  1. The old guys at our gun counter know jack sh t. We've lost about everyone that actually knew anything over the last year or so. I my self usually stay away from the counter and do other things while I am there. you can only listen to people talk about how great the trash gun is for so long.

  2. Hey guys. I've got one of my uppers for sale. It's an Aero upper, DD 10.3 Barrel, BCM quad rail, Geisele gas block and gas tube. No BCG or Charging handle. I do have an extra ToolCraft NIB BCG I could sell with this if you're interested. $600.00 for the upper, $ 100.00 for the BCG.

    I fished Watts Bar last night and caught 12 Bluecats in a few hours. Caught some drifting channel ledges and dragging in back creeks. Nothing big, biggest was 12lb. But during the spawn that's how it goes. Bluegill, Shad and Skipjack was the bait.

    You guys concerned any at all about the water quality on Watts Bar? I fished it earlier this year for a week for bass and was surprised at how many warnings and reports the lake had on the water quality.

    Permission slips from the state don’t make the irresponsible responsible and a lack of one doesn’t make the responsible irresponsible. 

    Man O Man. Reading some of these comments just hurts my head. You are spot on with this.

  5. Damn that's ugly. With money and time it can be restored to it's glory.

     

    I always wanted a FAL and then last year I traded for one from a guy. It's built on a Hesse receiver so that puts a sour taste in most peoples mouths. It does have the correct widows peak feed ramps and what little I've shot it it's functioned just fine. It has a new barrel installed in it from DSA and a few new DAS mags with it too. I figure if it craps out I will just get a new Receiver and build it back.

    Not a caliber war. Just a question about the times and whether a small single stack of revolver is enough.

    Never has been.

     

    Minimum 12 rounds in a carry gun. I carry nothing smaller than 15 rounds.

  7. I know nothing of ADE but at 70 Bucks I would imagine it's not going to work long at all. The violent action a red dot has to hold up to on a handgun slide is intense. I would try and find someone to shoot with that owns a red dot on a pistol. I have a RMR on my 19X and love it, it does make shooting really easy. I would save my 70 bucks and just save for the RMR or Holosun. my 2 pennies. If you can get a slide milled for the red dot it's going to hold up longer than a plate and screws too, plus you get a lower mount to the slide. Jagerwerks did mine milling.

    That was my concern too. I asked the inspector and he pointed out that if you stop the water, the mold has nothing left to feed off. Again, I was surprised at how he didn't think this is a major issue so I guess I'll take his word for it. 

    There was some discoloration on the carpet right against the baseboard but it was very minor. Also, it looked like some of the sheetrock had been replaced at some point. 

     

    You will want to remove the mold and drywall. Once dry, Mold will not grow but you don't just leave the material with mold just sitting there. You could also left the corner of the carpet and check to make sure the backing has not started to de laminate or make sure there is no mold growing under the carpet or pad.

  9. If the wall is reading wet and there is drywall attached to it you will more than likely have mold growing on the backside of the drywall. You  will need to cut out the drywall to check. More than likely the water is coming from the downspout that was mentioned. You could divert that away and even add a curtain drain to help with drainage. You could also seal the block from the inside or dig the foundation out and seal the exterior to do it correctly . I don't think I would let it stop me from buying the house.

    This shortage is caused by people that won't stop panic buying. We are our own worst enemy sometimes. The odd thing is that if anything is in jeopardy it's guns and magazines which are actually in stock most places. It's just like the time after Sandy Hook when everyone mysteriously insisted on buying .22LR. 

     

     

    This! I've said it almost word for word before. If people would stop waiting in line to buy it and then resale it this problem would be solved. My Academy has close to 100 people waiting every day for ammo.

    Like the cat dude was saying, they recognize regulars, it would be nice if they put limits on them like grocery stores were. May stop some even if unenforceable.

    Are these guys camping out at the stores the night before? How is that rush in the AM. They wait in the car and when the first guy exits there is a mad spring to the door? I'd almost like to see that.

    The cat dude, I like it. There is a limit per customer but people still take advantage by bringing aunts, cousins, stepsons, brothers you know how it goes. As someone else said people get there a couple hours before we open and wait in hopes that we got a truck with ammo on it. At one point when we still had ammo in the back by the guns people would sprint to the gun counter to try and be first to buy. It's been moved up front now so I am not sure how that goes.

     

    Pricing on our end has only gone up a couple dollars a box. I got 9mm for 24 cents a round a couple weeks ago. I only work four hours a week to keep my discount now so I miss out on most of the ammo shipments. I don't care how much I want ammo I'm not paying 50 cents to a dollar a round for 9mm or anything really. My neighbor picked up steel cased 9mm from the outpost over the weekend for 35 bucks a box of 50, that's insane.

  12. I work at Academy part time and we get ammo in regularly. The problem is the guys standing in line and buying the ammo up to resale. I know it's capitalism but it still annoys the crap out of me. If those people would stop ammo would become much more available, a lot of times we are our own worst enemy.

    If you were to pull someone over in a rural area driving around with zero lights on and using NODs to see, what would you ticket them for?

     

    No reason, just curious. 😇

    I did not think about this while I was doing it 🙂 I have drove around my house with just my nods on and truck blacked out. I would like to try it with IR lights because I would have to imagine it's very much like daylight. I used mine to fish one night, pretty cool working a top water at night and seeing fish blow up on it.
