The ones I'm looking at are $50, same as similar Carhartts. I work in a factory, and can be hard on my work clothes. I don't want or need the tactical aspect of them just the durability. Magpul doesn't make junk or put their name on it, but I honestly don't care what brand tag is on it. Im just trying to find some looser fitting, cooler ( not as hot as jeans) pants for work that won't wear through so fast. Ive had the cheaper "designer line" of Carhartts and some Levi 569 that have worn through. I won't wear these outside of work, my work clothes and normal clothes are two different things. I dont mind paying more if they last a long time. If the Magpul pants are cut to fit tight like above, then they are out. Also if anyone has a site they have ordered Dickies pants from and they actually delivered them, I'm all ears. Nowhere around here has the ones I want.

Anybody have any of these yet? I'm curious about them. Specifically the utility pants. About the same price as some similar Carhartts. I need some for work and can't find Dickies in a relaxed or loose fit ANYWHERE. Ordered some direct from Dickies about 2 months ago, nothing. I'm real picky about how they fit, not too tight. Anyone have any that care to explain how they fit? Thanks

Oh man, that's gold right there.

Supposed to be the best of every weapon system to date all in one. Trigger is said to be exceptional. 2.5-3 lb match trigger is how it was designed, with the ability to increase the weight with springs if necessary. It hasn't been released yet and has been delayed several times but I think it will be the best bullpup bar none when it does come out. Standard chassis takes .308 or 5.56. Conversion kit for blackout on launch, with more on the way. Standard 16" version is 26" OAL (legal). Compact version with 10.5" bbl is same length as a P90. https://deserttech.com/html/product_overview.php?product_id=4&load=product_overview

The rush for filing....

I saw that on IG. Said it was the most they had ever done in one day and it totaled over $2 million just in tax stamps. -
TN Firearms Freedom Act

If I'm not mistaken, all TN FFLs received the same letter. -
I'm personally really looking forward to the Desert Tech MDR

Organic farming is simply regular farming the way it used to be done. But as a civilization we have evolved. We don't have to resort to using manure as fertilizer. Although it is highly beneficial to do so when you also have animals and have the manure right there in your field all it takes is a little time to move it to where your crops are. Only a dumbass hippie or hipster would put human feces on their crops. We used to not use any type of fertilizer at all. Crops grew just fine. Then someone figured out the manure from the animals made the crops grow better so every one started doing that. Then we figured out what the chemicals and nutrients were that were actually helping and now you can just go buy a bag of fertilizer. Genetically modified plants are simply a way to increase the output for a certain land footprint. Probably not the best and certainly not all natural but it's not the devil either. Herbicides/pesticides are simply to keep bugs and parasites from destroying the harvest. As Raoul said, there is no need to be 100% organic nor go all out commercial and use every chemical available. We have evolved and should be smart enough to strike a balance. If it gives you a decided advantage without killing you, why not. Nothing wrong with hybrid plants, store bought fertilizer, and mild herbicides and pesticides.

TN Firearms Freedom Act

Same thing for the legal issues. -
TN Firearms Freedom Act
nightrunner replied to wrenchhead97's topic in National Firearms Act (NFA) Regulated
My opinion, when this was passed, it was nothing more than a feel good gesture, knowing it had no legs to stand on and no one would test it. TN isn't the only state that has this, I believe Montana? maybe Wisconsin? has it also. Still no test case in any state. -
TN Firearms Freedom Act
nightrunner replied to wrenchhead97's topic in National Firearms Act (NFA) Regulated
And I know this is assumed, but also a felony charge that sticks with you when you do get out and effectively ruins the rest of your life. If someone doesn't really value their freedom all that much and has a few hundred thousand dollars to throw at court costs/legal fees to set a precedent, that'd be great. -
Meteorite Damascus Knife in my Collection

Simply amazing -
I knew this would come along at some point...

Probably a standard spring loaded glass breaker. Some, like most on the handle of pocket knives and the like are solid and use brute force. ( Note: if using a solid one, it's easier to press in the corner where the logo has been etched in the glass, it's weaker there) Others, similar to a machinist center punch are pointed and spring loaded, set the point on the object and the press and it compresses the spring then "fires" the point. Simply easier to use, the machinist version is for accuracy.

Suppressor Build Question
nightrunner replied to Ramjo's topic in National Firearms Act (NFA) Regulated
Look at the production cans. I don't know what kind of baffle design is used but the military issue Surfire SOCOM 556 suppressor is around 6" and 1.5 diameter. They have a version even shorter than that. I think 6-7" on a 556 should be sufficient with a 1.5" can. -
TGO T-SHIRTS NOW AVAILABLE! TIME LIMITED OFFER!
nightrunner replied to TGO David's topic in General Chat
Wow, you really did get the last of them. I won't be able to get anymore unless we get Tall sizes. These shrunk up too short for me after two washings. -
My advice, don't, every few months the price goes up. If there is any other alternative, take it. I am switching to ATT very soon.
-
I'm curious as I have been lookin at these but it seems like everyone that has one is either a trainer or professional reviewer. Nice to see one in unbiased hands. Just make me want one even more.
-
I don't think anyone can complain about that! Nice shooting!
-
Don't get me wrong, it would cycle everything else, even some foreign bulk stuff is never heard of before and Remington Golden Bullet, which is bad. Stingers just stuck in the chamber. Somewhat common problem, not a big deal as stingers aren't that great for anything anyways.
-
Only thing I have had that wasn't reliable was a Marlin Model 60, it would not shoot Stingers no matter what. Not really relevant though.

I have one that is an AC Delco I got from O'reileys. Haven't had any problems with it. My dad had a big one, looked like a racing jack, might have been, idk. One stroke and it went from the floor to whatever you were lifting. Bought it at a flea market for what seemed like cheap.
