  No can do. I have a Geissele High Speed Match trigger on the way. It don't work with shiny hammers. The brass is in stock at Midway for $75/100. It's Alexander Arms headstamp packaged in bulk, but really Lapua brass. That's a helluva deal for Lapua brass.

  Sure post is just last leg. It ships via UPS, and then transfers to the post office locally. Mail Innovations transfers at the shipper's end.

  ... or UPS Sure Post, where the post office does the last leg. That's 3 days from Midway. I actually like that in some cases. If it's a small package, it winds up in the mail box instead of on the front porch, so I don't have to be here.

I've probably sent one of Larry's kids (maybe two) all the way through college. I've had to call customer service once, and they bent over backwards for me. 99% of my orders got here in two days, probably on the same truck that stops at your house. I have been stuck with their default crappy shipping a couple of times, and almost sent a whiney email. Send them a whiney email. I wish they would let me set my own default to ground.

  Getting done with Midway is like lopping off your own pecker because you got involved with a crazy woman. They are a top shelf vendor. I've tracked a gazillion packages out of there. Email me the tracking number.   Duh. I see you posted the tracking info. UPS Mail Innovations SUCKS!!! Don't ever let them stick you with that. UPS Sure Post is 3 days from Midway, and more than once, I've had UPS decide to deliver instead, getting it here in the normal 2 days. UPS Mail Innovations is plain old mail, and sucks sucks sucks. Midway defaults to cheapest shipping. So, technically I guess it's their fault for sticking you with the turd of the shipping industry. Just watch next time, and don't let it go that way.

  I forgot glass. I'll probably go with a FFP PST. Don't know where that money's gonna come from. I can't give up my beans without starving to death :)

  Yep. I don't even know the details. I'll leave that to guys like you that have the training, and have actually been in fire fights. i don't know what I would do, although somebody shooting at me would really piss me off :)

Guns 31 has two posts comprised of some serious Yeager bashing. Like him or not, Yeager does have a lot of satisfied customers. Some long standing members here have trained with him, and were happy with the money they spent. I don't recall any of them putting him above Travis. They were just satisfied with their "purchase".   Now, James is a loud boy, and some folks are just not gonna like him. I haven't even tried to make sense of that situation in Iraq. I'm not the best one to judge that anyway.   But... to join TGO with a bashing agenda may not be something that Loud James would do.    So, welcome to TGO, Guns 31. You bringing anything to this party besides a hardon for Yeager? :)

I'm thinkin' that was the whole point of the video. All the setup material was weak

Another shoot 'em up in a place that hates guns. How come this stuff doesn't happen around us gun totin' rednecks?

  Agreed, but it ain't even that. Don't ever point the muzzle of a gun at any part of your anatomy and pull the trigger. It's the best way to get shot

OK, I'm up to 300 rounds of brass. That should give me a good start. With the exception of some bullets, and maybe some powder, I think I'm done until they ship the barrel.

  Yeah, I've seen my UPS stuff move on Saturday. You're right. 

My stuff is probably on the same truck. Also ordered on 10/31. UPS doesn't move on the weekends.

  Specify UPS ground and it's back to normal, as long as they're just not too busy to get it out the door.

Things have really shifted. Used to be, Fedex was the best for most stuff. Right now, Priority mail is best overall. UPS ground is as good as long as you're in the 2 day zone. UPS will deliver early, and will even deliver the Mail Innovations stuff when they can. I have a Midway package showing up today that was supposed to go to the post office, but wound up on the UPS truck for delivery. I'm also signed up for UPS Mychoice. Every time one of those Surecrap shipments comes my way, I get an email with an option to ugrade it to a real UPS shipment for $3.50.   And then there's Fedex. Those assholes will leave your package sitting there until it's scheduled. I avoid them.

They started using the UPS surepost crap. UPS ground is two day shipping.

That's great news! I has screwed around on mine to the point that it's gonna be tight even with a short turnaround.

  Video cameras are way too cheap these days :-)

  There's proposed legislation about everything. I just don't ever see them removing the ability to act immediately. Sure, the law was designed to be abused. Sure, it's gonna be abused, like most other laws. But since there IS a review process, and a path to reinstatement, my money says that it will never change. 

  I looked at nickel boron as well. Won't impact accuracy, though. The bolt doesn't even start unlocking until after the bullet passes the gas port. I ordered a plain ole phosphate Spike's BCG.

It's really not a big deal. If I was going to shoot full auto, I would get the BCM. Other than that, any of the milspec BCG's shout be fine. I'm glad Palmetto bug is offering one..

  One more time... BCM puts their BCG in a gun and tests it. That should, and I'm sure does add to the cost. It ain't just about specs. I'm sure they're both fine. BCG's are limping in a semi-auto gun to begin with. 

  Every once in awhile, you just hit one out of the park. This is one of those times.

  It don't pay to piss lawyers off either :)
