Jarhead_22: You're damn skippy I ignore 'em. We need a IGNORE feature on this BB. Type in some names on your profile list, say "M1man", or "PrattleInParentheses", (just inventing usernames here ahem, any resemblance to real members is coincidental and due to their vanity), and poof! Their posts don't show up on your page. Now that is a USEFUL upgrade, GoatBoy!
Now about guns. Among my ahem, modest rifle collection, I have two real nice Colts, blue label MH prebans w/ sequential serial numbers. One is in M4gery config, the other standard A2, only with a new gov't profile barrel w/ evil lug du bayo. I would never sell them, and I shoot them both every now and then. They both are accurate, and are zeroed with come-ups inked on the side of the upper highpower-style in case I forget.
Why do the receiver blocks bother me? I dunno, but it does. Should I have 'em removed, or leave 'em in? It kinda blocks my Jewell trigger adjusting screws. I had Kurt do one of my other Colts, but I didn't like it. Pulling out the blind pin kinda raised the metal around the hole and created a little shiny ring that the plug doesn't hide. No flame on Kurt, he did a good job, I just think there must be a better way to get the damn thing out. I have read the "hydraulic Marvel oil method" post, but I can never find anyone who's actually tried it. I think the best way to go is for a talented machinist to mill that sucker out with a carbide mill, and leave the pin in there milled flush with the inside so the stock look is preserved.
Now that's a gun topic. Of course this is Generally Disgusting, so anything goes, even God and politics. What would Jesus do if he had a blocked Colt? Would He have it removed? And what about the political angle? By removing the block, does that automatically make me a hate group member in the eyes of Feinstein et al?
I can't wait to hear what some think. [rolleyes]
Happy Thanksgiving holiday, y'all! No work 'till Monday for me, I'm off to slay a doe with the shorty Colt at a buddy's Mom's farm.
