  1. I don't think I'd have one again if they gave it to me, but I have to admit even if you had trouble like I did and had to send it in to be replaced you'd still only be in it a few bucks. I had one that wouldn't fit any upper I own, YMMV.
  2. I'd like to go see it but the fiancé doesn't do scary so I'll probably be waiting until it comes out to rent. Y'all will have to let me know how it is
  3. Lol I love it
  4. The problem is that folks like yourself will read words but only interpret what you want to believe, not the intent of the author. No one can help you with that problem except for yourself. Did Zimmerman deserve to get his head smashed in for getting out of his truck? The statement you made suggests I think it was a punitive action by using the word "deserve". No, of course he doesn't "deserve" that at all. Just like someone who BASE jumps off a cliff doesn't deserve to smack into the side of the mountain and die in a terrible heap on impact, but that is a very likely outcome when you engage in such activities, and I'm not going to feel bad for them. Does someone "deserve" to get AIDS because they shared a needle while injecting themselves with heroin? No, but they don't deserve my sympathy. Does someone "deserve" to get breast cancer? No, but that person absolutely will get my sympathy. You see how that works? We all make choices in life and have to live with those choices. When you make bad choices you have to deal with the outcomes. Life is really that simple. Let's see if I can say this a little better. Some people on here (I don't know if it's you specifically, because I really don't care) have suggested that because Zimmerman exited his vehicle that he was "looking for trouble". As if him getting his head beat against concrete is in direct correlation with exiting his vehicle, it is not. Assuming it was somehow his fault Trayvon got on top of him simply because he exited his vehicle, that he brought it on himself, is wrong. That's placing zero responsibility in the altercation on the Trayvon side Now, to play to your examples, Trayvon jumped a guy and beat his head into concrete causing said guy to pull the trigger and defend his life. Yes, I understand cause and effect very well, just not some people's skewed view of it
  5. Some of you blow my mind. Please let me get this straight, because Zimmerman exited his vehicle, he deserved (and should have taken without using his firearm) to get his head bashed against concrete until his brains spilled out? It sure sounds like some here don't have a very strong conviction to preserve life, only about taking life. By that standard, why do you carry a firearm? Do you think it's always going to be someone of legal age, stronger, and bigger that will put you in fear for your life and they will always have a weapon of some sort? Please, help me understand. I carry a firearm knowing full well I may have to take someone's life some day. They may be "unarmed", they may be underage. But, if they put me in imminent fear of my life, I will be forced to take theirs. No, getting out of my vehicle does not mean I went "looking for trouble"
  6. You buncha paranoid nuts, I don't have EVERY magazine I own loaded.... Only because I forgot where I stashed a couple ;) Seriously though, I hope and pray nothing comes of it, I've gotta go to Walmart of all places tonight. If anyone else is in the Columbia/Spring Hill area, well I see no time better for us to have a gathering than the night that the verdict comes back :)
  7. Poor guy, the state wasn't going to let anyone or anything stand in the way of their railroad circus show were they? From the way the article reads, this instance is just one in a line of many things the state has been dirty about. Doesn't look like they're interested in any sort of justice a fair trial may bring. We knew that, it's just hard for me to get over the fact
  8. I don't see how post count correlates with making posts directly intended to stir the pot or provoke anger in this thread (i.e. being a troll) I get your point, but post count has zero to do with the TYPE of posts made, especially in this thread, which is what I was referring to. All it proves to me is he's been a member longer, it doesn't speak to the type of posts being made, although outside of this thread they may be helpful. Dave may be the best guy ever, but sometimes a spade has to be called a spade. You can disagree with me all you like, but I still expect you to recognize facts as such if we are going to engage in conversation. I don't deal well with agenda pushing and posts specifically intended to stir the pot...especially when masked as "opinion". That's like me starting a thread on this forum titled "Guns are evil". It's my opinion and unsupported by any type of logic or fact. I know exactly what type of attention and response I'll receive by making a post like that, and deservedly so. Opinions when theres no facts are just that, opinion. Opinions that ignore the facts in front of you, are silliness and based on nothing more than feelings. Your mileage may vary. Oh well, the facts of the case are in, we all well know that if he's not acquitted it's unjust to say the least. I'll keep my comments aimed directly toward the case, no matter how silly posts are Now I'll go cower in the corner and wait for someone to say I'm racist for using the word "spade". ;)
  9. Why can't you engage in decent discussion? Dave, this is the funniest, although directly hypocritical, post I've read today
  10. Not everyone thinks Zimmerman is an angel... Angel? Who gives one crap about being an angel? Innocent is the term I believe you're looking for, that's all this trial has proven. You know they make medicines you can take right? There has to be some flaw in your mental process, that's the only thing that makes sense. You're at best, a troll. At worse, a very mentally flawed individual
  11. I think he's Trayvon's real father. "If I had a son"..... I'd kick his tail if he acted like Dave
  12. Didn't you "ignore" me on another thread? Apparently, crapatalk doesn't recognize my ignore list, so I still have to see your delirious babble when I'm on my phone.
