    Rifle Scopes Is a Viper PST Gen 3 coming???

    Personally, I think this is a solid design overall but I’d tweak a few small things if it were me. I’d make the lines at each full mil a little smaller/shorter, extend the .2 marks all the way down, and I’d probably prefer a dot center but would happily buy something with a cross like you have...

    Rifle Scopes Is a Viper PST Gen 3 coming???

    BMI is stupid and outdated. Ever crunch Arnold Schwarzenegger's BMI when he was in his prime at 6’0” and 235lbs? It was around 31, which put him in the “obese” range… Body composition is a far more accurate gauge of health. Anyway, while I’ll admit this was a disappointing release for us, I...

    Welcome from Tippecanoe county! I, too, wish to get into NRL22, but our lives have been pure madness for the past two years, so I’m still trying to make it happen. One of these days…

    Tikka T3 Thread

    Yeah you are, you’re a BAD doughboy!! :ROFLMAO: Honestly though, if 6.5 Swede were more easily sourced I’d probably go with it over a 6.5CM, but it’s difficult to find in my neck of the woods. :(

    Bushnell Elite Tactical scopes over the years.

    I honestly don’t have a handle on the timeline of everything, but I do know the original Elite Tactical models were solid optics (I’m still running three of them: two 6-24x50 w/ G2DMR reticles, and one 3-12x44 with a mildot). Sure, from a features standpoint they’re ancient, but the glass is...

    FN SPR Trigger options

    I’d give my left nut for a quality, field-reliable two-stage for my FN SPR (same for my CZ 457s now that the other guy quit making them). I MUCH prefer two-stage triggers to single stage. For as many M70s and CZ 457s there are, I’m confused as to why Timney (or someone else) hasn’t done them...

    Rifle Scopes Is a Viper PST Gen 3 coming???

    It’s all good! I feel you on the sleep issues, I’m a CPAP user myself and they’re life changing machines! Hopefully you see the same benefits I do with mine. As for the scope, I’m not necessarily in the market right this second, but I might be in a few months, so I’ll definitely wait and see...

    Rifle Scopes Is a Viper PST Gen 3 coming???

    Easy there brother, I was just pulling your leg a little, hence the snarky comment about being “stuck at work for a year and a half” and the laughing emoji… :ROFLMAO: I legit have no skin in the game, so if they actually are dropping a new line, then I’m definitely curious!

    Rifle Scopes Is a Viper PST Gen 3 coming???

    NEXT WEEK??? Boy, you can really tell who’s important in this thread. I got my test sample TWO weeks ago. Sadly, I’m stuck at work for the next year and a half and don’t have any photos, so you’ll just have to take my word for it… ;) :ROFLMAO:

    AIRCRAFT PHOTOGRAPHY: anyone else want to participate?

    Nice! We have one in about as good a shape as that just a few miles up the road at American Huey 369. A guy I trained is the one who flies it most and he stopped in for some gas back in February. After I filled them up, he let me take it for a lap in the pattern. Seeing as the first helicopter I...

    AIRCRAFT PHOTOGRAPHY: anyone else want to participate?

    @Baron23 that’s a T-28 Trojan. Not a great photo, but this one’s based at my airport. It served in VT-5 on the USS Lexington, apparently. When he bought it, it had the markings of VT-3, and since he served in VT-3 he decided to leave it. Other than that and some semi-updated avionics, it’s...

    The Gutless Old Party!

    I rarely participate in political discussion because the corruption involved sickens me, but this is why we need term limits. Without them, politicians will lie to your face to get you to vote for them. EVERYTHING comes down to them being able to remain in the game, where they can be part of the...
