Who would have thought criminals would think twice knowing the left has driven people who never owned a firearm in their life to arm themselves after their defund the police bullshit and allowing criminals to keep walking the streets.

I wonder how many people can connect the dots between legalizing drugs and this.

Forget drugs, this is what social media is for.

Add phones in general. I walked through the cafeteria at work yesterday, over 50 people and every one of them on their phone. Even sitting at the same table, and not speaking with each other. They have the phones up on stands while they eat so they can watch something because how awful would it be to speak with an actual person or go that time without checking face book or X or whatever?

The fact people no longer interact deepens the divide because literally no one talks to people anymore.

The Zombie Apocalypse isn't about the indead, its the Cell phone.

Watching something on the local news about the eclipse and they were discussing back in the 1860's when scientists were using spectroscopes to discover the make up of the sun. That was back in 1860, today's kids can't add.

That's progress.

The smarter tech gets, the dumber most people allow themselves to become. Story after story about how dangerous AI is becoming, but no one willing to stop it because it makes their life easier.

Easy has been the bane of mankind since the first apple was picked. What most people don't understand is that someone invented the newest labor saving device everyone craves and sold it to the ones seeking a life of ease and leisure.

And made a huge profit on it only to discover they've become one of the hated "rich."

 

[lovecraft68]

one of the hated "rich."

On this topic...ever notice how the libs hate anyone who's rich and don't seem to think those people worked to get to where they are and deserve it? That somehow they deserve what that person has, and for doing nothing? But...isn't it funny how these same people will squeal that a person playing football is being underpaid at 20 million a year? And that mega millionaire athletes-and their precious celebs- aren't evil?

Priorities....its a dead word.

Hey, at least jelly is good on toast, what they have is intellectual cancer.

30 some degrees out there and the wind is howling.

Got the fellows rifle done, wasn't too bad a shape. The pistol not so much, it's going to take a little more work.

After my heart attack I was prescribed several medications that " I had to take for life". One of which went from 5 bucks a month to 500 a month. my mom warned me about that guy!

I also noticed that on my way in to the ER I didn't have my ins card or my wallet. Automatically shuffled off with the dregs. Once my bonifides were known it was to the top of the list, private room

Diabetes has become a cash cow.

Sheeple. It's going to be very sad watching these Sheeple face the bitter reality that is coming.

I watched a video this morning, Trophy wife Karen telling a cop that "She couldn't possibly go to jail, he didn't understand where she went to school"

Fuckwits: If you can't skin griz, you are going to die.

Einstein was right. WW4 will be fought with sticks and stones

Some of us will have hoarded some guns-n-ammo . . . if we don't have to whore them first.


Scored the old car bits. Soon as we get settled Out West, we can get after getting 3-4 of those things built.

The landlady wants an old Power Wagon. I have 6 big block Mopar wedges, one of which would be dedicated to a project like that.

Got the revolver done so that's out of the way. I guess I should call the fellow and let him know. 200 shells are in the tumbler getting all cleaned up, they'll be ready tomorrow. Found out I have a small out door plumbing job to do, nothing some PVC cement won't fix.

Searching for a bolt handle for the Mauser build. Damned near everyone is making "tactical" bolt handles and that just isn't going to cut it, this is an old school build. I'm getting a little tired of the "tactical" moniker being attached to damn near everything. Flashlights, pants, socks, Q-Tips, what's next, "Tactical Hemorrhoid Relief Cream?" It's wearing thin as a marketing tool.

It's still cold and blowing like hell outside and I'm running out of useful things to do inside.

Should I edit the thread title to "Wat's Tactical Guns-N-Stuff"? If so, I should spell "tactical" phonetically.

Like losers are choosers. It didn't even look like Shebby Boi put it in gear.

Why not? Hell, we can do the "Tactical Political Blurt Thread" too.

Which is where this one is on its way.


Lemme think on it.


We could take a poll among Sentient Life.


Because fuck the unsentient, that's why.

Meanwhile, I just finished installing my new TACTICAL red/green "dot" scope on this-here AR. It's on there tight as dick's hatband. Now it just needs a TACTICAL sighting in.


And I put some stripper ($1 included) on the second M14 stock. That walnut and/or finish is darker than the first one. Which got its first good coarse sanding. It might have gone better if I had TACTICAL sandpaper.

Or more TACTICAL elbow grease.

I recently purchased a torque driver off of Amazon, non-TACTICAL, and it's worth its weight in gold. Reasonably priced as well. Over torquing or under torquing screws on sights, scopes, and actions can have unfortunate consequences. That tool, along with Loc-Tite blue (applied judiciously), should be in every gunsmiths tool kit.

As a point of information, scope rings should be tightened to 15-18 in lbs and scope mounts to 35 in lbs.
