  1. while I agree with you on the second half, I think this thread has been very restrained.
  2. It amazes me how every SCOTUS ruling on 1A is understood to automatically mean leave alone, but every 2a ruling is meet with clever ways around the new ruling. Just imagine if 1a was meet with the same restrictions as 2a.
  3. As much as these people consult with lawyers on this stuff surely they didn't make this big of a mistake. Then again the arrogance and ignorance of some in higher learning is astounding. If true, this sure doesn't help correct Hamilton's track record for making bad decisions.
  4. Got to look at one of those in a local shop here the other day. Very interesting gun. The DA is VERY heavy, but the single action was nice!
  5. I got the Allen one from Walmart and it works fine for me. I carry ammo, mags, small parts, a little bottle of CLP, 2 sets of hearing protection, couple pairs of shooting glasses, slide glide, cheap mag loaders I've collected, bore snakes and a gun rug. I always have spare room. Mainly I carry most of my cleaning stuff just becasue that's where I keep it at home.
  6. I would be willing to bet most of the Benefactors did so before the current restrictions were attached. It had nothing to do with the Trading section. It was more of a small community taking care of each other even though we all do not agree. If you miss that then you don't understand a local forum or community for that matter. Gunbroker is what you are looking for.
  7. You're not getting this one!
  8. ... and you thought it was a good idea to post this here?
  9. Can't argue there. You speak a lot of truth for someone who doesn't believe in it! (Just ribbing you OS)
  10. WOW! That seems steep for what they said they did.
  11. $20 + TICS but he only charged me once for the transfer and the Siaga. The way it should be done, but I know of others that charge it for each gun. Either way it is the cheapest in or around Nashville. Phil is a good guy to deal with.
  12. 1/3 AK, 1/3 FN, 1/3 AR! Nice guns! I personally I think AK's are the best "assault rifle" clone going! I've tried 4 AR's and just couldn't get into them like I wanted. I've had 3 Saiga x39's and a Saiga 12 all converted. My first one was a full on AK-103 clone done by Red Jacket. The last two i did my self. The Saiga 12 I converted then sold to a shady car dealer in Knoxville who took it over the top! Just brought home my fourth Wednesday and it will begin its transformation shortly. This one I'll keep! Here's my first before I got rid of the Tapco Galil HG. Here's the second one I did. the last one I did and some cool AK pics.
  13. I'll put the pics up in the AM as they didn't transfer as planned. Anyway, got my STG556 & Saiga 16" x39 on Wednesday. Phil at Bellshire helped me out and got me a great price on the Saiga, not to mention the only place in town that still transfers for $20. The MSAR I had to get from CDNN. They were the only place with a 20" barrel and Ratworx is OUT! The Saiga is going to be converted. This will be my 4th. I just really like building these. I have some plans for this one I've never done before so we'll see how it turns out. going to put a Tantal wire folder on it (if I can find it), and a TWS dogleg rail w/ peep sight. The MSAR is fantastic!!!! Most comfortable handling rifle I've ever held. Definitely needs to be broken in, as it is pretty tight. Trigger is still a bit heavy and gritty, but I'm told that smooths out. I couldn't believe how simple this gun is and how well made it seems. I'll never go back to an AR! Only drawback is the lack of iron sights. Not really anywhere to put them and the sight radius would be so short they wouldn't be much good anyway. I've got a Millet DMS-1 scope mounted on it. It's just as good as the stock optic at x1 (if not better) and magnifies up to x4. Will definitely pony up for better optics down the road, but this will do for now. Can't wait to get her out and play at the range!
  14. Not exactly true. Christianity is the only one to claim exclusivity of salvation through one person that being Jesus Christ outside of works. All others are works based: Islam (claims same God as Christianity, Judaism, ect.), Buddhism, Taoism, Confuscism, Judaism, Mormonism, Jehovah's Witness most atheist ............. The works of good/holy/right are all consistent in their measurement across the board. As a Christian if I am wrong, I would be allowed eternity in every other religion based on their own principles of works (Yes, even Islam. Read the Koran). However, if every other religion is wrong only the one who believes in Christ goes to heaven. The Atheist is 50/50. If he's right he's dead, if he's wrong he's in hell Even a ignorant person could see those odds. Something to think about. Back on topic. Their can be vitriol on both sides. Doesn't make it right or justified. You have to call them as they come.
  15. definitely had some holes or unresolved points. The thing he was making, "Chester", how someone of his "skill" set gets caught off guard at the beginning like he did. Nothing that ruined the movie though.
  16. Put one of these on my MSAR and it works pretty well. I've really liked the Barska stuff I have had. It works and doesn't cost a fortune. Works better than the stock MSAR sight that cost $300 plus it has a 1.5-4 magnification. I also like the Millet DMS-1 Tactical Riflescopes BARSKA Sport Optics
  17. I guess Darwinism isn't reserved to just the West!
  18. Am I not? Oh, great one.
  19. Now that's some good moderation right there!
  20. Looking through the Magnum Research 2010 catalog and in the back is a gun they are calling the Baby Eagle Fast Action. Appears to be a better clone of the Walther P99 than the S&W version. Priced at $619 at Davidson's. What's up with that. Here is the Davidson's link GalleryofGuns.com - Gun Genie
  21. Cost and to differentiate it from the AR line. My guess is they are trying to broaden their AR market to the hunters that have some issues with so-called "military" type arms. This makes some of the fence riders feel a little better.
  22. +1 The "drawback" to prosperity is that many people who would otherwise not be here make it. Our preditor used to be survival.
  23. These things are alway tough calls. Personally, I think they need to keep the lids tight till they get all they need out of the info available. The other side is that the sheep seem to only understand reality when these things become known. I wouldn't not be surprised if there are more of these "incidents" we have yet to hear of. Our military is good at what they do.
  24. Your question is fine if you're looking to buy. The problem comes when folks ask these question looking to sell. BTW - Gunbroker will give you a pretty good idea of the market on these.
  25. Yeah, not too fond of the roll mark.
