  1. *Mumbles something about a sucker born every minute* Looks awesome brother!
  2. Muy excellente!
  3. Kinda like how drummies went from being the inexpensive redheaded stepchild of poultry products to being ridiculously costly 'cause the wing fad.
  4. Post up some range results, can't wait to see how she does!
  5. No problem. Oh, and break it in literally dripping wet with lube in the internals. Large ARs have loads more surface contact area, and generally don't run when dry. Less lube will be needed as it wears in.
  6. Test it first. If it doesn't do what it should, you know what immediate steps to take.
  7. I think you may have just inspired another Fall Shoot event....
  8. You lightweights are so entertaining with your 'build it by the end of next year' BS.... Blow the dust off your man cards and make it happen. No excuses!
  9. Welcome from NC, close to the Hickory area.
  10. SLR's adjustable gas block is hard to beat performance wise.
  11. We're also going to have some amazing new contests....
  12. It's also impossible to have too much covered shelter, so if you have a portable open tent, they're terrific for providing shade for firing positions if you have them to spare. A small, light, stowable backpack would be a great investment for Long Range day. You want to be able to be able to bring all the small gear you may need over the course of the day directly with you to the firing position without shutting down the firing line.
  13. Bring or arrange to have a shooting mat. Even if you don't employ the thing in the standard manner, it can make a weird-shaped rock into a very workable supported position. You covered hydration and sunblock and hats, so that's good. If you wear contacts like I do, have adequate changes to cover each day you'll be there, as well as eye hydration and contact rinse. Eyes and ears are important, protect them at all costs. Wind and sand defy even very good eye protection, so have a way to get that cleared up ahead of time. There are precious few times that we go cold range, so have good hearing protection on your person at all times. Bee & wasp spray would be nice to have on hand, not an issue in Spring but definitely a needed feature for Fall. Temperature can fall off pretty steeply at night, pack something warm because the really interesting conversations happen in the coldest part of the night and you don't want to miss out.
  14. Just had an awesome plate of food; shrimp teriyaki stir fry with lo mein, broccoli, onions, mushrooms, and a side of shrimp sauce. Man, it was awesome!
  15. This thread is gayer than the 6th week of submerged circumnavigation on a nuclear submarine...
  16. I fixed the link.
  17. You haven't even scratched the surface yet brother, you should've heard the phone conversation that led to Ron getting into NV/IR, it's absolutely sick.
  18. They've been doing some great combo deals lately, the other night I built a discount .308 from buttplate to muzzle for $950 for everything shipped from Primary Arms. I didn't buy it, but it was a fun exercise.
  19. Glue eatin' sonsabitches!
  20. Always nice to hear from you Drew, hope everything is going your way.
  21. Whew, glad you kept that under wraps!
  22. 1,000 yards with a small AR. Happening.
  23. We got the Mojo too brother, just look at how Ron's NV/IR pursuit is progressing... *Fist Bump*
