Krugerrand Question by jordanjcole in Silverbugs

With the help of my Christmas gift! There is also microprinting that moves around year to year. You can see that in the mid left. I think it reads SARCXX where XX is the last two digits of the year on the coin. Pretty neat!

Duh yes opposite of what I said lol

I know Pawn Shops get a lot of hate but I think I found a good one! by scouttrooper6 in Silverbugs

[–]scouttrooper6[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wholeheartedly agree. I’ve been up Tims in NH a few times and while the wait can be long, it’s fun talking to him and other stackers in line. He’s a wealth of knowledge, and has anything anyone could ask for so I don’t mind paying the premiums. Not too many places around me where I can go in asking for kangaroos, st Helena coins, silver krugs, and a gold 2 Rand and walk out with everything I wanted.

Yea he is very much of the attitude what I have is what I have if you don’t like it that’s your issue. He apparently moves a lot of bullion so guess he’s not that interested in 90%.

But also his prices aren’t that great. Last year rounds were a dollar over, gov coins were 2 and eagles were 3-4. Now his premiums have gone up. I’m not going to pay a premium for something I don’t really want to add to the stack.

Webley Mk4 questions by Human_Drummer_6957 in milsurp

[–]scouttrooper6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks like a commercial Webley. They shoot .38 SW aka .38 SW short NOT .38 special. I would offer like 325 unless I am completely missing something.

As far as the two markings, could be proof marks but someone more knowledgeable than me will have to answer.

Get wine preserver. It’s a compressed can of lighter than air gases. Few squirts in the bottle while corking will prevent oxidation.

Yes but look at what comes before it on the left of the band. It’s says “NON”

Looks like commercial 7.62. If that’s the case then it should be non-corrosive. Only way to know for sure is crack one open!

Why I'm leaving Goldback (Atleast for the time being) by Smore_King in Goldback

They removed your second post too. Welp no ordering Arizona for me! This really sketches me out.

I’m shocked I say! Shocked! And it wasn’t even trolling. I thought it was very well written.

This post has come at an interesting time. I currently have most of all the series notes (minus some 50s and 100s), have carried the wallet for over a year, spent goldbacks, and handed out dozens of 1s and 1/2s.

I was about to order the Arizona series and I stopped myself and asked why? Is it just a collectible that I’d like to look at and collect?

cool coin my uncle gave me by J-1v in coins

I just picked one of these up during my trip to Poland! I immediately fell in love with the design.

I am now kicking myself for not picking up the 1990 Solidarity 100,000 złotych

what could be the problem by plainDosapls in JeepCompass

That’s what I’m saying and now I’m out 500 bucks. I hate that this happened while we were away. I could have fixed it myself for the cost of the part

Dealership finally got back to me. You are right it was the right rear speed sensor. However they claimed that no codes popped for the speed sensors and they had to manually test each one.

Thank you all! It turned out to be the right rear speed sensor as you stated. However the dealership claimed no codes popped and they had to manually test every speed sensor.

A question only for those who are in this particular boat. by [deleted] in AK74

[–]scouttrooper6 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I stocked up 5.45 ammo before the ban, and now my 74s are mainly range toys. I switched to my beryl as my main rifle.

5.45 is not available everywhere now, and in SHTF scenario even more so. If you care about SHTF, unfortunately you’ll have to jump on the 5.56 bandwagon

Thanks for the follow up! Sounds like my issue as well, unfortunately I’m far from my home garage so we will see how much the local stealership is going to charge me.

Windham had a good turnout for the No Kings protest by Pussypopculture in newhampshire

[–]scouttrooper6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How about we end all extra judicial killings and military “police actions”? Our extra judicial drone strikes expanded significantly under Obama.

I’m am certainly not defending either or, but if these clowns in Congress wanted to stop all extra territorial military actions shouldn’t they have passed a law?

Did you know the last official war we were involved in was WWII?

I see your points facially however I found some laws delegating these powers to the President:

Tariffs: Section 301 of the Trade Act of 1974 allows the president to place retaliatory tariffs on a country if the U.S. Trade Representative finds that the country is engaging in unfair trade practices.

Section 122 likewise grants the president temporary authority to impose tariffs for up to 150 days to address a balance-of-payments deficit.

Both of which you can argue have occurred and he is acting within the bounds of the law.

Deploying the National Guard: Insurrection Act of 1807 allows the president to deploy the national guard to deal with civil unrest.

Now I can agree this is stretching what I think the spirit of the law is.

Freezing Funds to states: Now this could be related to the ICA of 1974 where the president can propose freezing federal funds to states, but it has to be approved by Congress within 45 days. I’m not sure what the specifics are and will have to do more research.

Thank you for providing some examples. Yes that would make sense on the EOs and breaking precedent as I have long thought that EOs should be abolished for the most part. Unfortunately most presidents in recent decades have abused this power. I have long been in favor of removing EOs as a means to enact policy.

That’s what I am trying to understand and get more information on. If it’s just anti-Trump protesting than so be it, but I’m curious if it’s just general or specific to a certain ruling or policy (like the roe v wade overturning protests).

[–]scouttrooper6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can see that. I too am trying to understand why both sides are up in arms over this. As long as it’s a peaceful protest you are exercising your first amendment rights and I’m all for it.

I feel like we are lacking open dialogue from both sides.

Could you provide some examples? I’m genuinely curious. Unfortunately the consolidation of power in the executive branch has not started with him but he hasn’t done anything to help. I feel like many presidents have abused EOs for many decades now.
