      ATF redefining who's a dealer

      The two rules were posted on Lexington-Concord Day (April 19th) so the clock has started. There is a 30 day comment period. Tell them how they are committing actual fraud and sedition against the Declaration and Constitution if they try to enforce the Acts outside of their jurisdiction. Or...

      UPDATE: Copper Fouling

      I suggest nothing like that. I was opining to this question. "Do you guys normally shooting rifles use these copper-cleaning products? Surprised there is not more concern out there, as so much of what you read just says to use a CLP or Hoppes to clean your bores." I do know about the rest of...

      UPDATE: Copper Fouling

      I haven't cleaned any of my rifles in years. Why? I am lazy. Sure I wipe the bore for carbon about once or so every other year. I have not noticed any degraded accuracy in my rifles. Even my K31 shoots tens and Xs if I do my part and I have not swabbed that barrel since I started shooting it...

      ATF redefining who's a dealer

      Alrighty. I had to read the statute again. I don't know why folks are getting in a tizzy about this. What did PUBLIC LAW 117–159—JUNE 25, 2022 Bipartisan Safer Communities Act do? Ask our fellow citizens who in the employ of the Congress of the States of America who are united. They say...

      The going rate for shipping containers

      Do any of you folks know what the going rate is for twenty foot shipping containers up in the Hagerstown/Frederick area? I didn't know where to post this so I put it here in Preppers.

      Thermal and preparedness.

      You're correct. I worked on PAS-13()s back in the day. The scopes had reduced distance performance when looking at a constant temperature like rain, dust storms, snow. One of my tests was to look at something outside a hundred yards off. There was no problems on most days. However, in bad...

      Thermal and preparedness.

      Helmet mounted thermal? Sign me up! The clarity of the thermals in the video is way beyond the PAS-13C/D/E which are now a twenty year old platform.

      What IS the definition of "assault weapon", officially?

      You nailed it, Smokey. You are my new best friend when it comes to the law. May I suggest you use these links from now on. Use https://www.congress.gov/search?q={"source":"legislation","congress":118} for bills in the 118th congress. Use...

      California Ban on Billy Clubs Struck Down

      My Great-uncle passed away in the early '70s. He was in the Meuse-Argonne and Ypres offensives. Worked for the Penn Rail Road after the war. Was a tough old SOB. Anyway. When my aunt was cleaning up his things she found a item that had a lead weight on one end that was braided about a foot...

      What did you do at your reloading bench today?

      So he is looking a ring crimp on the PSD brass. Yes?

      The final piece of my puzzle- Powder measuring

      '... I'm sure that I'm not living up to the ammo's potential." I believe that would be most of us. One MOA from the starting gate? Ya did good. When it comes to reloading there is more than one way to skin a cat.

      Case gauge or comparator set?

      No, but you should reload as if you are shooting F Class or PRS or ultra long range . You will not blow up a rifle if you stick with published loads AND don't use pistol and shotgun powders or have barrel obstructions in your arms (Rright to bear arms). Any skill set that can get you food in a...
