      Do You Recognize Your Country?

      I wouldn't recommend that course. If you did, then you would have 'control' directly by Corporate powers. Private mercenary armies etc. Better course is to organize and take back our government from the Corporate interests that run the show. In the meantime we have the Constitution framework...

      Great information from Buck Knives on blade shape and uses

      Thanks for the link! More than I knew, but many descriptions make sense. I'm old, but still pretty much of a novice about knives.

      Maybe you already have the wads and are just looking for the information, but this place makes all the wads and cards you could ever want. Seems like anyway. https://circlefly.com/

      Want to buy ammunition ... in California?

      No, not at this time for any components, but I did see a report that California is trying to make it so that all 'gun parts' will need to go through some approval process like background check or FFL process. I'm not real clear on the details, but thought I saw like 2025 as proposed date for...

      Metal Powder Cans

      I have some IMR powder that I believe was purchased in the early to mid 1990s and it is a metal can similar to the smaller (32oz?) metal cans (rectangular) that turpentine and boiled linseed oil used to come in.

      Getting creative with the ammo shortage

      I've heard of a guy making .375 (H&H) bullets from .223 Rem brass. Also saw where someone made .30 caliber bullets from 5.7 X 28 brass. Not match grade, more plinking accuracy, but are possibilities depending on what pressing urgencies you might encounter.

      .380 124gr hp

      Probably could be accomplished, but would likely not happen with off the shelf bullets. I remember seeing some writeup, maybe a magazine article, about extra heavy weight .45 ACP (I think) loads and they had a 'custom' bullet with a cone on the base so the length of the bullet for the weight...

      Self Checkout

      Yes Sir!, it isn't all about how much I personally benefit if the community goes down hill.

      Self Checkout

      I won't participate in job destruction and I want someone other than the store and the bank to benefit from my patronage. Here, Home Depot has only self checkout for regular folks. I make it a point to go to the Customer Service desk for checkout. Really don't like it when I am 'tricked' into...

      AR15.com is being wiped

      I just clicked on the link in the fist page of this discussion and it came up for me. May or may not look like I think I remember it. could be they updated their software version or provider. I've seen several gun forums do that lately.

      Project: Silenced M1 Garand

      The ejection angle is certainly different. Rearward for the standard and forward for the suppressed. That's what it looks like to me. Brass have any odd damage, or is otherwise normal?

      Longest time to 50 posts record?

      I'm pretty much a newbie here and was worried about how long it'll take to get to 50 posts. Well now I think I'm worried more! Doubt I'll win this contest though, too much competition.:laugh:

      WWI/WWII 30.06 ammo sourcing.

      IMO, WW1 ammunition, yes you probably could find some that is shootable but it is a coin flip on getting ammo that's safe to shoot vs damaging your weapon or possibly yourself. WW1 stuff would be best just to have for display, my opinion. You can easily find the specifications and load your own...

      Low Flash .223

      I was thing about this very recently also. Wondering what existing information is out there already, but internet searches are usually crapified because of commerce steering you to purchase options. My experience so far at least. A good chance that low flash performance would be at the cost of...

      22 Plinkster has his own line of CCI ammo

      I'm not sure comparing standard velocity ammo to hyper velocity is quite the fair test. Personally I'd prefer to see HV hollow point compared to. the 'Stangers', but that wouldn't have the same Wow factor most likely.

      Russian M44 Mosin Nagant

      I've heard that the M44s were sighted in and optimized to be fired with the bayonet extended. How many of us would really do that? Just saying. Might explain some of the groupings, but interested in reports on with and without bayonet extended comparisons.

      Do you just hate certain words?

      News reporters, when referring to a defendant in court seem all use the term 'pleaded' these days. That really grates on my ear. I grew up hearing the word 'pled' in such instances. Both are technically acceptable, but 'pleaded' just sounds wrong or lacking in verbal elegance to me.

      Woodstock, as it happened, playing now....

      For anyone who may be ok with the nostalgia and the memories of better times (my opinion), this Pennsylvania station will be playing the festival 'as it happened' complete for the next three days. Odds are taht someone will appreciate this. It is playing right now. Here's the link ...

      California Passes Law Forcing Trump To Disclose Tax Returns To Appear On Ballot

      Good idea actually. I would personally take note of all those who voted against this proposal. Alternatively and additionally, this concept would make an excellent requirement to include in any legislation to overrule the Citizens United SCOTUS decision. This ought IMO definitely to apply to...

      What are you watching on Netflix and Amazon Prime?

      For those who don't mind an irreverent and humorous look at the whole 'God, Angels, Devils, etc. thing, there is a short series on Amazon Prime titled 'Good Omens'. Pretty funny in a very British fashion. Even though on average I'm not a big fan of British stuff, I liked this one. Greffy
