Only problem with that equation is that the Dems are continuing to push hard left. Both parties are doing their best to abandon any and all reasonable people in the center.

I have more faith in the senate than Trump on this subject.

I wear double ears whenever I’m shooting. I’ve already lost too much hearing from working around aircraft, and big Diesel engines.

I caught that too. So that grouping would be what, minute of Buffalo?

Give them time, they’ll get around to passing inspection of storage as part of the licensing procedure.

Yeah, it does look nice, but it’s not Wilson or Nighthawk nice.

I’m guessing if he does he’ll end up having to sleep in his smelly boat, eh?

My SAC holster is waiting for me at the house.

It is completely random in nature. I drive 48 states OTR on a team truck, so I don’t generally know where I’m going to be from one load to the next. Sometimes I have a little bit of advance notice of where I might have some downtime, and sometimes it is like today where I find out just a few hours before that I’m gonna be posted up for the night.

Yeah, I didn’t know until this afternoon. Of course I can also place myself at the TA in downtown Nashville as well if that’s better for anyone Can y’all tell I’m bored?

I know it’s short notice, but it appears that I’m gonna be posting up in Murfreesboro tonight. Anyone have nothing better to do and wanna catch a meal? I’m gonna be over at the pilot on 231 around 1700.

We really should just go ahead and eliminate DST. It’s pointless.

There’s never any fear of that happening.

No more than a belt loop or a shoestring.

The wonders of gun laws know no ends.

My understanding is that case was dropped.

Ok, TTAG wrote up an article covering this case and included some very vital information that was left out of the Prince Law article. https://www.thetruthaboutguns.com/2018/11/daniel-zimmerman/atf-suffers-rare-court-loss-in-ohio-short-barrel-rifle-prosecution/ Here are some key points: Toledo police responded to a domestic disturbance call in March at the home of Kelland and Christina Wright. Mr. Wright, a Marine veteran, allegedly threw a cell phone at his wife and was arrested. As a part of an arrest for a domestic violence complaint, police confiscated all firearms in the home, including an AR pistol equipped with the Maxim cheek rest. When the gun was subsequently examined by the ATF, they deemed it an unregistered short barrel rifle (SBR). That determination was based on the fact that, according to the ATF’s measurements, the Maxim cheek rest — which had been altered with the addition of a rubber “cane tip” on the end — resulted in a length of pull that’s greater than the 13.5-inch limit the ATF says is the maximum for any similar AR pistol accessory. Wright had apparently added the cane tip to keep the gun upright when stored in his safe. Prosecutors argued that was an illegal alteration to the gun. As a result, Wright was charged with possession of an unregistered short barrel rifle, a felony. There were a couple of problems with the caseagainst Wright, however. First, the ATF has never issued an official public opinion letter stating that AR pistols with such accessories— cheek rests, pistol braces, etc. — must have a length of pull of no more than 13.5 inches to avoid being considered an SBR. The ATF had communicated that fact to various manufacturers in private opinion letters concerning their specific products over the years (and some of those companies have chosen to make those letters public), but nothing has ever been communicated to the general gun-buying public by the agency. As a result, the defense argued that Wright had no reasonable way of knowing about the 13.5-inch length of pull limit. There’s a Supreme Court precedent in Staples v. United States that found a gun owner has to knowthat his firearm has characteristics that bring it under NFA regulation to be guilty of a crime. Regarding the ATF asking to seal documents: The Prince post also mentioned that the ATF asked for and was granted an order sealing a number of documents used in the case. As a part of their defense, Wright’s attorneys used a selection of those opinion letters the ATF had issued to manufacturers in connection with specific products under consideration. The ATF argued against releasing those for use by the defense in the trial, but lost that fight. The ATF then, reasonably enough, sought to have those letters sealed and not included in the public record of the trial because they contained potentially sensitive competitive information concerning the companies involved…not because they were trying to hide any internal ATF decision-making from the public. Those documents were never intended for public disclosure unless the companies themselves decided to release them. And for the final coup de grace, the defendant was represented by a public defender. So he didn’t owe a dime for his defense. I just want to repeat, the ATF had their asses handed to them by a PD.

I find folks in Colorado to generally be pretty pleasant.

The jury box is the box for defending liberty most often ignored yet also the one that can have the most immediate impact. Before judging guilt or innocence, one should judge the law first.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I carry tip up, and I used to carry my TGO Protech Magic. I say used to because one day I reached into my pocked and almost turned two of my fingers into four. It wasn’t the first time that knife had opened up in my pocket but it was the last time I carried it.

@Capbyrd That’s pretty much all I’ve got to say about it at this point.

I guess you’d have to be prior service to really get it.
