Cali Loses, Standard Mag ban unconstitutional
98Z5V replied to 98Z5V's topic in Firearm Industry News and Gossip
Last weekend, a couple Cali individuals came over here to my small town, and bought every 30-rd AR-15 mag that GunPusher John had, and bought out all his 20-rd .308 mags... Cleaned him out. They tried to bullshiit him when the total came out, and tried to get a discount "for helping his small business stay afloat" - that just pissed him off. He let them have all the .308 mags (something like 4 or 5 at the time), and only gave them 5 30-rd AR-15 mags. He let them have it, too. Zero discount, Full MSRP, MY customers get a discount, and I've never seen you boys before... You Get 'em, Tiger. -

With what the 2-1 decision was from 9th Curcus, and how it was written, with the Constitution-wording, 2nd Amendment wording, any everything - I think they KNEW where this was going. I think they specifically set up that decision to make it mandatory before the US Supreme Court... They planned that decision writeup... Trump 3D Chess, from Trump Appointees to the 9th Circuit... -
Obscure object of desire: Armalite AR-103GN18.

He bought the M-15 version - he's wanting to know about the AR-10 version. I'm saving him some skin, from these savages. They're Ruthless around here... -

Charlie - you owe be some beer, brother. You're looking at the 18" gun. I have the exact same gun, in the 13.5" version. It runs like a CHAMP. I didn't buy it - I did it different. I decided that THIS ONE was gonna be my experiment on the different platforms - DPMS LR-308 vs. Armalite AR-10. I built my 13.5" 3 Gun Armalite rifle with all Armalite guts - in Aero M5 receivers. If you're wondering whether this gun will run, be flat shooting, and be badass accurate - it will. My 13.5" shocks me at what it can do. I think @Robocop1051 is secrectly "more in love" with this one, than he is with my Mossy Shockwave... -
I'm out. Not shooting it. I've shot your fukin' 10mm "warm" loads through a handgun. I'm not shooting this thing and cutting off my right shoulder. I'm just sayin'... I wanna see YOU shoot this thing first... 🤪

I still can't believe how bad he treated you, as The Official Sherpa, when we were shooting at the Casa Grande Range. THAT was BAD... I don't even think he gave you a hug at the end...

It takes measurement of the case after you size it, and the adjustment of the sizing die. After that, you'll get "the feel" and hit it every time.

They just to be more crazy than me, brother. That's all I'm looking for in a relationship...

Fall is so close to SHOT that you might as well bring it - we'll shoot that fucker if I can find the operational parts - then we take them back out and you drive it back with you for the next one in Jan... At this point, I'm sure it's got your DNA all OVER it...
-
That means you're IN for the Shoot, brother!!! Fuk YEAH!!! I have the firing pin- we had to disable it to present it at SHOT. FML - now I need to find the firing pin and spring... You know he snuggles it, anyway...

There's some hot ones incarcerated - this isn't the first time jailbabes has come up here - I write to a dozen or so.

Something is happening between the disconnector, and the front of the trigger/hammer interface. When you hold it to the rear after firing, the disconnector is holding onto the hammer. When you release, and here that "click" (normally) - that's the disconnector letting go of the hammer, and the hammer getting caught by the front of the trigger. That's not happening, and it's releasing the hammer again. That's where to look - front of the trigger "bar", for lack of a better word, where it engages that notch in the base of the hammer.

Only if it's on an in-service weapon - not a new build. The Field gauge is only used on an in-service weapon, and no other time. A Field gauge should never be used to judge a new weapon, or it's headspace condition.

LR308 not stopping on bolt catch, beating up brass
98Z5V replied to Revelation's topic in General Discussion
Mainly speaking to the Gen Pop out here in the Prison Yard - and trying to head off the filing of the Hurt Feelings Report to the Administrators, if it was gonna head that way. No worries, and glad you took it like you took it - which is the way it was intended. It wasn't intended to go after you, in a personal way. We'll get your gun sorted out. Have no fear. -
Good news, here!

OHHH, BROTHER!!! HE is gonna LOVE THAT COMMENT, right there... You turned that one FAST as fuk!...
-
@Lonewolf McQuade is gonna LOVE that one...

