    Q's Regarding Firearm Sales.

    Re: Q's Regarding Firearm Sales. The potential problem with face-to-face transfers is not necessarily the liability with post-sale criminal activity, but is with the actual transfer itself. Look at 18 U.S.C 922(d) and see the restrictions with which the seller must be familiar. Fugitive...

    The Municipal Debt Bomb is Ticking: When Will It E

    Re: The Municipal Debt Bomb is Ticking: When Will It E Yeah, buy and hold has been my strategy for a few decades. The last 10 years has sucked and I wished I had managed my money more actively.

    The Municipal Debt Bomb is Ticking: When Will It E

    Re: The Municipal Debt Bomb is Ticking: When Will It E It was just a thought. My broker has been nudging me to get in the market and I frustrate him when I say I am going to sit on my cash for the foreseeable future. The muni idea popped in my head recently but I have not applied much thought...

    Q's Regarding Firearm Sales.

    Re: Q's Regarding Firearm Sales. I do only the minimum required. Everything else has little or no effect on one's "liability". For a private FTF transfer, I am only required to verify age and residency. I do that by looking at the buyer's driver's license. I make no copy of it and I offer no...

    Pelican or Storm case?

    Re: Pelican or Storm case? Pelican is rated to both higher and lower temperatures than Storm, and Pelican passes IP67 (dust tight, and water tight to 1 meter submersion for 30 minutes). The Storm iM3300 does not make that claim. I think Pelican is the better case, and I like the latches...

    AR500 Steel

    Re: AR500 Steel I bought 12" and 16" AR500 gongs from Arntzen Targets. http://www.arntzentargets.com/products.htm What distance range is available to you? That might guide your choice in target sizes.

    Advanced Marksmanship Interesting thumb placement for precision shooting

    Re: Interesting thumb placement for precision shooting I'm a rookie and I've been laying my thumb on the same side of the stock as my trigger finger because it feels like the trigger finger is better isolated for a straight backwards pull without the influence from a squeezing grip. I thought...

    FN SPR "Fredricksburg"

    Re: FN SPR "Fredricksburg" Thanks. I just found a similar statement elsewhere. Someone really blew the spelling. I guess that makes my rifle sooooo much more valuable. No worries. It shoots just fine.

    FN SPR "Fredricksburg"

    I'm sure some of you must have seen this. I bought a new FN SPR a couple of years ago and was just tracing it for a Pelican case cut-out. What caught my eye was the marking on the barrel. I live in Fredericksburg, VA now, and I noticed this rifle (or maybe just the barrel) was manufactured here...

    Re: HELLO FROM VIRGINIA I moved here from Colorado, where I could set up a range in the national forest at any distance I wanted. Not that I could hit a darned thing, but the freedom was nice. The lack of an abundance of public property in VA is driving me nuts. Anyway, I live in...

    SAC:latest generation Rem 700 boltknob conversions

    Re: SAC:latest generation Rem 700 boltknob conversions Mark put Badger knobs on my FN SPR and Rem 700 bolts. Each bolt was done with perfect transitions from the knob contour to that of the bolt handle. While bolt knob conversions may be simpler than other gun smithing operations, Mark's...

    Rifle Scopes Bargain Leupold?

    Re: Bargain Leupold? If Leupold has examined it and says there is nothing wrong, then I'd figure the issue was with your friend or his setup. $500 is a steal.

    Rifle Scopes Erector and spring had to be changed on my NF!

    Re: Erector and spring had to be changed on my NF! Assuming the return rate = the defect rate, 0.9% = 4.6 sigma level of quality. 0.09% = 5.2 sigma. Both are woefully short of 6 sigma targets. In the quality world, there is nothing impressive with a 99% success rate until it approaches...
