I have the Aim NiB BCG, no issues with it. Very easy to clean up, it is very slick but I keep it lubed anyways.

Quick Google search seems to show this could be an issue with the cable. https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4326234?start=180&tstart=0

Not cataracts, but I had LASIK to correct a severe astigmatism. Quality of life is much better, no more messing with contacts in the morning and before bed. And the eye tests say I have 20/15 vision now, much better than even with contacts or glasses. Shooting, my rifle groups (same rifle, same load) have shrunk slightly but pistol is still about the same. I'm not sure the rifle groups are because of my vision or just increased experience.

  Wish I could find a deal like that, I need a few more cans.

Dump them in a zip lock bag, label the bag and then place in the ammo can. Use a desiccant pack as needed in your storage environment.

Figured would post this in case anyone was looking for a good deal on some lights. I bought one of the TT-4 lights with plans to mount on my AR.   BTW, any thoughts on a good light mount? I am looking at the Troy VTAC mount.   http://www.batteryjunction.com/terralux-tt-series.html?utm_source=2014_4_1_TT_Flash&utm_medium=facebook_ads&utm_campaign=2014_4_1_TT_Flash

I hand prime everything so don't worry about the primer tubes. But when I did have to fill the tubes, I hated it - although not enough to spend the original $50 (and maybe not even $25) for a tool to help.   I think they have been around for a while, heard them mentioned several times (although the FA brand one could be newer).

  What do you think about this? More .22lr for all! http://www.guns.com/2014/04/01/new-3d-printed-rimfire-ammo-end-ammo-drought/

  The yogurt container picture makes me feel that way as well. But what if??

Not sure if this is some sort of April Fools joke, or if it is legit. Google search is finding it on a couple of different websites... If this is legit, I actually kind of like the idea. Yes, the cost per ounce is higher but if you are wanting to test a powder then this makes sense vs buying a full pound for 3x the cost and potentially having a pound of powder you do not like sitting taking up space. It would certainly not be for everyone but would be great for testing new powders.   http://bulletin.accurateshooter.com/2014/04/dot-approves-new-1000-grain-2-3-oz-powder-containers/     Here’s big (and small) news for reloaders — get ready for smaller powder containers. The U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) recently approved new smaller containers for shipment of smokeless powder. The new containers are designed to hold 1000 grains, exactly one-seventh of a pound. That works out to 2.29 ounces of powder — quite a bit less that you are getting currently with one-pound (16 oz.) containers............

Found this on the Arfcom thread, take it with a grain of salt obviously. But if the issue did start with the overseas manufacture then any ban would be complete BS.   I just spoke to Ms Dickenson from the ATF who wrote the email, she stated that it was banned because a pistol was made in 5.45x39. I asked which company made it and she said the Polish Radom company made it, it's the Radom 89 Onyks. She didn't know if they were being imported here and referred me to her branch chief who I'm waiting a call back from but I don't know who would have tried to import this as a handgun and if they did, they're just a bunch of inconsiderate jerks.  I'm concerned though that they may have banned the round based on the handgun being manufactured overseas and not imported here. If that's the case then I think this should be able to be fought.

  He threatened the Internet with a lawsuit for infringing on his rights.

Found some available!.....    :rofl: http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.aspx?Item=405810363

My quote with the part in bold was strictly to draw attention to the statement that the serial number was removed with no damage, but those pics show a receiver that is mangled. Not sure why it has been destroyed like that, just thought it was a hilarious comment. However, removing the serial plate really did not cause any further damage which is the point being made.

  Yeah since no one has the sense to ask for an explanation when he is introduced as Eugene, the guy who knows what happened and how to fix it...

  Yeah, I used to shoot that in my Ruger P90 before I traded it. 1 mag was like shooting 100 rounds of any other ammo. Absolutely filthy but it was cheap.

For all we know (think mentioned already), the two groups could have met up and Carol/Tyrese could have the weapon cache and be planning a rescue. All I know is it will be a long wait for October. I need to catch up on the comics.

That is my thought, if their position is the serial could be too easily removed, well that applies to any weapon, not just polymer. If there is a desire to remove the serial, it will be accomplished.

  Just realized that the article states the letter is from June 2013. This is the first I have heard/seen concerning it though.

Never been there, have no plans on going either. Did you speak to a ranger officer/owner/manager before leaving?

Right on the heels on the 5.45 ban talk, now a letter stating that PlumCrazy polymer lowers are illegal. I do not see any difference in how the serials are implanted on the metal strip with these compared to other receivers I have seen (including pistols).   http://www.thefirearmblog.com/blog/2014/03/30/plumcrazy-polymer-lowers-illegal-letter-batfe/   Also, look at the pictures the ATF provided....does it match this statement? "Firearms Technology Branch technicians were able to remove the PlumCrazy serial number using just a hammer and a screwdriver in just one minute and without doing any damage to the receiver."

  Yep, nail polish works great. My Smith 9mm , the white front dot somehow chipped and only half was left. I had been considering painting it anyways, but when it chipped gave me the reason to take care of it sooner. I cleaned the sight very well with rubbing alcohol and let it dry. Then I dabbed bright orange nail polish into the dot - several coats, let it swell up and start to bubble out of the dot, sit for a minute and add another coat. Once I was finished and had a very bright orange dot, I let it dry and then put 2 coats of clear polish as a sealer. It has held up great and is very visible.

I just recently purchased my first pistol light, and my plan is to shoot with the light on there because this is my bedside weapon. I want to make sure the light is going to stay on, and also be comfortable with the extra weight and how it affects recoil. I may try to tape the light to prevent the build-up, but I dumped 150 rounds through over the weekend and there was almost no buildup on the light.    My light sticks out a couple inches past the barrel, wonder if that affects the powder buildup?

  My experience is about 105-110 9mm per pound, and 75-80 .45     Guide from another website -   Cartridge Weights per 1000  380 Auto- 8.5 lbs 9mm-9 lbs  357 Sig-10 lbs 38 SPL-10 lbs 357 Mag-12 lbs. 10mm-11 lbs. 40 S&W-10 lbs.  45 ACP-12.5 lbs  223 13.25lbs

And from a couple of websites, scrap yellow brass is about $1.65 per pound. That is a lot less than what reloaders pay for brass (9mm=3cents, 5.56=6-10cents, etc.).
