Trump may offer money and a free plane ticket to illegals to self deport.

I'm not wild about bribing criminals, thats like countries paying the Vikings or Mongols not to attack them, and a sign of weakness. I don't like it at all.

However, it might be cheaper and more realistic than having ICE round them up because at the current rate, they're not being captured and deported at near the rate they're reproducing and multiplying.

I'm just afraid it will be large amounts of money spent with half-ass results. How about arrest illegals and confiscate and sell everything they own as an incentive to leave on their own.

Suppressor and BC

Dumb question about cans and BC, but wanted to ask before I head out and do something stupid.

Will a can, properly installed and sized, have any affect on the BC of a bullet? I'm hoping to get time on the AB mobile lab here soon at a match and want to get a CDM for a gun I'll be shooting 95% suppressed, but it's not the gun I'm shooting in the match so my can will be on that match gun. Hoping to avoid switching things around match day if there's no need.

Thinking about "chipping" your pet? Look what it did to ours!

Thinking about getting your pet "chipped?" This is what it did to our dog when we got her chipped two weeks ago. This is what it looked like one day after we discovered it and began treating the abscess. Of course, we discovered it festering under her long hair on a Sunday, so that required a trip to the emergency vet clinic. I'm all for the idea of chipping, but in practice, it seems to have some flaws. Common sense dictates that when you inject something into your body that doesn't belong there, you body may reject it unless it was done under ideal conditions. Of course, vets don't tell you this while they push this wonderful new innovation in pet ownership. As a matter of fact, the vets who saw this told us they have never seen anything like this before. (Keep in mind, these are the people who make money selling this procedure.)

Though I'm not a vet, I would suggest that before you decide to expose your pet to this, you start asking questions of your vet and see if they are honest with you about it. Also, shave the small area around where the chip will be inserted so you can monitor the area for problems.

We were finally told that this could even happen months to years after the chip was inserted, and if the chip had to be removed, it was a nasty procedure. Hmmm.. I wonder how they new this?

SOLD (WTS) Sphur SICS Chassis System - REM 700 SA - Two-tone Cerakote

This was one of my early cerakote projects - a two tone grey. The chassis has some pitting in to because I left it in the solvent too long. With that in mind, it's an awesome chassis at a very reasonable price. Let me know if you have any questions.

Took my dad shooting this weekend.

I hauled my dad along this weekend to go shoot some rifles out past 1000 yards. He had some pretty good success with it. His first time past 1000 yards and probably his 3rd time past 500. I got to see a couple of my good buddies that I like to shoot with as well. The wind was swirling and gusting 12-16 mph. Just thought I would share with the group. This is the first group he shot at 1776 yards.

MIG Welder Questions

I am shopping around for a small MIG Welder and thought I should ask some questions along the way.

I know little to nothing about welding but I have done a very little bit of stick welding before. I made some target stands and maybe some other small things but that's it. Hopefully I can get some feedback and learn more from people in the know as I go along.

So far I am thinking about a 120V input flux core MIG Welder. They are fairly cheap in some places but honestly I am not super price sensitive. That said I don't want an expensive machine that gets used 3-4 times per year.

The reason for the flux core is that I won't have to worry about buying gas and all that. My understanding is that the flux creates its own shielding which is similar to stick welding in that regard. Other than that it's generally a plug and play system (I think).

Just for conversation sake let's say I put a price cap of say $500. Obviously I am not talking about top of the heap equipment.

The reason for the 120V is that I can take it anywhere that I can get an extension cord to which would be kind of nice. At least that's my thinking.

Other than those two things, and keeping that in mind, what would the limitations be for a system like that? What are some features that I should look for in a machine?

With a welder like that it's generally going to be for odd jobs and projects that I have. That said what are the limitations on what types of metals I could weld up and more importantly the thickness of said metal? I probably won't be welding anything super thick but the probability of welding thinner things is much more possible.

Any advice or corrections will be welcome.
