6 ARC Upper Build: 16" Blackhole Weaponry Mid Length + CMT Billet Upper + Icon Defense Drivelock Rail

Is this a new BHW? I thought they changed their name, did they change it back?

I would not have chosen mid length gas for a 16" 6 arc. Both my 18 and 16 were rifle length gas.

I sold a 20" BHW ar15 barrel to another member here don't remeber who. It was a good shooter though. I also shot out a BHW remage barrel in 22-250 in about 700 rounds shooting the 80amax. Not a hot load but hot firing schedule.

Is Russia done pretending?

Another term that seems to be eluding comprehension just like strategic.

Please elaborate on exactly what this term means in a non-question form including how it pertains to conscription/draft practices.

You don't set the rules for people's responses in a place where my questions receive non-answer mentions of gay sex,which illicit overwhelming little thumbs up emojis and positive replies. You're free to google "selective service" however if you're genuinely uneducated and curious, and I applaud you for seeking to better yourself through the expansion of your knowledge on US government. Learning is fun! :)

This will make a couple people mad

Took 7 hundred years last time but they kicked the Muz out.

The one (gun) that got away

I let one get away, but no regrets. When I was a senior in college (1973) a friend of mine inherited a gun collection from his father. He asked me if I wanted to buy a NIB Browning Hi-Power 9mm that he had for sale for $95.00. At that time a new T-Series was around $125.00 (if I recall correctly). I told him I would like to take a look at it. Low and behold, he produce a NIB Hi-Power Renaissance with the round hammer and pearl grip panels. The engraving was spectacular. Of course, I did the right thing and told him what he had and suggested he get it appraised.

Maggie’s Credentialed but Illiterate

I believe a huge part of the problem is cultural. How many times a day does an average American, regardless of anything, read a headline and maybe 2-3 sentences following on and moves on to the next thing? Smart phones, tablets, and how we get information, process info… We’re all guilty of it.

We've been getting "reprogrammed" for a while now, with TV and phone apps designed to hijack our dopamine receptors to give us quick hits, to compete for our screen time.

I was thinking about this not too long ago, how it's changed all of us, myself included - and I hate it.

I'm in Nogal, just outside Ruidoso.
Familiar with the area and used to hunt on the Pfingsten ranch years ago. Live in Anthony and have a place in the Upper Canyon which unfortunately was extensively damaged in the floods this year. Hobby shop and fabricate sliders for 4Runners for friends and others who see mine and want a pair. Really nice work in your post.

Did you mean: how to lead a literate population

AI Overview


Leading a literate and critically-thinking populace requires a transparent, collaborative, and evidence-based approach to governance and communication. Unlike a population that can be managed through simple, top-down directives, a literate citizenry demands reasoned arguments, is skeptical of easy answers, and expects to be an active participant in decision-making.

Funny, the AI gets it.
