Tariffs and ammo prices?

"This tariff increases the cost to 1000 rounds of 5.56 by about $100, and 1000 rounds 9mm about $50. At that point they simply cannot compete in the market against US manufacturing and most likely would slowly exit the market over the next year with the most popular products drying up first."

Who wants to bet that SGA Ammo is using scare tactic to motivate sales like most ammo companies have been doing for years now? I love SGA Ammo and order from them regularly, all US-Made ammo of course when I see deals on 6.5 Grendel.

I know local beef farmers and US steel are rejoicing for once. You know a lot of these countries have total bans on our products so they can protect their local industries, AND they rely almost entirely on the US for major weapons systems, aircraft, gas turbine engines, refined petroleum.

The US is not the Country you want to mess around with when it comes to trade, especially after you have aborted your future in the womb at standard policy, imported savages with the lowest IQs on the planet, are aging, and attacked your own defense industries like they were your enemy.

People are going to find out really quick how unequal they are with the US, and the smart ones have already rushed to adjust their pricing and policies in the US’s favor. To not do so threatens entire industries in their nations, whereas we might not even notice.

A huge thing people don’t understand is that the US is the 2nd largest exporter in the world, and the global system we built will fall apart without our weapons, heavy industries, refined petroleum capacity, airlines, computers, software, firmware, agricultural-processing equipment, while we spend hundreds of billions protecting the sea lanes and straits thousands of miles away from home for their benefit.

These countries then have the gaul to criticize us for having expensive healthcare, while we send them our most advanced MRI and diagnostic medical devices, discounted pharmaceuticals, and related medical advances while our citizens get raped by scheisters in-between us and our providers.

Nightforce Ultramount vs Unimount

Oh, yeah. Those look nice. I went with the nightforce ring topper with the koeng adapter because I liked the idea of the increased surface area with the nightforce top ring. Less chance of messing up the scope tube in the event of a hard hit.

So. Many. New. Calibers.

Not a lot has changed, though I learned over the years I prefer temp insensitive powders, long barrel life, low recoil, higher BC, and great precision, and strong well made brass - or the best compromises of.

I tried all kinds of cartridges for varmints and I sold all except for 223 in AR and kept a 5mmFBI/20VTAI bolt gun which is too good not to have.

Sold a bunch of guns and kept 6mmBR for normal long range distances. It's too good as well.

6.5 Saum is a terror and I got temped by speed so 140's at 3240 fps has been fantastic. Probably just stick with it at this point because the recoil is much the same as my 6mmBR being it's a 24 pound gun.

I don't have bigger cartridges any more but kinda want one for ELR. I wonder which one would be the optimal choice, 375-338L maybe??

Charter captain goes pirate in Florida

ONe of the news outlets is reporting he is a combat veteran ranger with traumatic brain injury.
I am sure someone here can confirm who this guy really is.
I think the extensive criminal record and the list of typical Florida fraudster licenses says all you need to know.

So his shitbag attorney says he is a certified hero.

Attorney almost makes me feel sorry for the guy...
He good. Probably get Horner off with a slap on the wrist.
With a name like that, hell he might even sue the kid for unsafe equipment, cause Horner pulled his tiny groin muscle when he jumped in the boat.

RT660... so many better tires out there today.

Those tires were good maybe 4 years ago.

Have you had an issue with them chucking the tread? Everybody thought it was fixed with the RT660+ but I guess not.

Im going to try out the Vitor P1's as my next tire. Supposed to be faster than the RC1 I am currently been running.

The Greatest Archaeological and Technological Discovery of Mankind

I’m still open to the possibility that this might be a hoax, so I’m not fully-convinced of the imagery and interpretations of it.

At least one of the guys on the team is big into UFOlogy, nothing wrong with that, but I have to question motives.

UFOs are great and all, but if I’m not building one, it’s kind of a waste of time.

In our family library, my dad had every book known to man practically on the subject, next to volumes on physics, thermodynamics, aerospace engineering course materials that filled a bookshelf on their own, books on Tesla, partial differential equations, advanced calculus, etc. He’s a super intellectual mathematical/aerospace engineer who worked on a lot of developmental programs for DoD throughout his career.

Guys like that are often into sci-fi, big foot, etc. We knew a guy who invested in a big foot hunter Jeep, complete with spot lights, a net, Radios, etc. and used to go out driving around the desert searching for Sasquatch. Dude’s wife left him of course, as he was more into hunting for big foot than being a husband.

At a very early age, I had read all those UFO books, including Blue Book, the abduction stories, Kenneth Arnold, Roswell, you name it. These were all pre-internet era, so I have a different perspective on the whole topic. In my 20s, I realized it’s a waste of time for me, and I had seen multiple eye witness phenomena at different times and locations as a kid in the Mediterranean and around the remote US flight test centers in the Southwest US.

I lean more towards advanced domestic programs as the primary source of sightings, as well as untrained observers who can’t tell the difference between general and commercial aviation at night, vs their imaginations. We saw that recently with the drone scare BS.

The question now is follow-up imagery and penetrating scans under the pyramids, and will the savages allow it.

CIVIL ASSET FORFEITURE AND FLYING THE FRIENDLY SKIES

I never said it wasn't your right to carry whatever you feel comfortable carrying.

I only carry what I am comfortable with losing since it won't ever be returned to you. It seems that the news stories on this thread bear that out. Crooks are everywhere including crooks dressed in uniform.

There was nothing more to it.

Carry on.
No, you said you didn't understand why people carried so much in what seemed a very condescending manner.
Whatever, just don't bitch out and backpedal, it makes no sense to me
