I’d send an email to the guys over at Squared Away Customs to see if they have the molds for it. I don’t see that one listed, but they’ve got all the others so I’d check with them. They make really good holster. I’ve got 3 of them in different styles for my M&Ps.

When a person steals a little, they never stop there. They keep stealing more and more. It’s a compulsion.

That’s a DOT violation.

See, there’s the difference in our views on this laid bare. I can call an action stupid (or in this case lazy) without making a judgement call on the person themselves. So, no, I’m not calling you lazy, but writing political or ideological opponents off as stupid because they did or want something you think is stupid? Yeah, that’s lazy as ####. It’s also stupid.
-
You’ll notice I didn’t use any political identifiers either. That was intentional. I still it’s it’s unwise and lazy to write opponents off as being stupid, even when they make what appear to be stupid mistakes. Doing so generally doesn’t turn out so well.
-
While my opponent may have wildly differing goals or beliefs to the point of incomprehensibility to me, I won’t let myself fall into the lazy trap of believing that he/she is stupid. Once I do that I have laid the foundation of my own defeat.

Man, ain’t that a ***** for y’all?

Dude, you’re years behind the curve on that one. I wonder if a property tax hike that big will finally tamp down on the Nashvegas population boom?

From my perspective, there’s not much, if any, exaggeration there. I haul a reefer trailer and these meat plants in the Midwest are some of our biggest customers. We refer to the area from Denver to Chicago and down to Kansas City as the meat patch. Normally this is an area my friends and I love to be in for loading. Over the last 6 weeks it has died. There’s no freight there. To give an example of that supply chain interruption, IPB is a Tyson company. I will normally bring in large loads of beef from Iowa and Kansas to the IBP plant in Goodlettesville where it is finished and packaged for store DCs all through TN and surrounding states. Those loads aren’t happening like they used to. I don’t know how it’s affecting supplies in the area yet, but there’s no doubt in my mind that it’s going to at some point soon. I’d suggest looking to the way your grand, or even great-grandparents did things. (Assuming they didn’t raise their own here.) Find yourself an actual butcher who locally sources his supply and become a customer and make friends. It won’t be Walmart prices, but it’ll fresher and cleaner meat that you might be able to get when the that same Walmart has empty shelves.

A friend of mine relayed to me a story of having dinner with the Col. at SHOT Show in 01. When asked his thoughts on the ACOG he said that if it continued to hold up in combat usage that it would be a passable optic. So I think that he would have approved of the LPVO on the scout rifle as it seems he wasn’t the luddite that some would portray him to be.

Yes. It had been determined conclusively that I was wrong.

You know, I think you’re right. I think it might be a Polish K-29 https://www.empirearms.com/21093M.jpg

AR Bolt/Carrier Problem
Chucktshoes replied to Clod Stomper's topic in Gunsmithing & Troubleshooting
Gas rings are a wear item. They will weaken and blow out with time and use. That’s a pretty catastrophic failure, but not completely crazy. Inspect the inside of the carrier for damage, replace the rings and go about your business. -
Well poop.

CCW carry from TN to Nevada on I-40
Chucktshoes replied to Johnny Rotten's topic in Handgun Carry and Self Defense
You are kosher in all of those states for the kit you have outlined. I'm a truck driver and I’m in all of those states regularly. I’ve researched the weapons laws to know where I’m legally ok and not. -
I don’t have Facebook either. Was able to click through.

It’s a Mosin-Nagant.

For the record, I was never tasered in an official capacity.

Tasers suck. That is all.

Judge Benitez voids CA ammo background checks

The ninth circuit alone has earned Trump my vote in November. The thought of him replacing RBG with Amy Coney Barrett fills me with glee. -
Judge Benitez voids CA ammo background checks
Chucktshoes replied to Chucktshoes's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
Yep. This case and the AWB case will both follow that same pattern. As a necessary step in the process, he’s a good place to start. His decisions are well written and take a lot of mental and legal gymnastics to justify an opposite conclusion. As judges go, I kinda like the guy. -
Judge Benitez voids CA ammo background checks
Chucktshoes replied to Chucktshoes's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
For the moment... In related news, Judge Benitez is the one who will hear the arguments on California’s AWB. I don’t expect that CA DOJ is looking forward to that one. -
The honorable Judge Benitez just issued an injunction against the California requirement for background checks on all ammo purchases, the prohibition of importation (bringing in ammo purchased out of state) and mail order ammo deliveries. It is readily apparent when one reads just the opener of the injunction that Judge Benitez has zero time for California’s bull####. https://www.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.casd.571335/gov.uscourts.casd.571335.60.0.pdf
