So, I've searched and have not found a definitive answer. I have a dead air sandman that I use on numerous weapons. I have qd brakes on said rifles.

After extended sessions on ANY of the rifles, the suppressor almost seems welded on. Question 1: what cleaning/maintenance do I need to do to the can? Question 2: Should I lube the ratcheting portion of the can, and if so, what product should I use?

I have used the search function and have literally read all the posts on first builds, etc. so I'm just gonna post my thoughts on my first potential bolt action build. I have built numerous ARs in the past so I like the option of building a bolt action but just need some help from the experts. I'm looking at a 6.5 Creedmoor build. That seems to be the most well-rounded option for a first build? Rifle would be used for plinking and target practice and potentially PRS in the future.

Origin- $900 seems like the obvious answer. Probably best bang for the buck proven option available for sub $1k. The only question/concern I have on the Origin is the bolt throw of 90 degrees. I've read a 90 degree throw can sometimes bind up with the scope? Is this really an issue or am I overthinking this? I feel like I'd prefer a shorter throw but don't know any better.

TL3- $1300 this is probably what I'd prefer but it's about $400 more than the Origin. I think they are 60 degree throws? I probably don't need all the other bells and whistles and wouldn't even know the differences. Not doing any barrel swaps either.

Kelbly Prometheus- $1000 seems like a great option and can be had around $1k at Brownells at the moment. Seems Kelbly's has a good reputation and are well respected but maybe not the current darling like some others?

ARC CDG- $900 this thing looks amazing on paper but for some reason it makes me nervous at the same time. Not sure what else to say about it. LOL

Aero Solus- $700 man, talk about a polarizing brand. One minute I want to just buy the action and build around it with a good (non Aero) pre-fit barrel and chassis but it's still an Aero product at the end of the day and I'm not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing. You really can't argue with the price and it's a 60 degree throw.


I really want something, at least for my first build, to be pretty plug and play. I think all the options I listed fit into that category with pre-fit barrel and chassis options. Probably looking at a Proof pre-fit with an MDT or MPA chassis and TT trigger.

Any other options I'm missing?

Thanks in advance!

Picked this ole girl up a few weeks back. I love it. I think it has aged perfectly. Not going to change anything about it. I couldn't find the old bike thread we used to have.
It's a 95 glide with an evo.

Have you all heard this utter bullshit regarding tips coming from the mouths of the presidential candidates? No tax on tips! Great say some! Ahhhh there in the devil is in the details…..This would potentially change the whole economic process of renumeration for service.
For example, let’s say I’m a plumber ( not picking on these guys, but had a well pump replaced today, and they did a fucking outstanding job!) So they come out and troubleshoot the problem, and figure I need a new pump. Gonna cost X $, but this is not a bill….wait for it….this is our TIP to replace your jacked up well pump. What do I care? Tip…bill…all the same to me …just get me some water going so I can shit again. Now, that bill is all tax free for my savior plumber, so he just made bank! Good for him …..I guess? But now my dentist bill is a tip, my doctor is a tip, my landscaper is a tip, etc etc etc. No one earns an hourly / salary any more…everyone is just “tipped”.
Some poor mfer is gonna have to make up that difference…….yea…you got it ….you and me!

Fucking politicians pandering to the massses. I expect as much from the democrats, but Trump is talking the same shit. I worked for 30 years and got fn taxed on every fn nickel, as I’m certain any of you did also. F dez political hacks and their fn pandering to the fn poors.

Change my mind

Not only will we ignore the riots and arson but we will happily shoot gas and rubber bullets at folks sitting on their own porches! Splendid

The dumb fucks at DNR deemed that these calibers should be legal to rifle hunt deer in the shitty state of Hellinois. None of the commonly used ones because they think those rounds will hit someone or something ten miles away. Deer hunting with rifle was made legal last year and then the dumb AWB was passed right after. I used a Marlin 512 Slugster for the last two seasons but plan on using a rifle this year.

