  1. One 45-70 is plenty IMHO. After acquiring the modern Marlin holy trinity (Dark Series, SBL, Trapper), they are still BNIB and I only really care about my case hardened Henry and occasionally the BFR. Circling back to the OP's original thoughts, there is definitely a fat dopamine hit buying all the stuff that tapers off real quick for most. Also the idea of the firearm and/or firearm project has a bit of mileage but once the acquisition/project is done, the conclusion is kind of empty. Coming from a guy that has 42069 unfinished firearm projects and no real interest in completing any of them, I have more thoughts than I do answers.
  2. Seems like one of those journey versus destination conundrums. Outcomes are often not as you perceive them in your mind. Front-ended expectations generally lead to "so that's it?". Feelings are fickle like that.
  3. As the title says, I'm looking for a Glock 17L and 17C. Prefer Gen3 or older and as factory as possible. Wanted to see what was out there before buying new.
  4. Unfortunately the status quo around here is all talk, no follow through. I've offered up land and targets but that's where it naturally ends.
  5. Now is a terrible time to just get into any new consumer product business. All of the small ammo outfits have been aggressively slashing prices and running sales longer the past few months. Unless you have signed contracts to produce and get paid consistently, relying on retail consumption is a huge risk. There is a reason that places like Parabellum do what they do: it's called survival.
  6. The quality of Glocks later than Gen3 has noticeably dropped off. Gen2s are great for those that absolutely hate the finger grooves, otherwise Gen3 is peak Glock.
  7. Ohio Ordnance still makes new ma deuces. Just sayin'
  8. They make them carry sized these days
  9. You are way overthinking this. Assuming your home is wired correctly (i.e. correct gauge for specific load rating on said circuit), the breaker will trip when overloaded. Plain and simple.
  10. Dictator Sisolak was what happened. He was basically a skin suit for Gavin Newsom as there was a lot of California emulation at the time. This was when "ghost" guns were a hot topic for the commies so they did everything in their power to snuff them out. Much of the backroom legislature they jammed through eventually got thrown out by the courts but that takes time. There was a time in 2021-2022 that if you were in possession of an incomplete 80% lower, it was a felony in Nevada. I was already on the way out so I took my chunks of alloy and polymer to freer parts of the country. Supposedly Lombardo has been an improvement in many ways but the California culture shift continues as more of them relocate to the Silver State.
  11. If you really want to get pedantic, you could run each printer through its paces using a Kill A Watt to measure real world output of the devices to put your mind at ease. Kill A Watt
  12. It's more likely a 20A circuit. 15A is only supposed to be for lighting. If you only print on one printer at a time, you should be fine. 80% rules says 20 amps x 120V x .8 = 1920w is safe peak.
  13. This is partially why I left NV (home state of P80). On top of all that, the State of Nevada kept fabricating new law behind closed doors to purposely cripple P80 and criminalize their resident customers. While the pro 2A community have been winning some battles along the way, the war against the community will never stop.
  14. Kinda figured, based on the wording. This is a prime case of "some things are better left unsaid".
  15. Instead of attempting to resurrect a zombie thread, I figured I'd start a new one to ask from the wisdom from past and present SCAR owners. I picked up a lightly used, 100% factory SCAR 17S FDE for a reasonable price that is in transit. Geissele Super SCAR trigger seems like a good start. Possibly a better handguard. Any suggestions/tips/tricks on upgrades/tweaks/etc?
  16. The market is flipping. New prices are dropping but used seems to be holding strong, if not going up in some cases. I routinely see people buying used or near new lever actions at auction for more than retail. Appears there are plenty of doom spenders still out there throwing money around like its 2020. At the pace things are going, there will be some really good deals popping up, new and used, come this holiday season.
  17. "Mass shooting at ghost gun dealer shakes minority neighborhood. Film at 11."
