I pay the credit card every Friday.
Scan the past weeks history for anything I don't recognize.
Alerts set up to text and email me all transactions.
Fraudulent stuff never lasts long. When it's happened I've gotten right on it the same day.
I have a third floor walkup.
I do NOT make second trips to load or unload.
If that means belt on, PC on, two backpacks, rifle case, and helmet in hand, well, too bad for the neighbors.
And, well, after seeing me ride a bike around with nods I don't think they're shocked by much of anything...
Backing off the throttle when someone is already ahead of you on the action curve is a great way to get killed. End of the day, police officers are not obligated to die for the sake of the person killing them.
Okay.
Should 911 operators hang up on people and refuse to dispatch officers when "untrained civilians" call to report "suspected" crimes? Is that the standard?
There was a report of a domestic incident at that address, which was the entire reason a police officer was there in the first place. Do you not want police to respond to calls at people's homes anymore? Is a police officer less dead if they get shot through someone's door than they are if they...
He's not a passing LEO. He's knocking and announcing himself in response to a domestic complaint.
How would you expect a passing LEO to react to you if you drew a gun as you passed him on the sidewalk at arm's length?
The point is that asking a LEO not to respond to this action is asking...
10 out of 10 times, the person with a gun already in hand can put a shot on target long before the person with a holstered gun can. From an OODA perspective there is no difference between brandishing a gun at the police and pointing a gun at the police. If they don't already have you covered...
So this already completely disproves the claims that it was the wrong apartment, that it was a raid, that the police broke down the door, and that the police did not announce themselves.
If Ben Crump's lips are moving, he's lying.
It does not surprise me that the case head and body are pretty much the same between 7x57 and 8x57. The narrower bullet and different shoulder would allow it to telescope just a little deeper into an 8x57 chamber.
The bullet is a millimeter smaller. There's only a whisper of rifling contact...
What's funny is that he dusts the initial cops off so fast in that car that, with a couple of corners between them, he stood a pretty decent chance at losing them if he hadn't wiped out. Stolen car, all he really has to do is find an unmonitored place to ditch it and find another way home.
Social security and Medicare and Medicaid will never actually be "insolvent". We'll just print more money to fund them. The money may not be able to buy actual services, but by God they'll be "funded".
Yeah, which kinda makes me wonder if 7x57 in an 8x57 would chamber just loose enough to produce this result. Particularly with lower charge reloads.
Be like shooting an oblong musket ball downrange, though. Wonder if the case mouth would fire form to the 8mm case mouth diameter and be checkable...
I have a Turkish Mauser within a year or two of that and it's definitely 8mm. Is it marked?
By the late 1930s I thought they were pretty much all standardized on 8x57.
Maaaaaan, check out the smoke as they're rolling up on the scene. What a massive wipeout. When the cop kneels to look in the car, I think that's a completely detached engine cooling fan just lying on the ground.
I think that audible reaction from the cop who finds what's left of him tells the...
Teams of brown immigrants harnessed up, pulling the trains with muscle power while a white guy cracks the whip?
What if this is all just a plot by Democrats to return to their glory days? At this point they're running out of Industrial Revolution to ban and roll back.
Much like night vision and thermal, the US can no longer assume adversaries don't have real time satellite ISR just like them.
And, much like we do in Ukraine, we cannot assume proxy forces aren't accessing those assets under the table
