true that an individual can't usually manage direct input into a rep's actions. staff ignores you or blows it off as i have experienced myself. so,lobbying groups arise as a tool. they eventually become their own reason to exist.
they themselves become highly corrupt and come to exist for their own enrichment. the NRA is a perfect example of this process. my father was a life member since the late 40s,me an endowment for decades. we all know how much they syphoned off thru plain theft,many 6 figure salaries. this is a common route with any lg lobbying group. they steal the $s instead of using it to pressure congress on our behalf. the big ones just buy congress blobs like Warren and Johnson. the lobby blob just becomes an integral part of the DC sewer and system and stays all joined in the corruption game.

I am actually waiting to hear back from DD on their gas block attachment for this model. If they have changed and went the corner cutting route also, then they are a no go I doubt it cause all my DD in 556 are pinned and set screw. I also waiting on the barrel estimate. However The Scar is at 5000. Which is roughly 70% greater barrel life. Not to mention the immense superior differences of the Scar ability to handle heat. As for the DD the barrel is also chf and chrome lined so the functional benefits are there by design. The Geissele is likely able to prrform possibly beyond both. Seekins is not a mil-spec durable weapon, that's been established. Shooting it in slow bench situations may get you to 3000 but no way would you get the durability of a Scar, Geissele and even the DD. And accuracy also has alot to do with shooters skill so variables all factor. But without a doubt Seekins is way overhyped.

Cedar Park is a very nice area and home to one of the best NFA shops I have ever dealt with, Capitol Armory. Still its commuting distance to CBD Austin so real estate is pricey. Anothe thing to add no one has is you need to consider the cost of our utilities, gas, electric, water etc... Some of the highest in the nation.
