I worked out a trade out for a new scope. Its Vortex Viper PST 6-24 x 50mm, and it came with Vortex Precision Machined low rings. I used two picatinny risers so that the objective would clear until I can order higher rings. I love this scope, the glass is super clear and it matches with the Troy MCS perfectly. And next to a S&W m&p 15 to show the size difference. Tapatalk ate my spelling.

Say I'm sorry one more time.  :lol:

Can I get a link for PSA.   I tried google but kept getting Prostate-Specific Antigen and related items.

  Kroil is the miracle oil.  Not only is it the best sticky situation unsticker it's made by a Tennessee company.

Send it to me and I'll usea hammer and a video camera to dispose of it properly. ... Tapatalk ate my spelling.

    Paul and Sonny are good people at the Trading Station. I have been doing business with them for over 20 years.   Magiccarpetrides on this forum owns a lot in Sevierville. I have bought a couple from him over the years. Name is Vince at Sevierville Auto Brokers.  I live in the Greater Nashville area and it has always been worth the trip.

:waiting:  you win.  You are indeed as your predecessors have described, and more.  Are you that insufferable in real life? Go ahead, make one more post so you have the last word in.

I'll be honest, I was really pissed off at work today. I kept thinking, I wasted prayers for these two drug dealers!!!! I still feel bad for the relatives because they did lose someone, but I hate gang bangers, I hate drug dealers, and I hate thieves! I cannot be sorry they are gone, who knows how many other people they've robbed, shot at, or even killed? Would they have turned their lives around and become model citizens? Highly doubtful, but even if they did, what did they leave in the wayside of their criminal lives....Hell, they were 19 freaking years old! All I wanted when I was 19 was enough money (from a JOB!) to take out a lil sweet thing on the weekend hopin for a lil country road romance! 

First class... I have always thought that this board has some "good people"....this is a great example of a class act. I told my son who won and he said "oh well"...and then I told him of the gift card...he says "really, why?"....I told him "Son, some have bigger hearts than others"....thank you for the example and the generosity again!

Wow! What a blessing!  She was still yelling when she hung up to tell her mom.  We all appreciate your generosity.  Pm inbound. Cherokee Slim

I'm running a dillon xl650 now, and thinking it might be worth getting a bullet feeder. Anyone have one? Or have recommendations? Because this just came today. And I need to start cranking some out!

And if you are can I get a call?

I like him as an actor and liked him in movie   The Negotiator and several others  but I hate that darn "Whats in your Wallet"? commercial he is doing right now!!!!!!!.............jmho

I'm a veterinarian; what exactly do you need?

Passed Judiciary committee 6-1-1 and will move to the Calendar committee.  

If you could qualify health wise, a cheaper option would be a TERM life insurance policy. I have a 30 year term policy for 250k, and it's twenty something bucks a month.

I own half of one.

Nice one Steve.  I love mine.  When I first looked at it and put it up to my shoulder, I was sold instantly. 

      It looks like bare metal to me.

I got the last one in stock http://tradingplacepawn.com/vortex-viper-pst-4-16x50-ffp-riflescope-ebr-1-moa-reticle.html It was slashed and it showed the sell price when it was added to cart Here's the lower portion of my invoice ... I used the $10 off coupon ... Plus free shipping over $150 Is standard

Ugly, but if it's all you can get, it still works.   I think that applies to more things in life than just this AR.

  More like Zimmerman backed out when he realized he wouldn't be allowed to bring his pistol to a fist fight.

I am fortunate to own both a 16s and a 17s and I absolutely LOVE the SCAR.  Flat out dependable, easy to maintain and I think they can do anything an AR can only better (yes, I am a little biased toward the SCAR as well as to FNH).   They are a joy to shoot and I think you'll be please that you own one.

