    Sidearms & Scatterguns Shot a sti today and I fell in love.

    I have several STI parts on my project 1911s but never had the money to buy one when I could (before the roster). Now I'm playing around with a 10mm converted Glock 21. I know it's not as nice but I'm not good enough with a pistol to take advantage of the difference.

    Geissele Super 700 / Nucleus compatibility

    Go for the Bix 'n Andy or wait for the two stage Triggertech. A Huber might work too. I'm excited when I see a bolt action trigger company make an AR trigger, not so much when an AR trigger company makes a bolt action trigger...

    When someone complains about your Trump sign........

    I will be fine with anyone calling me tacky as long as they are calling Donald Trump Mr. President. We still have about 9 more years of that to look forward to.

    Mosin Nagant Sporterizing

    If you don't want to save the barrel, cut a ring around it just in front of the receiver. If you only leave 0.030-0.050" of shoulder on the barrel, that should relax the barrel threads enough to remove it without major tools. I was able to do it with a receiver wrench made from a scrap of pine...

    Rifle Scopes 34mm Mount for AR10?

    I really like the KDG Sidelok mounts, I have four of them, two 30mm cantilever mounts on Aero M5s (LR308) and two for red dot sights. They have the best QD in the game and are as stout as anything I've seen.

    At Least She Didn't Walk Home Half-naked in a Blizzard

    I'm laughing my ass off. They created a hell hole in one of the most expensive parts of the country and have to import police officers because none want to live there but they are shitty officers because Oakland can't afford competitive pay. The crime is insane so if the officers don't hate...

    Maggie’s Son in laws and tools..

    I'm dealing with a Brother-in-law who is starting a business and dealing with contractors but he is one of the least mechanical people I know. I looked at the blueprints and can see many errors and omissions the contractor has made and they are really late too. Now I'm telling my bil what to...

    K-Bars What Knife is in your pocket right now?

    My Wilson Combat branded, Elishewitz designed Hogue EX-04. It is not an automatic but has a push-button lock and a safety lock. The handle is CNC machined G10 with stainless inserts around the pivot and lock area. It is mostly a closed back, no spacers or liners. When you are holding it...

    Larue MBT-1S Worth the Upgrade?

    I'm sure that RRA and Larue probably won't agree with this statement but the Larue seems to be very similar to the RRA but made with better materials and just looks more nicely made. The RRA is known for wearing out eventually, hopefully the Larue won't have that problem. I have an RRA in one...

    The OFFICIAL 'Wuhan' Coronavirus outbreak information and tracking thread. NARRATIVE CHANGE. "Endemic, just like the cold". Cuomo regrets lockdown.

    Thank you for that link. It is good and is worrying me more. It probably won't change my response to an outbreak that much but decontamination will probably have to be more thorough.

    The OFFICIAL 'Wuhan' Coronavirus outbreak information and tracking thread. NARRATIVE CHANGE. "Endemic, just like the cold". Cuomo regrets lockdown.

    It seems like the transmission is through projectile coughed fluids hitting your face. If that is true, a mask and face shield should be good protection until you have someone cough on you, then you should wash them or swap out. Of course wash your hands frequently and don't touch your face...

    Mayor Pete's Service

    Honestly, I trust people with a 2.75 GPA more than Ivy Leaguers. Most of them had to work for it and a lot of them are proud of their degrees. I would much rather have leaders who know how to get things done than leaders who are just social climbers with impressive paperwork.

    Fighting your shooting bags. ELR

    Lab jacks can be nice and stable or floppy and cheap. The nice ones I have seen are made for optics (laser positioning and similar) and made from billet aluminum. The cheap ones are made from steel sheet metal. The problem is a rear rest sized optical quality lab jack costs several hundred...

    Fighting your shooting bags. ELR

    The cheap bag I got was a Hyskore. The fill is pretty light and not stiff. I haven't opened it to see exactly what it is but with the zippers it shouldn't be hard to change. The exterior is nice and smooth, it should ride pretty well if the fill is right.

    Fighting your shooting bags. ELR

    I just received a cheap Chinese made rear bag that I had on backorder with Brownells. It has zippers on the ears and the base for adjusting fill. It seems to be all leather and pretty nice. I think I paid less than $30 for it.

    AR-15 blew up! Thoughts?

    I don't bother checking 5.56 because I've never found an out of spec 5.56 bolt. I figure the chambers should be sufficiently consistent as well. One thing is I try not to scrape the bottom of the barrel with my bolts or barrels. That probably helps me avoid headspace issues. I have several...

    Blond or Silver?

    It's funny, I know a woman who is 18 years older than me who just got divorced from her first husband who is a deadbeat and she fucks anything that moves, including guys younger than me. For me, no thank you, but her (barely legal) daughter looks hot. That would be less of an age discrepancy...

    AR-15 blew up! Thoughts?

    I think you are forgetting the pin, that makes it much harder to bend. If you look at the dust cover and imagine it in the open position, it got pushed out hard. There wouldn't be enough gas coming out between the upper and lower to do that, the upper moved A LOT. The lower probably moved...

    Blond or Silver?

    The "blonde" is home grown. The other one looks like she is enjoying spending her first husband's money.

    AR-15 blew up! Thoughts?

    I just noticed the dust cover. That bend probably indicates the amount that the upper and possibly the lower blew out during the malfunction. It's way too much, so far I wouldn't shoot that upper for fear of metal fatigue even if everything else checked out ok. The lower isn't as stressed as...
