Lonestar (Lockhart) Range

Texasguntalk is hosting a shoot there, so why not join them?

http://www.texasguntalk.com/forums/austin/12655-austin-range-day-meet-greet.html

also the weather has been relatively nice the last few weeks, so it shouldn't be too muddy out there.

Let's say I got cold at the range and decided "I'll clean my rifle when I get home". Let's also say I'm a procrastinator, and end up leaving my rifle 120 rounds dirty for a week. How should I change my cleaning routine, if at all?

What if I did it for a month?

Pic is just from google, that's not me.

Given all the torture tests I've seen, I really get the impression that people baby their guns far too much.

Huh, I think I read something in American Rifleman regarding cleaning and accuracy (not function) that almost said that cleaning was unnecessary. After reading, I now just give my guns a thorough once-over.

In my humble opinion, I dont think there is a point where you can clean it too much. However, I firmly believe that just because there is some carbon residue inside the gun doesn't mean its the end of the fucking world. As long as you keep it lubed until you clean it and afterwords your fine. Its when you have carbon buildup in the weapon and its dry as an old womans cunt when you start running the chance of undue stress on the internals.

So, what are the specifics defining the term "Concealed"?

As in, if there's a pocket clip visible, does that make it not concealed? Mostly pertaining to knives.

Picture related, unconcealed weapons.
No. 167656
If the actual item in question, be it a knife or firearm, is out of public view than it is concealed. If just the clip is visible then yes it is concealed.
No. 167659

It should be noted that in several states and in many educational institutions a pocket clip on a knife being visible IS considered plain-view.

Seems like a fine line to walk, and one that cops would probably get infuriated over.

What is the civilian use of a FN Five-seven? I don't understand the benefits.

Also, for military/police: What is the applicable use for this pistol?

You keep pushing that little blog of yours.

Anyway.
You've posted it so many times that I have a .txt file for it.

As for that blog :

>Its a bad range pistol due to its price and the expensive ammo
Hmmm.. Really?
People who want to win competitions easily spend over $1250 on a good target gun... A lot of the times, a 1911. These can range from $1000 to upwards of $6000. Then the ammo. You say 5.7 is expensive? Match grade .45 ACP ammo ranges from $30 for 50 up to over a dollar a shot. 5.7 ammo that gets 1.5 inch groups at 25 yards out of the pistol is $17.80 for 50 rounds.

>The PS90 to me is an atrocity as two of the biggest things that make the P90 what it is, the extremely high rate of fire and maneuverability, are taken away with semi-auto only and a ridiculous looking 16” barrel.
The PS90, even with its long barrel, is still more maneuverable in close quarters than a 10.5 inch barreled AR-15.

Get one from another builder that is still building the original Bulgarian kits from before the ATF barrel import ban took effect. There are quite a few still out there. They'll have the original Bulgarian barrel in them.

"Hoist with his own petard"

If a petard were to detonate prematurely due to a faulty or short slow match, the engineer would be lifted or "hoist" by the explosion. William Shakespeare used the now proverbial phrase "hoist with his own petard" in Hamlet.

In the following passage, the "letters" refer to instructions (written by his uncle Claudius, the King) to be carried sealed to the King of England, by Hamlet, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern, the latter being two schoolfellows of Hamlet. The letters, as Hamlet suspects, contain a death warrant against Hamlet, who will later open and modify them to instead request the execution of Rosencrantz and Guildenstern. Enginer refers to a military engineer, the spelling reflecting Elizabethan stress.

There's letters seal'd: and my two schoolfellows,
Whom I will trust as I will adders fang'd,
They bear the mandate; they must sweep my way
And marshal me to knavery. Let it work;
For 'tis the sport to have the enginer
Hoist with his own petar; and 't shall go hard
But I will delve one yard below their mines
And blow them at the moon: O, 'tis most sweet,
When in one line two crafts directly meet.

Got my CMMG Bargain Bin M4 today. I opted for the 18''. I did not pay for hand select. Got one mil-spec mag shipped with it.

Had a CMMG lower receiver. Can't find a damn thing wrong with it cosmetically.

Waiting for Magpul MBUS to arrive in the mail so I can toy with it at the range until I make a decision on optics.

I have to admit the collapsible stock looks a tad weird with the 18'' barrel, but I'm still pretty pleased with the purchase.
