shoe and spat in it. When the Israeli returned with the Coke, the other Arab said, “That looks good. I think I’ll have one too.” Again, the Israeli obligingly went to fetch it, and while he was gone the Arab picked up the other shoe and spat in it too. The Israeli returned with the coke, and they all sat back and enjoyed the short flight to New York. As the plane was landing the Israeli slipped his feet into his shoes and knew immediately what had happened. “Acchh, how long must this go on?” he asked. “This enmity between our people…this hatred…this animosity…this spitting in shoes and pissing in cokes?”

Night Vision for an “average Joe”?
Yes and no. I've been flirting with buying a thermal scope for a couple of years. The prices have come down quite a bit over the past 5 years and will come down even more when ATN or FLIR get their hands on more advanced tech. You can get what is now considered a crappy scope for well under $2,000.00, but that same scope 10 years ago probably sold for 7 grand. I'm waiting for the next best thing to emerge so I can jump on a thermal scope that has a 640 sensor, at least 60fps, and at least a 40mm objective.

10/19 clays and bbq meetup
In, with probable +1 Bringing all the usual goodies, Citori, Shockwave, 870, and the Stevens 311A @Ray Ray, Marlin 39D and 25N, clays, ammo, Peeps and other targets, misc sundries. If I stay overnight, I'll do breakfast again. PEC, waffles, eggs any style, (hopefully I'll remember to bring ALL the waffle ingredients this time). Depends on how far along the kitchen remodel is. EDIT: To be clear, I'm not bringing a Ray Ray with me, just letting him know the 311A will be there.

Trump Admin Is Considering Using Amazon Echo And Apple Watch To Determine If Citizens Should Own A Gun
Every giant corporation has a front door, and a back door. I guarantee you, Government agencies and probably other corps too, are doing bidniz on the sly. Hey buddy, so I hear you are a data analyst over at Google, I'm just thinking out loud here, but, boy, I'd pay a million dollars for x, y and z, I really really need to get that data. China is stealing some of our tech with hacking, but far more common is to bribe people into selling proprietary tech and information.

buffer extention tube on rifle length gas
The buffer tube extension is part of the gas system, if you mess with that, you can expect problems. The distance between the chamber and the gas port determines the timing of the system. The distance also impacts pressure. Gas port distance, gas port size, buffer weight, extension tube length (length of buffer travel) have all been thoughtfully calculated to facilitate proper operation. You can probably get out of spec parts to cycle with some finagling, but it will likely cause reliability problems. Magpul has some very nice fixed rifle stocks that are adjustable, the USGI A2 stock is actually pretty nice too. Ace makes a great skeleton stock. Maybe look at some of those options before you Rube Goldberg a rifle. Magpul PRS and Ace Skeleton

- PORK ROLL or TAYLOR HAM!?
first of all,it goes egg-cheese meat. Second, Hard roll, not an english muffin. That looks like a poor facsimile of an egg Mc Muffin. Third, eggs over easy. Lastly, you should have browned the pork roll more and the muffin less. And, finally, where's mine? I hope you made enough for all of us. I mean, ya did it wrong, but I'd still eat it.- 10th Circuit Takes a Whizz in Dems Cornflakes.
Not closed minded my friend. It's just stating the facts, whether you or I like it, or not.. Conservatives do NOT loose anything, because NOTHING has changed. It was the Dems that are looking to force Electors to vote a certain way ( national popular vote). Dems are trying to leverage the tyranny of the majority with the pact, and hypothetically award the electoral votes to a Dem when a Republican has won a state. If a state is won by a republican with 80% of the vote, and an Elector gave the votes to someone else, there would be lawsuits on top of lawsuits, on top of lawsuits. It is within the Elector's powers to do that, but they do not have the final word. I stand on what I said. Conservatives loose nothing because nothing has changed. The Dems have "created" nothing.- 10th Circuit Takes a Whizz in Dems Cornflakes.
the ruling does not "create a system". The EC system has existed like this since the beginning. Conservatives loose nothing with the ruling, progressive libtards that want to game the system loose something because they cannot force the Electors to do their evil bidding.- PORK ROLL or TAYLOR HAM!?
That's what Zeke's parents said when they caught him with his sausage in the New Jersey sausage. Interesting fact. Pound for pound, steak costs about the same, or less, than pork roll.- Suppressors for NJ Residents
- 10th Circuit Takes a Whizz in Dems Cornflakes.
From Daily Wire. The article explains how the Dummycrats scheme to game the electoral system by awarding electoral collage votes to the national popular vote winner, and not necessarily the states popular vote winner, how the plan is doomed, doa, stillborn, impotent, oh, and also unconstitutional. They got a proper beat down by the 10th Circuit. This is not over yet.- NFA Picture Thread
Blowing through $15 - $25 worth of ammo in just a few seconds looks like great fun, but, feeding that child can bankrupt you. One thing I think would be a riot to own and shoot are the tiny 22lr gatling guns. As long as they are hand crank only, they are not NFA. I've always wondered... How many full auto/select fire NFA guns are in the hands of multi millionaires, and how many are owned by regular folk. I bet there are more NFA guns in mansions than there are in modest single family homes.- NFA Picture Thread

- NJ Extreme Risk Objective
I would like to see some NJ statistics where police wanted to remove firearms and impound a FID, they were unable to, and a firearms related crime was subsequently committed. I bet the stats will be so low, an actuary would barely notice any impact. Cops should be able to take guns away from nut jobs and people with anger management issues, but there needs to be due process. Cops already have the tools they need to do this, probable cause comes to mind. Just because does not fly.

Modern Medical Miracles A married couple was in a terrible accident where the woman's face was severely burned. The doctor told the husband that they couldn't graft any skin from her body because she was too skinny. So the husband offered to donate some of his own skin. However, the only skin on his body that the doctor felt was suitable would have to come from his buttocks. The husband and wife agreed that they would tell no one about where the skin came from, and requested that the doctor also honor their secret. After all, this was a very delicate matter. After the surgery was completed, everyone was astounded at the woman's new beauty. She looked more beautiful than she ever had before! All her friends and relatives just went on and on about her youthful beauty! One day, she was alone with her husband, and she was overcome with emotion at his sacrifice. She said, "Dear, I just want to thank you for everything you did for me. There is no way I could ever repay you." "My darling," he replied, "I get all the thanks I need every time I see your mother kiss you on the cheek."- Daily humor thread
