Thank you for your service. That can't be said enough to the folks who have kept this nation intact and free over the years.

Exactly. The new Administration needs to replace all of the Schedule C (SES political appointees) positions. While these are often then given to friends as political favors the Trump folks really need to think about giving these positions to experienced managers with some experience in the area. Their primary task will be to identify the Schedule A & B (career SES) folks who will be most Clinton or Bush W hires that were promoted under Obama that are wedded to the Obama agenda. If the Schedule Cs are good, they can work to move them to where they might consider retirement or, at least, to a position where they can do the least harm, using reorganization as a quick fix. At the same time they need to identify replacements for these folks who will be supportive of the Trump agenda moving forward. JT is correct, if the new Administration doesn't focus on this in the first six months it will take forever to clear out this part of the swamp.

72 here yesterday and today!

For manics yes, but there are some who will need Thorazine, particularly Democrats.

Lived in Colorado (Evergreen, west of Denver) for many years but back in the 80s. It is scenically beautiful but it has been changing rapidly since pot became legal for recreational use (at least according to friends that still live there). Winters can be bad in Pueblo. There are some red areas in West Texas that might suit you better, actually many red areas outside of El Paso, Lubbock and San Antonio. These all have a better climate but are not as scenically pleasing (except for areas around Alpine and Fort Davis).

Look for a prohibition on carrying both guns and ammo on airplanes. It will start out as both but may be backed off to guns but no ammo. I don't think the House or Senate Republicans have sufficient stones to table the effort.

Prayers on the way.

Trump give him a metal? You realize Trump has a CCW!

Anapra is about 4 miles from my home.

The metal he should be receiving is made by Sierra.

For 80% .308 lowers I like both Daytona Tactical and M1 Machining. Haven't tried the LaRue trigger but I do have a couple of Geissele G2S two stage triggers that are about the same price when on sale and like them very much.

Sometimes a rescue dog (ours on the table) doesn't understand that they can be seen when hiding behind the flowers.

The Russians hacked it!

Happy New Year all. And PLEASE, if you drink, don't drive. The fatality review committee meetings are one of the worst parts of my job!

Then again.......

Merry Christmas

My Miculek brake does the same thing, at least that is what my shooting buddy says. He usually moves 2 or 3 benches down when I have the .308 with the Miculek out.
