Tim Kennedy is a liar

The government creates heros when the population tires of a war. A sniper is the easiest way to do it because the civilians think its a solo effort. They believe the movies and think there is a man out there alone on the battlefield just yeeting people from the shadows and disappearing into the smoke. Hathcock was a government invention, so was Chris Kyle, Audie Murphy, Alvin York, etc. They all do it. The Russians might be better at it than we are. The Germans were good at it. The British do it, the Canadians do it, everyone does it. You take a guy who looks like the boy next door with a plausible background and you make a hero out of them for the world to see. They are as much victims as anything. They look for people who are morally flexible..I remember reading Hathcock's book about 10 times as a teenager, believed every word of it like the letters were written in red. When I was in my early 20's I stumbled into his now famous series of video interviews, and within a couple of minutes i realized I was listening to a sociopathic narcissist and a liar. It was so blatantly obvious. When you realize the lengths the government will go to to accomplish this shit, it will make you sick. Both Marcus Luttrell and Chris Kyle had admitted that they came back from a deployment and where told they had written a book, and this is what it says. Some of them love the sunshine it brings, and some of them eventually fall apart under the weight of the lie. I expect Luttrell to be suicided any minute now for breaking from the story, while he's also pushing for psychedelics for ptsd treatment. The government and big pharma are probably in a race to see who can get a noose into his closet first. They've probably already written the suicide note. I think there are reasons to believe that Chris Kyle was killed because he was talking too much and messing up the narrative.
.Gov needs SF heros because everything they do can can be hidden, you can't FOIA anything.

When you look at a lot of early 21st century SF propaganda in books, movies, games ETC that coincided with the GWOT, it seems the SF hero worship was not a totally organic happenstance.

Mk 13 Mod 0 stock

Guess we all agree they were parts/ test guns. Still cool guns just for the original mod 3 receivers/ bolts.

When I was super into the Mod0/5 several years ago I had pics of another MK 13 mod 5ish that I have never seen a single person post or talk about. It was a mod 5 converted to be a take down rifle. The pics I had were super neat, but my old computer blew up.

Suppressors Suppressor transfers in the no tax stamp era

No.

Not if he doesn't add them until after the transfers or purchases are done and the ATF forms are approved. Only the people actually in the trust at the time of application/approval need background checks.

There is no background check for people added to a trust after everything is purchased. With what might be considered a higher "quality" trust all it takes is writing an amendment and getting it notarized at the UPS store or the cat lady in the neighborhood who happens to be a notary.

The fed, the ATF, the sheriff, none of them get involved. Nobody even ever has to see the amendment except the notary and the people being added. The little book the notary keeps only shows you got something notarized with a title for the document, no content, no copy of the form goes on record with the notary.

If anybody is already on the trust then just do the 41F Hokey Pokey. Remove them, approve the forms then add them back.
"Nobody even ever has to see the amendment except the notary and the people being added"

Why wouldn't you have to include the amendment to the trust (presumably removing the people) with the trust on the next purchase submission? The trust has been changed by the amendment.

Aero Solus Ejector Roll Pin Size?

If you have box of assorted drill bits, you might be able to try those going flat end in (not cutting end) incrementally up in size and see where the pass fail size is. Get a pin one step above the last drill bit that goes in
This was a great tip.

1/16" x 1/2" got the job done for anyone that comes across this in the future.

Pouring a 30"×40" concrete pad on top of concrete floor?

High strength ready mix should do just fine, dont get it too wet, like a moderate porridge. I never hurts to roughen up the existing slab and or use a bonding agent, but with the rebar inserts and weight of a 30"x40" slab its not going anywhere. If you just have to, use a grinder and cut 1/2" grooves but not too close to the edges. Tap the edges of your form so te mud will settle and not leave voids on the edges.

Let it cure for at least a week as it takes 30 days to dry about 80%. IIRC Be sure to have a steel or magnesium trowel for finishing the surface.
This response is perfect. This man must have decades of concrete experience. If i hadn't read this, my response would have been almost verbatim..

People who dump kittens and puppies should be strung up….

Don’t think so but just for clarification- you’re not including hunting - pest control and the slaughter of livestock correct?
Not at all, I get killing pest that cost a farmer or land owner money, hunting or harvesting livestock.
I’m talking about people who throw kittens or puppy’s off bridges into water or the likes when they are just too lazy to drop them off at a shelter.
That kind of heartless shit !
Or abusing a pet.
I do get there is a feral dog packs that have become dangerous and have to be put down.
And that is only for the fact that someone just turned them loose out in the country and now they have become dangerous to others.
There are folks that say if they see a dog in the country that don’t have a coller on they will automatically shoot them.
Because it’s a real problem in some areas.
I personally think I would observe before shooting it like a coyote.
I did not know about this feral dog problem in the country and now am abit more watchful of the issue.
A pack of dogs with no collers my gun will go off safety from now on.

Bad governors

Does anyone remember when Joe Biden's administration sued the state of Texas for trying to secure their own border? They won the suit in a kangaroo court with an Obama appointee judge on the grounds that immigration enforcement is solely federal jurisdiction. Now you have the governors, mayors, and congress demons of the same party openly saying they will interfere with federal immigration enforcement in their states/ cities.

There must be arrests. They need to perp walk these people, mug shots, take their shoes and put them in a jumpsuit, make them call some greasy bail bondsman in the middle of the night, the whole experience. Like everyone else, I'm sick of everyone getting a pass. Cuff these idiots.

Fuck Pritzker

You're right. Even though everything south of Chicagoland is red ... there's nothing we can do. If it wasn't for the only family we have, I'd be out of this God forsaken place tomorrow.
I am kind of in the same boat as you. Grandkids..... But my wife has been looking at listings in Georgia our DIL has been sending her. There may be hope.

Are DD Ross and Badger M40A3 style clip slotted bases unobtanium?

Maybe one of these these? If you can find one
