And here's another plug for the new shooting Challenge. Heck, it's even named after this thread!!  https://www.ar15.com/forums/general/GOTOGUN-CHALLENGE--New-Shooting-Challenge/5-2275992/?page=1 |
John 6:35; And Jesus said to them, I am the bread of life. He who comes to Me shall never hunger, and he who believes in Me shall never thirst.
I just picked up a Badger 1.70 mount and moved my Kahles to my new 11.5. I'm really liking this Sionics barrel. I'm getting a little over 1 MOA with cheap 55gr Fiocchi .223. Might even do better with more mag. Awesome barrel for under 200 bucks. I'm hoping my 75gr. BTHP match loads do even better. Still waiting for my stamp.

Well the point (and the debate) with these is as follows (online and offline): Browe is an ex employee of Trijicon's. Inner workings must be very similar to ACOGs 4x32 (looking through the optic I will tell you I can't see any difference - and I'm told that it's by design). The point is, however, that since these are marketed at the same price as ACOGs (new), one would choose ACOGs. I frankly agree to this; I didn't buy this optic new and I wouldn't have. While it's truly a replica of an ACOG (probably with some enhancement?) one thing - market wise and value retention - is a Trijicon; another thing is an obscure brand that nobody knows about (and the company has been around for quite a while). Hence, if you find it used AND at a smart price, well then be it. Otherwise, I don't think I would do it. I paid for this one - which looks new - USD700 |

I have read that even now, in the year 2019, computers would provide a better medical diagnosis than an MD and in the very near future MD's will only input your symptoms into a computer which can provide better diagnostic results and specific prescription referrals than current MD's can. Why then, can't we automate the NFA Background checks like, tomorrow? |

Please call for more information- e-mail: [email protected] 713 487 7195 I believe their are 12 or 15 SOT holders how actually can also posses Explosives as of now, you just better hope one of them is in your Home State or be able to buy a second Home. |

I am a Building Contractor, I was able to get most of my information on Explosive Destructive Devices from a Friend that does my Blasting work. If you know someone who does Drilling & Blasting work, that would be a good source for you. They can get you the contacts for Explosives Licensing. The guy who does Our Blasting isn't some kind of Genius, just a normal Joe Blow with a Blast Box on a F450, he does have a bit of land but his shop is definitely not 70 ft. from the road. More like 50ft. His shop has a Residential Dwelling Within 100 yards too. Yeah there's a house right above him maybe 200ft. away. I plan on getting the necessary permits and doing Blasting on the side. Lots of Ledge in Maine so there is quite a calling for it. It's crazy to think, before the bombing of the Oklahoma City Fed Building you could get Dynamite at the Hardware Store. Literally, you could buy small amounts of Dynamite whenever you wanted. Farmers used to use a lot of it to get rid of stumps or rocks in Their fields. I actually have a Farmer Buddy that does have some HE 12 Gauge Rounds to kill SeaGulls in mid flight and they FOKIN work, boy do they! Shoot them straight into a Flock of hovering Gulls and the shockwave just pops Their little lungs. Killing a few keeps all of the Gulls away form His Blueberry Fields for about a week for some reason. |

Colt LE6920 converted to Mk18. Had ADCO cut it to 10.3" and open the port to Crane spec, dropped in an H2 buffer, and switched out the GI trigger for a Geissele Super Dynamic Combat. That's pretty much it. Also bought a bunch of Colt branded Okay Industries GI mags with the tan follower. At some point, I want to switch from the PRO to a CompM4, and switch the Surefire over to one that takes AAs. Basically I want all my battery powered stuff to take AAs. That way my sight, light, IR/visible laser, and PVS14 will all take the same batteries. Forget paying 15 bucks for two 123As that only have an hour runtime.

Just because I live in my parents' basement doesn't make my unfounded opinions any less valid.

Ok, yeah my buddy has a bit of property(50 acres or so), it would make sense that he probably has a blast shed out back and doesn't just go blabbing about it to everyone, we are only work acquaintances. |
