All government, in its essence, is a conspiracy against the superior man: its one permanent object is to oppress him and cripple him. If it be aristocratic in organization, then it seeks to protect the man who is superior only in law against the man who is superior in fact; if it be democratic, then it seeks to protect the man who is inferior in every way against both. One of its primary functions is to regiment men by force, to make them as much alike as possible and as dependent upon one another as possible, to search out and combat originality among them. All it can see in an original idea is potential change, and hence an invasion of its prerogatives. The most dangerous man to any government is the man who is able to think things out for himself, without regard to the prevailing superstitions and taboos. Almost inevitably he comes to the conclusion that the government he lives under is dishonest, insane and intolerable, and so, if he is romantic, he tries to change it. And even if he is not romantic personally he is very apt to spread discontent among those who are.

I wondered how long it was goint to take for someone to "flame on" for that one. Honestly, I don't see where I'm taking any chances at all. Except for maybe having to press the shoulder back out if I miss measure. The headspace is checked AFTER assembly using 7.62 NATO spec gauges. The latter bit of WECSOGgery (tape on go gauge) tells me EXACTLY where the headspace is. I respect your opinion, Radio, but you're going to have to splain where I'm risking life and limb.
Good heavens... what a set!!!
