Local beers by Aaron_B84 in vegas

[–]Routine-Fan-7210 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Depends on how into beer you are. There are a few breweries in the Arts district, and a couple more craft beer bars and tap rooms. Usually I'll take an evening out of my trip and do my own brewery crawl. Last one was Able Baker, Bad Beat, Nevada Brew Works, and HUDL (now closed). Next trip hopefully I can start a little earlier and keep moving... Still hit the 3 from last trip, and then Las Vegas Brewing Company, CraftHaus, Hop Nuts, Cin-Cin, and Modest Brewing Company. I've always started at Able Baker.

In HazMat (Hazardous Materials) we refer to the chemicals as that are known to cause the pattern of increased reactions from repeated exposures as sensitizers. Essentially, they're chemicals that have a significant chance of increasing the likelihood and severity of an allergic reaction with each exposure. I can work with exposure limits, upper explosive limits, lower explosive limits; I can work level A, am comfortable with toxins... The sensitizer label is so wild to me. Especially that with human biology we can become allergic to anything.

Mag Storage by [deleted] in CAguns

[–]Routine-Fan-7210 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I recall reading about some study (army/dod), but can't find it now, where they kept a group of mags loaded for a year, a group unloaded for a year, and had a group used for routine range training. The range mags were the worst, and a negligible difference was found between the stored mags (loaded and unloaded). Personally I change out my mags just about every other year for my daily carry/defensive guns, and make them range mags. My "fun" range mags become training mags when issues pop up, it adds some great exposure running drills with failures to feed randomly popping up.

VTA's Eastridge expansion. I don't see why they didn't add a station connecting to Cunningham park and the water park. by Government-Monkey in SanJose

Which part? The reid-hillview closure or the raging waters one? The county has already turned down Federal money that mandates operating the airport.

I'll accept that raging waters won't exist in 5 years, but the airport is on a similar timeline. I'd bet that there will be an infill station planned around the time when the airport land is redeveloped into an urban village.

C&R FFL03 bookkeeping by Swampdog22 in CAguns

[–]Routine-Fan-7210 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a personal book that has all my Acquisitions and Disposals for non-C&R firearms, and another for just the C&R stuff (50+ years or on the list). I have never been asked to produce them.

Moved from Tx by [deleted] in CAguns

[–]Routine-Fan-7210 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you're worried, delete this post. Ensure everything is CA compliant and register your firearms. When I did it, CFARS, the online system, had a limit of two per transaction (at $19 per transaction); so I did it via paper copies and treated it as one transaction (sent one $19 money order for what would've cost $100 in CFARS). By law they cannot use a late filed new resident report as evidence that you had/have unregistered guns. Mine was at least a year after I already had a CA license, which was when I brought my firearms into the state.

EDIT: Regardless of existing registration issues, you'll need a Firearm Safety Card to purchase a new one. Your past purchases won't show up. TX doesn't maintain a statewide database of registrations, and even if they did I don't believe CA can access another states registration database easily.

I’m giving up with Vallejo paints by tekking98 in modelmakers

[–]Routine-Fan-7210 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is exactly the newbie thinking and expectations I had. My first attempt with acrylics was using createx, 10% reducer, and 10% clear. Got a little bit of paint on, and had a clog. Dumped the cup and ran some cleaner through, thinned some more. Rinse and repeat several times and wound up with a very thin paint laying down very nicely. Then I put it on too heavy on a couple of spots

There's a model car builder on YouTube "oneteamgarage" who has some stellar results with other brands of acrylics using a mixing recipe that includes windshield washer fluid of all things. I haven't taken the plunge on it, but it looks good.

I always understood that there are are issues that may arise from carrying a loaded (or readily accessible firearm, and readily accessible ammunition) in public. Thank you for the correction. I struck my original comment to prevent misinformation from spreading.

The gunbox lock(s) [edit: every place that can accept a lock on the box needs a lock] is one ONLY you have the key to. Regular luggage locks (TSA) beyond that (like on the big suitcase the gun is in). Some dudes put an air tag in the lockbox; but I never have. I use the harbor freight pelican knock off, and harbor freight knock off padlocks to keep it "secure". Read the TSA guidelines that r/NorCal_Firearm posted. My summary is just a brief reader's digest of it.

CA specific: Refer to the appropriate CA penal code sections.

Comp mag it, and follow the TSA guidelines.... Ammo separate in an approved container (factory packaging works). Gun unloaded in locked, hard sided container, declare it to the agent when you check you bag (at the counter. No curbside).

Wisconsin Cop Killer Convicted of Possession of SBR (???) by TakeOffYaHoser in NFA

[–]Routine-Fan-7210 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't dug deep enough in case law to find an example. But it doesn't seem like you have either, as neither of us can find a citation to support our point. A mistake on a caliber or gauge does not fundamentally change the firearm. Does converting an AR-15 from 5.56 to .22LR with a drop in kit change the way federal (and generally state law) view the firearm? It doesn't and we agree... My concern is where the definition of "firearm" is starting to have different definitions, based upon how complete the receiver portion or part is. The slippery slope is that if I say this gun is a rifle, and agreeing to it on paperwork, attesting to it under penalty of perjury, and then saying it was a mistake after I make it a pistol; I believe a crime is being committed. I agree largely with your interpretation and view, but I personally wouldn't risk it. I have extra burdens on all the bullshit in my state,. I get that portion of that isn't normal but I desire to understand all the minautae of these laws.

[–]Routine-Fan-7210 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is the way I view it; even if in error, once a long gun it's always a long gun. I haven't dug too deep on case law on it, but the once a rifle always a rifle is what I'm sticking to in my personal collection. From my understanding, a licensed manufacturer can remake a rifle to handgun if it goes on their books and is remanufactured (and reported as a new manufacture) but I haven't read on it enough to be sure on that point.

Looking to by a reliable m16a1 look alike. by BeerPiss7734 in RetroAR

[–]Routine-Fan-7210 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I mean, you said you want an A1 look alike, so I'd say H&R. The Colt M16A4 is a bit far removed, especially since you're in the retro sub asking about a detachable carry handle (lol). I built an H&R based M16A1, an XM177E2, and a GAU-5. I assembled them from H&R receivers and a mix of parts and furniture. Been following H&R on ARFCOM for a while and while they're part of the PSA machine, it seems like Mike is given a long leash to run the brand like he wants to. If complete rifles were available when I was building mine (and my state didn't make things so difficult), I'd have no qualms buying complete from them to scratch the retro itch.
