    Tech giant brings software to a gun fight

    Freedom of association and commerce is. If I reserve the right to refuse service, then I can exercise my constitutional right to tell someone to take a hike from my establishment. The government should not have to tell me to provide services to someone I don't want to, full stop.

    Homeowner Arrested After Shooting Burglars With Illegal Gun

    It might have been on point but it wasn't at issue so it's not part of Heller's holding. If you read it carefully that's clear. It seems likely that some level of firearm licensing is likely to be approved by the current supreme court but that case hasn't quite happened, yet. Heller itself...

    Homeowner Arrested After Shooting Burglars With Illegal Gun

    After he's arraigned on the felony it'll be sent to Utica and stay there unless it's moved to another county or dropped. Town courts have no jurisdiction for felonies beyond arraignment. I don't see SCOTUS as ripe to help him out here, and he's been through enough. One would hope that the DA...

    Tech giant brings software to a gun fight

    Yeah, no kidding. You'll notice that Salesforce says this affects new and a "small number" of existing customers, probably a very small number whose maintenance has expired or is expiring. If they cause active customers to incur large out-migration costs they can expect lawsuits or arbitration...

    Man who stole 14 guns from Bergen business sentenced to state prison

    As far as I'm concerned, I want the guy that breaks into my garage to get a stiffer sentence than someone who breaks into a business after hours. That's burglary of my home where I live. Maybe not quite into the living area, but close enough. Invading my castle where I live and sleep is a...

    3D-printed guns are back, and this time they are unstoppable

    That may be true, but the point is that right now there are better options to mill, mold, bend etc. receivers from scratch than to 3D print them. The best actual 3D-printable AR15 lower looks like the FOSSCAD Bolt, which is pretty hokey, doesn't accommodate a bolt catch, and at least some...

    3D-printed guns are back, and this time they are unstoppable

    That's cool, but you and me aren't buying that any time soon. What's available to consumers for CNC milling is far more useful for making guns than 3D printing.

    Man who stole 14 guns from Bergen business sentenced to state prison

    I think five years is a plenty fair sentence where his only prior was pot in college, they recovered all the guns in his possession, and he stole them from the shop when no one was there. Five years is not a short sentence for a property crime. The stupid law about magazines being outrageous...

    Composting of human bodies now legal in Washington state

    That's not a traditional burial, that's what the funeral industry sells us as a traditional burial. Traditional burial is a pine box in the dirt. You think they had concrete vaults and steel caskets in pioneer cemeteries?

    Looks like no 3D printed guns in nys.

    I'm getting tired of seeing pictures of the shitty "Liberator." That plastic toy won't liberate anything. It's a crappy zip gun that melts itself a bit on every use. You can build a far better zip gun with parts and tools off the shelf of any hardware store. We'll need better printers and...

    Composting of human bodies now legal in Washington state

    High-temperature composting kills the bad stuff. They already distribute composted sewage sludge, and you're not advised to put it on your veggies, but it shouldn't have any disease. After all, in nature everything dies and eventually turns into soil. I'm sure they'll tell people not to put...

    3D-printed guns are back, and this time they are unstoppable

    That's all nice, but 3D printed guns are still very much a "when all you have is a hammer" concept now. But if this leads to more interest in amateur gunsmithing one way or another, so much the better. And 3D printing only gets better with time.

    Composting of human bodies now legal in Washington state

    You can already do this with a traditional burial. Lots of old family cemeteries in the country, or the new "green/natural" burial cemeteries, and I like that notion. I don't see the advantage of being processed in a compost heap in a warehouse; way too soylent for me. But if they want to sell...

You probably won't notice a difference so if cost is the factor go with cheaper. 223 Wylde tends to be higher end but if there's no difference then 223 Wylde is the "match" grade choice for increased accuracy firing 223.
