    Gunsmithing Tried to use Brownells Acraglass - trashed my rifle

    Had some real good results with JB Weld on rimfires. I used devcon liquid, putty would have been better, but it still came out ok. The JB was mixed with baking soda to thicken it up and keep it from running as it settles, what it tends to do.

    Movie Theater Fringe

    JJ Abrams did that one. (New Star Treks, Cloverfield) That was on my DVR every week. I like how they tied the show up, but it still had enough legs to keep going for another couple of seasons. I'll say this. There are some shows on and I shake my head and cannot believe that this shit is not...

    Back surgery today!!!

    Yup, get to look forward to a c4-c5 and maybe a c5-c6 fusion as well. Had pain for 3 years, finally go it diagnosed a year ago. Tried the epidural cortizone injections, got 3 weeks of relief. PT has no effect. Sick of pain killers and NSAIDs, cronic heartburn now from them. Waking up with a...

    Movie Theater Southland

    Took me a second to realize that the young tweeker didn't do a warning shot in the 2nd to last episode. Had a big WTF moment at the end of the finale with Cooper. If they are keeping the reality as close as they can, there is no way you are going to see him back as a PO in the next season. But...

    6920's back at wal mart?

    That $1k price is actually the normal price for the Colts. The bare bones DPMS' (I think its the Sportical) are just under $600. The craze isn't over. More like the scarcity has demotivated people from going on with their searches. That, and the failed attempts with legislation has probably...

    Is this unreasonable to ask...

    Just curious, and Switchblade, don't take this the wrong way, but what exactly do you think a persons reaction is going to be when they are threatened by a computer screen? I get it, the parents are a touchy subject, and if it were face to face I am sure the outcome would be different. But...

    Prisons

    One thing about that pic that is not true, at least not where I work. The guns. Unless you are in a tower or a gun rail of some sort, you arent armed. If you are within arms reach of an inmate and there is a gun, something went terribly wrong. Also, as far as defensive weapons, hands, feet...

    Is it really all that surprising????

    Yeah, I got that after reading up on him. Seems more like an attention whore with nothing really productive to do with his time.

    Is it really all that surprising????

    I am pretty sure its a spoof. I went to his facebook page and it seems he is either just trying to be a smartass or he is as anti-American as the Taliban. But it wouldn't suprise me, there seems to be a trend now that hating your country, its foundation, and reverse racism is what it takes to be...

    FPFRussia gets raided by Feds.

    Just out of curiosity, if a law was passed that made it mandatory to wear eye and ear protection while shooting, punishable by a fine, would you discontinue using them because you are now being told to do it? The bulk of those against it is less about safety and more about not liking to be told...

    FPFRussia gets raided by Feds.

    Ok, I went and read some of the mid-thread posts, and stubled upon this gem. Have you been asleep for the last 5 months? Have you not seen how the 2nd is under fire since a handful of psychotic hanger dodgers decided to kill dozens of people in the form of mass shootings? To defend what Slap...

    FPFRussia gets raided by Feds.

    My question is, was a search warrant even necessary? I mean, look at the whole picture, minus the dead partner. 1. Posts videos to a public venue on the internet. 2. Makes no effort to to conceal identity. 3. Has done all this for several years. With regards to the use of...

    Another LE killing

    Well it didn't take long for folks to lose interest in all the anti-gun stuff. Gunfighter, all I saw was a link, and your statement is vague and multi-directional. Same for HighBinder. In the past, you have been one to jump on the shirt-tail of any lets-slam-a-cop thread. Lately you are more...

    Anyone getting their SWFA orders?

    Well the order I placed was actually half filled. They had 2 items of the 4. So in regards to them doing what was suppose to be done, I got nothing bad to say. In fact, I have nothing to really gripe about as far as SWFA themselves. The post is more about Bushnell and Magpul. I guess I should...

    Anyone getting their SWFA orders?

    This is in no way a slam on SWFA, not whining or complaining. Just curious if anyone has been getting their backordered stuff from SWFA. Specificly, Magpul MOE stocks, and Bushnell TRS25's. I know the vendors are stretched thin, just seeing if any progress is being made.

    I can't stand the anticipation.

    So I was a little late getting in the door, but I finally got me an AR15. Its called a COR15, and the few reviews I could find on it were good. I have a good gun store connection so I got it @ a little over $720/ taxes and all. It is a base model, collapsable stock, flattop/A2 front sight...

    Wal-mart marking ammo

    Re: Wal-mart marking ammo There is a local gun shop here in town that does that. Walmart would get an order of ammo, his "guy on the inside" gives him a call, he buys it all up, then sells it with a 65% mark up. In a small-ish, slightly isolated town, you either take a drive to the city...