  13. I hope you're not serious with this shit still. I pray you aren't. Justice for Trayvon has already been served, all that remains to be seen is if George will get justice
  14. Actually there are a lot of free float tubes that use the original barrel nut. Gieselle, Noveske, Rainier, some of the Midwest Industry and a few others all use the orginal barrel nut. They clamp onto the original barrel nut after you remove the delta ring and spring assembly. It is actually a pretty ingenius design and if you look at my wife's 9mm AR next time we get together you can see the setup. I would get a clamp on gas block before one that is held in place by setscrews. The one you have pictured is the one to get.On this note, I have to recommend the Troy Ind. handguards. Simple to install (3 bolts to the barrel nut), rigid, and pretty dang spiffy. They are more pricey than some of the generic free floats, but still come in well under your Daniel Defense's, Noveske's, and so on. I'm very pleased with mine
  15. Yep. The prosecutors might as well have had rubber dicks glued to their foreheads all week. I doubt that they want to go thru that again. :) Sometimes I just read these topics for the lol's, this post did not disappoint
  16. a woman on the CNN jury last night, with a straight face said she believed after Zimmerman shot Martin he called one of his buddies to punch him in the face and bounce his head off the concrete. If she believes some crap like this it is a real possibility a actual juror believes it. This is no way a slam dunk for the defense. I honestly have no feel at all for how the trial is going. Sadly, you're absolutely right. But there again, I'm ok if just one believes it
  17. Kinda like what happened today?: "Dr. Valerie Rao, who was called by the prosecution to provide her assessment of Zimmerman's injuries based on photos, cast doubt on Zimmerman's claim his head was repeatedly bashed against the pavement as he fought with Martin in the Feb. 26, 2012 incident. "The injuries are so minor that the word slam implies great force," Rao said in response to questioning by prosecutor John Guy. "There was not great force used here." Rao said Zimmerman's injuries were not only "not life threatening" but were also "very insignificant." She said the injuries to the back of Zimmerman's head were consistent with hitting the ground but the injuries on his face were from consistent with one punch or strike." Read more: http://www.foxnews.com/us/2013/07/02/detective-returns-to-stand-in-zimmerman-trial/?test=latestnews#ixzz2Xvimhlds I read this and can't help but think...very easy to say for the person that didn't get their head beat on concrete. I'm sorry, but getting my head banged ONCE on the concrete without me being able to escape from someone on top of me and I'll be in reasonable fear of my life. Getting punched is one thing, getting your head bounced off concrete is another
  18. The situation came to Zimmerman? So someone made him stop his vehicle, get out and become involved in a foot pursuit of a person who was apparently not engaged in any illegal activity even after the police dispatcher advised him not to do so? Wow, the force must have been really strong in that Trayvon character for him to make Zimmerman do all that just so he might get a chance to beat Zimmerman's head against the ground. I'll repeat what I said, and highlight a couple of facts for you, since apparently you have either missed them, or are blissfully ignoring them. The EVIDENCE shows the situation came to Zimmerman. The EVIDENCE shows that Martin doubled back, to confront Zimmerman, which is what led to Martin's shooting, regardless of how you feel/what you think. The EVIDENCE shows that in fact Zimmerman was never "advised to not follow Martin", a dispatcher told him they didn't need him to do that, per the 911 call. Which basically means squat. He broke no laws by stopping his truck or keeping an eye on Martin, the only law broken that started the ball rolling was Trayvon jumping Zimmerman. So, please, tell me again about this "force" you speak of. Besides any of this, if Zimmerman broke no laws (which there has been no EVIDENCE to say he has), and presented no threat to make Martin fear for his life, he was justified to end Martin's life with his firearm to protect his own. That's what the EVIDENCE shows.
  19. My guess would be stress. You know, some people stop eating and lose, he may eat when he's stressed. I admit, I feel bad for the guy
  20. I love the fact that even though they're moving the operation they are fighting to the end. I'm ok waiting on them to start production back up of colored pmags, it's worth the wait
  21. Hmm looks like I need to be getting me an 80% lower if we're gonna have a party!
