:ROFLMAO: There is a context to your statement, and outside of that context, its just dead wrong.... And this is forum with people of varying degrees of experience and knowledge, you know, where context could be lost... I apologize to the rest of the forum members for being so offensive as to...

I always saw it as a weapon systems restraint. Sorta a planning, command & control type restraint. Infantry equipped with mostly M16, must close to within 800 yards to engage the enemy.... ...outside of that, they are just wasting ammo...

I tried, probably more accurately misused, Wilson Combat Oil, Universal and Grease.... ....some of those are not even intended for pistols.... ....I'm moving back toward the Lucas Gun Oil... Still using WC Oil on the pistol barrels and barrel bushings... :unsure: hmmm, in most cases...

We need a thread on Maximum Point Blank Range (MPBR)....

Funny you mention that.... ....my 80% frame project 1911, the rail is really tight, which may sound impressive until you have the slide dragging and short stroking with any dirt getting in the oil, extreme cold, etc.... I tried to run the rails dry in hopes of breaking in the rails to wear a...

I have never encountered any problem I could attribute to lubricant whether using grease or oil to lubricate both pistols or rifles. The grease I use is the modern light greases, like TW-25 or Lucas Gun Grease, not the axle grease used on some parts of the M-1 Garand. In fact, my Ruger 22/45...

Missing the BFG2000 from Duke Nukem...

I only shoot on the range, I have a tough time claiming I shoot better with any of the RDS that cost twice as much or more than the Vortex.... The RMR2 looks like it could be run over by a truck, none of them look delicate and would stand up to most usage easily... The Vortex has a much...

You can have the slide milled to fit an optic, the link is the service that I used to have my XD-M .45 ACP slide milled. Its exactly like the Factory Optics Cut. https://powderriverprecision.com/xd-xdm-slide-milling/ The best value RDS I have is the Vortex Venom, I have found it on sale for as...

I stopped running the news or radio talk shows in the background constantly as I do other things, because of my blood pressure. Now I have Discovery ID running constantly in the background for things, all the True Crime shows..... As South Park describes it, "Spousal Murder Porn".....

Adrenaline, it reduces the amount of pain you feel..... Even as young man, I can remember tackling drills for warm ups, before you got the heart pumping and Adrenaline flowing, and boy it hurt to get tackled.... ....into the game when the Adrenaline was flowing, you didn't even feel it... As...

The History Channel is now the Ancient Aliens and Conspiracy Theories channel. The Travel Channel is now the Ghost, Haunted Places and Paranormal Activity Channel. Lifetime is a the disgruntled, man hating woman's channel. Hallmark is the well adjust, loving woman's channel, its the same schlock...

includes the presssures for +P, I don't think SAAMI has specs for +P. I was past the edit option when I realized my comment was confusing.... Keep in mind, firearms are designed with a safety margin, to withstand a certain percentage over the max stress they are rated for..... ....the safety...

I had sent out an XD-M none OSP slide to Powder River Precision to be cut for optics. They make a cut that appears almost identical to the cut on the OSP slides. They also provided the cover plate, an adapter plate of my choosing and the screws. I found the Powder River Plate wouldn't fit my...

When I was concerned with the screw length, I have installed the Optic on the adapter plate with the plate off the pistol and inspected where the screws bottom out. Its possible a pistol might have openings to allow for screws to extend past the adapter place, so check for that, but in most...

That was what I was getting at in my comments, it was an industry wide standards effort to assure you got what you intended and it would operate safely. If you wanted to run +P, you could do it safely because of SAAMI, you just have to check the literature or with the manufacturer if the design...

I used to wear a Parka in early years of High School in the early 80's, I could only find it at the Army-Navy Surplus Store. Years later it became more stylish and was being made and sold in more fashionable ways than the military cold weather gear jacket, but still had the styling cues of the...

So I was on gun.deals and on a whim I typed in "Yeet Cannon" in the search box, expecting nothing. Yikes, I got two returns, both $149.29.... https://gun.deals/search/apachesolr_search/752334091826 https://gun.deals/search/apachesolr_search/752334900487 Years ago it was the cheap .38 special...

I hear people try to claim that the invention of the Transistor and integrated circuits (IC) must have been reversed engineered technology from the Alien Crash in Roswell, NM. Because human being could never invent something so complex. Huh? It just proves they have no idea what a Transistor and...

Most of 5.11 clothing isn't tactical, they have their own style with tactical marketing. I don't wear 5.11 clothing because they have limited availability on larger sizes. But I find it more of a joke when people wear actual BDU or Military Uniform items as casual clothing than casual clothing...
