Painted the SL-K before sundown. Humidity might mess with it, but oh well. Weathering happens, and it's gonna get beat up anyways

The 6.8 really is getting just about done. I might get one of those dual-button thingies for the DBAL and the m600, might not. Need to play around with everything and the placement.

Happy Fathers Day

Unfortunately, my Father’s Day plans have been disrupted by the weather.

My parents were supposed to be coming down for the day, but it’s been storming like crazy with no end in sight. Not particularly safe for them to make the drive, so they’re staying home. Better to get to see them later than read their obituaries in the paper, though.

I figure the red circle on the first pic is where I'll put a dual button. Or two singles. But most likely a double button. The center of the two reticles just about perfectly line up for rotating. And I've tested having the light on the right, it won't obstruct an optic @ 45°.

So closer now than we've ever been, and not much more to go.

Once the light switches sides, the sling socket will go all the way out.

And then it needs a can, and that's it. Any other work will be routine maintenance. Maybe swap the Romeo eventually for a T-2.

I love the big puppers, but my wife doesn't want anything bigger than what we have now (and would really prefer smaller), so that she could manage them if they got hurt/sick and needed transport when I'm not around.

He got a bunch of cheeses, olives, and crackers, and then shrimp cocktail for lunch, and then herbed chicken, herbed salmon, potatoes, and maple mustard asparagus for dinner.

I'll admit that as ammo became a little harder to replace, I've shot the 5.56 more. I've gotta switch the SCB for a flash hider. It's a bit obnoxious
