I put a small crimp in it to secure it, but I wouldn't call it a heavy one. I didn't want to disfigure the bullet too much. I'll check tomorrow to see if the reloads I haven't thrown in a magazine are still at 2.800". If the ones from the mag are different, then I'll know that the bullets...
Can anyone clue me in on why my M1A reloads are discharging intermittently? My hunch is that it is because my OAL is too short which stops the firing pin from reaching the primer, but I'm not 100%. In most misfires, there is no evidence of a primer strike. In a few, there were light primer...
We are talking about ISIS. The Islamic State. Who are you talking about? I'm not afraid of an invasion from the Middle East, I'm afraid of compromising our reputation as a country who is strong and who will do what it takes to defend its citizens.
We need to stop acting like this group is just...
Screw boots on the ground! Put nukes on the ground! We need to stop dancing around what war is... we need to decimate them and the lands in which they derive power from. Send a message that if they want the full might of the US, then they will get it.
We don't need to eradicate them with...
I vote to send our own message with a couple of nukes into the cities they've already established a "caliphate" in. If we break their backs by obliterating their strongholds, I'm sure the Kurds, the Iraqi Army, and the Syrian Loyalists wouldn't mind doing sweep up duty. Once we're done, we can...
Insureyourself actually hooked me up with several pounds of Varget. He sold them to me at a fair price and given that Varget is tough to find these days, I can honestly say that he is a stand up member who is not here just to make money, but to be part of a community.
Just wanted to give him a...
2 pounds should hold me off plenty if you can spare some... how much would you be looking fetch for it?
Edit: You know what... I'll take 3 pounds if you'll spare it.
So recently, I've been on this night vision kick. I really want a weapon mounted night vision device for my AR-SBR. Those PVS-14's are sure nice! I wish I had $3500 to just throw into an optic.
I've got a couple of ideas!
1) Adopt it, clean it up, and make it an OSA private range.
or
2) Close it on random weekends and whoever comes out to shoot gets trapped by LEO to spend the day cleaning instead. I'd love to see people's reactions to that...
I think we are probably all talking about the same guy at Banner Rd. Before I left, I asked him if he was raising an army... he just gave me a dumb look and said, "I'm just bored and this is a good way to pass time"
I went to the range today and I swear, I was asked 3 separate times if I was going to keep my brass.
Can I PLEASE shoot in peace without wondering if some brass ninja is going to come by and steal my brass? I swear, one of the guys there was only there to pick up brass for 2 hours +. He wasn't...
The thing I'm most frustrated about is that firearms was a hobby for me. I could buy/sell/trade firearms on an order of $700 for an AR. Now I'm too afraid to sell much because I'm afraid once it's gone, I won't be able to find what I want at a reasonable price. I don't make enough money to be...
And regardless if you have your Wyatt Earp 1.0s draw. He's still going to stab you for 1.0 seconds and before you even get a shot off. Then he's going to run off with a shiny new desert eagle. I'm not arguing it takes more time to chamber a round. But does it matter if someone has the jump on...
Well if you want to talk about unlikelihoods, then why do we carry a concealed weapon? I bet the amount of people that get attacked every day vs the amount of people in the US is probably less than 1% also. I've always been under the mindset of "prepare for the worst, hope for the best" and that...
