    PISTOL BRACE

    Slap the brace onto the tube and put a short upper on it. Take 2 photos, one showing complete rig and one closeup of serial number of lower. Do it to each lower and off we go. I suspect that there is no rule that says you can’t use modular parts like braces and uppers on many lowers. They...

    PISTOL BRACE

    The bump stock ban really was bullshit b/c it clearly failed the clear language of the statute. This is more fuzzy to me (just my opinion) b/c these “braces” are definitely being utilized as rear stocks to let the shooter hold the weapon as a rifle, which likely has a barrel of less than 16...

    PISTOL BRACE

    What ruling? I saw one regarding bump stocks but nothing about this.

    PISTOL BRACE

    I wonder if they really understand the nuance of this statement: “According to the Justice Department, manufacturers, dealers and individual gun owners have 120 days to register tax-free any existing short-barreled rifles covered by the rule. They can also remove the stabilizing brace or...

    I guess I'm an idiot and need some help...

    I guess I’m seeing his point. A more expensive rifle should be more accurate; arguably. Although I have personally seen this assumption to be proven untrue on several occasions with outliers on both ends of the spectrum. But all things being equal, once you establish that a xyz grain bullet...

    Oxford University and shooting in the UK

    Off topic - I did a semester at Oxford. Great experience. Played judo with the club team at the athletic facility. The track is there where bannister ran the first sub 4 minute mile. Those people drink like fish over there. Make sure you get to London to see some musicals or plays. Your wife...

    Sniping In The Ukraine

    My platoon had duty at one of the two guard posts on the DMZ (Ouellette and Collier). Knucklehead squad leader told me that he had spent the entire afternoon lasing the N. Korean soldiers with the big handheld lasers that our TOW units had. Definitely not eye safe. Told him to knock it off as I...

    Deadly Russian sniper captured by Ukraine after she was left for dead

    Not a declaration of war and no UN authorization. That makes her an illegal “unlawful” combatant. So she’s a murderer. Take her to the courthouse, convict her and hang her ass with no drop.

    PUTIN

    Ukraine voted for independence by over 90%. Sure they have corruption problems just like the USA, Greece, Italy, South Africa, South Korea and everyone else. I don’t know what’s so enchanting to some of you about a tyrant who happens to be bombing the shit out of civilians. He’s a war...

    Why do we pay taxes?

    1. I wonder what percent of the membership in here are connected to police or military service. Obviously you’re painting an awfully broad stroke of insult to the parties herein. 2. You should probably take a look at Hobbes’ Leviathan to broaden your understanding of the role of violence and...

    Sniping In The Ukraine

    Awfully hostile ad hominem attack on me for simply posting a link to drone footage of an anti-armor ambush. I was an anti armor platoon leader in South Korea many years ago. Thought it was interesting to see the footage. As to your gripe about media coverage, I don’t think there is any dispute...

    Friend died while waiting for suppressors, need help

    31 CFR § 240.15 - Checks issued to deceased payees. That’s an interesting idea but I would argue the payee is not deceased. The trust exists outside the life of the trustor. A trust is a stand alone entity and its life is dictated by the terms incorporated therein. If the trust owns the asset...

    Friend died while waiting for suppressors, need help

    You know the reason people create trusts is not usually to own NFA weapons, but to avoid probate in the first place. In other words people spend boatloads of dollars on attorneys to create trusts so there will not be an estate to probate, so there will be no administrator or executor...

    Just got back from elk hunting. Gun (Seekins Havak) was leaning against the tree outside the tent. Morning mocha was two starfuck vias and a pack of cocoa.
