Regrettably, as patriots, we only get to vote once each!

The difference between these peaceful protests in DC and the BLM protest is simple: Democrats would never condemn their supporters

The difference is extremely simple.. Democrats defend the people that protest and riot on their behalf no matter what.. the minute those things happened the minute BLM burn down a police station Democrats were on TV calling it a mostly peaceful protest and defending their actions.. Democrat news people like Chris Cuomo and John lemon we're trying to justify it and downplay it.. when Democrats have protesters they circle the wagons and protect their own..

when Republicans have protesters and even one of them does ANYTHING slightly off they immediately create a circular firing squad and compete with each other for who can stab the most people in the back

That's why Democrats get things done and Republicans never do.. the holier-than-thou road bullshit.. the minute somebody passionate for the Republican cause shows up and does something on behalf of the cause to try to further the cause Republicans immediately condemn them and try to shut them up and immediately try to squash any movement on the right..

it doesn't matter what that movement is. It doesn't matter whether it's a racist movement or not. Republicans immediately capitulate to Democrats and try to squash any passionate supporters of their party..

I can't say whether this is because they're stupid or whether they just don't want any passionate supporters because they only want people who donate money and nothing more.. but the facts are the facts..

Democrats would never do that. Democrats don't condemn their own supporters no matter how violent they are. No matter how racist they are.. Democrat BLM leaders openly state that they hate white people and carry signs saying fuck whitey but the Democrats would never throw them under the bus the way Republicans would if Democrats even ACCUSE you of being racist..

BLM riders burn down police stations and burn down courses and anti-kavanaugh protesters stormed the capital to the point they had to shut everything down.. did Democrats throw them under the bus? Did Democrats give resounding speeches condemning the violence? No. They actually did the opposite.. they got up on TV and said how proud they were of the passionate people that were fighting for their cause..

Republican leadership is weak. Republican leadership doesn't want you. They want you to donate money to their bullshit but they don't want you to fight for anythi

because it doesn't matter to them. It doesn't matter to them whether it is socialism or not socialism. Democrats are not democrats. Mitch McConnell will still get reelected in kentucky. He has job security. Lindsey Graham can still get reelected.. low population states that are deep red are very easy no matter how many people are angry at yo

The Republican party doesn't care. and that's why they fail.. they don't deserve you. And you deserve better..

Many people are urging Republican voters to take over the party.. to primary all of these people.. but that's not truly possible. I don't believe it is.. you might primary a few people. You were successful in Georgia and punishing Kelly loeffler..

But the true leaders of the party? Mitch McConnell Lindsey graham? These people purposely put themselves in States and areas where there is never a chance that they would lose their seat.. that's how leadership of the party is work. They pick leaders who can do and say things that most of America hates knowing that their seat is safe. Nancy Pelosi would never lose her seat. For district is so deep blue in the tank for her but there's not a single chance. Maxine waters? She can say the crazy shit she said because there's no chance that her district would ever vote against her.. and the same for Mitch McConnell and Lindsey Graham and Ted Cruz and others.. there was never a chanc

I don't think you can succeed by primary them. I think we need to abandon the Republican party.. and with the Democrat crackdown on anybody that opposes them and banning anybody that opposes them from social media turning America into a one-party State it's the perfect time to abandon the gop. To let them die out permanently.. so that's something better can rise From the assh

Untrue! Standard magazines allow for up to 30 votes each.

Yeah, but they jam a lot more often if you put in more than 20 for some reason.

I have thousands of rounds through my primary rifles and have literally never experienced a feed failure outside of the bottom end of load testing. If you are experiencing this, it should be fixable.

The one variable that is changing as you add rounds is the force exerted by the mag spring. The downstream effects of this are that:

  1. The additional force on the rounds is increasing the friction between the rounds and the mag lip, increasing the force required to strip the round.

  2. The exact timing of the round coming up to present itself is decreased (though I can't imagine many situations where this is a huge problem).

  3. The mag lips are deforming under the increased forces and feeding at the wrong angle. That or they are losing control of the round under recoil and you are double feeding.

If we are talking an AR then try the following: Nine times out of ten, the problem is going to be magazines. Make sure you are using quality mags which are undamaged. Number your mags -- often you will discover it's always the same magazine causing the jam. Discard that one.

Try different ammo. Assuming the rifle is in 5.56 something like XM193 is fairly hot and brass cased -- if it cycles with that you may be using weak ammo or your rifle may dislike steel cases.

The next thing to look at is things that slow the cycling of the rifle down too much:

Lube properly. AR's especially like to run wet -- if you aren't in blowing middle eastern alkaline sand that makes this impossible, then run it wet.

Check for gas leaks. Look for carbon traces indicating gasses blowing out between the gas block and the barrel. Double check that a gas tube pin is present. Examine the carrier key for looseness against the carrier. Ensure the end of the gas tube where it enters the bolt carrier is undamaged, and the gas tube itself doesn't have any small cracks. You are also going to want to check gas block alignment if all else fails.

Check the rings. Remove the bolt carrier group, extend the bolt, and set it down bolt first on a table. If the bolt retracts under the weight of the BCG you should replace the gas rings.

Examine the firing pin retaining pin. Ensure it goes all the way into the BCG and isn't dragging on the inside of the upper receiver.

Ensure your buffer spring is not cracked and is of the correct type. Standard rifle and carbine springs have different numbers of coils.

Examine ejection patterns:

3-4 o'clock is ideal.

If you are ejecting forward the rifle is likely overgassed. Consider trying a heavier buffer -- though this is usually a long term parts life problem rather than a jamming problem. Note that this problem is pretty common in commercial rifles, especially if you have a 16" barrel and carbine length gas system. It's usually not a huge deal, it just beats on the rifle parts a little harder.

If you are ejecting back at 5 or 6 o'clock, you are cycling weakly. Consider a lighter buffer if you are using a heavy one. If you found something wrong above -- pin dragging, lube, weak ammo or gas leaks -- those are all potential causes.

All of this stuff is a pretty good idea to do on a somewhat regular basis just to monitor the health of your rifle anyway (along with keeping an eye on your bolt lugs). You can catch a lot of problems before they start that way.
