I think that's as likely to happen as Hillary getting indited.

Rifle inscription used against officer in court
Trekbike replied to Chucktshoes's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
Would this lawyer logic also be used on items like, "don't tread on me" license plates? Maybe not necessarily in a SD shooting but it seems like they would try to make that into something as well. Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk -
That's why a suppressor is threaded. Break it down for transport, screw it back on when you get wherever Just giving you a hard time. :)

Back several years ago when AK's were more reasonable in price I passed on a WASR that was on sale at Dunham's for $399. It had the plywood furniture and the fit and finish made me say in my head, "I'm not paying $400 for this..." I guess I should have bought it along with a couple of crates of SKS's. Should have also bought several Pythons while I'm kicking my self in the butt.

Yea. You can't go having a 300blk SBR and not have a suppressor. :) Seriously, nice rifle. Love the coating color. Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk

It took you two to figure that out? :)

Hey it may be $250, but you get free shipping... :)

While they may have a secured closet available, if it was me, I'd still take my stuff in the stall with me like everyone else.

I've heard other folks mention that about their all wheel drive. What makes theirs better?

Congrats. Don't believe for a moment this will be your only AR. They don't call it the black rifle disease for nothing. :) Dont believe that crap that AR's can be run "dry". Lube the appropriate areas as shown in the manual. You can never have too much ammo or Pmags. Configure the rifle like you intend to use it otherwise you'll end up installing a bunch of stuff you don't need and just make the rifle heavier. Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk

That may be true in the short term but if you keep it long enough to have to replace the batteries then you're going to have a heart attack on the replacement bill.

Best places to purchase ammunition online.

After cutting up that section of the floor I think I might have found the trouble. The framers installed two of the cross joist braces on a vertical angle. The result was contact with just one thin edge which would contact the subfloor when you would walk across it. It will be the end of the week before I can fix and put things back together due my work schedule. So hopefully that will solve the problem. Thanks to everyone for their replies.

Well after spending way too much time tracking the noise I decided to cut into the floor. I'm taking up a 4x4 section. I'm off to get some plywood before the store closes. I'll update the thread with the outcome of my endeavors. Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk

My comment earlier about the seam wasn't clear. The seam I was referring to is centered on top of a joist as it should be. It is on the joist to the left of the 19" span. So I was wondering if the extra 3" span in that one section was enough to make the seam move. That seam though has the crap screwed out of it now so I can't see how it can still be moving. Yea, that's the problem. It seems to be coming from somewhere else and moving around. I'm going to give it another try to track it.

Yes, regular 2x joist. On the adhesive suggestion, since the creak seems to be moving I'm not sure where to try the adhesive. Right now the screws are about 4" apart, not including the original nails, so I'm not seeing how the stinking thing can still be making noise unless it's coming from the actual joist. :wall:

So here's the deal. I'm in process of installing 3/4" hardwood on the second story of my house. Everything has been going well until I get to the final room which is the master. We've had a few places around the house where the subfloor creaked when the carpet was down. Up until the master, the creaking has been solved after I went through and screwed down the subfloor in all the rooms with some 2" long subfloor screws. So here's the trouble in the master. Even after screwing down the floor I still have an area that creaks. I went back and added more screws to the area. Still creaks. I went and got 3" long screws and swapped them out instead of the 2" long screws. While the creaking has maybe gotten slightly better, it's still making noise. Honestly at this point I'm wondering if the noise is coming from the joists themselves and not the movement of the subfloor on top of the joists. One area of note, in the area of the creak, the framers messed up and had one joist laid off the normal 16" centers. It's the only one in the room like this. So the spacing in this area is 16",19",13", and then back to 16's. So I'm guessing this isn't helping but not sure if it's the root of the problem. Also there is a subfloor seam to the left of the "off spaced joist" but it doesn't necessarily creak right there. In listening at floor level while someone walks across the floor, it doesn't seem to be making noise in one specific spot so this has been half the battle in figuring out what is going on. Short of pulling up/cutting up the subfloor to better see what's going on, is there anything else to try? If it's flex in the joist system the 3/4" hardwood might help some I'm guessing. But once, I lay the hardwood down, it's down regardless of creaks or not. The house is about 25 years old and I've owned it the whole time. I'm hoping someone can offer some advice.

I woke up this morning and was thinking about this video I linked from years ago and just wanted to bump it back up for anyone that hasn't seen it before. Can anyone say, speed wobble?
