I don't know why gun owners continue inviting the liberal press into their lives. They will NEVER treat us fairly. It does nothing to help our side but helps them learn more. We can never win because of this. They keep spouting bullshit, we correct them with facts, and they take those facts, twist them and we have to fight the next round of bullshit. WE NEED TO QUIT “TEACHING THEM” HOW TO FIGHT US. Rant over fuck them. |

Read the article, actually not rabidly anti-gun 
It was however lacking in explaining this: But Mr. Crumling has also created something else in his garage that distinguishes him from his peers, a potential solution to a problem that has long vexed creators of 3-D printed guns: a bullet that wouldn’t ruin the plastic firearms. They don't explain that at all, only that DIY guns are becoming better and people are working on ammo for them that won't fuck up the gun |

I can reload and finish 80% lowers, I can make AK receivers as well.
I would make a reporter shit his pants if he came into my shop.

Read the article, actually not rabidly anti-gun First have some stories about how scary or dangerous something is (3D guns). Next educate folks on how easy it is to make scary bullets at home. Finally push for "something to be done". |

They cater to people who want to be spoon fed an alternate reality. Coastal elites who literal have no idea about how things actually work. They can read some article and stand with their pinky out at a cocktail party and speak about some edgy topic coming off as morally superior. FTNYT.

Powder and primers. If they wanted to, they could shut us down just by restricting access to either of those. 99.999% of reloaders would not be able to make either powder or primers. At least, not safely.

Pretty fair article, any possible technical issues were very minor.
They will, however, eventually come for reloaders. The relative obscurity and a perceived high barrier to entry are the only things protecting it now, IMO. |

There's just too many in the gun community who think they'll be the savior that finally opens up these leftists eyes when in reality their being used for information warfare purposes. It's about as annoying as the idiots who keep writing the ATF about pistol braces and 7n6

kinda what im thinking.. take what would be a bullet, extend the neck 2-3 inches rifle it. make the case out of stainless steel, with a nice beefy .100 thickenss. Quote HistoryQuoted:
Quoted:
Extend it a bit and rifle the free bore section and you would be completely GTG Just bevel the case mouth a bit to help with starting the bullet, then let the rifling hold the bullet in place, after it is pressed in to the proper depth. End result is a muzzle loading, primer fired, barrel that is quickly swapped for another barrel, instead of reloading the same barrel. ETA: Figuring out a way to feed those 'pre-loaded barrels' from a magazine, without the muzzles chewing on the internals of the plastic gun, would be a challenge. |

Imagine the liberal hysteria over matching the recovered bullets to the barrel being made pointless, because the barrel is ejected from the gun after each shot. ETA: Maybe something like this  Attached FileSort of a 'bolt over barrel' type action, with the barrels being fed forward a short distance from the magazine, and the 'bolt' sliding over the barrel to chamber it. When the gun is fired, the 'bolt' recoils and ejects the spent barrel. |

This is their new gentler approach where they “attempt to learn.” And by “learn” I mean “write an expose designed to introduce fear into peoples’ minds under the guise of understanding. They’ve started to adopt this tactic within the past month or two. It’s every bit as insidious as their past campaign, just in a less hysterical shell. Be on the lookout. |

I'm pretty sure making the state unlivable so people move to red States is done intentionally. A lot of the people who move will never put two and two together and realize that the high taxes and shitty economy are the result of democrat policies that they will push for in their new state. Others will realize that the high taxes and democrat policies did ruin NY but will still vote and push for some of them thinking just this one little change can't hurt never realizing that NY became NY through just one change at a time.
