Keith Glasscock (real name) posted a YT video demonstrating the effects of CLR on a stainless steel barrel. He cut a 1-inch section from a Benchmark SS barrel and showed the etching results over different exposure times (up to 24 hrs iirc). I've seen recommendations elsewhere to use alcohol to remove CLR residue or other solvents before applying an oil patch for storage.

The other side is the most provocative and belligerent force in the ME currently. Iran hasn't invaded another country in 250 years.

And for the record, I'm not saying Iran is "good" or defending it.

But Israel is a rogue nuclear state that's involved in multiple conflicts in the region and is hellbent on starting a wider conflict with the goal of dragging us into it.

Israel has also been targeted from day one. Bombings, invasions, hijackings, mass shootings, kidnappings, embassies targeted, rockets, missiles, incursions…. 24x7x365 for 70 years ish.

We have one harbor bombed and we unleash Armageddon. A couple of buildings dropped and we go berserk.

If the ME left Israel alone and focused on their economies, the place would be an economic powerhouse and a paradise for everyone. But the a-rab shitheels are too backwards to think anything but tribal revenge.

TE Lawrence predicted it in a book on 1920. He was dead nuts right.

Belligerent? We have been worse than Israel
For 130+ years…. Trying to spread Jeffersonian democracy around the world. While claiming “we’re the guys who want to be left alone.” The Global Mrs. kravitz. Busybody do gooders.

Israel would not mess with anyone if everyone (including a ton of folks here in USA) weren’t an existential threat. But everyone is. Because everyone needs an enemy and for 3,000 years+ it’s been the Heebies.

i'm guessing it is only the 20-30% of zealots at most...not all the persians. just look at how it was before carter.
the problem is the zealots have control and the weapons to keep it.

The zealots are the ones with their grubby paws
On the red buttons, too! The rest are cowed supplicants who do what they are told and mouth the slogans… because otherwise they get thrown off roofs.

Every one under the age of 50 there has grown up under a propaganda regime of destroy Israel and the Great Satan. Do they all believe it? No.

Do enough believe it that they prop up the regime or simply “go along” until Allah wills a better day? Yup. No sense trying to change things “if it is written and Allah wills it.”

One of the great ironies of this war is that it's allegedly being waged because a country who doesn't have nuclear weapons and is a member in good standing of the non-proliferation treaty, is being accused by a country that secretly has nukes and isn't part of the non-proliferation treaty of attempting to build nukes (with no evidence to back up that assertion and counter to US intelligence assessments).

Things that make you go

None of us will live long enough to see those countries make peace with each other.

Best case scenario is a long term cease fire that doesn't drag the USA into anything.

Imho

Oh, I agree.

I'm being way to sensible and pragmatic.

I just find the irony of a country that has a secret stockpile of nuclear weapons and isn't part of the non-proliferation treaty accusing another country who is part of the non-proliferation treaty and doesn't have nukes to be incredibly palpable.

I think for a nuclear free Middle East, Israel should be made to give up it's nuclear stockpiles (technology they stole from us btw), and for Iran to agree to not pursue nuclear weapons.

And both countries to agree to regular inspections to ensure they are not pursuing nuclear weapons.

None of us will live long enough to see those countries make peace with each other.

Best case scenario is a long term cease fire that doesn't drag the USA into anything.

Maybe we drop a nuke on Tel Aviv and then claim the pilot was mistaken and thought it was a Muslim city?

That excuse worked for Israel with the USS Liberty - "fog of war" or so they say

Notice NOTHING, or almost nothing about "Juneteenth" today, right? Compared to 2021 and 2022?

Much of the woke social trends are corporate driven. This year, almost every major corporation are doing the exact opposite, trying to distance themselves from woke trends since Anheuser Busch torpedoed themselves. "Pride month" has also suffered it's most severe flop this year in decades, losing up to 70% of it's corporate sponsors and ad generation. Without commercial ad space and every post office, courthouse, and other public works caving and giving them a section of wall to post banners on, the woke minority is nothing but just that, a vocal, obnoxious minority.

Final text released from Senate Finance Committee.

https://www.finance.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/finance_committee_legislative_text_title_vii.pdf

See pages 261-263.

Only machine guns and destructive devices would remain NFA items, and it makes a very good attempt at fixing state law problems in states that require NFA registration for such items (e.g., Georgia). I would still feel more comfortable with a state law statutory change, but take a look at it and share your thoughts.

So basically it takes this:

26 U.S. Code § 5845 - Definitions

www.law.cornell.edu
(a)Firearm
The term “firearm” means (1) a shotgun having a barrel or barrels of less than 18 inches in length; (2) a weapon made from a shotgun if such weapon as modified has an overall length of less than 26 inches or a barrel or barrels of less than 18 inches in length; (3) a rifle having a barrel or barrels of less than 16 inches in length; (4) a weapon made from a rifle if such weapon as modified has an overall length of less than 26 inches or a barrel or barrels of less than 16 inches in length; (5) any other weapon, as defined in subsection (e); (6) a machinegun;(7) any silencer (as defined in section 921 of title 18, United States Code); and (8) a destructive device. The term “firearm” shall not include an antique firearm or any device (other than amachinegun or destructive device) which, although designed as a weapon, the Secretary finds by reason of the date of its manufacture, value, design, and other characteristics is primarily a collector’s item and is not likely to be used as a weapon.

and turns it into this:

(a)Firearm
The term "firearm" means a machinegun or a destructive device.

There is a little more to it (see link to the text of the bill above), but that is the basic gist of it.

Let's hope it passes the full Senate.

It passed the house 215-214. IF it passes the Senate, it goes back to the house where the whole thing dies…

Just got a set of your Hunt rings for a sportsman build.

IMO you have hands down the best rings/mounts on the market at the moment. They are machined so well that the tube doesn't even want to turn before being torqued. You guys are really on to something machining the bore and not leaving it anodized, which I suspect decreases the co-efficent of friction and can lead to slippage. The index pin is something that should be on every ring/mount.

The fasteners are excellent. The packaging is excellent. The supplied tools are excellent. The price is a bargain for what you get. Kudos and Congratulations for making these!

The real magic on the bore is the patent-pending process - even if it's kind of a pain in the ass for us.

We are making the ring caps and bases (wether one or two piece), sending them out to ano, then when they come back fully anodized we assemble them into sets and put them back into the machine to bore the internal diameter. That gives us a VERY round and on-size internal bore with the raw aluminum. That much surface contact on that surface gives the crazy grip.

But thank you, this is a product that we are really proud of for a lot of reasons, including its success in the market.
