  2. Block 70/72 Viper - Gas, weapons load, cost ($80M). Eagle EX - While they can carry bomb, they are mainly missile trucks and they are expensive ($97M each). Superbugs are oddly cheaper ($73M each).

    There's another danger. The ruling is based entirely off tax collection. And as everybody knows, our taxes are done through the incredibly fuzzy process of reconciliation. Unless something is done to modify or repeal the NFA, Democrats will only need to reinstate a $1 tax on short barreled rifles and suppressors to put them right back under the NFA. Now, 2 years of unrestricted sales of these firearms would do a lot to make it less likely to change back, but the ruling is only useful if it is one step in a continuing process of deregulation.
  4. Why Superbugs over a Block 70/72 Viper or Eagle EX?

    Yet... In short, you will still have to abide by the Gun Control act which will require a background check to purchase. A good step in the right direction.

    The decision does not apply to everyone nationwide for the time being. It applies to the specific plaintiffs in the consolidated cases Silencer Shop Foundation v. ATF and Jensen v. ATF, along with certain affiliated entities. From the Silencer Shop Foundation case: Silencer Shop Foundation Gun Owners of America (GOA) Gun Owners Foundation Palmetto State Armory SilencerCo Weapons Research B&T USA Firearms Regulatory Accountability Coalition (FRAC) From the Jensen case: Texas State Rifle Association (TSRA) Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms (CCRKBA) FPC Action Foundation Hot Shots Custom, LLC The injunction also includes these plaintiff states: Alaska Georgia Idaho Indiana Kansas Louisiana Montana North Dakota Oklahoma South Carolina South Dakota Texas (God bless!!) Utah West Virginia Wyoming The ruling concerns NFA registration and approval requirements for: Suppressors (silencers) Short-barreled rifles (SBRs) Short-barreled shotguns (SBSs) "Any Other Weapons" (AOWs) in certain portions of the case. It does not eliminate NFA regulation of machine guns or destructive devices. However, the sources I found do not say that every person residing in those states are automatically covered simply because they live there! One legal analysis specifically notes that coverage depends on whether a person falls within a protected category under the injunction, such as a member, customer, agency, or other covered party. In short, the organizations directly affected are current and future members and customers of GOA, Gun Owners Foundation, TSRA, FPC Action Foundation, CCRKBA, Silencer Shop Foundation, Palmetto State Armory, SilencerCo, B&T USA, FRAC, and Hot Shots Custom, plus their members and customers as specified by the injunction.

    Well the stay of the NFA ruling expired...lets see if DOJ/ATF saying anything about making this nationwide.

  14. Update! Flight med just sent over my stamped docs. Officially cleared for IFC 1! Hope your stuff goes thru quickly, fingers crossed!!
  15. I have flight attendants who weren't alive for 9/11 and we're just now getting the barriers. We're a joke.
  16. No need to worry about that.... hey, look over here, we're installing a secondary barrier to the cockpit to make sure guys with box cutters won't hijack an airliner again! Unfortunately, history has shown us that we're usually ready to fight the previous war, not the next one. It is tragic, but it'll probably take either an actual hit or a very public very close call before this threat is taken seriously.
  17. Christopher Nolan has always had the most realistic take on the balance between freedom, ignorance, and safety. The Dark Knight was another excellent metaphor.

  20. I am really shocked this is not getting more traction. It was confirmed the drone was packed with roughly 800 grams of military-grade Semtex and PETN. It reportedly hit a Ukrainian cargo aircraft but did not detonate. Seriously how long until a nefarious group does the same to an airliner?

  22. Meh. If all the ways the Service moves POTUS around were revealed, we'd all be very surprised. People are likely to respond as though Trump thought that up himself. I've seen behind that curtain. It's creative, not cosmic. More to the point, if all the threats against POTUS were revealed, we'd all be rather shocked. It's the NY Times. They'll literally print any headline that makes the uneducated basket of MAGA deplorables look bad, and make their target audience cheer, click, and share. They'll soil themselves over unorthodox security measures that work well, yet not say a word about a black man murdering a white woman. It's partisan BS. Move along.
  23. Man, if this is true, what an embarrassment. Also, if true, should never have been revealed. I'll bet Iran created as credible a threat as possible without action to see him hide and sneak out, making him look weak, and by extension, the US look weak; just to fuck with him. Time to take those siezed assets and make em ours. And take the rest of their shit.

    So, a national police force like many countries have?!?
