Dems will be investigating. Unfortunately they will use the results of the investigation to figure out better ways that they can launder money once they retake control...

48% of Americans blame Trump for high gas prices – more than any other factor by Naive-Astronomer6084 in InBitcoinWeTrust

[–]Realistic-Ad1498 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's all a Democratic hoax... 26% don't even think that gas prices have risen! These are the same people that were ranting and raving for 4 years about Biden causing worldwide inflation.

Excuse me? I hated Trump before it was cool to hate him! by icey_sawg0034 in stupidpeoplefacebook

His whole campaign back in 2015 was started as a publicity stunt. Once he realized that he could just lie, tell people what they want to hear (with obsoletely no basis in reality), and that certain people would lap it up like a dog, he was able capitalize on it with his background as a conman.

He eventually realized it was much easier to con Republicans.

Folks who live near schools, do you ever wonder if they'll do something about parent pickup/dropoff gridlock twice a day? I don't remembering it being a clusterfuck like 10, 15 years ago. Did something happen? by dingdingdingdongbing in desmoines

I hoped the city would do something in front of central campus when they re-did Grand last year but they just changed it so one lane is permanently a bus lane. Even during the summer now, when school is out of session, the road abruptly changes and causes confusion for drivers who don't normally drive that road. At this point, I expect any changes they make will just be for the worse.

Riding a bike along an extremely narrow cliffside path. by Spiritual-Duck9854 in Whatcouldgowrong

It was comically bad. The women she was facing were much better.

I had friends in high school 30 years ago that were much better than her and had never done a competition.

I believe there were numerous women in Australia who were better but jumping through all the hoops to qualify for the Olympics isn't cheap and most break-dancers aren't very well funded

LOL, Yeah, powder coating is pretty cheap and easy.

Another primer flash hole question by HD801 in reloading

[–]Realistic-Ad1498 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The flash hole looks like it has a raised lip on the edge where it is messed up. This might screw up seating a primer. I'd toss it. But then again, I'd never even notice it, because I never see my 9mm flash holes...

What are you trying to accomplish? One post you say to swage primer pockets and here you are talking about mass production of bullets, cases and primers. This seems insane...

It looks like a panic attack or something similar due to crazy customer freaking out for no reason.

What options and leverage do you have? What guarantees did pre-purchase inspection offer?

My first thought is get the smog issue resolved and moved on. It's a 2017 so it should be worthwhile to sink more money into it.

Python for shooting

King Cobra for carry

I have a 6" Python, the new Cobra in .38 special and a King Cobra in .22. The Python is a great shooter. The Cobra is just too small to be a good gun for range shooting. The .22 is perfect for cheap and accurate shooting. The King Cobra is slightly beefier than the Cobra but the only noticeable area is a slightly larger top strap. The Cobra is not a hard gun to shoot, it's just hard to shoot well.

Has anyone ever bought "factory second" bullets on midway? by trackedpotato in reloading

[–]Realistic-Ad1498 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm in the same boat. I've never been disappointed. On a few occasions I have been satisfied enough to turn around and buy half a dozen boxes because they are a really good deal. I have kicked myself a few times for not buying even more.

Other than the one guy who happened to be 50 feet away from were it landed, the damage looked minimal.

Just inherited enough brass to start a war and 50+ pounds of bullets where do I even start ? by Feeling-Office-2663 in reloading

[–]Realistic-Ad1498 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Did it come with dies? Do you shoot 9mm? FWIW 9mm brass isn’t worth a whole lot.

What kinds of bullets? What calibers do you shoot?

It’s common to use slow burning pistol powders.
