    Someone murdered Charlie Kirk

    I saw that a couple of hours ago. No, there is no steel plate there. His shirt simply has a fold in it and as you look down, you’ll see his pectoral muscles and torso shape are followed by the shirt. Plus earlier pictures show nothing. It’s more Internet, BS. SirHR.

    Someone murdered Charlie Kirk

    I just used a four-jaw chuck today on the Gap bed LeBlonde to hold and skim this irreplaceable 1923 car brake drum... The only way to line it up and get it square off two bearing surfaces 4" apart... is with a four jaw chuck. 2 hours setup time... 1 hour cutting time. So there is that! Four...

    Someone murdered Charlie Kirk

    You might have to Mansplain "Headstock" to some... Mansplain = Man Explaining. Headstock = the hole up the middle of the lathe chuck and geared part of the lathe... that determines how big or long a piece of metal will fit up there. Lathe = Big spinny thing that is used to make round...

    Someone murdered Charlie Kirk

    Exactly. And I don't think a suppressor 'was' used. I think it was Mic anomalies. And someoene here who said they had a relative at the event said the 'boom' was obvious on the ground. "Spike" sounds are not picked up by voice mic's easily. Sirhr

    Someone murdered Charlie Kirk

    Any and all can be threaded for a suppressor. But it's not just 'Run a die over it... . But like I said... can it be done? Sure. The cruder the tools availalbe, though, the greater the skill to make them work. It can be done. I am just thinking that this rifle almost certainly did not...

    Someone murdered Charlie Kirk

    You know how many deer have been shot at 200 yards with a 'sporterized' mauser? Minute of pie plate is what it takes. That's what the fudds sight in on. That's a 12" circle at 100 yards. So a center mass shot at a large guy at 200 yards (or 200 feet.... I am not sure which any more) even...

    Someone murdered Charlie Kirk

    No, you can hold in a collet and run with a live center. As long as the action will fit up inside your headstock... or your barrel is long enough to pass through the headstock. See some pictures I posted in the suppressed Contender thread. Done it a ton of times. Most of the time I will cut...

    Someone murdered Charlie Kirk

    Tap and die kits with a hand-holder? Sure, if you want a baffle strike or about a dozen other things to go wrong. Without fixture, alignment, proper OD on the barrel (to match the major diameter of the thread), etc. etc. etc. you are going to gall the front of your rifle... Not saying it...

    Someone murdered Charlie Kirk

    So if this was an older pencil barrel Mauser, that might’ve been someone’s deer gun, was it suppressed or not? I’m still with one of the early folks here who said the microphones may not have picked up the boom, but definitely caught the sonic shock of the bullet. Just curious because you don’t...
