Sure as hell is !!!

Welcome to the site from Gulf Coast Texas.

Nothing surprising here. SG never packs ammo worth a damn if it's less than a case. I've received packages from them with ammo loose and rolling around in the box. Very unprofessional and ridiculous.

The police are EXACTLY the source we don't want approving "permits" or anything else for that matter. This will only cause a police state to rule alongside if not in addition to corrupt and totalitarian politicians. This is not being a tinfoil hatter ... this could very easily happen here. Oh hell no we don't want this Euro-Brit-Aussie nonsense at all. It reminds me of the firearms laws in the Netherlands. I lived there for 4 years and I know what it's like to live in a place with screwed-up firearms laws with rules and requirements like this. HELL NO !!! If we allow the lunatic communist liberals to have their way this is the light side of what we'll wind up with, if we're lucky. It would be far easier to force their expendability to the surface and reduce their numbers (i.e. fight them in the streets) so this political football they've enjoyed passing around in the past is finally deflated and put to rest.

These laws being written the way they are allows for loose interpretation by liberal corrupt judges, thus allowing new precedents to be set in out stare decisis system of law(s). It's a down-side for sure. Like my wife said once in so many words; "The communists will not come for your guns head-on. They will first go after your ammo and spare parts. They will get those restrictions passed or figure out a way to control the ammo situation. Afterwards they will dance around the other issues little by little. One day you will realize they've changed it all". Unfortunately I fear she is right.

As we've discussed on here before ... these communists are simply chipping away at our stone. They're eroding us little by little. They've started the brainwashing to that end in the 80(s) long before Columbine and they get way with continuing it unchecked. Once they raise our kids to hate guns the 2nd. Amendment is gone. Eric-the-Hater Holder even said this himself years ago. They know this alone is working for them and they've no plan to stop it until they are FORCED. The funky laws being passed and enforced by the various commie states these days are succeeding because these laws are intentionally written in total confusion and ambiguity however liberals have learned that once the legislation passes as-is their hardest part of the battle is almost over. The bottom line In passing such nonsense is because it allows liberal crooked judges to legislate from the bench easier and set new precedents I case law(s). Such is life in the stare decisis legal system. As I've said on here before ... it aint going to end until we FIGHT THEM IN THE STREETS. Sometimes I feel that the sooner that specific party gets started the better off we all are.

It would've been cool to jump on one of these. The retro version Brownells is doing is really very close to the original they had on display. I can't remember if they said the mags for that one is Brownells-proprietarial or not.

Yes I already have that in the 5.56 calibration and I'm quite pleased with it. Actually brought my eyesight back to what it was half my life ago. Glass is very clear for that type of optic. I got the 5.56 version earlier this year from Optics Planet. Had it out to the range once on the BCM A4 rifle and it functioned real well with the zero never drifting at all. The 7.62 calibration I ordered late Friday from Botach Tactical for a little over $500.00, which is a significant sale price and free shipping. Steiner is phasing the 5X out and replacing it with a 4X model that is supposedly upgraded. Steiner had an example of it at the NRA convention earlier this month. It was pretty much the same optic but with some subtle changes. Personally I prefer the 5X they're phasing out to what I saw the replacement is. By the way ... Brownells had a functional example of the retro ArmaLite AR10 there on display. IMHO it was quite impressive. Very light weapon for the 7.62x51 NATO caliber. The charging handle was interesting indeed. ArmaLite had an example of one of the same AR10 originals there but understandably encased. IMHO Brownells did a very good job and got their version real close. Here's wishing everyone a blessed Memorial Day weekend.

Ammo ... and ammo Steiner 7.62 5X prism battle optic.

LOL ... yes indeed. Ted Nugent wrote an awesome song about this; "DOG EAT DOG"

Welcome to the site. Enjoy your time here. Be advised this is the last point of no return for your wallet.

PRICELESS ....

I checked out some of the EoTech scopes a couple weeks ago at the NRA Convention. They were nice. DSG right now has a sale on EoTechs too.

Welcome to the site from Gulf Coast Texas. Enjoy your time here. Be prepared to spend some money.. ?

Beautiful country indeed. I thought Alberta was beautiful also. Too bad I couldn't get to Banff.

From my understanding the guvmint already has a real good idea what all is out there just by the 4473(s) alone. All of this information is in a database somewhere along with the NIICS information that is NOT supposed to be stored as records. Not all firearms are with the initial purchasers but enough of them are. The guvmint at least knows what has been sold initially. IMHO what this translates to is the reason for the push for a formal registry (like Canada had but just trashed after 10 years of getting nowhere) is to simply use the existence of it to falsely justify charging another tax. This revenue will allow the Democrats to pocket and spend more of our money they way they want as opposed to WE THE PEOPLE spending the funds the way WE want. The registry will cost nowhere near the amount of tax revenue charged and collected however Congress will lie and claim otherwise to avoid being called out for "taxation without representation". Simply put, this is more communist bullpoopy. For the longest time I've seen the reason(s) for gun control as basically 50% pushing for it because they are paranoid, dominating and controlling communists that want as little resistance as possible when they move to take over the country. The other 50% calling for gun control doesn't really care about firearms and/or firearms issues at all yet they see 2nd. Amendment issues (like immigration issues) as another political football (for votes) and an extra revenue source. Both sides are treasonous and need to be dealt with accordingly.

Oh man this one is bad ... so damn shameful ...

Awesome price. $3.00 less per box than it was when it went on sale last year it seems. Thanks for posting. I'm going to get some of this and the 168(s). Hoping they put the 64 grain Gold Dot back on sale too.

Good one ...

Just ordered SB Tactical SBA3 pistol stock set. Got a 7.62x39 pistol in the works.
