I have one currently on my AR-10 pattern 6.5. IMO perfectly legal.

Well I had ordered a Wilson Combat 14.7" barrel and had them "armor tuff" coat it in burnt bronze. Looks awesome on the gun but I simply took for granted that it would have 1/2x24 threads. Turns out this model (with 1:7 twist) was the only 5.56 they made with 5/8x24 threads. So now I have to wait for a new muzzle brake to get here so I can have it pinned before finishing this thing. Will be going with another surefire but in .270 cal. Was the smallest brake with 5/8 threads I could fine.

Barrel should be here today.

How does it look for Nov? are there enough local seats up for re-election for conservatives to take a majority?

Actually, yes. Noticed much more activity this year around our home. Wonder if it's the mild winter we had? We see more of everything this summer including larger animals as well.

Upper and handguard finally showed up! Have to travel for a few days but will start building this when I get back.

No, NICS is separate from your permit. A NICS check must be run at point of sale for each purchase.

NJ NICS system at its finest. Still have to run a NICS for each purchase even with a P2P. I put one in on Saturday AM, didn't come back until this morning. And now i've added a PPQ to the collection.

Not yet, still waiting on the upper/handguard from Radian. It was supposed to be a 4 week lead time but was advised covid increased that. Going on 7 weeks now. Hopefully soon, everything else is pretty much here.

I'd definitely put a few more rounds through it before making a decision. Walther makes a great gun but it's really up to your preference especially when it's your money and your permits. The Shadow 2 has been an amazing gun but I prefer a striker fired gun for home defense. My Shadow has been running strong for the last year and a half with many rounds fired. It has a couple FTE when the extractor gets a little too dirty.

I've tried it. Works okay but IMO not as good as some others. It's still hard to beat Balistol as long as the smell doesn't bother you.

Perfect! I think we all could use the chance to brush the rust off.

Any matches planned for the summer? Wondering if this will be brought back this year but haven't seen any updates on their FB page or website.

Another step back in VA. https://www.washingtonpost.com/local/alexandria-bans-guns-on-city-property/2020/06/21/92288a62-b3e5-11ea-9a1d-d3db1cbe07ce_story.html

This!

She makes some good points.

So what they are up to now? An enforcement agency writing more laws when they have no legislative power? https://www.guns.com/news/2020/06/18/lawmakers-to-atf-pump-the-brakes-on-banning-braces

Wrote to the DOJ twice and called their hotline to report murphy (lowercase intended) a few times as well. My wife did the same and even mailed a letter to them. Some complaints in relation to the state's covid response fining protest organizers as well as 2A issues when stores were closed down. Hopefully they get flooded.

As a dog person (obviously, see avatar) this is very sad to hear. But as some have touched on already... pitbulls are not a "killer" breed of dog. Despite what they have been forced to do by people, they are an amazing breed and one of the best pets society could have. Shit people create shit dogs and that usually leads to tragic endings. The folks here salivating at the thought of gouging out there eyes and killing the dog are disappointing beyond words. I don't care what breed you have or what your preconceived beliefs of breed behavior are, there is far more science and education out there proving it is our (human) interaction that creates the issues, not the breed. I feel terrible for the child... and now also for the subjective view of the breed as a result.

My wife and I were at the pistol range and 100 yard range on Sunday sharing a port (alternate turns shooting). No issues, and was chatting with the RO's, but the place was far from crowded also.

I have two savior cases that i've been really happy with. Great value on a quality bag.

Light clean (field strip) after each trip to the range. I don't go too crazy with it, just get most of the crud out and inspect everything for function and integrity. Everything gets the occasional deep clean after several range trips add up on them. Or during pandemics..... deep clean everything twice while waiting for ranges to open.

I was there around 11:30 or so. Had the pistol range to myself most of the time except for one other guy towards the end. Light rain and a nice day shooting. On the way out it looked like the 100 yard range had about 3 - 4 members.

And if we're on our very best behavior they might just raise it to 30! How generous of the king would that be.
