I guess we can start to glimpse why Europe/socialist can't get it together. they believe their own propaganda. I remember my late grandfather telling me about when he was teaching a seminar on agriculture and economics to government heads and educators of former soviet block countries at the University of Kiev in the Ukraine. He said the thing that amazed him the most was when he started talking about profitability in agriculture. He said that when they started talking about profits, hands went up all over. He spent the next hour explaining what a profit was and how you need to take in more money than you spend. He spent extensive time in the Ukraine and Argentina trying to get their cattle herds up and he would tell us all the time that they just don't get it. the socialist indoctrination is so deep it is hard to get rid of.

Correct. Sabre makes their own if i'm not istaken and they are considered high end good. I have one of their lowers on my AR build and am very pleased with it.

I think one of the most telling stats is the divorce rate among LE. My brief stint in I could tell it would be psychological, ethically, and spiritually draining for all the reason above. After being forced out of the Academy due to injury, I have almost decided there are other things better for my family. I don't think I will go back.

Again my friend facts. Fact is only one of these massacres have involved anyone with a permit, 2 the laws have actually been loosing in the last few years allowing more permits and ironically less gun crime. hmmm? I would post links but you would probably argue they were part of the conspiracy of lies to make socialism look bad. Nice call!

I like it..... when I remember it is there.

First off, socialism was a relatively benign term used for centuries to refer to many different things. It was Marx who made a popular and relevant term when speaking of politics and societal order. You are correct that socialism is not Communism. However, Socialism inevitably leads to governmental oppression in one or more of several forms of Government organization - Fascism, Communism, China's current hybrid, but all end with dicatators because someone has to be the ultimate arbotor. Wester judeo Christian sociatal organization is based on the fundamental principals of absolute truths/freedoms and mans free will. We are slowly changing those fundamentals and so the decay you see is as follows. What non- judeo christian societies use as a foundation tend to secular humanism and so man has to be the one who determines absolutes. So far no one has done that very well. Of course all this is mute becasue facts have already been discussed and ideas shared and yet you pose yet another sci-fi book explanation for why Crotia and socialism is so much better. BTW the Croats/Serbs/Gauls/Western Mongols have a very poor track record for governance and staying out of conflicts. In fact I do believe it is out of that region that every major conflict in modern history has originated, even going back as far as Alexander the Great.;) "None so blind as he who refuses to see." and that is why socialist contries can't get it together.

i personally like KAC's or Magpuls better.

Again you miss the point. folks here were not happy about the original TARP or bailout as was most Americans. Polls (take them with a grain of salt) show that and were not even close. The "regulations" are what caused all this mess in the first place. Trying to interject even infantile socialism is what has led to these failures. Same as what happened in the 20's/30's. The Auto industry + government forced union contracts, cafe standards, etc = massive failure. Banks/lending + government forced loans, and loan guideline = MASSIVE failure. None so blind as he who refuses to see, my friend Db.

Only thing I like is the Classified Rating. It is much easier to use than posting +1 stuff in another forum, but I much prefer the old listing way.

They look a little wider in the trigger guard and around the top. I do like the grip tang that puts you hand a little lower. BTW i saw these over on AR15.com but couldn't find anything else about them.

K&D is awesome! Looooong wait though. The Silent Thunder is all marketing and serves no real purpose. There were some opinions posted about it in another thread http://www.tngunowners.com/forums/handgun-carry-self-defense/13907-tucker-answer.html. Tucker does good stuff, though.

Ah, thank you.

It's an Argument of the Beard. There is no definite answer, you just have to know it when you see it. The problem is some aren't looking. We are on the same road as good intentions.

On the home page in the "Online" status box some peoples names have "+" after them. What does that mean? I also see it in my user profile in the box that tells me who has visited my profile.

Anyone seen or used one of these? Looks interesting. I wonder if Ironman will deliver it! Stark Equipment | Redefining Firearms Accessories

I went to Specialty Arms once about a month or two ago and my experience was pleasant. Prices were decent and they had a fairly large assortment of stuff. Gun City is a "never will I go again" store. Can't stand them or the dungeon. Prices are awful, selection is non existent, and the dungeon is just dangerous.

Kingpin! HaHa!

Man I like those Lage uppers. Makes a run of the mill Mac look legit.

Wow.

I personally think it is probably a good thing that Dollywood and most amusement parks post. Having a gun get loose on a roller coaster or getting enough force on a piece to discharge it would be bad for everyone. Plus they are highly controlled on what comes in so the likely hood of a scenario in which you would need deadly force is probably next to nil. I mean seriously, they ban people who have heart problems, undersized folks, and pregnant women from most rides but you don't have the ACLU suing any of them.

That sounds like a good idea, but if you have paid attention to politics the last few years - it doesn't work. The more you allow the opposition to control the conversation you loose exponentially more ground. What we need to do is be more active and outspoken and not worry about every little possible setback but fight to win the war and not every little battle. The anti's will report on whatever they want to and spin it to their own end. running around trying to put out every little fire will only make you tired and teh fire will rage.

Contact Steelharp. He's been around a while and is in the buisness.

For a great place a lot closer go to Guns and Leather in Greenbrier. They have a ton of NICE AK's and AR's in a variety of configurations and calibers. there are so many it is sometimes hard for me to tell what I'm looking at.

No quicker than anything else they are trying to use to push it through.
