    Gunsmithing What type of marker/paint pen do you use to mark/reference the position of screws and maybe highlight a front sight?

    They're in the garage and I don't feel like going out there right now... But any oil based paint marker will get it done. We taught SDM's this when mounting ACOG's because their shit would tend to get knocked loose from time to time or there may be a time when they need to remove it and can't...

    Plate Carrier/ Helmet Storage bag??

    ??? Armor goes on your ass, can carry the helmet like a bucket and load it up with ammo or beef sticks, depending on METT-T.

    M&P 45>10MM conversion barrel

    You mean in a Glock? I never had a problem... Gen2, holy shit, that would've been like from the first run, right? It came out in 1994 I think (why mags were so rare for it back then) and mine was bought in 98 and is at least a 3rd gen! Anyway, I've never had a problem with any 3rd gen Glocks...

    Would you die for America?

    I had to think about it real hard after losing friends in Iraq. I didn't agree with any of that shit. 9/11 happened while I was in infantry school, the day I graduated in fact, and we were all about hunting bin laden's ass down. When I got the ACTUAL security briefing (that'd never happen...

    A page from Hitler's play book..............

    Closer to E. German Stasi but whatever. He was naming his enemies in another "news" post too and it included a larger swath of American public. Wants to turn the clock back and retry Tsarnaev too (the Boston asshole?). Apparently death penalty is okay now --as long as he's okay with it...

    Suppressors Dead Air Sandman L - poor endcap assembly leading to alignment problem

    Lots of companies make decent shit, even a blind squirrel gets a nut. Some good ones fuck up now and again. It sucks but it happens. But it's shit like this and how they handle it that gives me the necessary information to determine if they're just "good" or "stellar". You never really know...

    M&P 45>10MM conversion barrel

    Would you want to even if you could? The Glock G20/21 was built on a 10mm frame, it's not a converted .45 to begin like lots of others. It'll handle the hotter ammo fine. 10mm is fine and all, I have a G20 and a G29 and like those just fine (that I may wind up trading/selling when I get...

    I lusted for The Fix rifle; I just do not want the caliber I got.

    Normally I'd say we oughta get a guy to take a picture of your toothbrush sticking out of his asshole, and post it a week later. But that only works if you actually brush your teeth and since you bought a fag rifle, it'd be more like sniffing panties to a straight, no? GTFO with that shit...

    Finally some push back on vaccine passports

    Got the JJ shot three or four months ago. No problems other than being sick as fuck the day or two after I got it. But I should mention I talked to one of my doctors earlier this week and she got hers but didn't want to... Felt obligated though being a doctor and around a lot of people with...

    CheyTac Owner Blaine Campbell Falsely Claims to be a Green Beret

    Shit, I'm jealous... They absolutely fucked up my DD214, it has NOTHING on it at all... Maybe it was because I was too high speed and that gonna be "classified"! Dude did some cool shit, why not be proud of what you did? I am. And everyone else I know is.

    50 Bmg Blow up....

    There's an old army FM on how to make field expedient weapons out of gas pipe that will chamber common military rounds. But none of them chamber a .50. There's a reason for that. Yeah, fuck Barret, AW and DTA, who needs bolt lugs? And that's not a "case head separation" --that essentially...

    Rust on new uppers.

    Oil and a toothbrush. I use brass sometimes. Surface rust happens sometimes, especially in wet climates. Next time use a light coat and something to wick the water out of the air and/or something to keep the temperature and parts about 10deg. above ambient so water doesn't condense (like a...

    Gas for Guns

    Well to be fair, most of the shit being turned in is the kind of shit most likely to be used in a crime... That shitty little .25 was all of $50 NIB --a tank of gas is worth more than that. The Prius fucker is probably a gun nut laughing all the way to the gas station, he just got a years...

    Oh Atlanta

    I grew up in some of these shit holes. Funny how I'm supposed to be the racist one in the picture... You couldn't pay me to go back there. German and Horta could will me all their shit and I'd still pass. Columbus GA is less than 100 miles South and it's a lot more fun. Especially if you're...

    Need a little help... Glock 23

    I took it that "yaw" meant lateral POI shift. If by yaw he means it's keyholing then that's different and most certainly related to the ammo if the barrel was fine when he got it (and hasn't been fucked up, which again, would be amazing considering how damn tough a Glock barrel is). There's a...

    What receiver sets for precision build?

    Sorry... I know it's been a while, didn't see this until now though. So the only change whatsoever with POI/POA was when I changed suppressors --the TBAC has much less drop than the SDN6 it originally had. The FF tube keeps all the stress off the barrel so no real changes there like with...

    Need a little help... Glock 23

    That barrel is barely broken in. I'd suspect the ammo first. Or possibly your grip/pull. There's a clock chart that shows common mistakes/errors associated with handgun use based on POI.
