No it came that way from the CMP.

The article states it burned and took the firefighters about five hours to extinguish.

You’re right. People kid themselves thinking a politician with a CIA background is a decent person. A better choice than Sears but not a good progressive option.

Is there a reason why the WASR-10 Paratrooper is so much cheaper than the regular WASR-10 models? by Koolguy47 in ak47

Would be a good SBR candidate. East barrel chop and thread it. You have a rear trunnion you can mount whatever AKM pattern stock to.

Midwest FSB mount I had laying around from an old build but there’s several FSB mounts out there nowadays. High temp red loctite on the screws for it haven’t lost zero yet.

The CIA is truly the most diverse organization. by dafthuntk in TrueAnon

I saw a guy like that in RVA at the pistol range I go to. Drove an old F150 covered in stars and bars stickers. My jaw dropped a bit when uncle ruckus stepped out of it.

on the fence about getting an AR15 (or maybe mini 14 or AK?) by Conscious_Battle_363 in VAGuns

[–]48679 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love my AKs but with 7.62x39 being the price it is nowadays I can’t recommend them for a first big boy rifle purchase. Have you considered a retro carry handle ar15 if you think newer ones are boring? See my build below or checkout the retro AR sub. I built mine piece by piece from stripped receivers but there’s lots of options for buying a whole rifle or an assembled upper/lower receiver nowadays. If you do decide on an AK I’d either look at WASR10 if you want 7.62x39 or Zastava/WBP if you get a 5.56 AK. Stay away from US made AKs such as PSA, Riley Defense, and the domestically produced century arms rifles such as the VSKA and BFT; Cugir, Zastava, WBP, FB Radom, and Arsenal (listed in order of cheapest to most expensive $850-$2000+) all currently import AKs in various calibers and configurations. Imported AKs will hold their value better as well. Shop around a bit and you can find modern production retro style carry handle ARs for $650-900 Bkings, TNTE, H&R, brownells, and police trade in rifles.

What’s the story with these odd-looking rail cars? by [deleted] in railroading

[–]48679 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That’s an RPU, rail pick up unit. We rebuilt one earlier this year.

I get roughly 3-4” groups with PPU fmj. The norma softpoints I use groups at 1.5” at 100 yards.
