  1. They've been showing and discussing that design for years. It was orginally developed for military apllications
  2. I don't think its illegal but you are supposed to have a document from the bank I think. I got one when I sold my truck. May have something to do with cali state law thojgh. Its not illegal, but it does require filing a form, and I was told to carry the form by the bank. http://www.irs.gov/Businesses/Small-Businesses-&-Self-Employed/FAQs-Regarding-Reporting-Cash-Payments-of-Over-$10,000-(Form-8300)
  3. They need to fire every police officer that responded and didn't put a stop to this mornoic behavior. There are good cops out there, but everyday I here more and more stories of power abuse and bad cops. Instead of paid leave investgations, they need to take a zero tolerance policy and start firing officers on the spot.
  4. Both my nephew and my niece are being home schooled by my middle sister, their aunt. Their mom and their aunt are both teachers, my oldest sister still teaches, my middle one quit to home school the kids and spend time with her newborn. Now if the teachers in the school system think what They Are required to teach is bad enough that they home school their own kids, its gotten pretty bad. And yes they do teach things they don't agree with, because they have to pay bills like everyone else. I don't think a home schooled kid is really missing anything other than having evolution theory, socialism, and a bunch of other goverment mandated, brain washing crap fed to them every day. Granted they don't get the social situations, but if they attend church like my family does, or make regular trips to the park, friends houses, etc, they don't seem to miss out on much.
  5. No they won't. The main reason I choose wools is because it will insulate when soaking wet, and its fire resistant. While fleece/polyester insulate when wet, it melts/burns very fast and can be dangerous around fire.
  6. Will a standard m4/AR hand guard fit it? Or does it have to have a DB specific handguard
  7. Thats a sexy AR. I really like the case also
  8. I agree. If your willing to stiff someone, why not just out them publicly. At least then their character will be known.
  9. Oak RIdge is out of everything constantly. Clinton normally has ammo 4 out of 5 times. Its just kind of a gamble. South Clinton has ammo almost all the time, if your willing to pay the price for it.
  10. I actually saw a book on amazon the other day that was titled how to convert a Mini to full auto. Didn't know it was legal to sell something like that, but I figured if they were selling, that a select fire model had been made at some point
  11. Looks good. I bet thats gonna be fun to move to the range now lol. Really good job
  12.   I never realized until I saw these pics that the mini was still such a popular patrol rifle for some. Makes me want to hang on to mine even more now.
  13. I have't seen 9mm in awhile. Walmarts have been out of everything but shotgun and 30-06 lately. I have started seeing 7.72 and 5.56 on the shelfs more and more though
  14.   A lot of people, myself included, got a message saying it would be up to a month before I see my refund due to new laws and regs trying to stop identity theft.
  15.   Why?? I've carried one in the gun rack on my old truck for years, and have never had an issue. Its pretty sad when people are scared to legally carry a gun to the range. Hes not talking about slinging it and walking into walmart, hes talking about carrying a legal long gun, int he floor board of his own vehicle on a legal range trip...
  16. If you have an HCP, you can have a loaded long arm, no round in the chamber unless your life is in danger. If you don't have an HCP, ammo and long arm must be seperate   From my understanding, it doesn't matter where the long gun is. Just like an HCP holder can carry a loaded shotgun in a truck rack
  17. I guess I'm not seeing the ammo shortages others are out here? I can almost gurantee to find 7.62, 5.56 or .45 acp everytime I got out if I hit a few stores. A certain local walmart gets orders in every other day or so, a lot of bulk pack stuff, and South Clinton Pawn has had 7.62 on the shelf for 3 weeks, though its high priced. Frontier firearms had a case of Tul 7.62 and a case of norinco with a 5 box limit the other day. Maybe the ammo shortage is just worse in other parts of the state   What I mainly noticed was that an AR 15 or a bulk pack of ammo used to sit on Armslist for 2 hours tops. Now they are not being bought quickly, and are being reposted several times with price drops. PEople are slowing down and becoming pickier about prices for ammo, and not over paying for bottom dollar AR's. At least thats my view
  18.   I have had this thought for awhile. I really want to pick up an AR to play with, and I have the feeling that they will be flooding the market very cheap, very soon. Lots of people without disposable income bought a lot of high priced toys on credit
  19. So slowly, over the last 2-3 weeks I have started to notice prices slowly dropping, and supply slowly catching up. I keep a watch on armslist, and I have noticed that AR's are starting to sit there for a few days, and not selling at double the MSRP like they were. People are still buying, but they are getting pickier and watching their price vs value more. I have also noticed that I can get ammo almost every time I go out now, if I'm willing to do a little driving, and searching and calling. Its not the constant stream of no's it was. I know ammo is still scarce and will be for a couple of months to come, and prices are still high, but I think the worst of it may be over, if nothing crazy happens.
  20. This is the message I'm getting   "The PayPal site is currently experiencing technical difficulties with our credit card processor. We are working to solve this problem as quickly as possible. If you would like to Send Money, please fund your payment with your PayPal balance, PayPal Credit or bank account. If you would like to use your credit card, please return to the PayPal website later to complete your transaction. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause."   And its a pvt seller, so I doubt its his end
  21. I'd dont even know how to figure this, or even if I want to trade lol. It was just a thought, and Id always wondered how to price AR's   Here is how I stand on the Ruger   I paid:   Rifle, 2 20 rd mags and 5 rd mag - $650 with 40 rds through it. I have put an additonal 40 through it. Rifle is less than 2 months old Ammo - 300+ assorted rounds. All bought post panic Sparta stock- $250 Tru Glo - $50   That is my actual paid price. So I have $950 minus ammo. So what kind of AR's would make sense if I was looking at trades? The Ruger mags are $35 each, and the rifle was $750 two months ago.     Disclaimer:   I'm not saying I would trade for an AR, just trying to get a ballpark on what to tell this guy since he keeps asking
  22. From what Ive found online the bush woulda been bottom of my list and the M&P at the top. Just because Ive found thread after thread about carbon-15 issues. The ATI is by far the sexiest looking, but looks dont mean anything if it doesn't run. My only ruger complaint is I've had a couple light strikes on steel cased wolf ammo, I'm gonna order up a stouter hammer spring and see what that does
  23. Basically a guy is trying to trade me out of my Ruger Mini 30 I just finished building up. He has those to offer, and I'm weighing my options
  24. Is anyone else having paypal issues? I keep trying to send a payment for some gun parts to another TGOer and it says their credit card processor is off line. Anyone else tried to use it today and had issues? Its been ongoing for a couple hours now
  25. The guy is nothing but a liberal begging for attention. Otherwise he could have got rid of it in pvt and no one would have ever known.  Btw if your gonna try to make what your doing a religious/morals thing, you might want to read the WHOLE bible.   He quotes the bible here,   Isaiah 2:4   "They will beat their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning hooks. Nation will not take up sword against nation, nor will they train for war anymore."       But maybe he missed these   Psalm 144:1-2 Blessed be the LORD, my rock, Who trains my hands for war, And my fingers for battle; My lovingkindness and my fortress, My stronghold and my deliverer; My shield and He in whom I take refuge; Who subdues my people under me.   Joel 3:10 "Beat your plowshares into swords, and your pruninghooks into spears: let the weak say, I am strong."   Ecclesiastes 3:8 A time to love, and a time to hate; A time for war, and a time for peace.
