Re: Went to the "Gun Show"
Nobody shops at gun shows because they want to save money... unless they're not very bright. ...Or unless you're local gun shop is run by a super dude. So super, in fact, he moves enough product to keep his prices pretty friggin' low. As in, <5% over an individual purchase. And then you've got the ...

Re: AR-15 mag roundup?
I only have experience with PMags, having gotten them with the rifle, and buying into the interweb hype. I don't have any puches, so they still work fine for me.

Re: School me on the browinging hi power and clones
No offense intended, I assure everyone, but there are so many HP admirers in the thread I can't resist asking--given how fondly you all consider the Browning HP, why do you think it is that it's never found even a tiny fraction of the commercial or competitive success of the Browning 1911? I mean, ...

Re: Anybody seriously considering a bug out boat?
Getting anywhere in my AO by boat would be incredibly hard in most bug-out type situations. Mostly because of dams. Lots and lots of dams, all the way to the Gulf. While there ARE locks, I doubt anyone would be manning them in a grid down/pandemic/riot/crash/whatever scenario. So, a BOL or transfer ...

Re: The Thirty-Dollar Bug Out Trailer
Thank you Towanda!
I wonder if there's any legal restrictions regarding bike-towed carts in the area I'll be heading in the fall.
Having to crank my car only for trips home would be GREAT!

I'd like to get an AR myself someday, but I am having trouble deciding between a 16" middy with OD retro furniture and a PK-AS, or an M16-A1 style ...

Re: Sellier & Bellot .308
It's the primers that are corrosive, from my understanding.
I did some research for you. General consensus: everywhere hot gas from the round gets, scrub thoroughly with hot water/windex and then clean as usual.
Disclaimer: I'd still wait for one of the others, or try some google-fu of your own.

Fair warning, there will be a great assortment of opinions regarding corrosively primed ammo. There are those that say you need to detail strip the whole gun, and there are those that say rub dirt in it. Builds character :lol: HOWEVER, I would be leery of corrosive ammo in an AR.

Not to be disrespectful, but I question the utility of such carts in certain AO's.
Although, I would love to have to not decide what I'll bugout with, just load it all up

Re: Energy drinks
So, being the cheapskate that I am, I bought some SLAP Energy at Wally World the other day.
Taste-wise, it's a lot like Grape RipIt.
30 calories in the Tallboy can, and only 5 grams of sugar.
No weird, semi-trippy side-effects like Sugar Free AMP.
Plus, $10 for a pack of twelve
