Then make it free! I realize it will make your job tougher for a few years but the weak and stupid would eventually be filtered out.

Weather forecast is a bunch of click bait nowadays. Hard to even find a forecast that just gives you the straight up temperature, always tell you what it "feels like," always focused on feelings, dumbasses can't dress right and don't move there arse then I suppose it is dangerous. There is something about listening to all these snowflakes whine about the "cold" that makes me grin.

I am all for taking the reins off law enforcement when needed but I think there may be another angle to play at the same time. Decriminalize all drugs, take away the incentives that helps make the drug world violent. That would drastically cut down on the number of these types of raids needed. Then enforce the law on those that still see the need for violence against the innocent with a violence ten times what those scum can imagine.

My response to schit laws like this is buy another lower.....or two. I'm over asking politicians to help, I'm over all the lobby groups that say they can help keep the 2A, that ship has sailed. It's on me to take care of me and mine now, that is my central focus going forward, weather the storm while the fertilizer heals the tree. Going John Galt..................

TRUTH! Some of my favorite range trips are the ones that I don't send a round. Seeing the grin on a youngsters face when they start connecting with that steel is priceless. When the grand-kids start competing on their own for best group of the day I know I got them.

I have a couple magnifiers and like them but certainly wouldn’t replace my 1x6 scopes with one. With QD mounts they don’t have to stay on the weapon but can hang out in a pack till needed. I also noticed that friends and family like to use them when banging steel at 100-200 yards, always more fun to make hits. The rifles and pistols I have red dots on get left in the rack more without the magnifier, anything I can do to encourage more people to shoot a variety of weapons the better. If I were only allowed one optic a magnifier wouldn’t be it, might not even be a third or fourth choice but still glad I have them.

Dunkin' Coffee Porter from Harpoon Brewery in Massachusetts. A roasted malt and espresso aroma. A heavily smoked malty flavor with hints of coffee and maybe dark chocolate which gets a little stronger as the beer warms. A nice balance of sweet and bitter and a not to thick, not to thin feel. Pretty well balanced but leans on the smoky side.

Building a lightweight .308 AR [progress thread]

Well done! -
Welcome from Iowa! No fret on the PSA, 98 has found a solution for all their issues, many here have good accurate PSA rifles.

Jingle Java from Bent River Brewing in Rock Island, Illinois. Not real strong on the coffee flavor, mostly toasted malt. Hints of cinnamon and caramel with a touch of a boozy flavor.
-
that and they only hold ten rounds, something that heavy should have like 50!
-
Wouldn't own one myself but I know of two High Point 40's that have been beating around in a farm truck and a tractor tool box for 8+ years. Neither gets more than a few hundred rounds a year but neither has been cleaned short of what you can do with a shop rag without breaking them down, neither has ever failed. Reliability may not be their biggest issue.

Love the size and shape of the MBT’s shoe myself. Something about that wider surface that seems to give better control.

Yes, D. Wilson bolt headspaces for me on two of these barrels, I used the Sig bolt sold at CDNN in a D Wilson carrier. Had one barrel in both a Matrix and an Aero receiver with no function issues cycling by hand, built with the Aero due to the Aero rail not fitting the Matrix receiver. The gas block seating area is a bit short but caused no issues for me, I dimpled the barrel with my SLR jig and it sealed up fine. The gas tube was the only part not available off the shelf. Mine needed an 11 inch tube but since it is custom order anyway I would wait and measure it to be certain, can't imagine it would change on other brands but at $40 better safe than sorry. I tried the build having seen others on SigTalk comment that barrels and bolts on 716's are DPMS based, figured if it didn't work I had a spare for my P716, now I have a DI and piston 308 pistols.
-
Used one in a build already, it's DPMS based just like the Sig 716 bolt CDNN sells. Only custom part required for a build is a $40 11 inch gas tube from WOA. See the details here;

I think it matches the decor very well, nice looking stick.

They have the 308 version on sale again; https://www.cdnnsports.com/sig-sauer-716-12-5in-308-1-10-chrome-lined-barrel.html?___SID=U#.XEYJL1xKjb0

I am betting that is a Matrix receiver you have, they are billet receivers and leave some extra meat on them compared to most, those tabs that hang over the receiver on the Magpul loop end plates won't pass over on the Matrix.
-
That is just a basic end plate, no sling attachment capability.

Explains why that SFC didn't give a schit about my blown out knee, just wanted to know exactly where I left that chute! Yep, in a tree over there somewhere.....god damn Air Force idiots dropped us on the wrong side of the LZ with stiff winds, turned in to the lights but they just kept getting closer together. Nothing to do but tuck those boots tight under my balls and wait for the trees that I knew where there.

ZeeLander IPA from Toppling Goliath Brewing in Decorha Iowa, brewed with a hop from New Zealand, Nelson Sauvin . Has a citus/tropical fruit with a touch of dank pine smell. Starts with a big burst of bitter orange pith and a unique floral marigold flavor called out by the brewer, I'd swear they put marigold blooms in this beer. There is a dank piney note but not real strong. The bitter fades to a melon fruit with notes of a caramel malt. Leaves with a sweet floral note and opposite most IPA's of this style the bitter is all up front in a big burst then quickly fades. Has a resinous oily mouth feel that lingers on. Another very tasty beer from TG!
