I'm sure that his friends really appreciated getting iPads, fences built and other gifts from him. He was like Santa Claus with the drug fund money.
Hmmmm, probably a new take on this book



I wonder if the deputies he was using for personal favors were getting paid overtime rate?
His lawyers were trying to argue that he was now mentally incompetent to be charged even though he was setting up for a run in the next election for sheriff.

Back when @akmike47 could not resist @Dirty D 's uniform .....

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 me the most as a child. Mr. Six Million Dollar Man, had to relearn how to speak and walk after an accident. Always looked you in the eyes during a conversation, even the children.

Carry on ...

Wanted to share this product from Carolinalaserworks.ecwid.com designed for Accuracy International/Remington 700 style UID tags. It scans with the info you provide. But it also protects the factory finish behind the ejection port from brass dings if you shoot your M24. The ejector spring seems to be more robust on the SWS compared to standard 700 actions; Ive had M24's with the Rem-Tough coating completly worn away in this area. It also looks tits. $11 shipped cant go wrong. These were never issued with the system, and can easily be removed. Better than a strip of velcro

I’m gonna get flamed here, but Faxon pencil profile barrels shoot pretty well if you need a lightweight barrel and will keep it inside 100 yards or so. For a lightweight build upper, you’re probably not gonna find one much lighter for any given length, and at their price point it’s not a bad choice.

I’d SBR the lower and run a 9” or so 300 BLK barrel for shorter range stuff myself, but a pinned 13.9 (use a NOX or similar), or a pinned 14.5” 5.56 with almost any muzzle device and you’ll be gtg too.

Or a pistol brace now that that nonsense if over and done with…again…and for now! LoL

Is the barrel you have threaded? How much you want for it?

Yup. Its threaded 1/2x28. I'd need to get $200 shipped for it to be worth it to me. It has less than 1000 rounds on it. Honestly, ar15discounts.com has them on sale for like $275 right now. I'd spend the extra $85 and get the brand spankin new one. Still, if saving around $85 is worth it to you, let me know.

My two accurate AR uppers are WOA Bartlein service uppers! Really happy they are going to continue to live up to their history. May have to see if they will do a heavy bartlein/Kreiger ( not service profile).

I am running a Rush 24 for EDC and work because of the work laptop. I make use of the zippered internal compartments, but also use a couple Maxpedition Admin pouches with custom name tapes for content ID. A couple other similar sized pouches of indeterminate manufacture organize bulkier items. This is after using quart and gallon z freezer bags to organize things.

Do NOT confuse US Army Special Operations Command units with the Regular Army.

The Army WILL provide USASOC units with whatever the service's weapons are, BY LAW. Arms rooms will have M17s, M7s (eventually, if USASOC does not refuse them and stays with M4A1s and M110s. The Army isn't going to stop making 5.56 and 7.62), and M250s.

They will also have USSOCOM-purchased Glock 19s, MRGGAs, and Ss.

There was a period when Special Forces companies had M16A2s, .45s, Berettas, and Colt 723 "CAR-15s".

Couldn’t agree more on this one. They missed the mark here

Pretty much going to get SAC Mod Die system. The Wilson Single stage only accepts 7/8", atm. Kinda a deal breaker as SAC said their future 338 Lap Mod Sizing dies is 1".

I wish Bruno had it already, their 50th anniv sale is awesome on the LE Wilson stuff. My inline seating die was almost half off.

Their new barrel maker and gunsmith is retired USAMU Staff Sergeant Ben Cleland.

Ben fired the first-ever perfect score of 800 with a service rifle at the 2019 Charlie Smart Memorial Regional in Oak Ridge, Tennessee on 1 June 2019.

The 800-point course is 20 shots standing in 20 minutes at 200 yards; two 10-shot rapid fire strings sitting at 200 yards in 60 seconds each; two 10-shot rapid fire strings prone at 300 yards in 70 seconds each; and 20 shots in 20 minutes prone at 600 yards.
