Need heavy equipment advice.

Any tracked machine will tear the yard up while turning. The wheeled bobcats will as well if you turn sharply. Even a zero turn mower will do it until you learn to avoid it by using a wider turning radius rather than simply spinning around in place. The excavator and tracked bobcats will require a huge, gradual turning radius to keep from tearing up ground.

Josh shoots with MPA Matrix Pro

I believe the whole UK team is shooting Matrix Pro rifles, the Czech team is effectively the Anschutz factory team with the new APR 1727 (an amazing rifle).

A bit crazy really, as a standard CZ LRP or MTR isn't really much competition.

The 2nd day is about half way through, a very tight race for 3-10th in open. Will see how it plays out.

Gunsmithing What are you guys using now days to clean and lube?

🙄 you’re worried about petroleum based products? You know there’s 1000 ways to die right? And you don’t to ick your death unless doing it yourself. But that worried? They make these things called nitrile gloves? They work
As someone that works with chemicals all day long, there is more than skin exposure. Im just trying to limit the exposure to my family, thats all. Im not a I wanna live forever guy, but I also dont want to kick the bucket over firearm maintenance.

There are products that work just as good that are significantly less harmful to us, this can be said for many chemicals we use in life. Not just here.

Thats all bud, just looking to cut back on exposure.

V-Series Magazine Update:

It's looking pretty awesome. This is the roughing op for the V2217 (V22 compatible, 17 round capacity) Left Magazine Half. We started proofing the approach with the larger magazine to validate the physical clearance envelope and there's gobs of room.

Thanks to the change of approach, we're ahead of schedule and will start running the V2210 within another few days.
More to follow....

Our Prosperity is Killing Us. - Better explained than I could

The industry is in a serious down turn right now. Many of the distilleries are in trouble with bankruptcy. Several of the big ones have already turned in their yearly reports and they are not good. Most of the big distilleries are turning in their reports next week and are expected to be the same.
Hopefully it will be good for us in reducing some of the bloated price increases over the last several years
Yup. Too many players = over saturated market. The big bourbon craze is fading somewhat with nothing on the horizon to replace it. The market will correct itself in time and then there will be fewer players.

Suppressors Suppressed Contenders anyone

I’d talk to a local machinist. A good one!

It’s a fixturing problem for sure.

If I were doing it, I’d strip the gun and see if the barrel is long enough to go through the headstock into a collet. Failing that, remove barrel from action. Failing that, secure the action in a four-jaw chuck and spend a lot of time centering it…run muzzle in a live center to thread.
If it’s long enough, a steady rest might be needed.

There are a bunch of ways to potentially thread. But will take the right equipment and someone go knows what they are doing!!

Not sure how hard it is to remove the barrel from a Marlin lever… but the time invested there is. LOT of time potentially saved in fixturing!

Sirhr
Unfortunately, my headstock is long. Around 20"
I'll probably end up pulling it from the action.

no prosecutions for the leak?

A Reminder. The CIA installed the encrypted software on the computers, phones and other electronic devices when Trump took over and his appointments.
I'm not saying that this guy is not guilty. Just saying that

So fertility rates are plunging because men don’t make sammiches?

If you fuck a hoe and she pumps out a kid a white man is on the hook for 18 to 24 years of payments. A minority gent gets a pass on 95% of all court ordered misery.

If you are married to a woman who pretends to like you, the payments are higher. Daycare is twice a Ferrari payment until school starts and you don't get the car.

You can jerk off for free and buy a dog that likes you more than most women and it eats table scraps and doesn't care what you watch on TV.

Looking at a so-called modern woman is the most compelling argument for extinction ever made.
