Misc Firearms Crew LXXVII: Locked (Down) and Loaded

[LinuxJon]

Anyone here have a Mini 14?

Have a chance to get one at a fair price. Seems like a good hedge for legal home defense if Biden wins and bans "assault weapons" somehow.

you: Ferrari and Lamborghini and Porsche and Toyota and Ford and Chevy and Maserati and McLaren and literally everybody else
me: ok, and you're wrong

So, which one uses Amsoil as factory fill? I said they didn't, and if it was objectively better than all other oils, somebody would. So, if I'm wrong, clearly, one of them uses it.

Which one is it?

No, I disagree that an oil can't be good (or better) because it's not used for fill oil.

I never said or implied that in any way.

I said that scamsoil is not the best oil there is. If if it was, not only would the signatures series actually meet minimum API specification, but at least one automaker would use it. Spoiler alert: It doesn't and they don't.

The analogy is the principles in selection (or production) apply to everything a manufacturer produces, includes, or recommends, not just oil.
They give you a limp dick trigger or ****ty optic and don't question their oil selection?

Whose oil selection? What gun, what oil? What optic? What are you even talking about?

BTW: BCM probably benefits monetarily from putting Slip2000 in with shipments.

I'm sure it has nothing at all to do with Slip 2000 being a good firearms lubricant. lol

[LinuxJon]

Yeah I've seen it. Most of Paul's guns were built before I was born though, so I was hoping for a more modern opinion. lol. Still love his videos.

I know most ITT are already set up, but for any noob or anyone lurking:
If you haven’t already, get a weapon light for your HD firearms. I’m sitting here with no power after a hurricane and it’s dark AF throughout the entire neighborhood. We’ll likely be without power for days. Wish I had some NV goodness

Again, car companies do not care enough about top tier oils, so they'd rather buddy up with mobil 1 and other oil companies that are good enough. These are all business deals. Do you think lamborogini, mercedes, bmw, etc also use the highest quality car parts possible these days too? These car manufactors hardly give 2 fuks about reliability and focus on performace and luxury. They need to ensure you need bring your car in for repairs and maintaince. In terms of reliability a 4runner ****s on lamborgini. you do not understand the realities of business. You are smarther than this

amsoil is beyond api standard. Any **** oil off the shelf at walmart has this seal.

amsoil out performs lucas all day. Lucas didnt even make it to round two, i would never use lucas:




amsoil won a non biased oil superbowl,

People like you who even consider complying are the problem. No offense breh.

Mini 14 with the under folder A-team stock looks cool.

None taken. Its all your personal situation brah. If I was single, I'd be sitting here with a hoard of banned stuff I'd fight to the death over. I've got a wife and a kid. If I catch a felony for some BS weapons configuration, who is here to defend them from the chaos going on?

Chit goes south, Ill figure out someone who can legally hold onto the toys, assuming there's still good legal options left for HD. If they ban everything but sticks, I'll take my chances.

[Farley1324]

hahahahaahahha

Any **** oil off the shelf at walmart has this seal.

There is a reason the oil that most people buy meets the specifications that are required. Like, literally, if you even want your factory warranty on a car, buy the (very good) oil you can get at Walmart, don't pay three times as much for a scam that doesn't even meet basic required specs

[Legendsneverdie]

hahahahaahahha

here is amsoil stunting on a **** load of API oils

[Farley1324]

Nobody ****ing cares about your neckbeard scamchart

[LinuxJon]

Just asked a family member who worked in service and parts for a major motor sports company for 25+ years. Says he legit has zero opinions on oil brands because they all work and like 0.001% of issues would ever relate to oil quality.

But I also know most people here would intentionally inverse any ideas I have.

I’m in a similar situation, one kid and another on the way. Not gonna act like a tough guy and say if shiet gets banned I’m gonna go to war over it, but I’m not turning anything in / won’t comply. I have a meeting to get some life insurance this week, so worst case scenario they’ll at least have money.

bro even google amsoil and bobisoil

https://www.bobistheoilguy.com/forum...p-test.223148/

it's good oil man. It's just expensive so it gets hate from mobil 1 fan boys that are happy with their 20$ 5qt jugs. I do not even use amsoil, but i looked deep enough into it to know it is good.





thanks for the negs farley. seems you dont losing a debate.

Repped, fair enough. Fuk if I'd ever turn anything in. But separating uppers/lowers or sending them to family in free states to hold would beat endangering the family.

If you want any advice on the life insurance PM me. Probably can't sell in your state, but I've been licensed for 17 years.

It's not the best.

It is not superior.

Nobody gives a **** about mobil 1 either, you act like Mobil 1 kicked your dog or something, why do you keep talking about them?

But at least using mobil 1 of the appropriate weight won't potentially void the warranty for using non API spec oil that you paid three times as much for lol

amsoil meets api spec, check the pic above. If your vehicle is under warranty, of course use a warranty approved oil. you didnt have to nail me with your negs cause you disagree, especially being that we are both two big 2A supporters and on the same side of the fence. And amsoil is one of the top oils out there. I was suprised Redline didnt do better.

[4ea]

scrolling through old thread i see YGST...

im a pussy with hurt feelings

funny how you are so eager to paraphrase things you dont understand, and also ignore what i actually said, being momentum and the rate at which it is delivered are what matter. kinetic energy is meaningless.

.357 magnum is heavier than 5.56 but 5.56 is moving faster, so it will be slowed down faster.

[rectifryer]

This fukking thread I swear.

Picked-up a lancer systems carbon fiber stock and AP m5 fixed buffer set. Hopefully the stock is decent.

AP got back to me, said the bolt is cycling too fast because only *******s put rifle length gas system uppers on carbine uppers lol.

This
I barely drive
It’s probably been two years since my last oil change
Zero problems
Just lol

seems? you must be new

[4ea]

oh man....

[Legendsneverdie]

seems? you must be new

not new to the misc, but newer this thread. For whatever reason, as the election gets closer felt comforting posting in here with others who are worried about the same stuff.

For the vast majority of applications, I agree.

Have a weapons light, but you've reminded me to stop procrastinating on my generator purchase. I have a small inverter for essentials but want to go bigger to run the whole house.

I own one, and use them all the time at work (quarterly qualifications); it is incredibly reliable, and a great gun. I would have no problem using it as a home defense weapon; thousands of rounds through them over the years and only a handful of failures, most either my fault or the ammo, and only once seen an actual mini malfunction. Keep in mind our range mini 14s are treated like sht and get about 1000 rounds through them every 4 months; some have 25 years on post and still function flawlessly.

I would absolutely say it's worth getting one in CA simply because it is compliant out of the box, plenty of after market support, and it has one of the best stock triggers I have ever used.

speaking of lights need one over here. the one thing i dont have. What are the recommendations? I have this bookmarked (light/laser combo):

Have one of those myself actually, works very well on a Glock, light is bright and laser is accurate enough after sighting it in at 15 yards. Had it for about 7 years now and still works, only replaced batteries twice but I don't use it too much anymore.

Other had posted this a bit back, but OWL, and Modlite are both great.
