Nice. A real A2 receiver. It seems like we don't see too many of those these days. I approve my good man.

I couldn't agree more. I'd rather give something away to any one of the brothers around here before I'd ever consider selling it.

That looks like a nice rig. Good find Rex.

Brother. I don't know $hit. I don't know what's going on. I obviously missed something somewhere.

What? You lost me.

THAT's fukin hilarious!

And a back pack. Like I said, I've got all sorts of their $hit. It ain't cheap and you're not gonna get it super fast. But their quality and CS has always been 2nd to none. All guaranteed for life.

But wait....there's more. These are the 308 pouches front and back. That's 6x10 GP pouch above the mag pouches. Those are great utility pouches. Thus the name GP. Here's the shoulder rig that I usually keep on me when out in the desert at the SDTF. And I keep all of that stuff stowed in a large Gear bag. Is it obvious that I'm a BDS fan-boy?

Other BDS gear porn. The split front rig. They called this one the Micro Rig. It has 3 pouches (5.56) and 2 pistol pouches sewn onto the front. It's pretty bare bones for a quick assault.

Ok. This is the dedicated 308 rig. The front has a bib section also that you can fold down into the kangaroo pouch behind the mag pouches. The back. That's a 3.5 liter hydration pack sewn onto the back.

Sure thing. I can round up a couple pics. I don't wanna be a tease though. Like I said before, for some reason BDS has severely downsized their product line compared to what they used to sell. I've got all sorts of stuff from them. And their customer service was always great whenever I dealt with them. Plus, all of their stuff is made in America. Granted, California, so it's more like America lite. I think to get their rigs these days, you pretty much just have to get in line and wait. Not that they were ever really fast for civvy shipments. Not you get on an email alert list, and wait for an available production slot. At least that's what their website says. I'll get some pics though anyway of some of the stuff. I'll be back. https://www.bdstacticalgear.com/

I can't wait to set the MRAD loose on the mile shot. I'm just limited to what I can bring when I fly out there (weight wise). For example: Last year I brought an AR-10 SASS, the new MK12, the MK18, sidearm, suppressors and mags and accessories for everything. All of that bumps up close to the weight limit for the flight. This year, I need to leave an empty slot in my case in anticipation of bringing back the AR-10 SASS that I left with 98 last year. So the MRAD probably won't make it back out this year. But it'll definitely be back the next year. Unless I regroup on the interior of the gun case and bring one less rifle and other stuff to compensate for the weight of the MRAD. She's not exactly the lightest thing.

I've got a bunch of individual 308 mag pouches that I got from BDS Tactical years ago. Being the standard pals/molle style,you can attach them to a vest, or run them on a belt. Unfortunately, they stopped production on them about 2 years ago. Don't know why. I've also got a dedicated chest rig (also from BDS Tactical) that has 308 mag pouches sewn into the front. That whole front section is also a kangaroo style pouch right behind them. So you can jam other stuff in there also. The rig also has 2 padded saw style pouches sewn onto either side. So there is additional storage capabilities. It's got a hydration bladder pouch sewn onto the back of it. So it's easiest to put the thing on like a pullover shirt. I've also got a split front plain chest rig (also from BDS) that uses fastex buckles. It's covered in pals webbing, so you can attach mag pouches anywhere you want on it.

Yep.

Okay. That's pretty damn funny.

College kids with rifles? What are you? A mad man? Welcome aboard from Maryland.

Got an email from AR 500 that I couldn't pass up. Any body armor is better than no body armor if/when you need it. https://www.ar500armor.com/invictus-heritage-bundle.html

Correct!

I'm not going to dog-pile here. Because I think that we can kind of agree and disagree at the same time. People tend to think of SBR's as typically being used as door-kickers. Which, to an extent, is what their primary basis of design is made for. Shorter barreled weapons, for close quarter engagements, so that you can move through doors and maneuver around corners much easier (read as aggressive) than with standard carbine/rifle length weapons. Now, with that being said. That doesn't stop them from being accurate at longer distances. My MK18 is deadly accurate in "short range" territory. Roughly in the 200 yards (ish) or less range. Am I going to try and push it to much farther distances? For personal curiosity...yes. For practical engagement? No. On the other hand. My AR-10 SBR (12.5" barrel) has banged steel out to 500 yards (ish) consistently. Once again. Would it be my "go to" for those kind of distances? Probably not. But it's nice to know that you don't necessarily have to storm the castle, if you can send harassing (and accurate) fire in it's direction from those distances when needed. In summary: Different tools for different needs. For reference, the MK18: And the AR-10:

Now why would you drag Larry into this?

A bunch of uncultured savages is what you all are.

Nice

Where I'm never against a good joke.....a good ribbing.....a gag some might say around here. A chocolate dick, ass, tits, vag or anything else would just be wasted on someone like myself. For one, I don't eat sweets of any kind (I don't even have any sugar in my house). So anything chocolate would go straight in the trash. No additional thought given to it. And two.........................................................well........................................................

Especially with the beer glove for colder nights.
