For better or worse- things from your past you won't ever see again.

I was thinking about how the world has changed and came across some examples from my own life... I'll start the thread with just one example though, hopefully others will chime in...

I remember being in grade school and visiting the Gettysburg Battlefield on one of the regular field trips. The field trips did require several parents to jump in but what now seems to be... unusual, I remember literal scores of grade school children going back on the bus with "Civil War Sabers" picked up from the gift shops and not a single complaint was raised by either the teachers or "parental chaperons".

Anyone else have a similar story?

Rifle Scopes For those about to ... have a March 1-10x24 Shorty!

Hey Shorty-owners (I mean the scope of course),

I´m almost there to order me one, though I can´t find one to handle it.
So I hope you are willing to share your experiences with it.
:)

I´m asking me, how the eye-box is at 10x because of the 24mm objective.
Does it work good for you?

How do you run it when a higher magnification is needed, do you switch to 10x every time, or do you use lower magnifications like 4x as well?
Or in other terms, at which magnifications are the holdovers usable?

How´s the picture at 8x or 10x, still sharp and bright?

And the last one:
Do you run a red dot with it, and if so how did you mount it?


Any answer would help me and make me happy.
🍺

Illegals overrun Springfield Ohio

Apparently 20k plus illegals have overwhelmed the town of Springfield Ohio. They are supposedly eating people’s pets among other things if this reporting is true:


Anyone in that area? If so is it true?

Accessories Fresh Gucci Watch for optics (RMR/RMRcc)

Greetings all. This is a vintage 1997 Gucci. I'm the original owner, got it straight from Gucci, I blame the Beastie Boys and PNC for making me think I needed a Gucci anything. I haven't worn it in 20 years or so.

Needs a battery, I can certainly get one put in so its ticking if you have...

RMR RM05, RMR Type 2, RMRcc, really like dual illumination RMRs of any flavor, Aimpoint micro, or ?

American or quality Euro 308, 6.5 Grendel ammo also relevant.

*Fresh is a reference to the Beastie Boys lyrics from Johnny Ryall. The watch is 27 years old and was $675 back in the dizzy.

We're getting RIPPED OFF!!!

Went to get some supplies for load testing and noticed right away the prices on powder and primers has made another big jump. Powder prices were increased by $10-$15 dollars a pound and primers were increased by $30 fricken bucks to $120.00 dollars for a box of a thousand.
I wonder how effective a "boycott" of some type would be.
They're straight up GOUGING the crap out of us.

Look forward to some thoughts, opinions, and ideas.

Best looking Chassis

I consider the following chassis some of the best designs (looks wise only):
MDT JAE-700 G4
MPA Matrix
KRG C-4
KRG Whiskey

There might be other factors that affect one’s opinion on what makes a chassis good or great but I am new to the long range side of firearms and it seems silly to consider a chassis based on just its design but I would still like to know which chassis you guys consider to be the best looking ones.
