Re: Wheelchairs at the gun show?

boy howdy, seems like this joint is gonna go the way of the censors, buncha whiners cry because their feelings butt hurt cause they didn't have the cajones to do a little research before they asked for info. Laziness imo, of course i've probably been guilty of the same thing on more than one occass...

Re: Wheelchairs at the gun show?

No, for doing little more than posting vitriol and bile in almost every thread you respond in. There’s having an opinion, but you tend to do little more than bring hate and discontent to this site. I don’t know why you seem to be so angry at everything, but it really is getting old. Even the simples...

Re: Wheelchairs at the gun show?

My gawd, some of you people have become friggin' democrats. Look, first thing I thought of was "wow, Google has the number listed", and yet not one of you suggested he/she call and find out. My response was to maybe push him/her to use his/her noggin and do a little research. Look, here i...

Re: bolt over base

Yeah, the hex is probably seating too deep in the well causing it to drag and short stroke.

Re: AR-15 builder in Phoenix

You ever get around Florence, I’ll show you how to do it, not difficult, especially since I have the tools.
Got trained on building them at the NFTTU in Benning many years ago, and I’ve done more than a few.

Re: Best PCP? Hunting.177 vs .22 vs .25

And louder too if that matters.
The Gauntlet 2 seems a good choice in .22.

Re: CMMG AR-15 .22 L.R. Conversion Kit

Those kits are OK, but a dedicated .22 upper is better. The two issues are twist rate is way too tight for .22 rounds, ideal for a 22 is 1in14 to 1in16. Also, if you shoot a lot of .22 out of an AR upper it will eventually clog the gas port and tube which doesn’t matter for the long rifle, but will ...

Re: Ceramic plates do NOT spall

Another point for ceramics is weight. My level IV weigh about 6 pounds each, AR500 plates are about 12 pounds each. Not that I disagree about spelling or ceramics being lighter, But Ar500’s heaviest steel plate is only 8 lbs. No, the plates I looked at before deciding to spend the extra all weighed...

Re: S&W M&P 22 Pistol with Brace

Mine has been very reliable and accurate. Seem to like CCI best (no surprise), mini mags when just plinking, their subsonic when suppressed, Federal value pack Ammo runs well also. Seems to short stroke with Remington. The only complaint I have is the same for the rifle and it’s just a personal grip...
