  1. Does "my mind" qualify as a small part???
  2. A good dog is hard to lose. Condolences.
  3. I seen these reports also about this crash. But I didn't hear anything about the situation of the vehicle operator. although although in the initial reports I did find it strange they never mention anything about that pick up driver.
  4. Ya know, I was thinking about something like that......😁
  5. I just realized I can't take a good pic of my new toy to save my ass........
  6. Well, here is one pic. Board won't take the other one.....
  7. My wife surprised me greatly on Father's Day with something that I have had on my wish list for a few months, a new (to me) levergun! I had been looking at getting a 308 Long Ranger, and possibly converting it down the road into 358 Winchester.......but she beat me to the punch with a BLR in 358 Winchester! Her comment was this a mostly an anniversary gift, but part father's day gift also..... I was speechless for a minute with my boys and her all standing around me handing over a blanket wrapped gift. I had seen this on a local sales board over a month back and had commented that this one is ready to go, no converting, only a rear sight needed, and it already has the first scratches put in it. Needless to say, I was holding my new beauty in hand......with smiles all around. And she made sure there was some range time before the evening meal with the new addition also.....no problems to report, just a new rear sight necessary. Pics to follow shortly, they are on my phone. 0 x
  8. I had a feeling there were no quick and easy answers. There usually isn't for questions that come from my mind..... I was going to look up some of Faxons' specs just to see a proximal amount....and thank you. And I am not going after ounces, just some good weight loss.....wish it were that easy for my body....."just mill a lot off there!"😆
  9. I'm having my currently owned the barrel milled down, so I don't need anyone to Make me one. This Barrel shoots good, it works without fail, so I already know that much of it is correct. What I was looking for is personally how much weight do you think I'm going to drop off of this Barrel?
  10. I have a I have a question for you guys, I'm going to take my 16 in heavy barrel and my APF 308 AR and send it into APF to have it machined down to a pencil profile. My question is what do you think I'm going to actually lose in weight taking off that much metal off of that Barrel? Before I get a bunch of comments about just go buy a different Barrel, I cannot find a 16 inch barrel with the rifle length gas system in a pencil profile. I couldn't find a medium weight with a rifle length, maybe my gun Foo or search skills really suck. Either way I've not been able to find something that comes in the 16 in length with the rifle length gas system. And part of this is what we were talking for the cost if machining my barrel down...... I can't replace a barrel for that cost.
  11. I tried to convince my better half to go that route a few years back. Told her we should sell the house, buy the toy hauler, and turn nomadic......she wasn't too much in favor of that for some reason.
  12. Yeah, I ran out of time yesterday, or I would have posted the article from Firearm News dealing with this subject of John Wick 3 guns. Fairly decent writeup, and lots of pics from training.
  13. I thought the new set of pistols are customized 2011's, with Ar15's and a pistol caliber ar thrown in for good measure......
  14. I think that the fact ais s not being happy today, has to do with a lot of the young people, and even older people, being raised or coddled thinking that they don't have to work or pay for anything in a difficult way. That leaves a lot of people in a situation where mentally they are not very well adjusted to reality. just look at all of a sudden it is so easy and just look at all of a sudden it is so easy and common to see people running around screaming that they are either not a man or a woman or whatever they were born as. If I am not mistaken, gender dysphoria used to be classified as a mental illness. Now it is just something that needs to be medically fixed by whoever decides that they don't want to be something anymore
  15. yep yep I've already seen that they've started going towards letting everyone know the name and other stuff about the idiots. They released the name of the older guy, and apparently the underage killer is a transgender. Don't mind the fact that most of the young people that are transgender wannabe, transgender I think I am, I wasn't what I was meant to be, all have started with mental issues that needed to be addressed without slicing and dicing and drugs to fix your physical sexual organs.
  16. https://www.catholicnewsagency.com/news/no-greater-love----denver-catholics-remember-kendrick-castillo-who-died-in-stem-school-shooting-20922?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+catholicnewsagency%2Fdailynews+%28CNA+Daily+News%29&utm_term=daily+news This is where the pain comes from for myself. Knowing that good ones must fall to stop bad ones from approaching their goals of total destruction. And as a side note, mayhaps the news has turned a corner on how these killings have occurred. Finally. No more stories about shooter blah, blah,blah; but, more stories of how persons are stopping them. This is just a start, but a positive step in the possibility of reducing copycat situations.
  17. That was COOL to read that, the numbers and just thinking about working there.......awe inspiring.
  18. That is great! I put on a pistol shoot this February, and the same guy won top place in both categories, already had the S&W 308EZ we were giving for centerfire category, so he donated it back to the cause also. Made the Dakota Leathernecks very happy, as they received the pistol to auction off during a run this summer, along with the proceeds from the shoot.
  19. Stupid...... Here watch this, hold my beer, and don't say anything......I am on an idiot list....😡
  20. I must agree, tenting is out of the picture. Riding a motorcycle doesn't allow for much I the way of pulling your shitter or shower behind you....at least not when the wife is riding along with. Hotels are a much better option then! Have fun with the camper!!!!
  21. Rustycolt1860, sometimes it seems like the guys ask for schitts that don't matter, but that information can be the difference between easy and a BIG FUKN MISTAKE.....or just alot of pain in the ass. There are no mil-spec type of things in the 308 world, and therein lies many headaches for us. These guys have most of the stupid schitts figured out.....trust them.
  22. Not on topic, but I really wish I could catch the fuk ups caused by my autocorrect on my tablet.......
  23. I can't argue with you, as I haven't served. I don't know what training is provided to the members getting sent into harm's way/a poop hole no one show be in, all I know is the problems that I see and hear about with what is going on after they get back. I can only hope that I am NOT seeing way more positive stories than the negative problems of Veterans the is seenseen after returning. Like I said in a different way earlier, this is how I see it.
