Very curious about this. I've made a few great rifles out of them, and have a few more waiting on later builds. All are 100% perfect so far, even the half-dozen "blems" I bought that are perfect. What is out of spec? Pin holes? Magwell issue? I'm interested to hear what's wrong, and what they do about it. :-)

  Top of my head:   - Non-violent non-drug related felons may possess long guns   - Many federal AOW prohibitions are not unlawful   - Firearms may fire two shots with single trigger pull   - The entire 4473 process not a requirement to purchase under state law, some of the banned classifications of persons on it are not banned by state law, nor is lying on it a state crime.   - Not to mention manufacture or possession of any firearm covered by the TN Firearm Freedom Act.   Probably any number of other examples exist too.     - OS

The .gov teat is pretty hard to resist when it's spouting so much milk for the taking.  Couple that with how hard it is to get revenues increased at the local level, it's easy to see how this kind of system comes to pass for cash strapped departments.  The line between a local PD becoming an extension of the federal government is thinner than people think.

These arrived today!!! :D These are the RTIC 30oz and the Orca 27oz tumblers. I just ordered a 20oz Yeti and a 20oz Orca to compare. These 30oz and 27oz models will hold a LOT of beverage!

I'm gonna try to finish work early one day this weekend so I can shoot this thing and give you guys a report.

Even though covering overtime might seem like small potatoes that number could be huge. So having the Feds pay some of the jurisdiction's overtime bill would be a HUGE incentive to work with the ATF. I would also venture to guess that the department would also be given other perks for helping the ATF. The way things should be is the Feds stay out of state business unless the state requests their help. And even then the Feds involvement should be very, very small.

There's only one real solution here.....take it back and buy a Toyota  :taunt:  :hiding:  :whistle:

Here is a good deal going on with centerfire systems   https://www.centerfiresystems.com/REC0001.aspx Lower   https://www.centerfiresystems.com/ACC0024.aspx Upper   https://www.centerfiresystems.com/BBL0003.aspx Barrel   Each of these come with 3 free mags, i just ordered mine and cant wait for them to get here!

One has the take down and pivot pin holes way undersized. I use CMMG kits on all my builds. You can put the pins up to the holes and see how undersized they are. Conversely, the trigger pin holes or over sized. Again, I use CMMG kits and those pins about freely drop through. I suspect this one, which was bought from an online retailer, is probably an earlier lower from when tolerance issues with them ran rampant. The other has a "wobbly" mag well. Mags won't drop freely but otherwise it's okay. I've built 20+ rifles, both for myself and for friends and family, and usually its Anderson I see more of an issue with. Now, I'm not sure if they were from the earlier days or current. One of those things that if I get burned by, I tend to remember. Edit: yes, I also realize the issue with stacked tolerances. I've just never had issues with other sets.

Very nice

Those look great! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I love my 20oz Yeti - it is the perfect size for me. 

Strange, I've lost count of how many rifles I've built using Anderson parts and zero issues. They should remedy it for you if they're out of spec though.

They do look good, I'm in for 2

Saweeet :up: You must have like $1.98 in that system.

I took a buddy out hunting this morning for his birthday. We've hunted a few other days this season with no success. He closed the deal this morning on a pasture bird. "So he cocked both his pistols, spit in the dirt, and walked out in to the street."

Below are pics of my Spencer Carbine Model 1860, manufactured by Burnside. This weapon was a lever action repeater with 7 rounds of lead slinging awesomeness. As with all fine arms, this one is equipped with a bayonet, though I'm not sure when it would be used when opponents were using single shot muzzle loaders. This was the weapon used by cavalry in the Indian Wars until 1873. Below is part of an article from American Rifleman. "On a more serious note, simply put, the .52-cal. M1860 Spencer carbine was the most advanced carbine in service during the American Civil War. The tubular magazine, located in the buttstock, held seven rimfire cartridges. Lowering the operating lever, which also served as the trigger guard, ejected the fired case and automatically fed the next round into the chamber from the magazine. The firepower of the Spencer carbines was apparent in the action at Parker’s Store in the densely wooded area of the Wilderness on the morning on May 5, 1864. The 500 members of the Fifth New York Cavalry dismounted and formed a loose skirmish line, and there they were attacked by a division of Confederate infantry. For three hours the men of the Fifth held off the Southern attacks until they started to run out of ammunition for their Spencers, which forced the Federals to pull back. The Confederates opposing them believed that they had been fighting an entire brigade. The Fifth New York suffered about 80 casualties in the action. By September 1864, 9,000 Spencer carbines were in field service for the Union, and they were highly regarded. The field reports from 10 officers of the Fourth U.S. Cavalry rated the Spencer carbine the best arm in cavalry service. Brevet Maj. Gen. James Wilson felt that the Spencers were the best firearms ever put into the hands of the soldier. He stated that the Spencer “excels all others in use in durability, rapidity of fire, and general effectiveness.” On June 27, 1864, the Burnside Rifle Co. entered into a contract with the Ordnance Dept. to manufacture 30,500 .52-cal. M1860 Spencer carbines with deliveries completed by Aug. 31, 1865. The M1865 Spencer carbine was the standard in post-war service and remained in service into the middle 1870s. Spencers were replaced by the .45-70 Gov’t Model 1873 Springfield carbines

Beautiful rifle! One of these has been on my bucket list since I was about 11, after reading The First Fast Draw by Louis Lamour, in which the Spencer was prominently featured. Something about older guns like yours make me feel all nostalgic. :drool:

Looks great.  I wasn't sold in concept, but the pictures changed my mind.  I'll take one when they are ready for sale.