Scar 17 is one of the best guns out there, shoots great, accurate, and loved by those who carry it overseas, unlike its younger sibling. I don't own one but have shot one, and it is just awesome. Not that anyone stateside would get to, but it is very controllable on full auto, plus the change of stocks makes it more operator friendly. It would be my next gun, if I decide to sell some stuff from my safe. 

IMO, high-gloss walnut makes a rifle too pretty to use.  I'm always afraid of dinging the stock - it's like getting the first scratch on a new car.  I like a low gloss oil finish on a pre-dinged walnut stock.   My 30 year old 10-22 has a beautifully figured walnut stock.  It spends most of its time in the safe.

I finally caught up. I watched second half of season 3 and what there is of season 4. I'm glad I was able to watch a bunch of episode in a row though because some of them really left me looking for more.

Worth a shot.  Could always be blasted off later.

   Let me know what you come up with for a bullet feeder.

    And I'm making sure your 550 still churns 'em out as well :).

  Well, ya had Rick telling Carl the zed in the roadhouse was "weak", but that was the only one an ax to the head hasn't killed yet. :)  Then again, ole Rick was pretty weak at that point too.   But yeah, really, if you're gonna postulate a crazy fiction, you need to be consistent with the "rules". That and the woefully unrealistic gun play throughout have been TWD's biggest downsides.   - OS

One more perspective from the WSJ -   http://online.wsj.com/news/articles/SB10001424052702303650204579372622361332560?mod=WSJ_Opinion_LEADTop

Congrats Rhinestone Rachel! Dave - We ALL won regardless of your additional generosity...a kid gets to go hunting and with that we all win. And without meaning to sound unappreciative of the gift card, cause I am....that was really cool of you and super generous (your type makes me proud to be an outdoorsman) there is likely someone who needs it more than I. Gonna pm ya a suggestion privately. Thanks again!

Just got mine configured, but going to carry a copy of mine. I already carried copies of rulings about "pistol-to-rifle-to-pistol" and "constructive possession" since I toted a "kit" for a while with one lower and both rifle and pistol uppers. I also will carry the ruling about the 26"/VFG thang too since mine is currently configured that way. Additional note: Just got this baby together in current confiig, and will be changing handguard, but going to make the VFG quick detach, because under exact wording of TN statutes, I can only carry or transport a "handgun" loaded with one in chamber, or transport a "rifle or shotgun" loaded without one in chamber, and with the VFG on it, it's neither. Not that your average LEO would necessarily know the finer points of ATF rulings, but no sense having such a gray area just in case. - OS

http://swfa.com/SWFA-SS-10x42-Tactical-Riflescope-P53712.aspx I have been very impressed with the SWFA Super Sniper 10x. It is built like a tank and an excellent value at $300. You can google some reviews but they are very well thought of as a great budget scope in the long range community. The SWFA's have a lot of internal adjustment so you may be able to get buy without a 20MOA rail at least for shooting out to 600 yards, I'm not sure if it will get you to 1000 without a rail. You can get better quality glass by going with a fixed scope as opposed to a variable. The SWFA has a 30mm tube so you would need new rings but you could get a quality set and still be out under $400.    Pros: You mentioned you are looking for a scope with "quality glass" and "good dependability." I suspect you cannot do better in those two areas than the SWFA.   Cons: Obviously, this is a fixed power scope which is only a con if you need something variable which really depends on the purpose of the rifle. Your Burris mount with 1" rings will not work with this 30mm tube.    One final thing to consider. You mentioned you have a Burris QD Mount. If it is something like the PEPR, you need to verify that it has enough height for the scope you purchase, especially if you are running this on something like an AR10 platform. Some optics with larger diameters will not have enough room to fit over the handguard in a PEPR mount.    EDIT: a quick google image search shows a number of AR15 and AR10 style rifles with the SWFA SS Scope in PEPR mounts with plenty of clearance.    http://i.imgur.com/G7oYlUp.jpg

“Court of Public opinion”, “Plastered all over the news” for a failure to yield ticket?

