I'm really liking the BDC system on that PA scope, and the auto-ranging that they built in. It's pretty badass, with the thought that they put in to that reticle design. That's my bitch for .22LR, right there, hands down.

I made sure nothing was touching my barrel, on mine. This is an OLD rifle, and I lucked into this stock a few months ago. TacSol fluted heavy barrel. That Cabela's branded 3-9 BDC scope is getting ready to come off, and this one is going on soon. https://www.primaryarms.com/primary-arms-6x-scope-with-the-patented-acss-22lr-reticle?quantity=1

@GLD1980, old Ravenshiits doesn't post here anymore, but feel free to welcome him back over here if he "wants a discussion." I'm down. He last visited here in March this year, and his last post was Oct 2020. He's said alot of stupid shiit here, and I've been right there everytime. If you want some humorous reading, check his history here. If he wants to show up and talk shiit here, he's more than welcome, and I'll just bring up his past, here. You can remind him of that over on the Hide, if you want. Tell him I love him. He realized his bullshiit-factor was running thin, and kinda faded away from here. Now, he's on the Hide, feeding other people bullshiit. He bounces around. He made no more headway here, and just faded away. He knew it, too. P.S. By the way - YOU are more than welcome here. Looks like you've taken the time, and put in the work, on the 716 platform. That's never been a strong point here, because not many people have them. We WELCOME information like you posted. More knowledge on a platform, that not many have. Knowledge is Power, and that moves towards learning. We can tell you everything you need to know about converting a 716 12.5" barrel over to work as a DI gun - many here have done it. But the rest of the platform - eh, we just don't know from a lack of exposure. Welcome aboard, again, man. We don't care what the caliber is - doesn't have to be a .308 Winchester round from a large-frame AR. We're so far beyond that. It doesn't matter WHAT you shoot, here... It matters THAT you shoot. Nothing is off-limits, caliber, frame size, whatever...

I've been telling that guy to EAD for years, here. You're not alone. Search his history here, and you'll see me, climbing up his ass and spreading out like a Spider Monkey. Welcome aboard.

@sketch, I'll give you a full report, brother.
-
I vote MagPul Hunter stock.
-
I look forward to shooting your new air rifle at the Fall Shoot...
-
Makes perfect sense - but JMs and Safeties need to be watching everything, even when it's at blinding speed on a Mass Tac. Or jumpers die. It's freaky from the JM and Safety side - it looks fast as fuk if you're a jumper, but on the other side of it - it's fast, but in slow motion. If that make any sense. You did great, hooking that dumbass up. No chance for the safety wire in the snap hook on that one. If he's still alive now - he's alive after that jump, because of you. No chance he would'a yanked that Rip Cord Grip... Well done.
-
Ah Shiit... Did you shoot it yet?...
-
THAAAAAT LOOKS LIKE A BAFFLE STRIKE... I'm just sayin'...
-
That's a good stock, and LIGHT, too. You'll like the whole setup.
-
You can wait 'til the Fall Shoot. Maybe. I know that as SOON as you shoot DK's gun, ur done... If you can manage to NOT shoot it, and stay away, DirtBike Tommy will have his gun out at the shoot, and you can't get away from that... It's just "too much time..." Brace yourself, brother.

Definitely, a "minimum decibel level," or you'd never pass the JM Course. If jumpers couldn't hear YOUR VOICE inside a C-130 bombing along at 130 knots and doors open (or tailgate down), WITH earplugs in... Then they couldn't repeat the jump commands... The only things I ever saw that were truly crazy inside the aircraft were (2) Jump Refusals. They get dealt with rapidly, effeciently, inside the aircraft, and then they get dealt with again at the airfield when the aircraft lands, and then they get dealt with again ASAP back at the unit. Only time I had to take a dude out was... He approached with his eyes closed, literally threw the static line out, and promptly slammed his arms down hard against his sides - well, like he's supposed to, in order to exit the aircraft... "Arms and Elbows TIGHT into your sides!" BUT... with his eyes closed, and throwing that static line, when he slammed his arms down to his sides, he did it so fast that the static line went UNDER his arm. No Bueno, as a static line jumper knows... I close-lined him into the aircraft. He got close to the door, but he never made it out. It was during the conduct of a JM course, and he was a JM student, and he was scared to death of jumping. We had video cameras all over the interior of the aircraft. When all was said and done, he was dismissed from the course - after proper counseling, where he was shown the videos from all angles... I have a couple other "as$hole jumper" stories that I'll share sometime. Most of the time, they're just scared and inexperienced. But, they learn fast. As Fuk.