Which calibers from that list would you consider good for a whitetail deer hunt and could you recommend some nice quality rifles that are chambered in your preferred caliber?

Let me be the first to say that I am a poor. And poors do shit that makes them even poorer by not following the well established rule of "buy once, cry once."
So what project/modification/rabbit hole have you personally chased that embodies the poors ethos?

Some of my examples:

I poored (pun intended) close to $1200 on a Ruger 10/22 by slapping various Kidd upgrades on it when in fact it would have been easier and more time efficient to just shell out $$ for a Kidd Supergrade.

I made a mirage shield for my "ELR Savage rifle" out of venetian blind slats and Velcro. The turd-a-riffic concoction messed with my barrel harmonics and after the barrel heated up, the glue from the Velcro melted onto my barrel discoloring and branding it with a tenacious residue akin to the Scarlet Letter, but instead of an "A," it is a "P," a tell-tale mark of a poor.

I contemplated purchasing a Pelican case to protect my "precious," a Garmin Xero C1 and wanted to buy a Leofoto arca rail attachment to mount it to my rifle for getting reloading data, but saw the folly of this overly complex, bulky, and heavy set up when the tripod deployment is so simple and flexible in application. An overly protective case or covering is another tell-tale sign of a poor. Yes, I'm looking at you poors with OtterBox 30 megaton protection case for your phones.

What example of poor behavior are you guilty of? Bonus points for photos.

Cheers,
The Poors Commander-in-Chief

I've got a local widow with a couple MG's in the estate, so I'm posting here before they go off to a broker or auction. Super nice condition1917 on a DLO sideplate with tons of extras. Tripod and cradle, AA extension and sights, pano sight, belt loader, complete spare parts kit in the case plus extras, 8 barrels (4 06, 2 8mm, 2 308), manuals.

Also there's a UZI registered bolt gun with spare magazines and the original semi parts.

Make an offer at or above wholesale and we'll get a form filed, got a week or so before it gets dumped off to a dealer. I've got some photos on my phone if you are serious and want a look.

On appeal, the Minnesota State Supreme Court on Wednesday upheld lower courts’ rulings that a man, threatened by an attacker holding a knife and declaring he wants to “slice his throat,” had a “duty to retreat if reasonably possible.” The courts state that Earley Romero Blevins, the potential victim, failed to retreat. Therefore, he has now become the criminal, facing 39 months in jail.

“Judicially Created”​

The high court admitted that this “duty to retreat” is “a judicially created element of self-defense.” It says that it therefore applies to anyone who claims he or she was acting in self-defense by pulling out a weapon instead of running from the scene.

Said the majority in the 4-2 ruling:

I just noticed that on Amazon, there are no adjustable ar stocks in the search. WTF are they trying to do?

I’m currently competing with a stock B14R. I’m looking at upgrading to a custom rifle and using my B14R as a backup. I’ve considered buying a second B14R and having a barrel spun up. Excuse my ignorance but what am Is someone gaining by getting a VUDOO or RIMX other than a smoother action?

Will I lose Strelok if I update iPhone to latest iOS ?

With Santa involved again on a much larger scale, they won't have to openly cheat as hard. LOL

The dems will win in Nov, bank it & prepare for it. This country is fucked, but the quicker it burns to the ground the quicker we rebuild w/o all the dead weight of the FSA and their empowers.

Who had the most to gain by pushing/allowing/planning this, to fruition?

New, never mounted. Ended up doing a 4-20 on the gas gun I was purpose building.

Hey guys this isn't a good news post.

We all know how much @MikeRTacOps contributes to the long-range LEO and snipers hide community.
The help and support he gives to random people on here is too much to list.

Well, a friend of his just passed away from cancer at only 47, Gonzalo Galvez.

He was an LA County Sheriff, and member of the SEB (Special Enforcement Bureau).
If you aren't familiar, they handle the most dangerous warrants and situations in all of LA county.
Later on he went over to the ESD, which serve as the tactical paramedics for the SEB.

Here is a QR code with a link to help out his family.
Anything is much appreciated. Thanks guys.
