Free floating firing pins make small depressions, like not even a dent. It should be like 5% of a real hit, not 50%. Always check a new rifle with single rounds, and do a chambering and extraction/ejection check before firing. -
The Problem With Whiteness

This multiculturalism will kill a country for the very simple reason that, if you come from a third world shithole, and you insist on bringing the culture of the third world shithole with you, then you will turn the new country into a third world shithole. Anyone who claims to be a X hyphen American and not just an American is part of the problem. -
I don't think the Ford guy had the right reason on the dipsticks. Car company I work for stopped the dipstick on the transaxles and transmissions because people were putting the wrong stuff in there, dirty stuff in there, or over or under filling it when they did, and destroying the transmissions. They figure if the person is smart enough to want to service the trans, then they can pull the pan, service it, and fill it through the factory fill port, which is fairly easy to find, but not for the average idiot. They think that a closed system is better, and to service it at X schedule miles down

This... I can measure the open pressure loss in the valve spring on a race motor from an open valve over a one month time. All real race guys loosen all the valve springs to prevent this over months between seasons. common steel music wire springs do fatigue from full compression over long periods of time . Just ask any mechanical engineer. Or call the engineering people at any custom spring manufacturer. This mechanical engineer has discussed this very thing on here before. People believe what they want to believe.

Looking at New Deer/Target Rifles
Voltia replied to ChileRelleno's topic in General Discussion - Any topic is welcome here!!!
Couple thoughts. Ruger is fairly new to centerfires; they've been mostly a rimfire and revolver company, with some giant semi auto pistols until their more recent polymer wonders. Certainly good guns, but they were a budget company which is trying to step up. Similar with Savage. A lot of people extoll the hell out of Savage, and their recent trigger is good, too, but they are also a budget company trying to step up. A lot of people that swear up and down that Savage is the best haven't experienced anything more and have validation bias. That being said, they are good rifles. Weatherby -

I view good cops the same way I view good muslims. If you're not busting your ass to fix the system and stop the crimes of your brothers, then I really can't trust you. I'd like to, but it comes down to what motivates you. Are you going to take the side of the cop in the wrong, or the citizen in the right? I fear home invasions by police of the wrong address. What happens if someone gets no knock warranted, the cops kick down the door, and he goes Rambo and kills them to defend his family and home? In my opinion, the home owner was right, because the police were there illegally, but no -

Live healthy and get checked up at least yearly. Don't go to a small town doctor who's not worth anything. Exercise, diet, and medical checks will drastically improve your odds. That, and a positive attitude. The way you do that is tell us you're going to make it, not wonder about it. My grandma declared she was going to do 100, and she did, and in style. Broke her hip a few months later, never really recovered, and soldiered on another six months, to 100 and 10 months. She pretty much called it. -

Remington 700 Trigger Recall
Voltia replied to ChileRelleno's topic in General Discussion - Any topic is welcome here!!!
These things are rarely black and white, as anyone in a technical area knows. For millions of rifles to have a statistically insignificant amount of this behavior, and not much more, there has to be a specific set of circumstances for it to have happened so few times. If it takes extreme dried oil and dirt to freeze parts in place and not return, is that on the manufacturer or the operator? How about if it takes pressing the trigger while holding the safety halfway down to make it fire when the safety is removed? Manufacturer or operator? Depending on what you read, it apparently takes -

It is unfortunate the above happened. I have the same issue with good police as I have with good Muslims, which is that, of your brothers in your organization, some are bad, and doing bad things. If you are not standing up and demanding accounting, and change, and improving your group with 100% of your being; then you're part of the problem. I have issue with police brutality. I have more issue with how it is handled. In my opinion, a policeman who steps out of line into brutality gets the same criminal charges as anyone else for the same act. If you don't think that's fair, you can qu
