Rep. Raja Krishnamoorthi (D-IL) asked Sturm, Ruger, & Co. to pledge not to sell ammunition that pierces body armor, to which Ruger CEO Christopher Killoy responded that Ruger is not involved in ammunition sales.

The exchange between Krishnamoorthi and Killoy occurred during the Committee on Oversight and Reform’s Wednesday hearing on “practices and profits of gun manufacturers.”
Krishnamoorthi used his time to question witnesses on a variety of issues, the last of which was police officer safety. He asked Daniel Defense CEO Marty Daniel to commit to “not sell a weapon that tears through bulletproof vests” and then moved to the next witness when Daniel talked about his company’s commitment to self-defense.
Krishnamoorthi addressed Killoy, saying, “ assume you won’t sell a weapon that tears through bulletproof vests, will you?”
Killoy responded, “Congressman, with all due respect, the ability to pierce body armor typically relates to the ammunition, not the firearm.”
Krishnamoorthi shot back, “So you will not sell that ammunition either, will you?”
Killoy explained, “Congressman, we do not sell ammunition. We sell firearms in a variety of calibers.”

SOLD Deposit - V4 AutoTrickler + scale

Anyone want to take over my place in line for a V4 AutoTrickler and A&D FX-120i scale? I got impatient and bought something else.

I paid the $50 deposit Feb 26. Looks like it should ship mid/late August.

If someone wants to pay me the $50 deposit now, it’s yours, once it’s ready to ship.

Once I get the email that they need full payment and they’re ready to ship, I’ll reach back out to you for the remaining payment amount (obviously no markup on my end, just whatever I have to pay). My hope is, I can put your shipping address in, and have it ship directly to you. Save some shipping costs. Anyone interested in skipping to the front of the line? PayPal f&f or Venmo

Confused on Manners mini chassis

So I am wanting a Manners stock with mini chassis. What I am confused about is the bottom metal. I spoke to Manners today and was told that bottom metal is not included and would have to be sourced. What I am confused about is on Manners site, they list the mini chassis with bottom metal (screenshot below). If a stock equipped with a mini chassis comes with the chassis but no bottom metal, how do I go about buying the pictured Manners bottom metal?

Biden senile? Pelosi a moron?

I read post after post here in which members of the Biden administration are referred to as idiots, moron, dimwits, ignorant, and the list goes on.

I want to offer a different perspective that is so clear to me I am at a loss as to why others don't see it. It is this.

The current administration in DC is anything but ignorant. They are not dimwits, ignorant, or anything of the sort. These people are highly intelligent and they are much closer to achieving their goal than any Republican administration I've seen in my lifetime.

They're goal is to destroy a free America. What is happening now isn't an accident that is happening because some dummy in Washington DC made a stupid mistake. The current decisions being made in our nation's capital are well calculated and for the purpose of destroying our republic.

Don't be naive in thinking what is happening now is an accident perpetrated by an imbecile that pushed a green button when he meant to push a red button because he was holding the instructions upside down.

It is a grave mistake for us and our country to underestimate these people. The enemy is at the helm.

Are we out-of-love with "underslung" bipods?

Are we out-of-love with "underslung" / apex-over-bore bipods?

Seems like on podcasts circa two years ago, all the recommendations were for having the bipod apex over bore.

Then came the Ckye-pod, taken up by the comp guys, and the TBAC bipod, adopted by the cool guys who didn't want to look like the comp guys. ;)

I get that the Elite Iron is a beast and mostly good for prone.

But there's almost no discussion of the Tier One Evolution bipod, for example.

Have we foresaken the benefits of "underslung" bipods for the two new cool bipods on the block?

Or did apex-over-bore not matter as much as people thought it first did?

Or is everyone who wants apex-over-bore just using Atlas CALs? (I admit I find them ugly and their list of options does my bear-of-little-brain head in ...)

Or am I just missing something entirely here?
