My $0 Tax Stamp Rant

There’s still a registry that requires a photo/finger prints and you’re required to have a document that says you were allowed to own it under threat of a potential decade in prison.

I’m missing the win.
You're sharper than this. Did you get hammered last night? It was the 4th of July. It happens to the best of us. He's saying we didn't get "the win"..

My $0 Tax Stamp Rant

You guys are arguing the cost, where as this is about setting court precedent of common use and removal from the NFA. That is the “win.”
You're correct, but we got way off into the weeds discussing the principles of economics in a theoretical scenario that we were denied by the senate.

It's all mental masturbation. Of course removal from the NFA is the goal. My original post said so, clearly. What I said was that nobody would have cared if they had left the $200 tax in place as long as they removed them from the NFA. Nobody cares about the $200. I doubt many people would disagree with that.

I’m on the side saying the current stuff won’t get cheaper
Well, this entire conversation has been speculation based on an event that didn't happen. I'm using the principles of economics to describe this non-existent future, and you're using your crystal ball or whatever. We won't be able to see who is correct because it didn't pass, and it won't pass in the future. We all knew they weren't going to pass it.

Movie Theater Alone at Dawn book to be a movie "Combat Control". John Chapman MoH Takur Ghar 2002

The entire Navy SEAL community is basically shitbags best left to selling shitty flashlights, shitty trolling motor batteries in boxes and fucked up fitness videos on late night TV.

Remember their Rambo idiot who stabbed a nearly dead injured kid? Or Chris Kyle's secret permit that allowed him to shoot Mexicans at gas stations? Or that drunken fuck that thinks he shot Bin Laden endlessly shit posting.

They all need to take a page from Submariners and shut the fuck.up.

If it were me I would go origin or the TL3. The TL3 has a lighter bolt lift and may help a little if she has any strength issues running the bolt, but either one will be fine. I would get what ever chassis lightest in the rear so u dont have to add weight to get it to balance. I would put that together before you buy a barrel and try to mess with weight and get a barrel profile that will balance at that point. I would try hard to keep most of the weight centered up and then get either 6BR or even a 6 arc would be a good choice. I wouldnt go smaller then a 6mm because it gets hard to spot misses and for people to call impacts on a big plate.

Indianapolis police chief tells it like it is.

The only thing that will fix this is to start charging for crimes. And repatriation.
The problem is that they put cops in prison for doing their jobs. This problem was created by the acab crowd. Derrick Chauvin is an innocent man. He's a political prisoner. People want the trash taken out, but they expect the people who do it to be absolutely perfect. They are expected to spend all day dealing with the scum of society for a pathetic paycheck and if they make any mistakes, people are screaming for their heads. It's like a perfect storm of stupidity.

Any place I’ve worked I’ve double and sometimes triple checked paperwork depending on who did it, then it’s checked at least once more by compliance, and it was randomly spot checked near time an audit could happen.
Im willing to bet I’ve touched way more of the paperwork we are talking about than most people unfortunately.

Like I said some things go down in cost, while others go up in cost. “Over time as you continue to refine the process and the labor force, the cost should continue to go down” yet the prices keep going up. i believe I read from 2019-2024 suppressor sales went up 264%, prices didn’t go down they just raked in the profit.
During the highest burst of inflation in world history? I'll bet the prices followed the inflation step for step. The tax assessment on my home increased 115% in the same time frame. Ribeye went from $5.99/ lb to $16.99/lb. Of course they didn't get cheaper.

Not gonna buff out

My submission.

Had one of those installed at C6-7 last night. Probably caused by the infantry life of Kevlar helmets etc and breaking T10-L2 over 15 years ago which has caused kyphosis and placed long term pressure on the cervical spine. Surprisingly got home today.

Still laughing at how my wife asked the surgeon if I’d need to modify my weight training to prevent further damage (C5-6 isn’t happy either) and he straight up shut her down telling me to keep lifting and change nothing.