Awesome! They look great! I love my RTIC! I'm not sure about the ORCA, but RTIC offers a splash-proof lid for $5.99.

You can get the same effect by drilling a hole in a dime and placing it between your shell holder and die when screwing it in the press.  Just enough to back off the shoulder and not over work the brass.  I do it all the time.  

Time for the stars of the show....

I just might. I'm returning to work soon. I landed a pretty amazing job and we'll be fortunate enough to use my paycheck to pay bills and his will just be savings/fun/angry money.

One common criticism of billionaire businessman and presidential candidate Donald Trump is that he far too often speaks in vague generalities and rarely offers specifics about where he stands on the issues. That is no longer the case, at least regarding his stance on gun rights and the Second Amendment, as Trump just released his official policy position on his campaign website. “The Second Amendment to our Constitution is clear. The right of the people to keep and bear Arms shall not be infringed upon. Period,” the position paper began.    

How many days have they had possession of the vehicle?  Also if you are covered and they refuse to comply and you need a lawyer, you can ask they pay your fees too.   State laws for your reading   https://www.carlemon.com/lemon/tn_law.html

  That's an understatement...here's a sample from the past 48 hours: http://www.cnbc.com/2016/05/05/trump-signals-willingness-to-raise-us-minimum-wage.html http://www.wsj.com/articles/donald-trump-wont-self-fund-general-election-campaign-1462399502 ...Someone who would reasonably be considered a Democratic supporter will running his campaign finances: http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2016-05-05/trump-picks-former-goldman-partner-and-soros-employee-finance-chairman   Trump with a Soros linked money manager... :biglol: :rofl: :bowrofl:   He's still got a long way to go to catch up to #WhichHillary, but he's well on his way.

No they will not have to do any such thing. (The policia are goin to ultimately have to accept the fact that "Constitutional Rights" are rights that work everywhere...) The Police State has courts and jails, they get to take your money on the side of the road for no reason other than you have it in your possession...refusing to honor their oaths and suppressing Liberty are just what the Chiefs do these days.

I'm sure it was hard to admit that publically here, but THANK YOU!   It's a good reminder to all of us not to get complacent or rushed.

I'd give her 10k to elope.. Better to use the money to get ahead than spend on a wedding. But then there is the ex-wife giving advice. Ha

You need to check into the lemon laws in TN. I was in the automotive industry for 25 years and owned a Ford dealership for several years. I cannot imagine treating someone the way you have been treated. If a vehicle is down for so many days for repairs state lemon laws apply. I operated in NC so I don't know the laws for TN. Have you picked the vehicle up yet?

  I volunteer to be Spot's lackey... 

    Heh... my father-in-law offered me $10k to elope.  I told him he wasn't getting off that cheap. 

Clarksville Gun and Archery - has a great selection of Glock Blue Label in stock and it didn't take long for a neighbor to get one that had to be ordered.  Great service on multiple visits!  http://www.clarksvillegunsandarchery.com 

    Nah, he said he dropped the key fob in water a while back.  He knew it was malfunctioning and did nothing about it.  The fact that an unintended start didn't occur to him isn't the OEM's fault.            Kinda yes and kinda no.  Cars were a lot easier to work on back then, but you sure had to work on them a lot more often. 

  I'm sure that once again some anti-gunner or anti-TGOer has reported us falsely.  I've got to be honest:  I have zero interest in fighting Microsoft's arbitrary, inaccurate, and apparently easily manipulated "Smart Screen" warning every time it bubbles up.  Anyone with any sense will just disable that stupid feature or use a better browser like Google Chrome or Firefox.

"Facebook like"??? That's not a selling point for me :P

*Sigh*   I just got this one figured out.

Meh, smack some super glue on it and chug a beer. You'll be fine in the morning. You're a tough guy ;)

Glad you are here.   Feel free to let your lady friend know that reducing the number of firearms owned is strictly prohibited in the State of TN.  You can sell guns, but MUST replace any guns sold in fairly short order.   Adding at least three guns to a collection per year is strongly recommended.

The attacker also has the right to remain silent. The victim is just accommodating him :)

they have a right to a decent burial.  :)

    This is truth...... but you should be able to make it home from the dealership without it falling the fuck apart  :devil:

I was really just taking a jab at him, but I don't think we seriously want to start comparing reliability of Jeep vs Toyota. None are perfect, Jeep is at the top of the "non-perfect" list.

That's news to me. How do they do the test drive and inspection with no engine oil, transmission, or steering fluids? Let alone drive the vehicle onto a carrier, then off again at the destination? Legit curious where this info is coming from. I'd understand not being full of wiper or blinker fluid, ya know... the non-essentials. (Though I imagine they still lube the muffler bearings so the test drives are quiet.)

Just got home. Freaking awesome! Watching the Corsair fly made my naughty bits tingle. Coolest plane ever.

Coors? Perfectly good beer?? YUCK. :rofl:
