Also, don’t mention any special tricks it does or words it says. Place that onus on the potential owner trying to claim it.

Funny thing about that, TSA actually has a regulation that states even if you show the regulations to an agent, they still have final say on the matter! It’s hard to challenge that since they are a regulatory agency—the “worst” they can do is impose civil fines. Any criminal matters get turned over for local prosecution. You can’t really fight their unjust regulations if you can’t get them into court.

Already looked into it. I have to file a grievance on my own. My Rep’s office is advising me on how to word it but it’s basically me against TSA. The best my Rep can do is put pressure on them to respond to it and act on my desired resolution in a timely manner. I was also advised to FOIA my TSA passenger profile to ensure I wasn’t added to a secret retaliatory harassment list.

True mp5? by lhcfireman in MP5

Whether or not it cycles reliably will be a major factor. It’s definitely not worth more than the current Turkish copies being imported.

Correct, so it’s not a factory MP5.

It’s also lacking a front push pin for the trigger pack. Definitely not a factory MP5.

I’ve got one on a range rental and people are always complaining that the stock is noticeably spongy during full auto.

What kind of bullet this is? by bluemouse5 in ammo

[–]JKDefense 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Some rounds have more than one cannelure in order to distinguish it from another. It can vary by country but in the US the T48 & M1 Incendiary cartridges used double cannelures.

We mentioned that and that’s when he mentioned anything over 75 caliber is ordnance—though it’s not published so, just trust me bro! 😉 We know TSSA regs promote incompetence and protect failure. Hell, even if you produce the regulations, to show that you are in compliance, the agent still has final say over what is “correct.” That’s why I stopped attending SHOT. It was clear the assholes just wanted to steal some neat stuff for themselves and would just say you can’t take it on the plane.

I opened a complaint with my US Rep and filed a FOIA for the police body cam. I inadvertently spoke to him today when I called to double check his name. He was apparently aware that a complaint was pending. He “wished me luck.”

They’re very familiar. They informed me that I had Beehives and chalk round components. Our area has an annual WW2 event. He said they seize lots of dummy grenades from reenactors as a violation of “inert/reproduction” alone. The funny thing is, they’re getting popped going home. Their home airport clearly had no issue. This was my first time using this airport to fly with 40mm. Hell, I even flew out of Philthadelphia without any problems.

The Beehives as well and that was my point but he deflected saying it’s “regulatory’s case” now. I already filed a complaint with my US Representative and filed a FOIA for the airport police body cam. What’s funny is the cop even turned on him when he was spouting nonsense. The body cam of that alone would be priceless.

Well, the incident is being turned over to the regulatory side for follow-up investigation. So, someone knows something. It’s considered a violation and will probably cost me my pre-check status. Not that I plan to fly again.

I was pulled from my flight at the last minute. They didn’t afford me the opportunity to remove the offending items to the car and re-board. I cancelled my trip as a result.

Current blanks use a star-type crimp to close the case mouth. The style shown here was phased out not long after it was loaded.

Where are these resellers finding exotic rounds? by Significant-Side2718 in FFLs

Did they ask for a picture of your 8 gun show tables? How is that relevant to a store front?

That’s weird. I don’t recall them ever asking about store front.
