I cannot fathom the dissonance required to not see that an executive order to take weapons from citizens is horrendously fascist.

Hey those new import PSLs are 2k plus now!
Also I was on the phone with Henry Chan of 9 Hole Reviews the other day and he said the PSL outshot the dragunov on their 1000 meter range!
Say what you will, but the PSL is a badass gun.

I spent too much on a comically inaccurate rifle.
It came with the modern polymer furniture on it but retro is always cooler.

Oedipus Wreckx-n-Effect reacted to Walter_Sobchak in Israeli AFVs
That's pretty much my understanding of the situation. Teledyne was working with Renk by the late 1970's to get a Renk transmission into their "Super M60". So I'm not sure if Teledyne pitched the Renk transmission to the Israelis, or if the Israelis picked the Renk transmission independently.

Oedipus Wreckx-n-Effect reacted to Roths in United States Gun Control Megathread
This sort of stuff really gets me excited. Now that barrels are almost hashed out thanks to the wonders of ECM milling technology, it becomes significantly harder to limit the global proliferation of firearms by people DIYing them on their own. Basically, this guy along with another guy I know called Jeff have been successful not only in rifling a steel barrel, but also drilling it completely. The ECM process doesn't care about hardness or whatever, only conductivity as far as milling goes so even 4150 steel is no problemo.
Sure there's still limitations regarding making nitrocellulose propellant, but Jeff has some cool ideas on making a "boom loom" that takes cotton string through an automated process that nitrates it and then washes it, along with other neat things like nichrome electrical primers. I think the future looks pretty bright, don't really need to depend on an incompetent NRA or some men in black dresses if technology marches forward enough.

I'm sadly related to some.
That I've owned firearms since I was old enough to legally do so, and have yet to shoot up a school (or ballpark full of congressmen) has yet to make a dent in the adamantine armor of ignorance they have deployed.
One who is an avid deer hunter was horrified when he saw me showing a cousin my rather nice BYF42 P-38, proclaiming "Who knows how many that has killed!?". (Zero, as I bought it unfired). My reply was "In my hands? None, so far." and slid it back into it's holster.
This guy is such a fudd he thought my 870 with extended mag tube was "a weapon of war", and had never seen nor handled an AR-15 of any kind til I had my absurd R6700CH MT out. (Great gun if you want a 14 pound AR that will cut ragged holes at 600 yards, and costs $300~$500 more than any comparable AR because of the fucking horse).
Many are still horrified that I "worked in the war-profiteering industry" (As did their parents, my grandparents).

>Let's not count all conflicts involving Muslims attacking people as "Jihads".

The takeaway I get from both the video and your rebuttal is that Christians didn't wake up one morning and decide to go on Crusades for no reason.
