    Suppressors Form 4 wait time

    Out of my dozen cans approved this was by far the longest wait, I've moved so many times I about lost count, even put in a few form 4's while stationed in Japan. As long as your trust address doesn't change, being the physical location of the cans you're good. I hope you used your home of...

    Suppressors Form 4 wait time

    Form 4 trust mailed to Dakota Silencer 9 July 2016 sent to ATF on 12 July pending 25 July 2016 approved 25 June 2017 waiting on the call unfuckingbelievable, 11 months for a machined piece of titanium.

    Gunsmithing I want to build a spray booth...

    I'd check with local body shops, they upgrade every so often and you can pick them up pretty cheap. I picked up a used booth, side draft with filters, lights and fans for 1200.00. It's a bit of a PITA to haul, assemble and seal but for the price who cares, they are out there and most guys just...

    left eye doninant question

    I'm left eye dom but very right handed, I shoot rh and have trained thousands of Marine recruits to shoot the same with very high percentages. Sight picture and sight alignment is the same regardless of which eye you use so for me, dexterity and natural coordination far outweigh the dominant...

    7x50 binos what would buy

    If you're dead set on 7x50's I'd look for a pair of Zeiss classics, better yet just get a pair of those in 10x40 and be done with it.

    not standing for STAR SPANGLED BANNER...

    Those losers wouldn't shed one drop of blood for it much less have ever zipped up a body bag with a US Service member in it, I'd say 50% of the country could care less. No telling where our country is headed, it doesn't look good.

    Sniper and EOD

    My primary MOS was a Combat Engineer and out of the hundreds of land-mines that I've pulled from the earth in theater I've never even thought of shooting at one, it will not detonate unless you're lobbing in some HEDP 40mm. You would do more damage and scatter crap all over by shooting it...

    In need of new set of binos

    I'd look for a pair of Zeiss Classics 10x40, there are a few on eBay that look like new for under 800.00. FWIW, I have a few others that collect dust like Swaro EL's and Leica Ultravids, I bought them thinking they should be better but for me it wasn't so.

    Rifle Scopes Deciding on $1200 scopes.

    I have a few of each and I can honestly say that I never mess with the zero stop while hunting, I damn sure look and make sure it hasn't been bumped. Depends on how anal you are with knowing where your rifle is IAW your scope setup, MOAR, mildots, etc.... I kind of like the reassurance with...

    Good one, too bad nobody gets it and everyone on here should!

    Reloading equipment -- what else do I need?

    I'd say an RCBS Chargemaster should be on your short list, before you know it you'll have at least two! A Dillon swager is a must if you plan on any 5.56 mil brass, other than that the list looks good for starting. Good luck!

    FL sizing?

    Has anyone used the RCBS A/R series sb dies for 5.56 advertised as the black box dies? The reviews I've read are pretty heinous, most stating they are getting a lot of stuck cases. Wouldn't the normal .223/5.56 sb RCBS FL dies work just the same if you "squeeze" them a little more?

    how could this been avoided

    I totally see your point and don't disagree with the red flags, if you exit the vehicle and come after an agent you should expect to get shot at, every situation isn't the same. I wouldn't have shot at the guy once I ran his plates and noticed his wife in the vehicle while following them prior...

    how could this been avoided

    Hard to relate unless you've been there, looks to me like the officer failed, did he not run the plate and figure out who he was dealing with? If he couldn't figure out that he wasn't at risk, he's in need of some serious remedial training. As for the LEO vs. military analogies, it's not even...

    What do you guys (Marines) think of this?

    I'll comment on this after I retire in a few months, going against the grain these days will not get you anywhere except "Breitbarted" so I'll keep my mouth shut about this. My wife and I are both Marine SgtsMaj and there's no way I'd want my wife in that billet.

    Fat Bastard or Muscle Brake?

    Same for me with my 300 RUM but I wouldn't do it again, it's so loud that if you ever have to shoot it without earplugs you'll be hating life for a while. Get a can, tighter groups, damn near the same recoil as a brake and no hearing protection needed. Downfall is that you'll want to thread...

    Why don't snipers use "tuned" ammo?

    Bingo!!!! WGAF about MOA when we have a million other things to worry about while in theater, as long as we get the same grain projo and the bolt closes we're good. Our best shooters are rarely snipers, look up the division match & Marine Corps match score sheets, those are the guys that get...

    Maggie’s Walmart Army Ranger

    Glad to hear it, nimrods like him are the first to flee the country if we'd ever start up the draft again.

    Hunting & Fishing Foxpro or Wildlife Technologies

    X10, they pretty much become unkillable after an encounter or two with shots fired. You're screwed unless you can call at night or start baiting with a snare line which totally screws up your area for deer.

    Gunsmithing Clip slotting for M40 base on M700

    If your just looking to make a point that I didn't follow USMC protocalls well your right, I didn't. I didn't do it very often while on active duty either. It made me the best PMI in 1st FSSG and drove my section heads absolutely bat shit crazy. It's why I run my own ship now as a business...
