If I recall the story, wasn't simple green created by someone that watched a friend die from chemical exposure? It inspired him to invent a non-toxic degreaser. I want to like simple green, but I don't have good experienced with it. It's ok for simply degreasing something with a light coat of...
True of M59/66 and M59/66A1, but the Yugo M59 has no grenade launcher configuration, but definitely not at prolific as the /66. I hear many complaints of the M59/66 gas valve, but it has never been an issue for me, though I'm no a fan of all the weight the grenade launcher puts on the front.
One of my longest friendships is a US Army CSM. He is Airborne Ranger qualified and spent many of his earlier years leading LRP teams in various places. LRP is absolutely the role in which you end up humping in everything you depend on for days or a week at a time. He is a crusty ol’ bastard at...
Yes, the bolt and carrier get hot (in this case the cutout is in the bolt carrier). The exhaust vent for the gas impingement operating system is in this slot as well. A handful of shots will get it too hot to touch with an unprotected finger.
There is no material benefit of not having a forward...
I’ve been doing the AR thing for quite some time in recreation, target shooting and hunting.
I can’t recall a situation in which I have thought “if only I didn’t have this pesky forward assist, I could have made that shot or walked an extra mile.”
At the same time I’ve ever had a use for it...
I have never much appreciated debating with those who don’t really take the time to read what you have said and take multiple occasions to object to some premise you have never stated. I don’t think there is anything further to be gained by our exchange. Have a good evening.
Please, point me to an FBI paper that gives data on self defense outcomes. Data on performance of handguns and ammunition may be “real data” however, it is not a self defense outcome as I’ve stated.
I have made no assertions that anything I have said is conclusive evidence of “handgun...

Other notable data points:

Yes, a heat gun makes it much easier. Cosmoline melts around 125° F and then it can be simply wiped or brushed off. Clean up with acetone or mineral spirits.
Retrieved can mean, regaining possession. Though getting one from the safe isn’t a transfer of possession in a legal sense, it makes perfect sense to use retrieve in the context above.
I fail to see the relevance of the number of youths perpetrating mass shootings as a means to endorse selectively infringement upon rights. You can use selective statistics as a justification for any sort of immoral infringement upon rights. This is exactly the purpose of our system of...
What part of the United States Constitution enumerates your God given right for the stair rise of your pleasing or to hunt game? What license or training course is necessary to obtain any other God given rights enumerated in the United States Constitution after the age of majority?
My SKS “Tito” that was one of my first guns from my father as a kid is probably what I would consider my “fun” gun. Maybe it’s just the nostalgia from the 90s when the SKS was at its height of accessibility in the US, but I don’t think I’m having any more fun than when I’m dropping in the...
