It seems that the cleaner you are, the more "suspect" you seem. Probably because they've tried to set up the system with its myriad laws to intentionally entrap every good citizen somehow, and are perplexed when some people remain untainted. </tinfoil hat>
Not to burst your bubble, but this is how my logo displays on a desktop using Chrome v. 103.0.5060.114, with color mode Basic Dark. The other color modes do appear correctly, however, so thank you for your work!
In my own anecdotal experience, I never used to get delays in Massachusetts. Had an LTC no restrictions/all lawful purposes, yadda yadda. Then did a personal xfer once maybe 5 year back for an FN49 Turk (old school surplus rifle) at an FFL and got a delay. Then got a proceed in a couple days...
That is so freakin awesome that it's making me want to buy another 10/22 to do this! For extra "wtf" factor, I can display it between my real M1 Carbine and the other 10/22. Sweet setup (I even like the tri-mag)!
Straw purchasers and drug dealers are scumbags and get zero sympathy from me.
But the problem I have with these headlines are the vilification of: sporting rifles (assembled or not), quantity of a protected item outlined in the Bill of Rights, and the goddamn fucking asinine description of body...
I may be incorrect, but not absolutely. To your point, objective morality may only exist in limited amounts. What I think is right, you may think is wrong. Or, what both of us think is right (or wrong) may be for completely different reasons. Therefore not everything can be filed into...
But then there are some people that believe two wrongs make a right. Someone steals their things? They steal someone else's things. In American culture, this is not generally accepted because stealing is against the law. But that person might feel better from their theft, which is justified...
The problem with this argument that you borrowed (and I respect Penn and his political talking points immensely) is that this assumes objective morality. How is it there isn't a source for morality -- that it just is?
To oversimplify ALL of this and other posts: the only numbers that matter between the comparator and the seating dies is the delta (change in) measurement (bullet type specific).
If I didn't have any morals, the money would be rolling right in. You know how many 9mm I have? Hundreds. Literally... hundreds. :sob:

Got a pretty great gift today from my sister who knows me pretty well, obviously:
I plan on using it someday if the end times are near and they start actually saying something about me being maskless (I have yet to be asked to put on a mask while I go about my business in box stores).
While a sensationalist meme and poorly written, it is stating that the Earth's population could fit into the area of Alaska if it were as population dense as NYC. The acre-per-person is referring to "habitable land" on Earth, not Alaska. While estimates of "habitable land" that discount...
First photo is from when I mounted the reproduction Springfield 1861 that I inherited from my late uncle.
Second photo is her dressed up in the Christmas spirit.
I'm one of two salary non-compliers at my job (in my particular group out of dozens of groups worldwide). One works remotely full-time, and I am completely able to work remotely other than the fact that they need mildly intelligent (and I do mean mild, it's a low bar) salary workers to be...
I currently have around 100 rounds for it. About 2/3 of the monograph covers customized tooling for dis/assembly and reloading, and includes a few vendors that carry projectiles and brass. Appreciate the info on Jamison brass, I believe Graf & Sons carries them. I already have a full set of...
Among the items I had acquired from my late uncle was an early production Winchester Model 07 in .351 SLR (photo below). As I knew absolutely nothing about the rifle or caliber, other than how obscure it was to me, I sought out to find as much information as I could. I'm a small collector of...
I'm bad at being punctual with these posts. I got this weeks ago, but after waiting only 1.5 months for it to be built (actually not sarcasm) the missus and I are the new owners of a 2022 MDX. We're going to need the extra cargo space in a few months when the little gal in the photo can't be...
The only way that's not a 10 is if you shot something smaller than .30". Those holes are all folded in, I bet if you held a bullet or calipers to it, it would be way over the line.
My plan is to use them for my 300 Blackout AR. Like @gun_slinger_boy said, they're harder primers to prevent slam fires with free floating firing pins (no spring retention) like in the AR and even the M1 Garand. These hardly ever occur unless there are other discrepancies like a poorly seated...
I'll start. (Don't tell @TPatriot that I went without her.)

I guarantee that you will. This is a nice welcome to the forum, and looking through past challenges, I appreciate what you've been doing for all of these years @dsdmmat.
@TPatriot has only just caught the shooting bug (from me, I admit), and I know that these postal matches are exactly what...
This needs more love! I have a thing for antique and surplus rifles with a story, typically told through their stocks. As such, when I need to make a stock repair, I try to make it visible to add to the character of the rifle. Not trying to derail, but in the spoiler tag below I have my FN-49...
I use CAD (SolidWorks 2019, PTC Creo 4.0) for work, so I was planning on converting from the STEP files and mirroring parts using that software. I also planned on making any modifications as needed, both cosmetic and functional. I don't personally own a 3D printer, but my friend has a few that...
I may use these and see if I can modify the 3D models for a left hand ejection port. This will be a "lifesaver" if I can do this successfully (for @TPatriot at least). Unsurprisingly, I have not been able to find any LH ejection port loaders anywhere. Mean Arms explicitly state on their...

Finally spent a few doll hairs to start making my shy freedom rifles able to be more extroverted, and so the missus (caught the shooting bug a few months ago) can start to experience something other than .22 recoil. Happy to give my money to local guys (or for anything made in the US, for that...
