It's like waiting on the Class III stamp to arrive while your gear sits in vault jail.
I got called the other day and was told my Silencerco Big Bore Harvester paperwork came in. It had been so long I practically forgot I bought one. They also reminded me I had a couple SBR lowers and Osprey suppressor coming up soon. It's like Christmas!!!! |

I bought a Garand a few years ago. It was beautiful, and cool, and historic, but it was also a twitchy pain in the ass, required special ammo, and I was always afraid I was going to mash my thumb while loading a clip, since I never shot it enough to get comfortable with it. I kept it for about a year and then sold it - at least I got back the $1,300 I paid for it.
Got an M1A from Palmetto for about the same price, which basically has all the cool features of the Garand without the headaches. Could I have gotten a more functional AR 10 for less money? Sure. But I wanted old school coolness. And it is a joy to shoot. |

They're trying to push through a law in the state legislature that would lift the ban, but the democraps keep stalling it. I don't know if it will ever go through. But then, I never thought we'd get will-issue concealed carry here, either, so I won't give up hope.

Spent $200 more to throw on an authentic military stock. It came with new wood and I didn't care for it. I am in love with the gun. |

I want to buy multiple suppressors, but don't want to pay a $200 tax on each and wait for several months while the ATF processes the paperwork.
I hope the Hearing Protection Act makes it though Congress and gets signed by President Trump. No more waiting, and no more $200 tax! https://www.congress.gov/bill/115th-...house-bill/367 |

If you ever purchase a suppressor, I strongly suggest Silencerco.
I had an "incident" which entailed a 7.62 Specwar flying off the end of my Steyer SSG04 from a bullet strike. I don't know if it was my fault, it probably was, but Silencerco fixed it/sent a brand new one with the same serial # no questions asked. Free. Lifetime warranty. They earned a customer for life through their service, not to mention their gear has top measurements in suppression in all classes. |
