    Some say that's halfway to bolt failure, but I say that can be negated by using a higher quality bolt or BCG. I run Wilsons in many of my lower end builds and they are rated for 30K+. Then they ususally come back with "barrel wear." I laugh at them. If you are not active Spec Ops military, you're coming no where near wearing out a barrel. FFS. Theyll tell me they shoot 3-5K rounds a year, I ask them how many times they go to the range, how long, etc. (average 3-4 times for a couple of hours) then I tell them to be honest and they admit it's more like half that when I tell them that round count is impossible because I used to shoot about 1.5K rounds a month and would go nearly every week and spend nearly six hours each visit, and that doesn't include pistol drills which is another 300-600 rounds for another four hours (during the summer).
    I told them take it easy on your equipment, Maybe six mags through the rifle, then lock the bolt back, and let it cool, switch to another rifle, or work pistol drills while it cools. That is unless you have a desire to beat up your firearms.

    I get mixed reactions. Some say it's a good idea while other say that doesn't fit their timeframe for range-work. That's how I get them to fess up to what they are really sending down range. Every Friday, then turns into I try to get there every month and sometimes it's once a quarter. Which is the situation I'm in now thanks to the economy.

    Long story short, you can make a PSA budget rifle shoot and last as long as a premium brand. You just need to know what parts to switch out.
    For example,

    Lower receiver with stock will run you from 80-400. Since I cut my own, mine are about 300 dollars becasue I use CMC triggers and they are 130-200 each.
    Rear sight 20-100 dollars. Magpul makes a Poly one for about 20 bucks and it's good enough for back up sights
    Charging handle 10-200 dollars. I usually spend no more than 100 bucks on this. Don't see the need to buy a 400 dollar charging handle. The 20 dollar ones tend to break after about 5K rounds. Buy once cry once or at least postpone the tears for a bit.
    BCG 70-400 dollars. These you can usually find on sale, but even if you don't want to wait you can get a higher end one for about 200 bucks.

    so at the price of about 1000 bucks you can get a similar quality "duty grade" rifle for the price of a striped upper Wilson, DD, or geissele makes.

    Don't do anything foolish.

    He's in illinois, the "Land of Lincoln," which for the most part restricts black powder as well, i think crossbows and bows are restricted as well. he's limited to airguns though I think those are heavily regulated as well. The 2A really doesn't exist in illinois. Which is why only the criminals have weapons.

    I think any knife with a blade over 1 inch long is illegal. And I think they've ether banned the folding box cutter, for whatever reason. Let me check. ---

    Nope any blade longer than three inches (Chi-raq 2.5 inches - Chicago making citizens with that extra .5 inch less blade) which is retarded most major arteries are less than an inch from the surface of the skin, brachial and femoral are two not to mention, everyone knows about the jugular vein which you also can bleed out from. But the way it's worded is basically depends on the cop wanting to fill out the paperwork to arrest you and if the DA considers that you're the correct color (non-black) to bring to trial.
