Imaginary boats are very economical to own. The real thing, not so
much. If Harry actually did buy a boat, the IRS would have it in a
heart beat.

So you're saying the reason Harry doesn't hold titles to anything is
that the IRS would confiscate them to settle back taxes. Another reason
could be that his allowance doesn't afford him the privileged of
purchasing anything of consequence.

My new little Ruger Mini-14 came with one magazine, a five-rounder, that
fits flush and completely inside the bottom of the rifle. I kind of like
that for a couple of reasons:

1. it tends to slow down the pace of shooting, at least for me, and
slower shooting tends to be more accurate, at least for me.

2. with no magazine protruding from the bottom of the rifle, when I bag
rest the firearm, there are many places along the stock that can be used
for that purpose without the bag and a magazine banging into each other.

Ruger apparently makes 5, 10, 20, and 30 round mags for these rifles.
The 10-rounders, I am told, are simply 20-rounders with a "stop" welded
inside so they cannot be converted to 20-rounders, and that makes the
10-rounders legal for sale in states where larger cap mags are
restricted (such as Maryland).

I have a pair of 20-round mags for the rifle I legally bought at a
Virginia gun shop. Such are the vagaries of our state's laws...you can't
buy a 20-rounder here, but you can buy one out of state, bring it into
Maryland, and use it here. But if I buy any more mags, they'll be the
five-rounders. The way I see it, if I can't drop an attacking,
brain-dead, right-wing zombie with five rounds, 20 rounds won't do the
job, either. :)

Better hope that doesn't happen. Otherwise you will be charged with
premeditated murder.


Harry's little buddy in CA hasn't chimed in. What a good, dumb, lemming...

There are several manufacturers of true 10 round mags.
Those you are talking about are simply "loophole" products that are
pretty easy to convert to 20s.
Typically they just weld an extension on the follower that will break
right off (they did on my M1A mags), or you can get a new follower.


Even so, they're still longer than the five rounders and will stick out
the bottom of the rifle. Unless the zombies attack, I'll stick with the
shorter mags.

Whatever you like, I was just pointing out the 10 round mags are
available. I actually like the 30 rd for my M1A. It works as a rest on
the bench. I have no problem controlling my rate of fire.


I don't, either. I just like to be slow and methodical about shooting
off ammo that costs more than a quarter a round. The small magazines and
the time taken to load them helps.
I don't need that distraction. I usually load up 3 30s and I still
shoot them pretty slow.
On days when it is not crowded and you can move around I will shoot
some at 100 and some at 200. When I was getting my scope dialed in I
started at 50. I really hate the GI mount and I am thinking about
getting another system for it.
I just have a hard time justifying it for a gun I don't really shoot
that often.

My POS beater boat is pretty cheap to own and it does everything I
want to do.
When the DEP guys need a work boat, it works for us and I can crash
into the mangroves to retrieve trash or rescue a bird wrapped up in
monofilament.

I don't have to question whether you are a racist piece of ****...it's
there for anyone to see except, of course, for some of your equally
racist buddies here.

I suspect that you are the only one with that viewpoint.
