Actually, it was George Santayana in "The Life of Reason": "Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it", although there is some disagreement about the translation from Spanish. Anyway: Yesterday I drove past a rally where a bunch of guys in pickups with oversized Confederate...

Very nice work. You are a true artisan.

Wow. That nine year old girl really deserved to kill her father, grow up without him, get married and have kids that will never know their grandparent, and live with the fact that, while it certainly was he that screwed up, she pulled the trigger. And you post that final line. You have kids...

Used and liked them for yeears without problem. Could be a crappy underlying spring, though.

A bolt catch should never look like that. Spikes is not known for their precision, and they swapped out a part with even worse reputation. Sadly, I think the best option would be replacing the lower kit with something higher quality. If one part is that bad, do you want to trust your (or...

Thanks for the replies. Now I've got yet another project. Mike, I'll PM you when I do. Thanks.

Nope, absolutely nothing personal. Just a side rant. But sometimes overlooked in our circles. Take care.

Reminds me of the scene in Blackhawk Down where he points to his head and says "This is my safety". Seriously, anyone local to Charleston modified theirs? I would love to permanently remove mine but would like to have someone who's done it walk me through. I can put an AR15 lower together so I...

Actually, this is historically incorrect, although commonly believed. Religious freedom from England forced the puritans to Holland. When they feared their children were living in too permissive a society, they again fled to America. Ironic, and typical of people who think that freedom of...

Amazon "reprices" higher when you look at some items multiple times. I've noticed this quite a few times. It shows you're interested so they can get more. Little known tactic they use. Uggghh. Just search again from a different IP.

Actually, the site admin can set a cookie in the server (robots.txt, IIRC) that tells Google and other well-behaved spiders not to crawl the site. Doesn't affect regular web user in any way. I always set it when I ran sites. Would highly reccomend it here, too.

RUGER SCOUT RIFLE

I have that in 18" heavy barrel, no can (yet :D). It is indeed a sub MOA out of the box. I've only taken it out to 300 yards. IIRC, 308 is about optimal at 18", equal to a 30-06 out of 24" I probably wouldn't cut it all the way back to 16". 18" would get you some length and weight...

Yeah, some ranges won't let you take brass as they sell it themselves. I usually just offer to be the "broom *****" when I see someone using brass I want. Never been turned down yet :D

This is correct. It's on 78 - The Eastport Industrial Park. http://sccommerce.com/news/press-releases/american-tactical-imports-establishing-operations-summerville

Federal LE 133 00 buckshot. 8 pellets, low recoil, designed for and used by law enforcement. FliteControl wad for excellent patterning. http://le.atk.com/ammunition/federal/buckshot/default.aspx Click under "Tactical" Available everywhere, at least online. Assuming one has decided to pick up...

Umm... Be careful. AFAIK, Glock strongly discourages using reloads in their barrels to the point of voiding the warranty as they have a tendency to go boom. Something about a tighter than normal chamber. I also have a G20 (Gen 2) and considered reloading for it, but I decided otherwise. Yeah...

This idea worked well at another forum I used to belong to in VA: Each "official" sponsor got a stickied forum, closed to normal user posting, where only the sponsor posts deals and announcements. The rest of us riffraff, including "unofficial" commercials could start threads (including...

Kubrick did that first in "2001: A Space Odyssey" way back in '68.

No kidding. I could stare at that thing for hours. Avtomat-Acolyte always has great GIFs.
