Re: WTH is up with nfa branch?

Been a month since I filed my Form1 and still nothing. Decided to fill out another one. Site was slow and I was having to wait while trying to enter the specs, so I decided I'd better add in a picture for clarity. You know, just in case. I was reminded of what I said I'd do on here, so I did just t...

Agreed.

At this point I'd take anything that looks like positive action for the citizens footing the bill.

Re: Disappointed in new can

I tend to believe the muzzle blast instantaneously (< 20ms) increasing the pressure in an entire room would defy the laws of physics unless the room was very small. A jackhammer in a parking lot is quieter to the ear than a jackhammer in a garage even though there is no muzzle blast to fill the room...

... In a small enough space, it will be louder. Over a table or under an awning, it will be louder. Propper sound meters (2209, pulse) don't lie. Sound only travels directly away from the source until it reaches some impediment to it's journey. If the space is small enough that the reverberation or...

All I have is the American Eagle 124 subsonic and some Speer Lawman 147 subs. AE is s--t, Lawman is OK stuff. Stick to the Speer ammo if you're not gonna handload or buy boutique stuff like the hush. Shooting inside an enclosed room will make any suppressor "sound" louder. The reason is t...

Re: Senate Firmly Red ... Mitch, Please Pass HPA!

Re: Senate Firmly Red ... Mitch, Please Pass HPA!

I hold on to little hope for the passage of HPA but I still have hope.

The GOP sees the inevitable wave of estrogen creeping over the nation and they will be doing everything they can to hold on to the seats they have.
