I'll try to make this one. Great idea! -
300 Blackout as a "End of Times" caliber
bigwakes replied to Dolomite_supafly's topic in Survival and Preparedness
I just got my 300 AAC 9" uppper and have been very impressed both suppressed and unsuppressed. I got the YHM Phantom 7.62 can that works on my 5.56 rifles and the Blackout. I have never been a reloader, but I'm considering getting into reloading so I can shoot this round more without breaking the bank. The Blackout is suddenly becoming my most expensive hobby. I picked the Blackout mostly for the ability to send a large round out of a standard AR quietly. I have not done much bench rest shooting, but looking forward to checking the accuracy in the next couple of weeks. -
I was a little sceptical about fixing something that isn't broken, but I like the Gen 4.

I saw a polymer AR15 complete lower for $110 at the Nashville Gun Show this weekend. I sat down to fill out the paperwork while the guy was dealing with another customer. I filled out my paperwork and set it on the table along with my drivers license. I picked up the dealers business card and to my surprise I saw Kikrnu Firearms as the dealer name. I waited till the guy was done with his other customer and asked if his name was Leonard. He confirmed he was Leonard, so I took my application and my license and ripped it up as I was walking away. Just wanted to let people know he is at the show.

Latest Class III: Guesses on Wait Time
bigwakes replied to Semiauto's topic in National Firearms Act (NFA) Regulated
Looks like something is improving. I went pending May 29th and got one of my forms returned with an error. I spoke to my agent today Bill T. He said it should be back to my dealer within two weeks. That would be awesome, but I'm not getting my hopes up. I'm wondering if the new interns have sped up the error detection, but not the process. We'll see if Bill is gonna let me down or not. I had two go pending on the same day, so will hopefully see the other one in the same time frame. -
Question about selling an automatic knife on this forum

The inertia wording has me scared. My favorite Benchmade flips out with one hand when I hold down the blade lock. Is that legal? -
Marine veteran held in psych ward for Facebook posts
bigwakes replied to daddyo's topic in General Chat
While I agree he said some dumb things, I would love to see a little consistency. People have said much worse in much more public places without a thing being said or done. You start to wonder what the motives are for arresting some but not others. From http://www.glennbeck.com/2012/04/09/new-black-panthers-bloodshed-and-revolution-long-overdue/ Williams: I just want to say to all the listeners on this phone call, that if you are having any doubt about getting suited, booted, and armed up for this race war that we’re in that has never ended, let me tell you somethin…the thing that’s about to happen these honkies, these crackers, these pigs, these people, these motherf*er…it has been long overdue.†Kweli: “Ya, what she said was right– we got to suit up and boot up…and get prepared for the war that we’re in…this stuff got to boil over, and all your great’s talked about that happened to be bloodshed involved with revolution- true revolution means some bloodshed, so there‘s blood being spilled because there’s a new life that is beyond this bloodshed.  There is a new reality that is built upon your original African principles and spiritualities and values and norms that is beyond this bloodshed.  But we gotta go do it. “And as the Scripture said, you gotta to cross it.  We gon’ have to cross the Red Sea….I know y’all thought it was talking about some sea in some Middle Eastern part of the world- hell no.  We’re talking about some blood.  You’re gonna have to cross some blood, and go through someblood and some battles. “And there are those who wish they could stand in this hour, to see the destruction of the devil‘s world and the devil’s society- and I‘m ain’t talking about no dude underneath the ground with a pitchfork and pantyhose.  I’m talking about that blonde haired, blue-eyed, sometimes brown-eyed, Caucasian walkin around with a mindset, a demonistic mindset, and a nature to do evil and brutality.†Williams: “I say to everyone that is on this call right now, I‘m comin’ out of the gate…my prize right now this evening is going to be the bounty, the arrest– dead or alive– for George Zimmerman.  You feel me?  To every brother, to every female, I am for violence if non-violence means we continue postponing a solution to the American black man’s problem just to avoid violence.  You feel me?  It’s time to wake up, I don’t know how else…It’s in me to fight.  It’s in me to raise up soldiers.  It’s in me that every time my feet touch the ground the state of Florida- these crackers- they scared. “I’m kinda pissed off right now that the state of Florida ain’t on fire.  This could not have happened in L.A. because them brothers up there are not scared to riot.  This could not have happened in St. Petersburg Florida, where the black man over there are ain’t scared to kill a cracker.†Kweli: “This is real.  We’re attacked anywhere in the world and we would defend ourselves by any means necessary…You starve capitalism, since this racism that‘s being perpetuated and this brutality that’s being perpetuated, and this murder that’s being perpetuated, is built on the table legs of capitalism, you’ve got to starve capitalism. “An act of war has been declared on us and we have no choice but to fight…[but] we have to be trained how to fight.  See the whole purpose of the maneuver that’s happening in Sanford is to train in self-defense, because many of us think we’re prepared for a battle- just like many of us think we’re prepared for a fight- but if you are not training, if you are not stocking up water, if you are not stocking up food, if you are not stocking up weapons and artillery and survival books, and gas masks, and flashlights, and cantines, and ready-to-eat meals…if you are not stocking that up I don’t know how serious we are right now. “They’re using Trayvon Martin. This is not about Trayvon Martin.  This is not about justice.  This is about the destruction of the western way of life and capitalism,†Glenn said upon hearing the audio. -
Do seal it from water and don't let it get wet. Cheaper then Dirt had a bury tube that looked like a green PVC pipe with a screw on lid.

You can find used Gen 3s in the $1800-2k range, but it's still a lot of dough. Gen 3 tubes go on eBay for $5-800 and then you can have someone build a complete PVS 14 or PVS 7 with that tube.

The main issues are a dark theater, smoke grenades, utter confusion, and a blaring movie in the background. I don't think any of us could have reacted armed or not. I would like to think I could have gotten to him, but with everything going on I doubt it. It's a very different story in a church with lights on and pretty quiet until the BG starts yelling or shooting.

I'm a General operator. I was commo in the military so no brainer for me. There was some overlap, but pretty easy to study for. My wife is very smart but did not even know what a resistor was before studying. She studied an iPhone app for about 3 weeks and got 35 out of 35 on both her Tech and General test on the same day. The old guys in the lobby thought she must have been a real tech genius and started asking her questions about radios and antennas. All she could do is shrug and ask "what's that?"

Shooting at Denver theater during new Batman movie.
bigwakes replied to K191145's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
There will always be a candidate that shares more of my views than the other. That's the guy who will always get my vote with the exception of proven fraud or more deception than the other guy. -
I don't have the opportunity to carry throughout my day thanks to my job, but clean much less than I would care to admit. Never had a problem with rust.

Outpost probably has a bigger selection of black rifles, but Frankln Gun Shop has plenty to fondle. I have only been to Outpost once and it was a delightful experience. Wish they were closer. The Reloader's Bench in Mount Juliet has a smaller selection, but great prices.

Shooting at Denver theater during new Batman movie.
bigwakes replied to K191145's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
Obama on NBC: "We will do everything possible to keep our people safe" "My daughters go to the movies, what if they had been there?" "There will be other days for politics this will be a day of prayer and reflection." "Let's pray for less publicized acts of violence that plage our communities every day." We will see Exactly how he uses this and we know he will. -

This is good to know. I'm planning a trip to Alaska to visit family in August. I think I'll check my carry weapon for the first time.
