Sniper

Big Bird's word of the Week? So, what made him "light up" (this should be good).

Actually they do, they will also chirp for a while to let you know to replace the battery. Only if you ignore that chirping for quite a while (or take the battery out, a normal occurrence), will the battery finally die.

That's a great reminder for everyone. It's exactly what I've done with old extinguishers with my family. Everyone needs to experience it so if it ever happens, they'll know what to do.

Come on, first, that guy must of had some sort of flammable liquid on his pants, or maybe a butane lighter in his pocket that got hit. Go watch the video. Second, if he complied with the security guards, he wouldn't have gotten Tased. See how easy that is!

This is true, as most people who die in fires actually die from smoke inhalation, not the actual flames. In trying to fight the fire, you can get quickly overcome from smoke and fumes. In every body that we pulled out of a burning building, it was the smoke that got them. Also true, they need the concentrated gas to help pinpoint the source, versus having to check each appliance after the house was ventilated. Definitely true. I went through CERT training last year, and part of it was training with a fire extinguisher. Watching the class fumble around trying to put out a small fire, was scary and comical, all at the same time.

It doesn't rain all the time.

Actually, they do run in the rain:

One week, and the real fun starts!

Actually, it depends, from what I read, if you're just a gun owner, then no. But, if you have a CCW, it's allowed. Not sure if this guy was a legal CCW holder, though. http://www.osba.org/Resources/Article/Legal/Guns_in_schools_FAQ.aspx

This guy comes to his daughter's middle school carrying a handgun and ammo because of an issue with his ex-wife and the transfer of his daughter. What the heck is the world coming to? These guys walk among us. USA –-(Ammoland.com)- Charles Landeros, 30, was fatally shot in the head by officer Steve Timm at the middle school of his daughter. At the time of the shooting, the leader of the Antifa militant group “Red Arm” and founder of “Community Armed Self-Defense” was at the middle school resisting arrest. Landeros was not only a leader in the Far-left militant group out of Eugene, Oregon, but he also was the chief firearms instructor for the organizations. The stated mission of the group is to, “defend the oppressed.” School officials asked Landeros to leave the property when he refused to leave the grounds the school staff called a resource officer. Officer Steve Timm responded to the call and once again requested Landeros to leave immediately or face arrest for trespassing and disorderly conduct. He still refused to leave, so Officer Timm called Officer Aaron Johns for back up. The two officers tried to get Landeros out of the school, but Landeros became combative. It was at this point where the officers informed the member of Antifa that he was under arrest. Landeros pulled out a 9mm handgun and fired two shots at the officers. Officer Johns tried to wrestle the gun away from Landeros. When the two hit the floor struggling for the firearm Officer Timm fired the fatal shot to the head of Landeros killing him instantly. https://www.ammoland.com/2019/01/antifa-member-killed-by-police-after-opening-fire-on-officers-video/#ixzz5eKUixAce Youtube bodycam video from both officers at that link.

It's not a Greenday answer, just because you don't agree. I would never be in that hypothetical situation, so it's a non-starter and something I wouldn't even need to address or consider. My AR would be like my third go-to choice, with other preferred items ready first.

Hope it looks like this when you get done with the customization:

How about neither. I that case, I grab a handgun (or two), as it will be a close encounter, and trying to swing a rifle around corners in the house is less than ideal.

In between there you can also consider a handgun caliber carbine in 9mm or .40. That can fit between the AR and the 10/22 for inside of 100 yds.

That's what I do with mine when I do battery changes every Spring and Fall. I vacuum them and bring in my tank of air and blow them out. I also write the date on each one when I buy and install them, and at approx. the 5 year point, I replace them.

Look at it as a training session. ANY firearm can have a feed issue, even your most trusted ones. So part of preparation and training is the ability to clear the issue and get back on target. If that's not part of your regular practice, you're NOT ready for home defense.

You're forgetting to add any medical, charity or mortgage interest into the equation. SALT is like 15K, so that's 5K gone plus the 8K gone.

Adjusted gross was up a little from last year, no AMT and no kids, just me and wifey (I wish I could claim the dog). Nothing else out of normal.

Yep, plus I was trying to use the crystal ball, if one of these stupid registration laws were passed, this would be the one to register along with the 15 round LCM, then I would have the same LCM to use in the other unknown....... who knows what crap Murphy will try and pass next.

I did one recently, a Freedom upper and popped it on a Anderson lower. Figured it would be a throw-away AR, if needed. Trigger was a little funky, so I threw in a LaRue trigger, big difference. Why not, it makes rounds go bang? Will a "tweaker" know the difference at 2 AM?

Ha ha ha ha ha... we're all on some type of list, why worry about the black helicopters or black SUVs. BTW Maks, check your inbox.

One of my favorites!

It's not suppose to be a kid or dog car.

Lighten up Francis, I was agreeing with your original post. A couple of well motivated groups could completely paralyze a urban area. Hmmm, sounds just like a recent discussion here regarding H.D. and weapon lights.
