  1. I doubt we'll know anything for a long long time about this. Trump has said repeatedly that he doesn't talk about what he plans to do, so I take that with a grain of salt when thinking about information on the ass hat that shot these people, his connections or possible help. I also think the NRA has kept there eye on the prize which is our basic right to keep our firearms and right to protect ourselves. With the hearing protection act looming, hopefully those in the press and government show themselves to be as ignorant about cans as they are bump stock's. The bitch came really close when she
  2. El Yucateco sauces and SOB (South of the Border) are my regular go to stuff. Now if you want something to put hair on your ass, my buddy got me a bottle of sauce called Flash Bang. Two drops of that in a bowl of chile is all it takes...real WOW factor.
  3. How the fuck is it that a guided missile destroyer has no counter measures that keeps something like this from happening in this day and age. There should be absolutely no reason why anything should be able to get, or be headed in the path of a ship with that kind of weaponry without some type of failsafe in place to protect or evade it. This whole thing is mind blowing to me with the end result being 7 dead crew members, and the whole incident making our technology look feeble and weak. Someone really needs to get their head out of their ass. I really would like to know the series of events
  4. Ain't no hill for a climber GOB, and I get the feeling you've climbed your share of hills through the years. I've been doing this for a fleet for well over 30 years myself and I can tell you without hesitation that 1) They all suck, not just GM, and 2) They're not getting any better or smarter in the way cars are designed when it comes to fixing them. Easy and cheap to build are priority one and two. Plenty of raping going on in the parts department to when things break.
  5. I've been getting that same sever error ever since the forum came back on line after the shutdown. Thought it would get resolved but nothing yet. VERY FRUSTRATING. Edit to ad: Are you on a Windows or Mac OS platform? I host pics via free photobucket.com. The site itself is usually a pain in the ass, but it works.
  6. Our new girl found her first turtle in the backyard today so I though I'd share a pic or two. First one is when we got her in April, second is todays encounter that seemed to leave her completely dumbfounded on what to do other than follow and watch.
  7. Congrats on the new pup DLT. I'll have to ask my daughter (Vet Tech) about the water thing. We adopted a 10wk old Shep/Lab mix back in April, she's approaching 20 weeks now and she's 40lbs and I can't keep this one away from the water to the point where it's almost imposable to water the grass or garden around her. She was a handful at first, she's still full of mischief but things are much easier now. Good luck and watch for worms in the poop, when they're young everything seems to go in the mouth.
  8. Hope they like those virgins extra crispy, and hope like hell this thing performed as well as we all want it to!
  9. Me too patriot, but it was worth it to see Justin tree Richard's ringer. I couldn't help but think back to the down fall of Red Jacket Firearms when they showed the tribute to Aaron from Gas Monkey's beginnings in the show to now....wouldn't surprise me if in the end they meet the same fate. What a douche.
  10. That second version pictured is a far cry from the kits they used to sell. They couldn't give those kits away, but with a little work it really does look like a nice compact SBR.
  11. By now you've taken a deep breath of relief, I'd still contact Beretta and give them a run through on what happened just to see if they've had any prior failures or input. Very likely ammo related but not always a given. It's a brand new weapon, sometimes shit happens. If nothing else it's a good lesson at this point for your son how important little things like eye protection are and as long as you error on the side of caution, shit can happen and you can still be just fine.
  12. Lots of good info on the Beretta forum. I always wanted to SBR one of these and it takes the same mags as my 92FS. Congrats, let us know how you like it.
  13. PSA Freedom Magpul edition blem upper and lower came in this week. For the life of me I can't identify why it's a blem and very much a featherweight of a rifle. The only question that remains is the important one, will it shoot.
  14. I'm waiting on the parts to show, but I just ordered a PSA Magpul equipped blem upper $287 and lower $149 shipped for a good beater. Under $440 gets you everything but the transfer fee and a rear sight. http://palmettostatearmory.com/psa-16-m4-nitride-1-7-moe-blk-freedom-upper-with-bcg-ch-508045.html http://palmettostatearmory.com/psa-ar-15-complete-blem-lower-magpul-moe-edition-black-no-magazine.html
  15. I believe you're a good man Squeaky, take care and god bless. It takes a strong person to do the work you and those like you and first responders do. Your efforts truly make the world a better place for those in need.
  16. I'm happy with the AR platform, but if I had to do it over .45 may have been a better choice?
  17. Sorry to learn she's taken her final checkered flag and thanks for all she gave to this place in better days. My prayers go out to her kids, friends, and family. Truly sorry to hear of this Shannon, I know she was a source of strength, a good friend, and always a race fan. Peace be with her.
  18. That's a pretty non-intrusive way to handle one. At some point I think drones are going to have huge markets. I keep waiting to see drone taser's for riot/looter control-send in 50-100 mini drones with taser capability (smile, then it's lights out).
  19. It's that time of year. PSA just sent me their Black Friday sale and once again they have the 32rd 9mm AR Metalform mags on sale for $12.99 ( the quality Metalform Colt style mags are typically $30+) so I thought I'd pass it along. http://palmettostatearmory.com/psa-9mm-smg-magazine.html
  20. Mike, you don't have a hair on your ass if you don't answer the Evil one after that...chicken shit! (Yeah, that should do it) Come on bro, you've gone dark for way too long. Remember the fun ol days and excitement when this was one of the first prototype drums...a double stack mag could re-ignite that revolution. My file could be wrong, but it shows I took that pic way back in March 08, that's been a long long time.
  21. And to all the protesters- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3aYp-pJO9FA&feature=youtu.be
  22. My fear if this is passed is from people who don't have a clue being hurt due to baffle strikes or over pressure issues on shoddy (home built) cans. Probably few and far between, but I'd hate to give the left an excuse to say "I told you so". Other than that it's a great thing and I hope they push it through.
  23. Time for a long awaited hard reboot for the country. Good luck and god speed, I hope the sucking sound of manufacturing jobs leaving our is over and Obama, the great divider's rule is dead. We can all breath a collective sigh of relief.
  24. Cheers to another trip around the sun and thanks for sharing your handy work through the years
  25. I own a Adcor B.E.A.R. Elite (that has a HK style side charger and rear charger) and found that I still prefer to go to the rear handle so I added one with a larger grab area. It comes down to personal preference, but in my case, the non reciprocating fold down handle just isn't as handy as the one on the AK.
