I would use rubber or leather to protect the metal. I don't want my new rifle to look like garbage on day 1.

Is X the app that was Twitter? Do you just download it on your phone?

I almost traded that today, but it was a bit bouncy for me, and I wasn't aware of the catalyst. I need to start following politicians more. What website do you use?

What did you use to tighten it? I was thinking about using channel locks. I don't have an armorer's wrench.

Why do you think SPOT will go up so much? I actually just cancelled my subscription.

There wasn't any drama about the bridge until Trump started making drama. Canada paid for it all and is taking responsibility for it all. It was supposed to be good for both countries as a link between two industrial centers that are dependent on each other. Putting tariffs on automotive and...

I didn't trade anything yesterday, and I probably won't trade today. Market is total dogspit right now.

What do you recommend? Loc-tite? I don't want it to rattle loose and let the spring under the end plate shoot out again. I had a really tough time getting that thing in there, and I'm worried about it. I plan to hang the rifle on a sling by the end plate and do mag dumps. If it rattles...

Done. It wasn't easy. I still have to torque and stake the catle nut, but I will do that after I tune the buffer. But it's ready for the range.

Oh yes. I'll check the price when I'm down there again. It will probably bum you out. As an aside, I bought a bunch of Norma 7.62x39, and I'm going to save the brass in case I end up reloading.

I made it down to Monroe after work today. Got the lowers for $45 each. This is my first build, so I hope it goes well. I found about 3000 rounds of 7.62x39 ammo in my dad's stash. Much cheaper mag dumps than the 5.56, and possible hunting rifle when I get a suppressor. The upper, BCG, and...

Same. Sturgis gets a few things right, but he's probably wrong as often as he's right. And I can't stand his smug attitude in his videos. I quit watching him years ago. I think his whole approach has contradictory elements, and the idea of separate areas for does and bucks is only really...

A thermal drone would be awesome right now. It's overcast, and there is thick snow on the ground. I went out yesterday and walked about 2 miles in the snow. It was exhausting, and I found very little deer sign. I wanted to go across the river, but I fell through the ice once when I was...

Exactly this.
