Disagree. I've seen one that was either poorly assembled or machined. It had feed issues until it locked up. Turned out it kind of blew up the BCG. It was sent back to PSA and refunded for being garbage.

If I'm not already on those lists, I'd be shocked.

Well this is interesting.

Private Tennessee Mountaintop Base with Airport Runway For Sale

Paper mill is still going strong. When the wind blows the right way, I can smell it something fierce in Michie. -
I don't think that's accurate. The Mosquito pre-dates GSG by about 20 years.

There are still a TON of slip joints and lock backs being made and sold these days. They aren't the norm. But the tactical folder market exploded in the late 90's, early 2000's. The market is big enough for it. But even a lot of the custom tactical folder guys are making slip joints regularly now. The market is leveling off.

Yall should check out the Mark of the Maker podcast episodes that have Bob Terzuola. Bob is one of the fathers of the "Tactical Knife" and he talks about what makes a knife tactical in that podcast. Basically it boils down to one handed operation and concealability. Prior to "tactical" folders, you had a lot of knives that required two handed opening or big fixed blades that weren't concealable. Bob said you should have knives that you can carry without being seen but be able to open it if on a ladder. So those are really what makes a knife tactical. Hidden from plain view but easy to operate with a single hand.

Nothing recent. I've missed out on a few Ruger 96 models and some M6 survival rifles because I thought the price would maintain. I was wrong.

You can't come up in here with a story like that and not tell us what gun it was.

Glock fangirls will buy. In numbers. Remember when the thinking was that Glock needed to make a 17 slide on a 19 frame and it would be the perfect gun. But instead Glock made a 17 frame with a 19 slide and people went nuts for it! Glock fangirls will fangirl, no matter what Glock tells them they need.

Man that brings back some memories. My dad and I were huge Nascar Die Cast collectors. I still have everything new in packages in my attic. Davey Allison was my favorite driver so its always cool to see Davey stuff.

Older. Think more WWI era.

Hedge fund forced Cabela's merger, decimated jobs in Sidney, Nebraska

This is the risk you run when you put too much stock of your company out there. If you don't want this to happen, never have an IPO or always make sure that you retain at least 51% ownership. -
I don't believe that you can compare them purely by weight. I know people that don't smoke an entire marijuana cigarette in a sitting but will inhale three or four tobacco cigarettes at a time. As for your last little bit there, you keep harping on that but have yet to provide any evidence of an increase in crime. You keep trying to insult other's intelligence by saying that they lack common sense if they don't agree but you have yet to back it up with any studies, anecdotes or evidence of an actual crime increase in any place that it is legal.

Which grip angle? It comes in two different versions.

I'm a Ruger fan boy and have never denied it. Between the two, you can't go wrong. It's going to come down to cost at that point. Which are you more comfortable dropping cash on. Depending on what kind of single action you got, you could still have enough money to get an accurizing kit and give the Ruger a better trigger. Or maybe an optic. Or any number of other things. But the Smith 41 is a classic. I tell you want, give me all your gun money, and then I can make the decision for you.

There is valid reason to think that prohibition and crime are linked. And then your last sentence has as much to do with it as anything. If actual crime is prosecuted and properly punished, crime rates will drop. We need massive criminal justice reform. Start with getting rid of THOUSANDS of laws. An easy way to tell will be is there a victim, other than the state. If the answer is no, then its not a crime, delete it from the books. After that, start actually punishing people convicted of a crime. Give public defenders a chance to actually familiarize themselves with cases and the ability to mount a proper defense. Prison reform also needs to happen. Every prison should be self sustaining. How they make that happen, I don't care. But the prison system should never cost law abiding citizens.

Let's just take those first couple a step farther and anyone that does 1 mile per hour over the speed limit also has NO regard for the law and is probably gonna axe murder everyone they meet.

Plenty of people have jobs. Per the Trump lovers, more than ever! I would imagine that, much like alcohol, they use their paychecks to feed their hobbies. Kinda like gun owners. I think most people on this board probably use jobs to pay for their fun time.

What to do with my SBR (AR).

Blackout is designed to burn all powder in a 9 inch barrel. I don't know of any other cheaper cartridges that can do the same. -
I believe that we as humans have a moral obligation not to infringe on each other's liberty and sovereignty. Your chosen occupation does not exempt you from that.
