50 years ago was right around the height of the Cold War. The technology from then was and is still very capable and dangerous. The “Minuteman 3” (the only land based ICBM currently in our arsenal) went into service in 1970. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

They are doing rocket testing. What have you seen that leads you believe they haven't been creating and testing them? If he is "getting ICBM's" from anywhere else already established, he's getting ripped off by all accounts.

Dang good question, wish I knew. Someone jumps up and says nothing to worry about and then a few months later someone else jumps up and says that it is the biggest threat we have. So the people within artillery range aren’t leverage? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It isn’t at all about legality and rules of engagement, but rather about civil liability. If the church appoints a security team and then that team screws up and accidentally shoots someone’s five year old, the church could be held responsible. If there just happens to be someone that carries do the same, the church would be held much less liable. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I forget the cost, but Costco near Chattanooga has an ammo can deal where you get a .50 and a .30 can for like $12-15 bucks if I recall. Pretty sure they are China made but not a bad deal if you have uses for both sizes. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

To be fair, I sure couldn’t and doubt that most people here could tire their shoes at age four. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

What if someone uses a fake ID? Are we responsible for it or do we get a pass? What if we check and they “clear” today but next month they get persecuted. Do we have to prove when they bought it? Oh, you say the free online check I ran will suffice? I thought it wasn’t being kept as a record... Seriously, a rather large number of the active shooters acquired their firearms through an FFL with a background check. They passed because they didn’t have a history at that point. Some of the ones that did/would have failed had someone do a straw purchase for them. That’s already a serious federal crime. It didn’t stop that from happening anyways, did it? And, plot spoiler, even if you managed to eliminate 100% of the sales you would hope to eliminate, then those people would turn to either making them or stealing them.

Great! I sent the money. I hope money order was ok? But I made a mistake and sent $1,000 instead of $100. My mistake! Once it is cashed, why don’t you keep an extra $100 for yourself and send me the $800 back in cash when you send the item? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Sounds good what is the condition of the item? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I too think I would prefer to carry and attempt to protect my family and those around me rather than having a government/authority determine who is sane and who is not. Should access to mental healthcare be a thing? Of course it should. Just don’t go creating a list of sanes vs crazies and try to limit rights based on which list a person is on. Do we take away any other constitutional rights based on sanity? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Glock + RONI-SBS = NFA?
GlockSpock replied to GlockSpock's topic in National Firearms Act (NFA) Regulated
https://www.atf.gov/firearms/qa/which-firearms-are-regulated-under-nfa There are the rules directly from the ATF" Which firearms are regulated under the NFA? (4) a weapon made from a rifle if such weapon as modified has an overall length of less than 26 inches or a barrel or barrels of less than 16 inches in length; So if either of those conditional statements are true (an overall length of less than 26 inches or a barrel or barrels of less than 16 inches in length), you have a firearm regulated under the NFA. Furthermore, there is this, which makes it as plane as day: https://www.atf.gov/firearms/qa/if-person-has-pistol-and-attachable-shoulder-stock-does-constitute-possession-nfa If a person has a pistol and an attachable shoulder stock, does this constitute possession of an NFA firearm? Yes, unless the barrel of the pistol is at least 16 inches in length (and the overall length of the firearm with stock attached is at least 26 inches). However, certain stocked handguns, such as original semiautomatic Mauser “Broomhandles” and Lugers, have been removed from the purview of the NFA as collectors’ items. -

I ran across something to that as well. The exception seems to be if the stock is easily removed it is measured without the stock attached. -

I seem to recall that about the X95 as well. I suppose bullpups would be about the only thing in danger of of being in the =>16" barrel but <26" overall rules. -

GlockSpock replied to GlockSpock's topic in National Firearms Act (NFA) Regulated
Well, the bottom one is the "long version" and has a barrel over 16" and overall length over 26". So it isn't NFA either. -

Separate but related thought process: Interpreting the word or correctly would mean that if something has either a barrel less than 16" or is less than 26", it's an SBR. So that means in this case even if the overall length was 26"+, it would still have to have a 16" barrel. However, what's interesting to note is that if something has a barrel that is 16" or greater but is less than 26" overall, it is still an SBR. I cannot think of and do not think there are likely many examples that have a 16" barrel but <26" overall length, but the possibility is out there. Yep, this whole thing is a big no-go. -
An unnamed member here and myself are conversing as to whether or not this would be legal. He wants to purchase a "RONI" and install his Glock to make it essentially a Glock carbine. The product in question is here: https://usa.caagearup.com/roni-m4-pistol-carbine-conversion I argue that it wouldn't be legal without a tax stamp. He argues that it wouldn't be an SBR because of the following in bold: An SBR is legally defined as a rifle with a barrel shorter than 16 inches, or an overall length of less than 26 inches. Pursuing that route requires registering the rifle as a Title II weapon (often referred to as an NFA weapon) under the National Firearms Act (NFA) and paying an excise tax. But even then, if that were the case, the catalog for this product lists it as 62 cm, or 24.4 inches. So even in that regard, when closed/retracted, the overall length is less than 26 inches. Some of the RONI kits advertise as "NO NFA REQUIREMENTS". However, the "RONI_SBS" (which appears to simply be one of their standard RONI kits + a " Skeleton Style ButtStock, or SBS), does not advertise as being "NO NFA REQUIREMENTS". Anyone should be able to click the above image to bring it up full-size. Thoughts anyone?

Certainly very interesting. I myself have a decent accounting mindset and reconcile every single one of my financial accounts daily. Even I cannot see myself doing what you do! But what is more impressive is the number of rounds through that .45 Colt! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Well if it is too large (which, I know how large it is, I used to have one), maybe buy a Glock 17! Larger capacity. The M9 sure is low-cap for its size. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Ok. Then carry an M9 if you want. I don’t care. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

And to me, even more importantly, the magazines, parts, and accessories are generally much cheaper but yet produce excellent results per dollar spent compared to other brands. Also, compatibility between 19/17/26 and 23/22/27 is, in my opinion, unmatched with any other handgun system out there regarding magazines, internals, and holsters. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

There isn't a lot of models availible but pretty good pricing for what they do have: Streamlight Sale

Read 11/22/63 authored by King. It has about as much credence as that theory in my opinion. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
