Quote of the Day – Hunting, you’re doing it wrong Edition

January 27, 2009

John still loves to tell the world that if deer were attracted to loud sighs, swinging feet from the deer stand, and constant complaining about the cold… I would have a herd of heads on the wall. – Tracy

The ATF Form 1 and Form 4 for manufacture or transfer of an NFA weapon have a section for why you need the firearm. 

In the comments, what would you put (or have you put) as a reason to need to own an NFA weapon? Funny, serious, and combination are welcome.


AR Builder

Sebastian shows a build he worked up.

Here is one of mine

And add $200 for the tax stamp because the barrel (11.5 inches) is below the length blessed by the .gov (16 inches).

Similar to an idea I have been kicking around for a while. The CAR stock is smaller than an M4, which would be good for this type of build, but maybe too much of a good thing. Other changes from the picture: a dual or quad rail gas block, with a pistol light/laser combo mounted underneath, and maybe some sort of BUIS (you know, in case the laser AND the EO Tech decided to head south at the same time).

Try it yourself here.


Quote of the Day – Your Money Edition

January 26, 2009

In response to “stop the government from spending my moneyMarko has this to say:

Good luck with that quest.  They’re not spending your money, they’re spending your children’s and grandchildren’s money.  Your money was already spent decades ago, probably around the time LBJ or Nixon were in office.  See, the government can borrow cash just by promising that someone else’s kids are going to pay it back out of their paychecks, which doesn’t exactly encourage fiscal responsibility.

Sad but all too true.

Jay had a good day.


Funny, I’ve thought of doing that, too

Robb says:

I have no problem with moving, it’s just that I can’t move to any state that won’t respect my Second Amendment rights. California, Massachusetts, New York, etc are off the list. In fact, I would probably use the Brady’s grading system to help decide.

Exactly, the more the Bradys, hate a state, the more likely I am to like it.


Quote of the Day – Race and Tolerance Edition

January 24, 2009

For instance, you will not soon see a German chancellor of Turkish descent. Nor will a child of North African immigrants soon take the reins of power in France. It will be a long time before a Pakistani or Indian last name appears on the mailbox at 10 Downing St. And yet these countries bubble over with haughty finger-waggers eager to lecture backward and provincial America about race and tolerance. Why not enjoy rubbing Barack Obama in their faces?  - Jonah Goldberg


Quote of the Day – (Not So) Beautiful People Edition

January 23, 2009

“America, I know you want to hang out with the beautiful people, but Ashton and Demi made their pledge, dusted off their hands and went on to other acting projects leaving you with the tab. Bruce sings a wonderful song about how tough the blue collar life is, but he doesn’t actually have to live it. And guess what? Bill and Hillary are only faking it when they say they feel your pain. America, you’re a little overweight, your hairline is receding, and and you sag a little bit – the pretty people want your stuff and your adoration, but please, use the servants entrance when you deliver it.” – Mike-istan


Quote of the Day – Change Edition

January 22, 2009

That’s the kind of change they like on the Hill – the kind that rattles in their pockets! – Bitter


A good point

January 22, 2009

From JJ in the comments:

why is it you can not find which party the offender belongs to when a democrat is involved

It’s funny, because a couple months back I saw a story about the trouble that the son of some politician or another, and I automatically assumed (correctly) that since the party wasn’t mentioned in the beginning of the story that the guy was a Democrat. What’s worse is that this was on the allegedly Republican shill Fox News. Although maybe they are Republican shills, because somewhere in the story it did mention the party.
