    How important is AW mag compatibility to you? Would you buy a non-AW cut action in 2025?

    https://www.snipershide.com/shooting/threads/m14-magazines-in-a-bolt-gun.35611/ and the Parker Hale. I like the idea of double stack, double feed. Maybe perfect is the enemy of good enough, but I like the mags that came with the AT-X, and the machined aluminum 6BR mags for it too. Someday, I...

    Corporate Funding and Conflicts of Interest A pdf, one of the authors was Philip Zimbardo, the Stanford Prison Experiment guy. In one of his textbooks I read years ago, he speaks of the transition to pharmaceuticals and away from institutionalization. I seem to remember the textbook being...

    What happened to going back to the moon?

    These are always entertaining. I had the good fortune of meeting a bunch of these guys as a child, my father built houses for a bunch of them. Even know a bunch of the low earth orbit people from my adulthood. Not in the business, just neighbors and a few social friends. Jim Irwin impressed...

    Can't remove Muzzle Brake off of Ruger Gunsite

    The nut turns towards the action, and the rest of the brake, off the muzzle end. It is a jam nut. A proper fitting wrench on the nut and something through the big gaping hole in the brake worked on an RPR for me.

    Plane crash At Reagan National

    Yeah, ..., there are multiple levels of normalization of deviance, and groupthink involved in this accident. The practice of allowing the reduced lateral separation when it is not possible to maintain any vertical separation is controlling. All of the rest contributed, but, had there been a...

    Using Tape on the back of a loaded round to check or set headspace. . . .

    It would be interesting to hear from someone involved in the manufacturing of cases what their control process is for the physical properties of the case material. It would seem that, even with very consistent tooling, that at some point, hardness, elasticity, and ductility variations in the...

    I'm sure he is concerned about us Texans

    I was in La Porte, Tx in the 60's and part of the 70's, back then almost all of the adults running stuff had served in WWII and civil defense type stuff was well run and coordinated. An example, 2nd or 3rd grade, a hurricane was bearing down upon us, all of us little ones went to school like...

    House Budget Proposal to remove Tax on Suppressors but not remove it from the NFA

    I actually rode the tread off of some tires. Removing the stem to deflate the innertube was the easiest way to deflate it to change the tire. I would guess the Texas statute is for spike strips, but vague is vague and misinterpreted on a whim. How a tool gets used is up to the person using it.
