What are we drinking tonight, boyos?

Just poured a nip of Elijah Craig. Been that kind of week.

6 shots of Amsterdam 100 proof in, and sipping an Angry Orchard Crsip Apple. Not bad.

lemme go check...

I'm not saying I hate you, but I do miss living in Sac with Comcast. ATT has a monopoly out here for the most part, they need to update the actual wiring eventually for better speeds.

Oregon promotes teacher program that seeks to undo 'racism in mathematics'


The Oregon Department of Education (ODE) recently encouraged teachers to register for training that encourages "ethnomathematics" and argues, among other things, that White supremacy manifests itself in the focus on finding the right answer.

Part of the toolkit includes a list of ways "white supremacy culture" allegedly "infiltrates math classrooms." Those include "the focus is on getting the 'right' answer," students being "required to 'show their work,'" and other alleged manifestations.

An associated "Dismantling Racism" workbook, linked within the toolkit, similarly identifies "objectivity" -- described as "the belief that there is such a thing as being objective or ‘neutral'" -- as a characteristic of White supremacy.

Instead of focusing on one right answer, the toolkit encourages teachers to "come up with at least two answers that might solve this problem."

sounds lovely.

The funny thing is, I almost moved to Oregon a few years ago. It was the first state I wanted to move to and the move ended up getting delayed. Blessing in disguise.

How nice of you to assume they aren't already heuheuheu. End of the year, likely early December. I'll be SBRing a KAC SR-15 CQB and getting a can for it the day after I get issued my Utah DL lol, so it will feel pretty awesome.

Someone tell me how many rounds of 5.56 I actually should have hoarded, bc this is starting to feel stupid.

[BulkingIsHard]

Someone tell me how many rounds of 5.56 I actually should have hoarded, bc this is starting to feel stupid.

Probably like 500 rounds per person tops.

If you're bugging out, you'll likely need to travel light and avoid confrontation.

If you're bugging in, you'll likely die of starvation or dehydration before you need to hold off endless zombie waves.

If you're fantasizing about boog then you'll also likely die.

Oh yeah for those purposes I'm fine. I've got as many mags loaded as I'd ever carry.

I'm more worked about maintaining enough ammo to occasionally practice and/or pass it down to my kid if they totally ban the chit.... or to at least last until stuff is slightly easier to acquire.

For practice:


Dry fire if you're a poor.

Or you can blow off $1/round. Your choice I guess.

Edit: Just saw the price tag for the recoil system, nope.jpg

[ChaoticReignPbt]

I picked up a Coolfire trainer kit for my 320X5 to get more out of my dryfire routine while ammo is tight. I'm impressed with it. Not a cheap kit but not much more than a case of 9mm used to be. So worth it if you're actually using it.

My theory in general is prices have upwards pressure and its best to lock in prices before they go up. I think when times are good and prices low (like a couple years ago), you buy as much ammo as you think you'll ever shoot.

I don't know how much I have but its in the thousands. Enough that I'm actually concerned about the amount of lead on my property if I ever shoot it all. 5.56 is copper coated lead isn't it?

6x earnings, that's cheap right? Or is it considering they could be legislated out of existence. Not sure I'd make a gamble that the company will be around longer than 6 yrs to break even given the current political climate.

They seem to be taking a savvy approach utilizing all the unique business benefits, some expiring soon, in the short window of availability

Many of the traditional companies are sticking to their business model without utilizing the advantages of it.

I’m gonna guess they’ll be okay.

boogaloo is interesting topic because on one hand, 2a guys would absolutely route the leftist citizens. However, they would not demolish any members of the military with live training. If units like the rangers are in tact and represent the gov't then I could easily see them taking on 10:1 odds with success.

Live training with group tactics is being undersold to civilians. If you want to use your guns as instruments of freedom, you can only do so with skill and coordination with others...

Glad my first panic happened years ago. Learned not to slack off.

anyone know much many rounds of 5.56 per lb/kg? You guys got me interested now in knowing how much ammo I have

Loose ammo? Pack it into ammo cans. A .30 can filled to the max/brim with loose 5.56 holds right at 600 rounds.

News is Biden is set to ban ammo imports which can be done with executive order.

You would think that would boost them as well but it seems they are already selling every round they can pump out so perhaps not.

I think it’s already been discussed it’s not easy to ramp up production either.

Not real easy but they did just ger 2 entire manufacturing plants restarted in last month.


And since one was from the purchase of Remington , they get to take the TCJA bonus depreciation even though the equipment is used.


https://www.arkansasonline.com/news/...ear-exec-says/

Vista Outdoor, the company that recently purchased the Remington ammunition plant in Lonoke, said Thursday that integration of the Arkansas operation into its larger business is ahead of schedule and that it is hiring and training workers as quickly as possible to meet ammunition demand across the country.

During a third-quarter earnings conference call, Chris Metz, chief executive officer of Vista Outdoor, said the company had done a remarkable job bringing Remington into the fold, noting the operation had to be brought up from essentially a cold start.

Vista Outdoor was formed in 2015 when the sporting group of Alliant Techsystems Inc. was spun off. The company includes outdoor brands including optics and ammunition makers. It has 14 other manufacturing operations in the U.S. and Puerto Rico.

In mid-October, Vista Outdoor, based in Minnesota, closed on its acquisition of Remington's ammunition production facility, along with the Remington brand and trademarks. Vista Outdoor paid $81.4 million for the assets as part of Remington's bankruptcy.

I do not believe Biden will EO a ban on ammo imports.

But in theory if he did, that would definitely improve the financial situation of domestic ammo manufacturers because the stupid levels of demand + pricing would last longer, and prices would be even higher

I think the biggest driver Biden can have on ammunition company earnings is what he does with the defense budget. Specifically the allocations, not the total

Why you can see these companies hedging with oversees military contracts.

Guarantee you those contract orders get fulfilled before any round hits the shelf at Walmart or a gun store.
