  1. The third allen wrench was a joke. Normally comes with 2. BTW... stake your castle nut!
  2. He was thinking... see post 2
  3. Yep. I have them on my two scoped rifles.
  4. I changed my mind! Bachman for president!
  5. There are several models at several different prices, depending on features. The cheapest one is fine... Ruger® 10/22® Autoloading Rifles
  6. I don't think you'll go wrong with a Marlin, or the Remington either. It's just that most pick the 10/22. I like removable magazines, and ruger has the best.
  7. The Ruger 10/22 is the most popular, and for good reasons. I have one. Not sure if it's over your budget, but it's what most folks buy. There's huge aftermarket support, so you can upgrade it as much as you want.
  8. I don't mind if a candidate is a christian at all. most of my favorite people are christians. I mind if they plan to use their power in office to make it law.
  9. People that focus on hot button social issues are the ones that can't deal with the real issues. When I hire somebody to do a job, I don't care about their religion, or their views on other social issues. I care about their ability to do the job. I care about their history that convices me that they can do the job. And yes, I care about their character, but it's limited to what's necessary for the job. Folks that use cheap tricks to win votes is one of our biggest problems. We need to deal with abortion when it get on the top ten list of threats. Right now, it ain't even close.
  10. I'm interested in Perry because he hasn't ruined Texas. And, he's been there since Little George left. I'm interested in someone who has actually done the job well. Chest thumping about abortion and homos may get the base, but won't win over folks that just want somebody to run the government. Besides, our biggest problems got nothing to do with homos.
  11. ... and you mean to tell me that if you're in fear for your safety, you're going to open the door? Good luck with your tactics, man. Understand also, that I would want to do the same thing. I just wouldn't.
  12. Yep. Felony. End of discussion about how you will apply your weapon, because it eliminates the "your" part.
  13. Don't think you can beat that price. If you're not in a hurry, and they really show up, you done good.
  14. I haven't heard anything but bad comments about them.
  15. I LOVE the Hogue AR pistol grips. I have them on two of my AR's and Magpul on the other two.
  16. My buddy was shooting my rifle with the BattleComp in the next lane, while I was shooting the one with the A2. There was no muzzle blast hitting me in the face, and it wasn't loud enough to piss me off.
  17. My experience has been good with the BattleComp, but it's not a typical brake. I didn't buy it to reduce recoil. I bought it to control muzzle rise, which is what slows your followup shots. Typical brakes are loud, especially to the folks standing next to the shooter. The BC is a little louder, but not by much. I didn't really feel a major reduction in recoil when I started shooting it, but the muzzle tends to stay put. I have two carbines with the same barrel that are essentially the same weight. One has the BC, and one has an A2 flash hider. A few weeks ago, I took a buddy to the range with both rifles and a buttload of ammo in loaded mags. We grabbed a couple of lanes at Stones River. Except for a couple of cool-down periods, we shot continuously until we ran out. We swapped rifles a couple of times during the session. All that to say that I have a good feel for what the BattleComp does vs a stock rifle. It really does reduce recoil, and does the muzzle control function VERY well. I tend to step away from the firing line when somebody in the next lane is using a brake. I didn't have a problem shooting next to the BC. I know it's about the most expensive muzzle device out there. If I decide to put a compensator on my other rifle, it will be another BC.
  18. I like the BattleComp.
  19. I'm sick of Ivy League brilliance.
  20. I'm not a fan of either one of those guys. Not that they're always wrong.
  21. Yep, even if he showed up as a talking snake.
  22. Texas is tough. I've just started taking a closer look. Maybe it's just optimism. I look at all the others and just see four more years of Obama. He won't get my vote. But if the Pubs put up somebody that's weak, crazy, or both, they're gonna lose again
  23. I like Dave. He's not full of crap.
  24. Doesn't bother me, if he sticks to what he's supposed to be doing. He's not running for pastor. Fix the economy, and the other government things that are broken, and don't worry about who's sticking what into who among consenting adults.
  25. How about another Guy from Chicago? Perry may be the only guy that can win.
