Once again this is a law that disproportionately impacts the poor and minorities. Where is the outrage from the media??? More importantly why are the pro 2nd Amendment groups not shouting about this inequality from the roof tops.???

From FB Lucy Nicolar was born June 22, 1882, on Indian Island, Maine, the daughter of Joseph Nicolar and Elizabeth Joseph. Every summer, her family traveled to the resort town of Kennebunkport to sell baskets. Lucy and her sister performed in Indian dress for the tourists. In her late teens she started performing at public events such as sportsman’s shows.During those performances, she came to the attention of a Harvard administrator who hired her as his assistant. He took her into his household and gave her musical and educational opportunities in Boston and New York. In 1905, she married a doctor and moved to Washington, D.C. Eight years later they divorced, and Lucy moved to Chicago to study music. Lucy Nicolar also toured as part of the Redpath Chatauqua Bureau, then the Keith vaudeville circuit. She married a lawyer who became her manager. He took all her money and fled to Mexico after the stock market crashed in 1929. When vaudeville died, she returned to the Penobscot Indian Island Reservation with her husband Bruce Poolaw, a Kiowa entertainer from Oklahoma. They opened a gift shop — a teepee 24 feet in diameter — called it Poolaw’s Indian TeePee and sold traditional Indian crafts. They also continued to entertain locally. Lucy and her sister Florence campaigned to improve life for their people on the reservation,. Their land stretched along the Penobscot River from Indian Island near Old Town to East Millinocket. The sisters raised the educational standards for Penobscot children by gaining access to the public schools. And they persuaded the state to build a bridge to the island. liberty-pole-old-town Postcard of Indian Island before the bridge Lucy and Florence also demanded the right to vote for their people. When the state extended suffrage to the Penobscots in 1955, Lucy Nicolar cast the first ballot. The Old Town Enterprise reported “The princess has done much for the uplift of her people during her public career, both locally and nationally.” Lucy Nicolar died at Indian Island on March 27, 1969, at the age of 87.

If your Marlin has a glitch in it have a competent Marlin gunsmith look at it. You might need to change the OAL of your ammo or the carrier may be worn and need Garrison Joe's fix. But the first thing is to be doubly sure the screws are tight. Especially the one on the bottom just forward of the loading gate.

Accurate Molds can’t cut the line groove as deep as the “Big Lube” bullets, but it does carry sufficient lube.

UPDATE Prayer request for my brother

Keeping you both in my thoughts and prayers. -
In the Navy our division chief would send out a memo to inform all the shop supervisors of a meeting. Which could have been easily done verbally. He refused to accept any input verbally. We had to go back to our shops and type a properly formatted memo then hand deliver said memo. DA** that was a PITA. He was an english major and a real stickler for grammar and formatting. Was always kicking something back because he didn't like how it was worded. He soon earned the nickname of 3M. Memos, Meetings, and Memos

One good thing that came out of covid is that a couple of daily meetings that I used to have to attend in person, I can now attend via a conference call. Meetings are 30 minutes apart and when I had to attend in person the time between the meetings was unproductive. Now I can get things done in between as I don't have to leave my desk.

I've had it and it sounds better than it tastes.

Anyone done business with TACNATION-USA

I have the UpLULA magazine loader and love it. With their adapter it works on single stack 1911 mags as well as double stack magazines. Not as fast as the ETS Cam Loader but it easily fits into my cart for WB and in my small range bag for practice days. https://www.maglula.com/product/uplula/ One down side to the ETS loader is it is designed to work with rounds in factory boxes. Being as 99% of the 45 ACP I shoot are reloads and almost all the 9mm I shoot is bought in bulk, it doesn't look like it would really speed up the process that much. -
That made a good song even better.

Wait a minute... You get to clean guns indoors!!!!

None of the videos I’ve posted nor the SASS speed records have the shooters stoked their guns. All of the 97 shooters single load through the ejection port.

I as going off what I have read. 1 round on each target IMHO he is that fast.

Boy you have a LOT to learn about speed shooting. Jerry M can shoot a revolver faster than anyone including him can shoot a semiauto. Look it up. Bob Munden's single action world record was 2 rounds on 2 targets from the draw in .12 seconds. Shooting only 4 shots, the current SASS speed records are: Hammered Double - 3.21 Hammerless SXS - 2.64 97 - 2.48 87 - 3.11 So you don't have to do the math, that hammered double record averaged .8 seconds between shots. Gut C Gunman and Skrap P were shooting 6 shot 97 runs. The between shot average was .63 and .65 respectively. Extrapolated to a 4 shot run you are looking at runs in the neighborhood of 2.52 and 2.60 seconds. Without seeing their draw technique it could have been even faster. It bears pointing out that all of the above record runs required hitting and knocking down the requisite number of shotgun targets. AND the folks that shot them put in several thousands of hours of practice.
