It's literally 4 months out - that's gonna be a tough deadline, brother. Zach is a badass, though, but that's still a PUSH... You coming down? Bring 500Blk... We've already proven the 338LM, let's run 500Blk... We can let THE BIG ONE wait for closer to SHOT...

If you're not here for this Fall Shoot, then you won't get the head's up on it, or shoot it. If you're HERE for the Fall Shoot... you'll shiit yourself...

Unexpected BONUS in my brass purchase, and they're BAD... Thanks, Pete!!!

I only have one with that PDQ bolt catch/bolt release, and it's on the 25-45. I love it, too. WAY-smart design, and we can add that to any lower receiver. Damn good lookin' gun, brother. Call Bear Creek about that barrel - I talked to them at SHOT, and their stuff has a pretty solid guarantee. If you tell them the issue, I'm sure they'd send you another barrel with zero dollars expended. Teal Blue Bravo (that's an Infantry reference) is the only company that makes that PDQ, for those that didn't know. Several companies sell it. Support the source, if you can. I'll be adding more, over time, but I've never prioritized it. https://www.tealbluebravollc.com/

Because. Deadpool is a complete Badass. I had to fire this one up after watching DP2 again... She's my age. Completely Smashable...

Found a really good article, and a completely different viewpoint that I haven't seen presented before: https://gatdaily.com/self-selection-an-overlooked-factor-in-the-gun-debate/?trk_msg=0MA1MDNVQIA4R8NFIHNA13S0I8&trk_contact=8V0L65B89JG3CKL2PPP2IG35AC&trk_module=new&trk_sid=2ISK88U04FM0CBE6H9A5BK4JCC Self-Selection: An Overlooked Factor in the Gun Debate By DRGO June 26, 2019 From our friends at DRGO (from pitchfork.com) It’s probably not what you think, so let me explain the context. One of the obvious missions of the anti-gun lobby is to magnify the negative consequences of widespread gun ownership in America. As you probably know, they do this in several ways. Most notably, while discussing rare and highly disturbing crimes like mass murders of children, they throw out a number that represents all types of gun deaths. This distracts attention from the fact that most gun deaths are suicides and most gun murders are criminals killing each other. Misdirection is a cheap trick, but it keeps working well enough that it’s been a go-to tactic of anti-gunners for years. Another tactic is to compare U.S. gunshot deaths with a carefully selected group of “developed” countries. If you cherry pick the data carefully, you can make the U. S. look like a very dangerous place that is desperately in need of more authoritarian gun laws. A more realistic measure of violence is to compare our country with all countries and use the overall murder rate rather than just gun deaths. If you do that, the U. S. is right in the middle of the pack. There is no tsunami of death—our murder rate has been declining for decades. If you look beyond the primary source of homicides, gangs and drug criminals in certain cities, America is one of the safest countries in the world. Not bad for a stressed-out, multi-ethnic society with lots of freedom and from 350 to 600 million guns in civilian hands. So, with such a huge number of guns in a turbulent society, why isn’t our overall murder rate sky high? One reason is never mentioned in gun law discussions. No, I’m not going to throw statistics at you. This theory is strictly based on my own observations, what I call “ground truth.” Everyone in my large circle of friends knows I’m a gun guy. I’ve taken many novices to the range to introduce them to safe gun handling. It’s one of my passions. I’ve had many more chat with me privately about their personal feelings regarding gun ownership. I’ve learned that people generally know when they are not suited to taking on that responsibility. I’d love to have a dollar for every time someone told me they don’t trust themselves to keep a gun around. They worry about their temper, their ability to react appropriately in an emergency, their use of intoxicants, their relationship issues and other factors that affect their mental state. The biggest reason we don’t have an astronomical rate of gun deaths is simple: people generally choose the best option for their own circumstances without orders from the nanny state. This “self-selection” contradicts the idea that we need to be micro-managed for our own safety. As a result of self-selection much of what the anti-gun lobby claims they want to accomplish has already been done individually by the people themselves at zero cost. No tax money expended, no freedoms restricted, no need for state-mandated mental health exams. This theory of self-selection is one of several important reasons that gun control laws have no measurable effect. It’s been ignored in the gun control debate, probably because it can’t be weaponized in the war on liberty and our civil rights. . . —Dr. Michael S.

I'm DEEP into this 9x39 dream right now. Barrels and dies available from KAK, and that's what kicked it all off. I hate getting emails like that... https://www.kakindustry.com/catalogsearch/result/?q=9x39 After getting KAKs email that they now have dies available, it led me to find out more, and I found this article: https://www.rifleshootermag.com/editorial/the-9x39-a-new-cartridge-from-russia/329695

I used the NM trigger spring and DMR secondary spring in one setup, just to define that second stage a little better - and that is one SWEET setup.

Something WAY bigger than 338LM and 500 Blackout... I'm just sayin'... @Robocop1051, have I said too much, brother? You can smoke my comments if need be.

My two ex-wives and one ex-GF fall into this category... I'm lucky to even be here with you all right now... I shiit you not...

Just zero hands-on experience with those, so I can't really comment. Read plenty of reviews, which are good - but I've never shot them or owned them, so I'll stay out of that as far as comments on it go... If I comment on something, I either own it, shot it, fucked it, fought it, rode it, drove it, or almost died trying to get away from it...

I don't get it, though - I'm hornier than a 3-peckered Lemur...

Maybe - but I don't care where they are or what they're doing... They're torturing someone else right now, and not me...

I've had two ex-wives that are JUST like that... I'm just sayin'...

Man, ain't THAT the damn truth! I keep picking the crazy ones. I need to take @DNPs advice from now on...

9x39 is my new fantasy, brother...

Red, we are NOT a good influence here... I'm just sayin'...

You never need a bigger safe... you just need another safe... Who's gonna buy the old one, and will you get what you paid for it? Hell, it's already paid for - might as well just get another one...

That's their GOAL, brother. You ever read the stories of the last gun shop in San Francisco? https://www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/article/San-Francisco-s-last-gun-shop-gives-up-the-fight-6601929.php

Comments above in red.

You can just buy it from Armalite. AR-10 Carbine Gas Tube, part # 10007005. Shows out of stock on the website, but call them on the phone and ask if they have any. I scored 2x Carbine tubes and a Rifle tube - that were out of stock on their website - by calling and asking if they had any. I live close, so I picked them up that day. LOCAL: 623-780-1050 TOLL FREE: 800-336-0184

Just wail 'til you fuckers see what's coming up...

I fire this one up for a "stereo test" after installing a bitchin' audio system. The key is to start LOUD, and let it rip... It'll tell you if the system sucks or not...

Congrats, Belt! You've done well, my friend...
