I bet they thought they could split the vote closer to 30/30/30 with a margin of 10 and it would give the illusion that the too dangerous vote was much higher. Guess that backfired on them.

I've built 3 ISPs and a CLEC around Ubuntu and Debian. I always go with an LTS version but there are some that run well past their EOL because they just work and I'm pretty fond of "If it ain't broke, don't fix it." I have some servers that have gone years without reboots.

Gun bans coming to some social security recipients
battleop replied to Sam1's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
Sounds like if you meet the condition that you have been found that you are mentally incapable of handling your own affairs then you probably can't get past question 11F on form 4473 anyways. If they had a clear way to appeal this with an endless run around and we knew it stopped their it would be a good idea. However we can't trust them to use this as a springboard to find other back doors to stealing guns. -
"Load it by weight and NEVER start out at the max recipe" For what I'm loading I usually end up a little shy between the low and high point. "are you loading it as 38 or 357??" I usually load .38 data in .357 brass so it does not create a ring in the cylinder that can be a pain in the ass to clean.

I found a bag of .38 125g soft point bullets in my father-in-law's shop. He wasn't a reloader but it's in stuff that came from his best friend when he passed away 15 years ago so even when my father-in-law was alive he would not have known what they were. I don't know who makes them so I'm making some guesses at finding load data for these. Visually they look exactly like this bullet. http://www.midwayusa.com/product/1601195913/remington-bullets-38-caliber-357-diameter-125-grain-jacketed-soft-point Should I use copper data or lead data for these? Should I use starting data out of the Hornady Manual for a 125g bullet since that's my closest weight match? I'm not looking to get anywhere near max pressure, I'm looking for a decent target/plinking load for one of my Pythons.

Clearly the gun buster sign did its job. It's magical powers kept the bad guy from bringing a gun into a gun free zone. Now if we can just create bullet free zones we will be even safer.

There is an FBI office downtown.

Who would leave 478 pcs of Federal 10mm laying on the ground?
battleop replied to a topic in Ammunition and Reloading
There is no "owner" of the CRC (Chattanooga Rifle Club) so no one can really lay claim to the brass other than the shooter. The club etiquette on brass is that you clean up after your self. Sweep nonreloadable .22/steel/aluminum off the pad and pick up reloadable brass. If you reload take it with you if you do not leave it on the bench or counter for someone who does. -
I've got a 9mm and 40. if I had to sell guns they would be some of the very last to go.

Well, with gay marriage legal in all states...
battleop replied to Steelharp's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
That's not that great of an idea. If you go on that logic the gun laws in the Communist stats count as ANYWHERE and we certainly don't want those laws EVERYWHERE. -
If it's a .22LR unload it, keep the ammo and turn the gun into police? :)
-
One that wants to make money on said policies... If I were an insurance agent I would absolutely open up shop to sell these policies if no one else was doing it.
-
It seems to me you would be a complete moron to not have liability insurance but not just for guns. I have an umbrella policy that would already cover this so it's a non issue for me. The problem I have with this type of mandated insurance is that it creates a list of gun owners (and possibly guns) that is held by a private party. The problem is that one day some of these companies will want to be good little corporate citizens and hand over these lists in turn for special favors and or treatment.

States Where College Campus Carry Legal
battleop replied to 300winmag's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
My information is about 3 years old so take it at that.... I sent an email to the University of Alabama asking about carrying on campus. I was more interested in carrying and leaving it in the car than carrying in the stadium. I got an email from the PIO for the UAPD asking me to call him but it was OK to carry in most areas. He said that the rules that govern students were different than the rules that govern visitors. He said students were not allowed to carry per University rules but they really didn't have that much jurisdiction over visitors in this matter if they had a valid carry permit. -
If you are reloading just to save money on 9mm it's probably not worth it unless you are shooting high volumes. To me it's more about tuning ammo to my guns and relaxing that it is economics. Edit - Stupid IOS Auto Correct.

There isn't much of anything in that area.

I was there about a month or so ago and various 1 LB powders were $24-29 each. T
-
I've never really cared about consolidating calibers. I guess if I consolidated anything it was calibers that I carry. I change it up from time to time but the last 6 months I've been carrying 9m or .45 depending on what I'm wearing. .

As someone said before, The Barret Outlet store (outpost armory) at exit 89 on i24.

M855/SS109 5.56 Ban!!! AKA Green Tip
battleop replied to mcordell's topic in Ammunition and Reloading
I wonder how many people feel stupid for buying panic priced ammo? -
The only thing Wal-mart is going to cave to is sales figures.
-
I've not seen this problem yet in my G17, G34, or G30.(all Gen4) and none of these have bulged the brass but it was the first trip through a glock that I know of. I have a G22 (Gen3) that I've shot reloads in but I don't recall if it created a bulge or not since I don't shoot the G22 that often.

If you hate everyone on an equal basis it's hard to be racist. :)
