I'd feel immensely better if the people making decisions about this country's future were in the immediate vicinity of a heavily armed populace... I hope DC gets covered up in 2nd amendment exercisers.

Not necessary, you did nothing wrong, I do appreciate the spirit of cooperation though. Carry on! <thumbsup>

I've always enjoyed the humor of it... Kind of gives me a channel to have a laugh at my survivalist side, and expend copious quantities of ammo on a light-hearted cause.

Welcome to the forums Rsquared!

Welcome to the forums! Enjoy yourself... ;D

...not bitter? Sounds like frog piss would taste like Cool-Aid compared to your kinda bitter.... <laughs> <lmao> <dontknow> <munch>

I do not disagree with your post, but as a moderator I merely want to point out that flaming isn't an occurrence here, nor should it be invited/suggested. I wouldn't even mention this if it hadn't been an issue in recent weeks. Nobody has license to flame anyone else here EVER. Anything that is derogative apart from good-natured joking will be promptly dealt with by the Mods/Admins. Now having said that, I don't see any indication whatsoever that you are any less than a fine upstanding member of our community. So please don't take this as chastisement, I'm just clarifying our position on troublemakers. Enjoy the forums! <thumbsup>

There are several companies who make custom AR-10 style barrels, most of them will offer any chambering you like. I'd say your biggest obstacle will be finding a suitable bolt.

The Defense approves you for the jury! Ladies and Gentlemen, I give you a Rickie Bobby School of Law Alumni.

Your Honor, I respectfully request that the Court allow me a Stay of Judgement until I can prepare exhibits A and B for the jury's examination!

Bear with us technical types, we like lengthy explanations... ;)

Christmas is already over for me... I went up to Ann Arbor, MI to see my wife's folks and have an early Christmas since my work schedule has me working Christmas day. I got: 1. RC helicopter and awesome Gerber knife - Wife 2. Eddie Baur pajama pants and long john undershirt - Bro-in-law 3. Bushnell 1000-yard laser rangefinder and Motorola Droid Bionic + handsfree kit - Mom & Dad-in-law 4. Pair of insulated leather gloves from Grandma-in-law 5. Pair of carpenter jeans from my in-laws collectively. Awesome Christmas, well worth the 10.5 hour drive from here!

Glad to have you! I'm pretty fond of old motorcycles of myself. Make yourself at home here, you'll fit in just fine!

Actually I think you sound exactly and I do mean EXACTLY like my cousin Brent, who is a big shot at Deutschebank in NY. I need to borrow you to set up a prank call with his wife...

It's pretty bad when your muzzle brake causes other people at the range to develop a flinch... <laughs> I just look at it the other way, once I can overcome flinching with that particular brake, everything else is a piece of cake! <thumbsup>

That son of a gun is a big brake but it works really well doesn't it? That's what I've got on my Frankengun build right now...

ESET takes pretty good care of me and mine, not too hard resources wise.

Nice! Stick with it, the bass is terrific fun. So far i'm enjoying the journey through bass guitar, standard guitar, and piano and organ.

It's always good to see another North Carolinian join, welcome to the forums!

I'm neither a soldier nor an officer of the law, and yet I consider myself a sheepdog. In my opinion, the essence of being a sheepdog is not in your profession, but in your character. It's a question of how you will respond when the rights and privileges that you hold dearest come under assault. It's not even a question of whether or not you are law-abiding, it's whether or not you are willing to defend and die for your principles when exercising them becomes contradictory to the law or common approval. I grant that the sheepdog allegory is not a perfect one, but it's close enough to pass the common-sense test, and that's good enough for me.

Let's be realistic here, that's money you could be spending on GUNS!!! :)

Be careful with potential innuendo, it's dangerous to feed the perverts! <laughs> <munch>

Welcome to the forums, hope you enjoy your stay!
