  1. And miss an opportunity to get on TV???
  2. Oh, I'm sure they'll convince her not to do it again. Hopefully, a judge is smart enough to realize that A. she's an idiot, and B. her intent was harmless.
  3. I got the 45 mil figure from Obama's folks. Doesn't matter what's been raised. What matters at this point is what's left right now. If Romney's folks dump that money in the right places, they can bump the numbers.
  4. I don't know how a Tea Party member would be more qualified than anyone else to give a prediction. An educated guess is the best anybody can do right now. It would be easier if these boys were out of money. They're not. Right now, any "prediction" is really just a guess. This thing is so close that we may not even know on election day. The whole thing could wind up in the lawyers' hands.
  5. As of a couple days ago, Mitt had 45 million in the bank. That's some powerful meadia too, and he owns it. You may be right, but best not count on today's polls. There's more hammering to do, and Romney has a clear financial advantage.
  6. I could picture him drinking Russian vodka. I don't wanna picture him shirtless

  8. This really sucks. One of my favorite stores. At least they got most of the inventory out of there
  9. Well... he'll win Tennessee. It remains to be seen how he does in the swings states. I'm sure hoping. To quote a friend, I'm tired of this sh#t.
  10. I use them for rest shooting, and my two bigger calibers. I also use them for more expensive 223 ammo.
  11. You should have come to the hood .
  12. I believe I would grumble at the guy that made it.
  13. I have 10. Nothing compared to the number of 30's I have.
  14. I posted to Facebook this morning...
  15. It would be cool if you could bring a knurled knob through the handguard.
  16. Well, since the gun was unloaded, she could have been attempting to <not> carry. If I was a judge, she could easily convince me that she's more of a dumbass than a criminal. In fact, I'm already convinced.
  17. You have the ultimate in flexibility, something I knew I wouldn't have when I selected carbine gas. When I move into subs, I'll start with a box of Remington factory loads and make sure the gun runs. Then, I'll try to find a sub load that works. I have relied on AAC a lot, since they were able to work "in house" with Remington. I'll be happy with one good sub load. I don't plan to cast anything, which adds more complexity. I'll use SMK's or equivalent. AAC's recommendation for a sub load... • R-P 300 AAC BLACKOUT brass • Remington 7.5 primers • 11.2 grains of A1680 powder (Adjust powder charge down as needed. Factory ammo is 1010 fps for 16" barrel) • Case length is 1.368 +0.000 -0.020 • Sierra 220 MK loaded to 2.120 OAL (this length is optimal for reliable feeding from USGI magazines) • Chamber pressure 21,100 psi.
  18. It reads like she took it into the school.
  19. A lot of both. Most of the Demwits are just gonna think it's a "Fox lie"
  20. Last one I removed was on a DPMS AR-10. Required a Dremel tool and a Sunday afternoon trip to Outpost Armory for a new gas block.
  21. I appreciate the offer. It's really just a Glock part for me. I should just go ahead and order one. .357 magnum may be my favorite old school caliber.
  22. They say you can run carbine. That's what mine is. I haven't shot any subs in mine yet. May not cycle with some of those 12 lb mortars that Dolomite's running thru his From AAC... Q: Should I look for an AR upper with carbine or pistol gas? A: First, there is no barrel length which works with mid-length or rifle gas. The choices are carbine or pistol. For barrels under 16 inches, pistol is needed - the bore is larger than 5.56mm so the gas pressure drops off faster. For barrels 16 inches or longer, carbine or pistol gas will work. Q: Well then - for a 16 inch barrel, why would someone chose one type of gas vs the other? A: If you are the type of person who prefers mid-length gas on a 5.56mm because it has less gas port erosion and less stress on the bolt and extractor, then choose carbine gas. If you want to experiment with extra fast-burning powders and are willing to either not shoot full power ammo or have an adjustable gas block - then use pistol. Remington subsonic ammo generates enough gas pressure to be compatible with carbine gas in a 16 inch barrel.
  23. I mostly use DPMS parts kits. I have one each of their upper and lower receivers (on different rifles). My first AR was a DPMS upper. I've just never had a problem with their stuff. Not the best, but real OK.
