I'll say it. A win for States Rights, where it belonged in the first place.

Lol indeed, my glock goes years without a good cleaning, my 10/22 went at least 20 years without any major cleaning, but when I did I replaced a bunch of parts, thought it was just because, since I had already had it apart and it was a good time to do the replacements, the OEM parts are still in my possession though, just in case.

If only they understood that the 2A has nothing to do with punching holes in paper, or hunting. No, the 2A is there to keep our government in check, which is the reason they are trying to weaken it at ever turn.

Permits do not equal oil, it is an expensive endeavor to drill and there is no guaranty they will hit oil. Oil companies get permits to keep operations going, so when a well dries up, they get another one going, they can't afford to use all their permits at once. But the thing is, the market thinks about future supply, so all the cancelling of pipelines, and cancelling Alaskan and gulf permits make the market react. There has to be a reason we have to tap into the strategic reserves, to increase supply, if supply is not a problem. Oh, and not all crude is the same, so it is possible some of the stuff pumped here may not be what we can use.

I only get a couple, sometimes three, but they have been here for a few weeks.

What, we doing politics again? Ok then, FJB, enough said.

Not according to the Israelis I served with, they informed me that many of the administration are not only trained but armed to deal with situations like this. And they must be doing something right, specially in light of the fact that they are surrounded by folks that would like nothing more than to kill a bunch of them. Though it may not be the actual teachers in front of the class, there are armed personnel on premises. https://www.westernjournal.com/israel-2-school-attacks-44-years-heres-make-sure-kids-safe/

Kid in drag doesn't appear to be the shooter, but the parallels to Sandy Hook are striking, seems like the grandmother, like Lanza's mother, had worked for the school according to some articles. I don't think him ending up there was a coincidence, more than likely he meant to end up there. He was engaged at the entrance, by one, then two additional LEOs, but he outgunned the first, at the door, and went in. How we can afford to send a foreign country billions yet not spend anything to fortify our schools is mind numbing. We need to be like Israel and train and arm our teachers to be the final line of defense against these nut jobs. School Drop-Out Gave Warning on Facebook Minutes Before Uvalde Massacre (yahoo.com)

And? What is wrong with being able to manufacture your own weapon? The concern is getting weapons out of the hands of gang bangers and others unauthorized to have them, and keeping criminals behind bars once they are caught breaking laws. Those of us that follow the law and don't commit felonies should be allowed to not only own and make their own weapons, but carry them as well.

Give/sell it to someone that can use the components, making sure to let them know they are unknown reloads.

Yea, all she needed was a jump, took all of 2 hours.

Pre-bs was around $40, at Midsouth, my last purchase was $71.15 for Federal Large and Small Rifle.

Post some links or pictures to some packs online that might suit your needs, some of us may be have something on-hand that may work and can possibly work out a deal. I have packs that range in size, but being prior army my idea of a 3-day pack may not fit a hunters/hikers idea of a 3-day pack.

Very interesting, you can't copy the entire link, but if you copy the end, and manually enter the "https://www." it parses the link into the video, yet the next video can be pasted right in.

It is an old post, but it showed up in my Unread Content as well, thought it was a new post too.

Hey, I bet someone got a decent return for it at one of the gun buy-backs.

We just got through inspecting and putting Loctite on the sights of the Regiment's Sigs, lost a few sights due to them coming loose.

I suppose it is not a question of can it be reloaded but will it be practical to do so, right now I would say no, specially with the expense of the brass and the proprietary powder. But when they fully field the caliber I guess things may get a bit cheaper, and more experimentation can occur in the field.

Yea but, is it reloadeable? If not then that sucks for us wanting to stay with military calibers. But, I would guess that there will be plenty 5.56 surplus.

Can only answer the breakdown question with any certainty, they do exist, I have one. As to the brace, I don't see any reason why not, at least not until the feds finalize their BS, which will go to court, but still.

What's with that stock? Does it fit the shoulder better?

Now that knife I like, great looking and has character, the sheath does match it quite nicely too. great job.

Been carrying my G23 since mid 90's, every now and then I carry the XDS. I have other guns, but those two get EDC duty.

Yes, have two and their belt hanger. Not bad, I like the ratchet feature, makes adjusting the belt very easy when you add or remove your EDC. I ordered a black and brown belt that can be used with dress and casual clothes, not the tactical one. I have this buckle on a black belt, and different buckle for the brown one. I left it a bit long so the end of the belt would still reach the belt loop when I'm carrying. I rotate a Glock 23 and an XDS in an IWB holster, belt does fine with them both.

Yea, no, I understand all that, still, not gonna sugarcoat it, But I too will just deal with whatever you decide to go with.
