When it's folded, there's a blocking plate that moves out to lock the bolt carrier in position - you could shoot it once, but it wouldn't cycle. I know that blocking place is strong as hell, but I'd think it would damage the device. <dontknow> I like that Gen 3 setup - that might have to go on the 9mm pistol. <thumbsup>

This sums up the need, versus the intended use, pretty well. I think it all comes down to this: "Point of view is everything here. If SWAT members show up in a fortress on wheels to rescue you or your child, or to pick up a wounded officer, it’s insulting to even be arguing about the sticker price. On the other hand, if the same buggy trundles down the driveway to deliver a foreclosure notice, take away the kids in a custody dispute or confiscate the guns … you might be more likely to subscribe to the “jack-booted thug” view of increasing government power." Whether they need it or not - located close to a very large metropolitan area. If they can honestly put themselves in a situation that has truthfully happened in the past, and can say, "during THAT situation last year (**or whenever**), we could have used something like that..." If they can do that, they'll probably be in another situation like that in the future. No such thing as coincidence.

^^^ That's our "IN" right there!

$hit, if I count bolt guns into the mix, I've got about 9 .30-caliber rifles. I think the question was about semiauto .308s, though... <dontknow> It's all about the FACTS, right? You're right. It's a simple math problem. Actually, I jointed this site on or about January 10th, 2010. Today is April 28th, 2014 (for me right now). In 1569 days, I have 8865 posts with this one. That's 5.65 posts per day. You made your first post here on Feb 4th, 2014, and have 306 posts to date - 28 April 2014, again, by my time. In 83 days, you have 306 posts. 3.69 posts per day (with mathematical rounding that you do in grade school). You're trying to insinuate something about the number of my posts, when I've got two more posts per day than you? I guess that's how you do your math - like a politician? We can turn statistics any way you want. If you want to go there. That doesn't really "peer into my personal problem," as you state. Just shows that you don't know what you're talking about. Again. Oh, and I was never LE. Never claimed to be. Never, not once, ever on this board, or anywhere else. Just so you know. <thumbsup>

Those pigs are in bad shape... <lmao> AWESOME!!!

Yep, I'll combine the two closest ones into an oval track...

That's me, with firearms, and anything with an internal combustion engine. Buy, don't sell... :eek: I'm NOT a hoarder... :ugone2far:

You didn't miss that bipod inside joke, did ya?... It was up there. DNP did it... :banana: Again. <lmao> <thumbsup> Excellent job, Dirk. I was ready, but saw that you already got it. :happydrunks:

YEAH!!!! <lmao> One of my favoritest lines ever!... :hethan:

<lmao> <laughs> Ron to the rescue!...

Should be more than a stock bike, which was right around 60hp. I need to see what it does, anyway. I need more jets, before I start, so I can run the jetting up and see how it does. Screwy thing about a dyno, and tuning a 2-stroke - you don't tune based on A/fr. The smoke in a 2-stroke will screw up and air/fuel ratio monitor pretty bad. You just have to tune to the jetting changes. Run it, check numbers, change a jet and run it again against the numbers. You'll only be able to change one jet at a time and watch progress, until it starts coming back down again. Then you know where the power mark was and what jet that was. I always tune a 2-stroke with 15% brake on the drum, to simulate the load on the engine in sand. Here's what I did on my first-overbore (66.25mm piston) on the 250 2-stroke quad: Here was the tuning I did on the M109, after pulling the secondary throttle plates - Initially, with the secondaries out, when you'd mash it, it would shoot to over 18:1 A/fr. Not good. Tuned it in to pull a consistant 12.75:1 A/fr, just going a little lean at redline... I really like that bike - over 100 lb/ft of torque from 2,250 RPM all the way to redline... >:D :hethan:

High 80s easily, if I can find a stretch just a little bit longer than what I was on. And it gets there right now. One way I can find out is to take it to the old shop I worked at and strap it down on the dyno. The bonus is getting a Hp and Tq graph on it.

Love those little bastards, fillet them, batter them, cook some mushrooms... As a kid, I'd hit the reservoir early in the morning, right after a paper route. Bluegill, crappie and eggs for breakfast. <thumbsup>

I was up on the tank most of the time - had no idea how these tires were gonna be, no clue. Didn't know if they'd grip and send me on my back, or be so old and hard that they'd just burn out and get no traction. The hazards of used tires. I really want 17" wheels for this bastard, and real sportbike tires. I'd like to get them out more and get more time on it, but I don't know if the local PD will be listening for the magic sound of 2-stroke now... <lmao>

What gas block do you have? It'll probably stick out a little. Micro gas block with a 12.875" rail on one of mine - rail comes directly to the end of the gas block. It more depends on the gas block you have, but something is gonna hang out, I suspect...

There were no crashes - there was also a little white Ford pickup that pulled in there for some reason. Dude was parked on my prime #1 selection of road for a "dragstrip." I had to improvise, and run other smaller roads. I kept up on the tank to keep the damn thing from looping out from under me, but I did scoot back and let it lift on one short stretch. From experience, it flips over on it's back in an amazingly quick amount of time - I wasn't doing that on asphalt, in a t-shirt. Damn thing gets up to speed quick, though. Those tires grab. Got about another hour before the vid is complete. Oh, the rest of the afternoon, there was a cop car sitting under a shade tree in that "neighborhood..." - saw him sitting there during two different trips to the store. I need to take this thing down to Tucson to the supermoto track...
-
It does burnouts like a possessed beast. Good thing is, I don't care about the tire, and it didn't cost me anything but the time changing it. I'll get you guys a burnout vid... <lmao> Still have some time left uploading the "empty neighborhood..."
-
Brilliant idea came to me at work yesterday - tons of take-off tires outside, in the tire bins. One guy was working on something, and he says, "What size if the rear wheel n your CR again?" 18"... He hands me a tire. I went out back, dug out an old 21" for the front, and started changing tires last night. There's an unfinished neighborhood right beside ours, only thing that was originally developed was all the paved roads and stop signs. Just got back from running it over there. WOrking n uploading the vid now. This thing is ridiculous with street tires on it... :hethan:
-
Yeah, I might not have the choice. I might drop, roll, roll, roll.... tumble tumble, slide... roll, roll, ... THUNK! Stop. Trial run was successful. Video coming soon...
-
That's exactly why I've only been using the once fired NATO brass to convert cases. <thumbsup> Some are on their 4th reloading, and still looking good. Not that "looking good" is the indication that they're not work hardening, but... <lmao> No splits in the case mouths yet.
-
Be patient, be patient. I'm working on it. I hit a delay last night. Right back at it right now... Won't take much longer...

And yet again , more ammo for the DHS
98Z5V replied to survivalshop's topic in Firearm Industry News and Gossip
I am completely in agreement with you on that, brother. Completely. I really do think it's this administration that's buying up the ammo for the sole purpose if limiting the availability to the public. Convinced without a doubt. It's as much about "buy bulk and save" as Clive Bundy's ranch is about the desert tortoise. There's very "hidden agenda" things going on below the surface lies. -
I'ma damn idiot for even attempting this. I'm 1/2 done right now, and working on the other 1/2... This will not work out well for me. I can feel that right now.
