You say "warranty deed" -- would that be a "General" or "special" warranty deed?

DO we? REALLY? So when literal millions of people, all over our Republic, took to the streets to make it perfectly clear that we DO.NOT.WANT. what the tyrants in DC were pushing on us, when every poll showed a majority of Citizens OPPOSED to it, when they couldn't even muster the votes without resorting to "deem and pass" or outright bribery of certain Senators and Reps -- Were we being represented? When the 8@$+@rds mocked us as "racists" and "tea-baggers", outright lied about supposed racism, spitting, etc. -- were we being represented? When the midterm saw more seats change parties

Finally got it back in. I used a piece of floss in one hand to lift the spring while I pushed it to the side of the receiver with a small screwdriver in the other. Then I used my third hand to push the BHO down, and my 4th to guide its tab through the slot in the bottom of the receiver. It really did seem to be a 4-hand job.... Anyhow... I filed a little notch in the BHO, and was finally able to bend the tip of the spring over so it should stay in that notch, now. Whew! 'Course now it's too late to get to the range... c'est la vie.... DD

Hi all. I was FINALLY able to get the da*n thing unstuck, and remove the bolt and etc so I can see what's happening in there. The BHO spring has 2 "legs" on it -- a longer one and a shorter one. It SEEMS as though the shorter one should face front - thus leaving extra length at the rear so it doesn't pop off as the BHO rotates. In mine, the longer leg of the spring faces the front. The shorter leg is just barely long enough to reach the far side of the rectangular hole in the bottom of the receiver-the hole the BHO tabs sticks through. From the looks of things even if I notch

Yes. Said "regulation" - and the "law" which supports it, are however null and void on their face because they're based on illegitimate usurpation of authority. This is a well-known, fundamental axiom of common law and has been for centuries. Ergo, you're right about what some tyrants have claimed - but utterly wrong about the legitimacy of the claim.

Dangit... One more point... Any idea that getting "approval" to own firearms at some interval is so ludicrous as to be not worth discussing. The FIRST person who was killed by someone who'd been "approved" would end the whole thing. Nobody would assume the liability of such "approval" and would simply deny everyone. So, would you put the .gov in charge of deciding, and have some .Gov drone with "sovereign immunity" handle it? When the .gov gets to decide which of us is allowed to exercise our Natural (I believe G*d-given) rights as defined in the BoR, there will cease to be any a

Wow. Just.... Wow. There are SO many things wrong with every post you've made, I don't even know where to begin fisking. **READ** the writings of our Founders - the Federalist/Anti-federalist papers, their letters, minutes/notes/records of debates, etc. There were many who believed that our Constitution **HAD** to contain an explicit "Bill of Rights" or else some future .gov would infringe. There were others who believed that the clear listing of Fed.gov privileges detailed in Article 1/Section 8 and elsewhere were enough -- after all, when you write a contract that says "Party 1

I fear that's the point where the cold war goes hot. As I said elsewhere tonight, that would unequivocally answer the "ignorance or malice" question -- they KNOW how many of us would react to that...

Duude... Yer KILLIN' me with that avatar... Both hands? YEaaaaaaaahhh..... Mmmmmmmm....... What were we talking about again? Oh, yeah... I got the top-cover off -- it's the RECOIL SPRING THAT I CAN'T GET OUT - it won't go forward far enough to clear the dovetail-ish thing on top of the trunion that the back-end of the recoil spring assy's in. I figured if I COULD get the R.S. out, perhaps the bolt would move back just enough for me to push the BHO down... Is there some way to get the BHO out with the bolt locked to the rear??!! Grrr....

That explains it! My box was MINT. The SG OTOH.... BHO has it jammed up TIGHT, and I can't see any good way to clear it... GRRrrrrrrr~!! DD PS: I'd bet the "grit" is really dessicant - "silica-gel" - from a busted packet...

You're talking about the recoil-spring? It can't come out -- it won't go far enough to clear the dovetails in the trunion that keep it from popping out. I **MIGHT** be able to pry it out -- but I sure don't want to do anything to booger it up... If I've got to take it back, you know? IS there really no way to get the dang BHO to move out of the way so I can do this the normal way? Can I remove the gas-tube and free it up that way...? Can I push a pin out enough to let the BHO drop out of the way? I really don't want to pry the spring out on a brand new gun.... :cryss:

No! The **PROBLEM** was with THE FRIGGING SCHOOL ADMINISTRATION! There was a bill in the VA Legislature to PREVENT colleges from prohibiting concealed-carry-permit holders from carrying. One of the BIGGEST opponents was the VT Admin - and they bragged about how their opposition had killed the bill! They weren't bragging after THAT turd killed 32 students. FTR, I sit here -- RIGHT NOW, AS I TYPE -- wearing a Hokie Polo, a Hokie ball-cap, and a pair of Hokie sunglasses on top. (ETA): Just in case you thought I was BS-ing you... (/Edit) My wife got her MFA from VT. My So

Wow, you really endorse this stuff? I have some choice things to say to you, but I won't. That shit doesn't work. That guy in AZ who just shot up a bunch of people followed all the laws and that didn't stop him. Like I said, people who think gun control works are brainwashed. Politicians who are in favor of gun control have a very specific reason as to why. I will: Screw you! What part of "SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED" isn't clear? Since you MAY not be a native English-speaker, let me clear something up for you... We close sentences with a little dot - known as a "peri

Brand new gun (19" S-12) - just picked it up today. I live Behind Enemy Lines - in a state that treats any Kalashnikov action as a deadly "assault weapon" -- so I had to wait a week after paying/paperwork before I could actually take it home. Last time I handled it - a week ago - it was fine. I engaged the BHO while checking it out, and left it that way. Picked it up today, and stopped to see a friend on the way home. Took it out of the box and..... JAMMED! After a bunch of looking it over, I realize the BHO is pushed up inside the receiver, and the little spring is blocking