I've got a little bit of JumpMaster time under my belt - you stand the chance of seeing some crazy shiit inside the aircraft. You have to be ready for anything...
-
Not wrong at all, man, not at all... Dryer sheets - the scented ones. The more heavily scented, the better. Rodents of all types hate those things. I pack/stuff/stick those things all over the nooks and crannies of my camper. Keeps those little fuckers away.

How did the other jumpers around not notice that - and the JumpMaster? And the Safety? Hope he got very familiar with the Reserve Ripcord Grip. Jump Commands (SHOUTED VERY LOUDLY, IN A THUNDEROUS COMMAND VOICE)" +++Time callouts,vary by unit SOP, but there is usually "SIX MINUTES!" at a minimum+++ Get Ready! Outboard personnel, Stand UP! Inboard Personnel, Stand UP! HOOK UP! Check Static lines! Check Equipment! Sound off for Equipment Check! THIRTY SECONDS! STAND BY! GO! Those three in red were ignored by the jumper, and those around him. JumpMaster should have kicked him straight in the chest, back into the aircraft, as he approached the door - with no static line to handoff...

It's NOT DIRT! It's "Dirte"... Welcome aboard, man.

What do you have on order or in the mail? Part 2

YES!!! Great lookin' little Brindle!!! Maybe not crazy like Tig? Fantastic addition, brother, truly fantastic! -
I'll have DirtBike Tommy bring his to the Fall Shoot. He's about $2k deep, and it's badass...
-
This deal is still live, men - if you can add it to your cart, you will get it. https://www.surplusammo.com/products/saa-ar-15-m16-bolt-assembly-w-pins-nitride-9310-mpi-223-5-56-300aac.html If you guys fuk around and don't buy them out, I'm buying more this Friday. Get to it.

Just to touch on this - the forward assist is the same part, be it AR15 or .308AR. AR15 BCGs have serrations, and the forward assist grabs them. .308ARs don't care about serrations - because the pawl on the forward assist wouldn't grab any of those serrations anyway, because it's too short for that. On a .308AR, the forward assist WILL GRAB the shoulder on the BCG, and if it can grab that shoulder, it WILL seat the round. That's it's design, by it's very nature. The AR15 shiit came WAAAAY after all the AR-10 design. The AR15 shiit included the serrations, and that came from the US Army, stating it had to be there. In a nutshell - forward assists DO work on Large Frame ARs - all .308ARs. But only at that last very small "click." The FA WILL seat a round. But the common ideology for the Large Frames is... if that thing didn't chamber, do I really wanna FORCE it?!... some people say NO WAY!!!... But I've done it. Doesn't matter. I wouldn't force a brand new, never fired handload like that. But for a common load, that I've always been using? I'm gonna make it chamber, if I have to.

You quoted me, but I'm betting it's for @Rsquared - he's in the armpit of MD, almost lives in DC... I'm trying to rescue him, and move him to Skull Valley with me.
-
Holiday weekends are fun in the dunes - as you know from rescues - but off-weekends are when you really get to ride, and not worry about shiitheads out there... Too much money, and not enough experience, fuks people up. In my book, it doesn't matter what you ride, it just matters THAT you ride. Well done, man, with the 250F.

You have no idea how much it warmed my stone-cold heart, to read that, brother.
