I love re-reading the old giant internet fights when everybody's favorite fanboy lube turned out to be pure vegetable oil lol. The butthurt was epic, and I learned that all the experts usually aren't experts. Not saying fireclean didn't work, just laughing at the people who paid 1000% too much for something they already had in their kitchen. I am running low on A-Z, and @JBMatt punches me in the head every time he catches me spraying remoil on my gun so I need to re-up

We would all be better off if that real evil just made a full court press. At least we still have the means to resist it. We continue to willingly submit to this death by 1000 cuts and they won't even have to try. I believe the the biggest gap between our points of view is which side of that real evil the majority of law enforcement will be on. Today's "politely asking to see your paperwork" is tomorrow's PAPERS PLEASE.

Historically speaking, "just following orders" has not been a good look.

BattleBots is 100% cooler than MMA. If you disagree, let's put a UFC fighter in the ring with one and see who wins.

fornicate that. Shall not be infringed. I have 100% problem 100% of the time with anyone "checking my papers". If I'm not in the middle of a bank robbery or a car jacking, the officer needs to mind his own damn business.

AZ has always allowed face to face firearms transfers. Most of my guns have no paper trail to me. If I found a smokin deal and the owner wanted some sort of bill if sale, I'd sign it. I would allow them to see my ID if they wanted, but not long enough to get any data other than verify my name and residency. I wouldn't give anyone a bill of sale on something I was selling.

I'll sell you one, and go buy another for myself Fk those alphabet bois and every scumbag who assists them. I wish aids and ebola and flaming car crashes and freak industrial accidents on every human in that building from the director down to the janitors.

This actually has me wanting to buy an airsoft pistol. Those things are pretty cool, and they make walthers! They are functionally correct with accurate weight. Great for training.

Promotional videos, but pretty good. I like most of it. Some of the footwork is wonky at first and we look like a bunch of new privates in boot camp learning to march, but repetition eventually wins.

Basically using pickets and tarps to set up "rooms" to run active shooter scenerios. We mostly ran 6 rooms, 3 on either side of the hallway. Reconfigured a few times to 5 rooms. The rooms facing the berm were open for live fire, but most of the drills were with airsoft. Started with red guns to get movement down. Moved to airsoft on paper targets. Airsoft on live targets shooting back, and live targets with medical situations (cpr/tourniquet) mixed in. My legs are blown out. I'm finally getting too old for this ish lol.

Not the fooseball team lol. Just finishing up RAIDER active shooter training. Focus on single man response to active shooter situations. Pretty good stuff. These dudes set up a cool little shoot house. Maybe some day we get real motivated at the TSDTF lol.

Low end vortex is china, mid level vortex is Philippines, High end vortex is USA/Japan.

Whatever country we retreat from next is going to love those!

There was somebody nearby rocking looooong strings of full auto. Had to have been belt fed.

The thing is fast! I was only loading 10 rounds, but it was screaming, and I feel like I could speed it up with a little more practice. I'm still kind of hesitant. I should have pulled the scope off, but I was out 4wheeling and hadn't planned on doing much shooting. Just wanted to see if it ran.

@Steve_In_29 you still liking that FAB bipod? I found them for 90 and thinking about grabbing one.

@sketch @SubGrub Can you do it? Yes. Should you do it? Probably not lol. I have a pretty hardcore brake on this gun. Some of you have been punished by it. You can actually see the camera shake from the side blast in the video. Even with that, there is basically zero control. A non magnified RDS or just irons would be better but still pretty useless. I was probably minute-of-yardstick at 50yds. I couldn't even see through the scope so it was just point and shoot. Might be cool if you had it braced really well on some bags and needed to keep some rioters heads down or swiss cheese a Prius, but you aren't shooting groups with this thing. I also think I broke my charging handle. You can see it slapping around. One strange thing, I found it hard to STOP shooting. A round going off on trigger release is both disorienting and a little frightening. It threw me off, and caused me to grab the trigger again, firing another round on that release. It's hard to explain, but it's kinda sketchy. I'm sure a little practice gets you through that. I really just did a few 2 and 3 rd mags for function check and then a couple 10 rounders for fun. Not as cool at the rare breed, but I'm not sure if RB would work in a 308. I don't think it will without modification. It is handy to have the selector switch. I wish the forced reset triggers could figure that trick out. PXL_20220108_195244536~3.mp4

Ha! Awesome. I wasn't real hopeful that would work either lol.

Worst case....a bolt catch isn't essential to a functional rifle. It's not even super important. I'd just spend a while rocking it while you are watching TV or whatever and see if you can get it to wear in and loosen up.

Look at British cars....you wouldn't care either. That wouldn't fly here. In fact, I wish a MoFo would try. Even lefties would blast those politicians straight out of office. Americans of all walks of life tend to make statements with the automobile they drive.

If I don't have to leave the warm house, Im ok with snow lol

Every time I watch the revenant, I just think I wouldn't even want to survive in that level of misery...not that I could. I enjoy "winter" for a few weeks out of the year. I'm Much happier at 115 than 15. I did catch Tucson's first snow day last Wednesday so I think I'm about good until next year. Me and my two favorite people had some fun.

Most scope manufacturers will list the largest objective they can handle. Should be fine with a standard 1.5ish" rail to center. I usually make a little spacer out of cardboard or something to test the height of a scope before I order the mount and make sure it's in a comfortable spot. Just remember some manufacturers measure from the rail to the bottom of the ring, and some measure from the rail to the center point if the ring. Adjust accordingly.

The parallax when you are way over bore really makes a difference at long range. I try to get all my scopes as low as possible while still being comfortable. Lots of measuring and searching different manufacturers specs.
