Well, I just ordered it.  Hard to resist at that price.    Real life product reviews in under an hour.  This place rocks.  Next step is to look for something to mount it with.

  What did you get to mount it?

This seems like a good black Friday deal from PSA, but I have no experience with scopes beyond an ACOG. I trust you guys more than other online reviews...do you think this scope is worth the cost and reliable? http://palmettostatearmory.com/index.php/4-5-18x40-bdc-reticle-target-turrets-sf-matte-blk.html   I plan to mount a scope onto a 16" AR so I have a long reach gun to compliment my SBR, but I want to keep it affordable (under $200).

That was from the August protests after the incident.  No idea why it's being re-posted as new info.  I would imagine that something similar could be happening, though.    Regardless, it's a perfect case example of what the 2nd Amendment does to protect individual rights.

  Sounds like the Israeli method in the West Bank.  They can always use a good dozer operator if you've got the time.  :P

  Cool.  Looking forward to hearing how it shoots and feels under some real conditions. 

  How do you place your hand when working the action?  Palm up, down?  Which fingers?    Just trying to get a feel for what is comfortable that close in.

  The Patriot Act...hope you're joking.  We need a lot less of that beacon of anti-freedom.  I'm surprised nobody in the government has tried to coral them into a "free speech zone."  Legally, they are in the wrong for being out on the highway, but the place, and the timing was to get them on the news for free media to promote their cause.  The way government tires to regulate dissent through things like the Patriot Act and local laws is shameful at times.    As long as they stay peaceful, I think it's in the public interest to let them go on.  Someday that might be us out there protesting gun control laws or something else we would get worked up over.

I like to have one rail slot visible between the backup sights and the rear of the red dot.  The exact placing differs between an Aimpoint and an EOTech, but the base of the sight comes out to being slightly behind the mag well.   It works well for me, but I'm not so fixated that I'll say somebody else is wrong for doing it another way if they can shoot well enough.

  The handle looks higher than I thought.  Let me know how much skin you scrape off your left index finger against the scope mounts while working the action.

Was it the BoA parking lot that turns onto E.Main St.?  Drivers never slow down after that turn where the parked cars blind them to whats around the corner.  Jaywalking or not, if it was me and that happened, I'd of been filming it as they drove away and given the link to the video to the police.   If your knee is feeling bad, I'd see a doctor to find out now if there is damage before you could aggravate any possible injury. 

  Same difference.  The 4th floor doesn't know what the 6th floor is doing, and you can get an opinion from either one at any time.

I don't assume for a second that ATF operates as one coherent entity.

  That using the brace to fire from the shoulder represents a change in the weapons classification.  With an AR pistol, that isn't true...yet.

When I went to a Preds game last December, I was wanded patted down before going into the arena.   This is from the Bridgestone Arena website: Guests are prohibited from bringing weapons into Bridgestone Arena and Bridgestone Arena Plazas.

  The real danger is in the ATF contradicting itself like it has.  An opinion is just that, and can be rescinded at a whim it seems.   I truly think the ATF will make the change on AR pistols with a SIG Brace sooner or later.  They wouldn't say adding one makes it an SBR, but they could extend the language about anybody firing it from the shoulder, and then everybody with a picture or video up of them doing just that is now in violation of federal law, having uploaded the evidence themselves.    I just simply don't trust something so flimsy as their opinions to give me legal protection in these instances.

I direct your attention to paragraph four of the attached letter. We all knew the possibility of something like this happening. I wanted to post this as I saw it for the usual suspects to start debate on. Right now it seems contained to short barrel shotguns, but I think it's only a matter of time before this opinion makes its way to SBR's. Too many people are getting around having to pay the $200 for Uncle Sugar to not notice. http://www.shootingsportsretailer.com/2014/11/19/could-this-mean-the-end-of-the-sig-brace/

Late to the party, but wanted to give a positive review for John Wells.  I went to his office, and the only hard part was the Brentwood traffic, everything else went smooth as silk, even an on the spot revision in the documents at my request (I didn't want my name in the trust).  John is a professional guy through and through, and I credit his work and council for my Form 1 being a first time go.  I've also never heard nor read a bad word about Chip Cain and his services.    Gun owners in Tennessee who want to go through the NFA trust process are well served by these two , and I'd recommend their personal service and experience in TN trust law over an internet company any day of the week.

Even I laughed at this one!  :up:

Networks pay their bills on Thursday nights in the fall.  With cold weather keeping people indoors and in front of the TV, they aren't giving up the advertising revenue by airing a speech that will force them to preempt at least one of their big ticket shows.

The tacticool craze kills common sense far too often.  Why do you need quad-rails on a gun like that?  One on top for a cheap red dot , maybe.  But a light, or a fore-grip would be ridiculous on a 1-shot gun.

  We bought these cheap power strips that you could plug any US, UK or Euro type into from the local economy.  Not quite the safest things, but they get the job done when you're mixing and matching the equipment you brought from home station with.  Since a lot of our stuff was dual voltage, the kid just had a brain fart and forgot to check.   Or, he just really didn't want to make coffee anymore.  He was one of the ones in our TOC that had that responsibility. 

  That's always fun to see.  Back in 2007, our BN TOC got in a brand new coffee maker to replace the aged silver bullet.  It was one of those models that has a warmer on top, so you can brew a second pot and still keep another one warm...the kind you see at Waffle House.  Long story short, that new coffee maker lasted all of 15 minutes out of the box before one of the Joe's plugged it straight into the 220 strip, not the converter box.   Our S-3 NCOIC was pissed.

I use the Kindle app and an app called Cool Reader on my Nexus 7 for reading these days.  I love how Cool Reader lets me change the background, font, font size, and color.   I still read real books as well, but having more outlets to read is never a bad thing, especially for kids who have no memory of a life without the tech we've seen emerge.

  Another thing to consider in the handle is getting a grip and pull on it with bare hands and gloved hands.  Is it smooth enough with either or?  Could be a big difference in depending on how big the knob is.
