I too am curious.   They do off the T-rex strap with it as an option.  Mine is coming with the strap because I got it in limited edition OD green -- for something that will never be seen once it's mounted...lols -- I'm an idiot.   But - they do have blem versions on their site for $65 if you wanna check it out

yeah, you do.   I'm running my first holosun (507cv2) on my p229 legion.  So far, love it.    And yeah, I can see where a snipped off zip tie would fill that gap ez-pz.  Meh, I've thrown money at solutions looking for problems before, but I like that this plate will basically allow me to run anything at any angle -- so it's kind of future proof

No, it'll wait until you have invested time and money into getting everything to work almost perfectly with it, then it'll fall short of something newer (that won't work with a lot of the stuff you already have).

It's the circle of gear.

i have other RDS's from aimpoint, trijicon, and vortex -- but the holoson really stood out for this build because of the multi-power source and Wake-on feature, and being able to select the bigger reticle makes acquiring it that much easier

I just picked up a used eagle industries dumper in Mcam on ebay for the poors.  It's not as light weight as the BFG but I also saved a few bills.   Gonna mount it small of back just below the BFG micro trauma now thingy

Chili, Tortillas, 1911s and pizza....can we talk socks too?

I just spent $85 on six pair of Bombas. Wife told me too...she makes the big money. Are these any good?

I should have bought a 20/rd box of 9mm instead huh?

I wonder if there is dissent in the ranks over there?

BLM wanted Xiden, they got Xiden (who has blew them off so far).

I suspect some of the useful idiots wanted "regime change" and got their wish.

Others aren't so much about redistributing wealth, social justice, equality for all 57 genders and global warming.
They are anarchists.
Not progressives, not democratic socialists, not socialists... Anarchists.

I've tried various bait.  Sometimes she falls for a smaller, gift wrapped box (with nothing in it), placed inside the larger box.

I don't know anything about Bombas, but my last six pairs of Darn Tough socks ate through $120 of REI dividends last year.  

Merino wool blend socks are comfortable, last a long time, and most brands have a no questions asked warranty.  

Get a hole, mail them in, and they send replacements.  

Just don't ever run them through a dryer.

I challenge you to go buy a single pair of SmartWool, DarnTough, or Bombas merino wool socks.

It'll set you back $20-25 until you realize how wrong you've been, and go buy several more pairs.  You can actually get away with wearing one pair for a couple of days without them getting funky, and as long as you remember to air dry them, they'll last for years.

My sister bought me some socks years ago that shrunk beyond being usable. I bet that was a similar sock.  I never mentioned or thought of it until now.

Nah, I know. I got the good socks on the tax payer's dime with my uniform allowance. You get what you pay for. I was just being a smartass.

At home, I'm still running around in the numerous pairs of Gildan socks that I've had for years. Wear once, wash once, repeat. I do have some nice Oakley socks for the gym, though. Those set me back. My kid had to eat rice and beans for a week.