[quote name="Smith" post="1108834" timestamp="1392055562"]How hard is it to run a registration search on a pretty specific new model car like that Camero and find the guy in short order?[/quote] Wondered this myself, especially since I'm a Maury Co. resident. It's a small county, neighbored by even smaller counties. I'd be willing to bet if they were able to run registrations on Maury and neighboring counties there wouldn't be more than 10 yellow Camaros. I could be wrong, but it would at least be a start. Although, they don't deserve to be caught by the police. They deserve to pull over the wrong person, an armed citizen. That may be wrong of me, but the time these guys will serve when caught will be laughable I'm sure

Take a deep breath. Now either change the title on this to "Mods please help" or delete and start a new thread in the feedback forum with that title. Its probably just a glitch in the system, its technology, stuff happens. I'm sure they will get it cleared up. Btw, acting like a child and being pissy when you have Christian in your name isn't real Christian like is it? Tapatalk ate my spelling.

Keeping his mouth shut and staying out of the media's linelight wouldn't hurt him either! But he's an attention seeking punk that will never learn until someone kills him!   Dave

Good thing you got him. He's also a known thief. That's Joe Namath's coat that he's wearing.

A very subjective question indeed.   Well over a year ago prior to the "crunch" I maintained what I thought was a good inventory of ammunition for my activities. A one year supply of the calibers / gage I most often shoot for IDPA, trap and practice (.45, 9mm, 12 ga.). I don't shoot much .22LR so I didn't even consider that, my bad.   My reasoning for a one year supply was I would never worry or be affected by another short temporary ammo caliber shortage. Well, as the months passed and I was continuing with my monthly shooting activities, it got to the point I had to cut back my shooting or completely run out of ammo. Fortunately, the .45 / 9mm shortage eased up and I am able to slowly start restocking another supply.   Fourteen months ago whoever would have thought we would have a very long term .22LR shortage and prepared for it? After all, you could find it anywhere on the cheap.   In a free society supply and demand will always prevail eventually. The problem seems to be government laws / actions making it difficult for production and business and causing panic buying and hoarding.   Seems like most problems in our lives can be directly or indirectly traced back to the government in one form or another.   So, to answer the OP's original question, it was a year's worth. Now it's ...  dot dot dot (mathematical symbol for infinity.)   A new song has been written, it goes something like this:   A hoarding I will go A hoarding I will go Hi ho the dairy - O A hoarding I will go  :rofl:

Dimensionally loaded 223 and 5.56 is identical. The difference is pressures. SAAMI spec for 223 is 55K psi and 5.56 is more than that. Most estimates is 5.56 runs 65K. Now because of the additional pressures of 5.56 the chamber is slightly different than a 223 chamber. The chief difference is the throat in a 5.56 is slightly longer than 223. This allows the bullet to begin moving, and reduce pressures, before hitting the resistance of the rifling. Because of the longer throat of the 5.56 chamber it is safe to shoot 223 in a 5.56 chamber. Some say that you cannot shoot 5.56 in a 223 chamber. But I have shot a lot of 5.56 out of guns with a verified 223 chamber. Shooting 5.56 in a 223 will not cause some sort of dramatic failure. If it does then your gun had issues in the first place. Proof loads are well beyond the pressures encountered when shooting max 5.56 loads in a 223 chamber. Then there is the estimate that 25% of the "5.56" actually have 223 chambers. As manufacturers chamber barrels the reamers dull and most resharpen the reamer. This reduces the size of the reamer each time. There was a random test done by a publication and well over 25% had 223 chambers so if shooting 5.56 in a 223 chamber caused the gun to blow up we would be seeing it everyday.

It's totally pointless which makes it cool.

  That's a load of crap.

Pretty ammo does not shoot any better or worse than ugly ammo.    That's all I have to say about that.

just use a powder made for it 4064 blc2 4895 2460 varget rl15 any of those will work fine
