I needed that today, I'll be stealing some of these

The biggest shock to me in that trivia was the use of the words socialist, Christian, and minister used together to describe a person.Trivia time: Who wrote the Pledge of Allegance?
Answer: Francis Bellamy, a socialist who was also a Christian minister, yet he didn't put "under God" in the pledge.
Bonus trivia: The pledge was originally said while extending your right arm upward and outward, which became known as the "Bellamy salute", but its use fell out of favor when the Nazi Party adopted the same salute.
The speech from Red was awesome, thanks for sharing. The last few seconds really brought the reality that is the current state of this nation to light -
Did anyone ever find out if it is actually legally posted or not?

Jest wondering I have seen so many people buy a glock and with in a year it's for sale , I see more glocks for sale than any other pistol ? Wonder why that is.
Funny, but from my experience it's just the opposite, I see more or every other manufacturer. But, it could be like mentioned above, there are just so dang many of them out there -
I've only had one deal with them, but I knew what I was getting into up front. I wanted a hi-point 9mm carbine about 4 months ago. They were the only ones still getting shipments in and selling them at pre-craze prices. I ordered and paid, then apparently they started getting in fewer and fewer (no surprise, no one else could get them at all). But, I knew there would be a wait, and they had a running list. They would call every couple weeks or so and keep me updated, not a huge deal. If I had a choice, I would have dealt with one of my LGS's simply because I don't like doing business over the phone. All in all I feel like they're good people who may try to do too much by taking in too many orders and get over their heads.

I don't think they're "in demand" at the moment, maybe during the buying frenzy just like basically any magazine over 10 rounds (i.e. the date this thread was started).Seriously? I know magpuls are hard to get right now but we (at my job) have more lancer, Troy, and c-product mags than we know what to do with. I would have never imagined promags would be in demand especially since gun legislation has failed thus far.

Completely understand. If you do decide to try it out let me know, I'd like to get down there myselfYea if I didn't drive a 12mpg truck I'd be all for the summer town range..may give the Montgomery county range a go thanks for th input fellas

I know there are some closer, but this one just opened up in Summertown. http://www.eagleeyeshootingrange.com/

My exact thought. Not that a veteran would use the advice of Uncle Joe. Not being aggressive? Holy crapJoe Biden defense of a sort?

Someone gave me a couple PMAG knock-offs made my ProMag. So far, they've worked just as well as my PMAGs.
I have 2 of the 42 rounders, work just fine for me. I did do some minor filing to change the contour of the valleys at the top rear of the mag. Sorry I know that's a bad description, but if you hold it beside a pmag you'll see what I mean -
I'll admit, I'm addicted. I met Phil back years ago when all anyone knew him by was "Duck Commander", back when they still had the actual hunting show. I guess if I could describe the feeling that I got while talking to him for a couple of minutes I would say "still waters run deep". Don't let their silliness throw you, they're all very intelligent (Si excluded lol) and extremely rooted in their faith in God. I have a ton of respect for not only their attitudes and as outdoorsmen, but for their willingness to speak and spread the word of God. I maintain that if the world had more Duck Dynasty and less MTV we'd be just a little better off.

I understand you may not think Zimmerman was justified in his shooting and why you wouldn't give him money, but why in hell fire would you send funds to help further the circus antics? I'm confused I guess.
I also said I donated to the Trayvon fund, because Zman isn't getting a dime of my money.
In a vacuum. When a thug gets shot, somebody, somewhere, always says, "he was a good boy". Based on all we have seen about Trayvon, outside of Crump's marketing campaign, is that he was an aspiring thug. It has some significance in the case because of all the original misleading media crap.
Sure, he could have been buying iced tea (actually, it wasn't) and skittles for a nice evening at home. Let's don't ignore the fact that an evening with the Cleavers didn't quite fit his character.

I haven't yet, but I definitely will. Only about 30 minutes down the road from me

I think it is to prevent overgassing more so than short stroking. Overgassing and short stroking can look similar.
The pigtail gives the gasses in the barrel time to drop before the gas hits the BCG. This extra time lets the pressures inside the barrel drop to "normal" levels before the BCG unlocks. If not then the pressures inside the abrrel will be higher than "normal" and those pressures exert more force on the case and the bolt. Those extra pressures inside the barrel as the BCG unlocks cause the BCG to accelerate at a faster rate causing the gun to have malfunctions related to overgassing.
By allowing the gasses in the barrel to reduce it reduces the chance of overgassing. Also a properly gassed gun runs cleaner, more reliably and with less felt recoil.
Anyone who has shot my 5 pound AR that is properly gassed will attest to how differently a properly gassed gun uns compared to a overgassed gun. And there has been a shift in the industry to overgas guns for "reliability".
Very good explanation. -
Supposedly increases dwell time of your gas system. I've seen people use them on pistol builds to prevent short stroking. They're known as "pigtail" gas tubes

It doesn't matter what either of them were before that night or what they aspired to be. I'll maintain that if the "watch captain“ had let the real cops do their job that night we wouldn't be talking abouth this.
You're right, he'd probably be a vegetable and Trayvon would be a hero for stopping "profiling" by the "white guy"-

Do you have a foam rubber cover over your buffer tube?
no i dont. i had it wrapped in paracord , but the charging handle was snagging it. ill probably buy a foam cover so i can get a more comfortable cheek weld on it.
Go with exile machine's rubber cover. It's what I run and I love it-

kind of off topic, but didnt want to start a new thread. my ar pistol is 9mm so its kinda irrelevant on what you guys are talking about....but
my only gripe with my ar pistol is aiming the thing. i started off with a laser mounted on the quad rail and now ive got some flip up sights. i can do a cheek weld on the buffer tube, but its kinda funky. thinking about going the SBR route because of this. what does everyone else use for sights?

I was in at $159 but they stepped over the line adding that .99 cents

I definitely wanted to press 1 to repeat. Not that I was questioning my purchase of my NFA lower, but I'm especially glad I bought it now. I can think of a few "customers" I'd love to say the same to

I personally believe that anyone breaking in a home deserves what they get, but I can't act on that feeling should I be in that situation.
For those of you using the argument that the criminal was a felon (playing devil's advocate)...
How did you know he was a felon since some of you are using that as the basis of your justification? That info would only be released after the fact (not that it has any bearing on the outcome of the homeowner being charged or not)
Remember, I think our laws on defending personal property suck
