Re: ATF to Institute Rulemaking Regarding Stabilizing Braces and Require Registration of Currently Owned Braces

The NFA Division barely runs now with the Silencer (their term), SBR, SBS, AOW, Machine Gun, Form 5, Form 3, Form 2, Form 1 load they currently have. Delays of anywhere from 4 to 12 months. The only crime stat that will be altered will be an increase in formerly law abiding citizens getting jammed u...

Re: ATF to Institute Rulemaking Regarding Stabilizing Braces and Require Registration of Currently Owned Braces

ATF's proposed rule is a solution to a problem that we do not have. We do not have a problem with 'pistol braced firearms' committing crimes. We have a problem with criminals committing crimes who are emboldened by a justice system that will not bother to prosecute them. The NFA is a waste of govern...

Re: Any tips on keeping EDC Red Dots clean(er)

There are some anti static cloths you can try. I try to clean the lens weekly or after any range trip. Treat it like a pair of glasses. Soft cloth only. Avoid paper towels. Maybe It's a non-issue. I just figured someone here has a RDS on their EDC and carry in dirty environments. I try to clean min...

Re: Pistol Caliber Carbine Roundup

Ordered this for my birthday back in the spring. Finally shipped out this week and I got to start configuring it for maximum fun. Sig Sauer MPX, 4.5" barrel, in Biden/Harris approved configuration :headscratch

Re: Losers stole my catalytic converter

Quality cameras really make all the difference in the world. When I see low rez security footage, especially these days, it's irritating. Yes, it's an expense but a necessary one.

Re: Losers stole my catalytic converter

Maybe I'm missing something, but why would someone want to steal part of the exhaust system? Is there a huge black market for catalytic converters? What do people do with stolen catalytic converters? Get a quote to replace the cats on your vehicles and you'll quickly see why people steal them. Had ...

Re: Early Voting

Checked the Harris County web site, said there were 0 in line at the closest polling station. Hauled keister over there and was out the door back to my vehicle in 10 mins. Had time to stop and grab some donuts before coming into the shop early. Win-win all around. :patriot: https://www.harrisvotes.com

Re: Stolen American flag

Interlocking layers of motion activated claymore mines? Cut down on thieves and squirrels.

The 'anti theft' or 'anti sieze' grease on the poll is great until the flag hits the pole and/or your need to take it down to replace the flag.
