Latest I have found on the Lightweight Small Arms Technology program. Panel that is lighter more Compact and longer range than the 308, and also may be more accurate than standard ammo http://www.thefirearmblog.com/blog/?s=Lsat

Most impressive loads I found for a standard 45 ACP AR from Underwood Ammo comma though Buffalo Bore ammo does good ones too. The 460 Rowland is a very significant Step Up in power. As I understand it the reason all of them have muzzle brakes is to add Mass to the recoiling portion so that the gun does not break. Another option that is kind of in between the two is the 45 super, but I think it is closer to the hot 45 ACP than it is to the 460 Rowland. I have yet to see if I recall correctly any loads for the Rowland that use heavy bullets instead of light or standard for caliber and that is one of the things that i would be interested in

damn that stinks. I wish he had been wiser than to pursue the thief.

I had a mild argument with some of my young coworkers who are of the The Joker Is Awesome Club. My position is that almost anyone who saw the Joker approaching them would have grounds to feel that their life was in imminent threat of being ended. Therefore they could justifiably shoot the Joker in self-defense. But the writers don't think that would make a good story. Actually I think I might be a really good story as the news media and everyone else in Gotham had to discuss the fact that "the Joker was killed by a normal citizen, why have we let him terrorize us for so long?" I'll have the police not managed to shoot him? ( his fans argue to me that the Joker is a master at close combat and that's why he's managed to survive) the reactions of different people especially Batman, Commissioner Gordon and some of the other regular characters to the death of the Joker would be a fascinating story

Communist insurgents seem to rarely be that democratic. No atrocities? that is good news.

raisins are one of my primary sweets now. WinCo has a raisin medley with black, red and large golden ones...

a good idea, but they should have fielded the "spike" mini missile years ago. I wonder what the cost of each Pike round is?

I used to love Kookaburra black chewing licorice. after realizing it raises blood pressure, and then being diagnoses a well controlled diabetic, I can no longer enjoy it. the double salted european licorice drops are vile, imo.

I was just wondering the other day what has happened since the Maoists took over. I don't have time to spend as much time prowling the web for world news, I tend to assume the worst when insurgents take over a nation, have my fears come to pass?

Around here pork is often a better buy.

Neat! http://zdbonline.info/index.php/2017/04/14/shooting-with-m18-57mm-recoilless-rifle-firing-50bmg-sub-cal-round/

something similar was the basis of the Fin stabilized 30mm round used in the RAMICS anti-mine system. IIRC it would pentrate over 2 inches of steel at 60 or 80 meters. Seemed to me it would disable subs well...

Sometimes changing loads can make a large change to performance. Duplex subsonic load for suppressed .308/7.62x51mm rifles. http://www.thefirearmblog.com/blog/2017/03/13/modern-duplex-cartridges-david-tubb-absolute-2-hole-ammunition/

I can rarey decide which is worse, moving or job-hunting I despise them both.

Thanks for the kind words. I have a 22% less thing lined up after 2 weeks off, but am applying for better jobs. That one puts us on Medicare and scraping for bills. My networking got me a recommendation on a good one, hopefully I did well enough on the assessment test online... need to redo it for another position at the same company.

Well, as of yesterday I officially know... I am being laid off on the 17th. Apparently I am NOT upbeat and personable enough for the guy running the program I was in a group interview for... the only other person there that I know did not get in was the guy whose answers were basically sar astigmatism F-U responses. This would not be as bad if my wife was working... she got canned suddenly stating she was "not temperamentally suited because she would never be mean to the customers on the phone to get them to pay their bills.... we think the real problem was dead season cash flow, but... Then she tried an insurance sales gig. She got her licensed with a 92% but after a month of "training" which was basically being an unpaid intern, with the expectation that she should be there for 12 hour days 6 days a week, she quit. I already have some applications out there, but I just don't know how we are going to make it. My income didn't quite meet our expenses, and 60% of it on unemployment sure as he'll won't. The last 5 years or so have been rough. I am sometimes not sure how much more I can take without some kind of breakdown. I am actually less freaked than I expected, but then again I am on the internet at almost 2:00 AM, when I should be asleep.

Well shit.

New to the market... "innovative design"... Yes they like it, I am not too surprised

Not that far out of line with the boutique guns, You coul dbuy 2 or three for a Custom 1911...

I have never understood the rationale for restricting US missiles more than Soviet. We eliminated the more modern MX missiles , kept the older Minuteman missiles, and iirc limited them to only one warhead. I am not sure how many are on the Trident 2 missiles, but I don't believe they were ever fully loaded, and believe e they were cut down to 3 or fewer. I wish I trusted our military leadership enough to assume they were loaded with 7+ warheads worth of countermeasures, decoys, and penetratioin aids, but ... Now the Russians are boasting about a 16 warhead missile? Did they abrogate a treaty? Putin seems to long for the days of MAD.