Hey, brother - don't ever forget that I'm HERE for you, no matter what you need. I'm also here to help all the window-lickers in the back of the bus, because we just can't leave them behind. One day - we're gonna NEED those fuckers on OUR side... Watch this quote wind up on a CNN News feed somewhere... HEY!!! CNN!!!... Lick THIS!!...

@billymagg - this is our shooting range, brother... THIS is the SDTF... I wouldn't kid you about something like this... My brother, @blue109 on the gun... How far you wanna go is up to you, and your gun, man. We can accommodate you...
-
Oh, I suspect that you might be fukked, brother. See, now you'll have family in Tucson - that's where DM AFB is... and the main shooting range of the crew here,during the shots - is just a tiny bit WEST of there. I think @billymagg wants us to look out for the youngin's - but once billymagg comes out here - he's DONE... First time we hear about it, we set up a "local shoot" - same place, brothers, SDTF, and THEN we hook him for one of the major shoots. I think billymagg don't know what he just got himself into, here... EDIT- SDTF is the Secret Desert Test Facility...

That next piece of information in the story is exactly it, brother. Tracking is looking at what's supposed to be there - and is different. You have to be able to pick out what's different, than what it's supposed to be. Tracking PEOPLE is way different. Toe digs, heel digs, impression depth - tell you alot about what just crossed your terrain - if you KNOW you terrain, which is step 1. You can get to a point where you can look at a sand wash, look at a bunch of prints, and pretty much determine how many of them there were, how much of a load they were carrying, and what speed they were moving at. Impression depth, toe digs and heel digs tell you all that. Step 1 is finding out what's supposed to be there, and that next piece of information in the story is finding what is different, from what's supposed to be there - that's the only clue you're gonna get, tracking something. You are tracking something, and it's gonna disturb nature, when it moves - you'll either see what it disturbed, or you'll miss it. Whether you find it, depends on your perception skills. Miss it, or don't miss it - when it turned a corner or stepped over a rock - it disturbed something. You,... you have to find that something that was disturbed... Broken grass straw, turned branch, missing moss off a rock, twist in the dirt, leaves missing from a tree branch... If it's not right, then it's not right - and something that was an outside force caused it - the wind didn't do it - and that's what you're looking for... Something forced what you're seeing there, on the ground, dirt, grass, terrain... That's your clue - keep going, because you're on the right track... Before you think you'll be a tracking ninja - you need to get into your terrain and you need to find out "what RIGHT looks like..." You need to know your surroundings. Drop you in the north woods of Michigan, and tell you "TRACK!" ... Well, WTF is normal here, man?... Dump you into Afghanistan, and tell you to track people... "Shiit, Bro - this is all ROCK up here at 8k feet - WTF am I LOOKING FOR up here, besides people shiitting in the ROCKS?!!?..." Sounds crazy, but that's all part of it. It's not the same, everywhere, and it depends on what you're tracking, and where you're tracking it. Blood trail from a deer is child's play. It's bleeding. If you didn't find it, it's because you missed the end of the blood trail, whe it piled up into something - because that's what they do. They're dead,know they're dead,and the pile up into the underbrush... Calm down, go back to "last blood" - and start your re-track from RIGHT THERE. If you've already BEEN everywhere else - that deer or orther critter is within 50 yards circumference from that last blood. I guaranteed it - it just piled up so hard, in that last panic, that it buried itself in dirt - and you can't see it... Tracking is a skill - but it's also an artform. I'm definitely not at any "artform" level. That's a different breed of man, right there. I've worked with two people in my entire life that were like that, and it's pretty fucking scary, what they see and know, when they're walking. The one guy (brother) that made the biggest impression on me, and influenced me the most, was a Hopi Indian, and he was an 18C, Special Forces Engineer. For a 5'4" dude that weighed about 170lbs - he was an unstoppable force, all by himself. Lifetime lessons from him, just watching him work, and do what he needed to do. Irwin R. (Ernie) Pohleahla - I hope you read this brother. Search me out if you find it.

If I get one used, and it's a nice rig, I'll lay that thing aside for you, brother. I'll have it pulled, until you could get here - and I'd make sure they know that we only need to pay the bills on it - not make money. Hey, it's my way to talk you into a road trip down here, right?... Come down to Fall Shoot with Eric - leave Fall Shoot with Eric towing a rental trailer with your new RZR 900 on it - back home to you... I'll do what I can, brother, rest assured...
