Sent you a PM, but I'd love to grab one of these for a desk/reloading bench.

SCAR 17 with the modified lower.  Yes, it's too much gun for close range/small game, but if forced to choose, I'll take that over having too little gun for longer range/bigger game.

Uh... its a LEO's ~job~ to walk around with lethal force and regularly (if not necessarily frequently) walk into dangerous circumstances. And almost ~every~ situation is potentially dangerous.

Saying there is a double standard here is a bit harsh. While it is true that different standards apply to armed LEO's and armed citizens... a 1:1 comparison is not appropriate, especially in this State where there are no armed citizens outside of home, business and hunting.

Frequency of occurance should not change whether a given use of force was treated as justified by prosecutors.  Instead, however, it's taken for granted that a cop (or cops) dumping a mag (or mags) into a man threatening him (or them) with a piece of wood is OK.  A non-LEO doing the same thing under the same circumstances would be taken to to trial and vilified for unnecessary use of force by many, if not most, prosecutors in the US--to say nothing of HI.

Odds of Hawaii prosecutor deciding not to prosecute a civilian shooter under the same circumstances?  I can see the PR statement now: 'This killing was clearly an overreaction by a trigger-happy yahoo who shot an unarmed man who had only a piece of wood in his hands and who wasn't even within striking distance when he was brutally gunned down with multiple shots from a high-capacity clip.'

Laughable double-standard is laughable.

So the sign defines "children" to include those who are 21 years old?  No wonder it's ignored.

Yikes!  Double-whammy of being out of the ammo market for a few years and just moving from the mainland has me  ??? at the .70/round cost, but went ahead and bought a case.  Guess I'll start getting back into reloading, too.

I see I just missed the December bulk sale.  Will OGC be doing a bulk sale for .223 or 5.56 anytime soon?  Thanks!
