Bahahaha


U.S. Attorney Marin Estrada announced the charges Thursday.

Ippei Mizuhara served as Ohtani’s interpreter after Ohtani came to the U.S. to play baseball. Estrada says Mizhuara “acted as Mr. Ohtani’s de facto manager.”

Estrada says Mizuhara helped Ohtani set up a bank account where Ohtani developed his baseball salary. Estrada says Mizuhara stole more than $16 million from Ohtani’s bank accounts to pay for his own sports betting and lied to the bank to access the account.

DOJ New Gun Sales Requirements UPDATE: Texas AG Paxton with GOA sues Biden Admin!


Rule Seeks to Implement Provisions of the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act and Provide Clarity on Who Must Obtain a License and Run Background Checks
The Justice Department today announced it has submitted to the Federal Register the “Engaged in the Business” Final Rule, which makes clear the circumstances in which a person is “engaged in the business” of dealing in firearms and thus required to obtain a federal firearms license, in order to increase compliance with the federal background check requirement for firearm sales by federal firearms licensees.
“Under this regulation, it will not matter if guns are sold on the internet, at a gun show, or at a brick-and-mortar store: if you sell guns predominantly to earn a profit, you must be licensed, and you must conduct background checks,” said Attorney General Merrick B. Garland. “This regulation is a historic step in the Justice Department’s fight against gun violence. It will save lives.”

"This is a regulatory rule, not a law enacted by Congress. It is likely to be challenged and overturned in courts."

SOLD 28 Nosler Prefit barrel for Remington 700 threads. Barrel brand or who chambered it is not known. It is stamped 28 Nosler and is a 9 twist. Person I got the rifle from said it had 43 rounds on it. Rifling looks excellent. Profile of the barrel appears to be a straight 1.05" all the way out.

OJ Simpson, Dead at 76

From prostate Cancer, in Las Vegas, apparently, on 04/10. The family released a statement.


How many of you can recall where you were when the verdict was read? I was in a meeting at work and where the "director" had called a meeting of all his dept. managers and employees. He was a "no-nonsese" kind of director. He wouldn't take any crap. But there he was, putting the "radio" on the speakerphone (this speakerphone had a radio option), and there we were waiting for the live verdict. Of course, he turned it off immediately after the verdict had been completed, but...

Say what you will about his personal life, he could play ball. Although I will say that he's one of the primary examples that "broke" my admiration for celebrities. Now, I don't care about 'em.

Well.... maybe "Uncle Ted..." :ROFLMAO:

Ordered the Vudoo today

I wanted to give a try to benchrest ELR and TYL rim-fire shooting so I read as much as I could for the past week and today stepped off deep. (they say buy once and cry once but I'm still crying at the price). Anyway, I thought I would show you guys that are experienced in competition (or whatever) my order to see if what I ordered that is right or wrong for my intended purposes. I'm ok with criticism so you can be honest.

Vudoo Three 60 Bolt
MDT ACC Elite Chassis
Bartlein 24" Straight SS 1.20 w/EC Tuner V2
Rem 700 Diamond Pro Flat Trigger
Zero Compromise ZC527 5-27x56 FFP, MPCT2X (probably should have ordered a less expensive scope for sure)

I know that there is a long wait time from Vudoo Gunworks for the Bartlein 1.20 straight Barrel but I was fortunate enough to fine one in stock through a dealer and he said he can build and test it and I can receive the complete build in 2-3 weeks.

Thanks in advance for your input.

Beam scale… am I out of my mind?

Intellidropper got some ball powder (staball 6.5) inside where the tube dispenser spins. Also have caught it wondering from time to time which makes me go back and check charge weights

So I’m thinking of going to a beam scale because I’m tired of all the electrical interference or wondering I have gotten on the cheaper sub $200 scales I’ve used

I reload high precision (or atleast try to lol) ammo but do shoot 4-5 PRS matches a year so a fair amount of reloading during the season.

Really don’t want to spend $300+ on a scale but before I went the beam route figured I’d at least ask you all if there is a better option? If not, which beam would you recommend?

ES and SD are important to me, especially on my hunting ammo

Affirmative action Scrabble to hit shelves soon


By Olivia Murray




Scrabble is revamping—a more “inclusive” and “accessible” version is set to hit the shelves for those who don’t like the “competitive” nature of the traditional game. (Spoiler alert: The intended audience is Gen Z.)

Here’s the story, via a BBC report out yesterday:
Mattel is to launch a new version of Scrabble which is designed to be more collaborative and accessible for those who find word games intimidating.

The new double-sided Scrabble board will still feature the original game for those who want to play the traditional version.
But the new game on the flip side will include helper cards, use a simpler scoring system and be quicker to play.
Here’s what English broadcaster Gyles Brandreth said of the announcement:
‘The makers of Scrabble found that younger people, Gen Z people, don’t quite like the competitive nature of Scrabble….’
A “simpler” scoring system? How much “simpler” could Scrabble be though? As long as you can add into the single- and double-digits (or triple-digits with the right letters and premium squares), and you know your multiplication tables, the scoring system is self-explanatory.
Now, “quicker to play” I understand, especially when you consider the context of who the executives had in mind when they decided to remake the game-cupboard staple that had been the same for the last seventy-five years—as a whole, Gen Z seriously lacks any attention span. This is the group of people who text and post in some bizarre version of nonsensical shorthand: Frfr? Sus? Ngl? Bruh? No cap?

7_74_19.gif


But, would this Gen Z target consumer really look up from social media, ditch the phone, and sit down for a game of Scrabble if only it were just more “inclusive” and less “competitive”? I’m not so sure.
This story, of catering to a Gen Z audience, reminds me of when Eddie Bauer revamped its logo, opting to move away from the cursive script and adopt a block script; the cursive was too “confusing” for the “kids” who “don’t even learn to read cursive in school anymore.” (Johnson & Johnson did the same thing, although I think they may have cited the desire for a “minimalist” look.)



Of course, this is affirmative action Scrabble, the “disadvantaged” group being… the participation trophy group of people who’ve been indoctrinated instead of educated. (In fact, I’m surprised this version doesn’t actually include miniature trophies for all game participants.)
Sure they don’t have much of an English vocabulary and simple arithmetic isn’t “simple” enough, but they did “learn” Critical Race Theory, and they “know” their LGBTQ++ history.
And yes, grammar recitations were missed, but they can recite “my body, my choice” or “no justice, no peace” which frankly, are of far greater importance.

Now, I can’t snub a company’s efforts to adapt to a changing world and adjust their product to meet the demands of the market—and if the market is shifting, with more and more consumers being TikTok-addicted youngsters with the inability to focus and a public school “education”? All I can say is that I wouldn’t want to be in Mattel’s shoes.
What’s next? A Monopoly revamp? A Klaus Schwab version where you own nothing? A congressional variation where eminent domain comes into play? A New York “special edition” that includes squatters and a conniving “Peekaboo” James villain seizing property that doesn’t belong to them? Will the “get out of jail free” card turn into a “cashless bail” card?
This is nothing more than death by a thousand cuts; it’s just one more hairline fracture in the foundation of a moral and innovative West, an institution that the woke left methodically undermines, in large part, by churning out useful idiots. Yet, like a colleague articulated, “useful idiots” often fall into the “too dumb to live” category:

Newb seeking input on Battle Belts

I'm new to battle belts and seeking information...

I'm not new to taking formal training classes for pistol, carbine, and shotgun, but I've never worn a battle belt and it seems many trainers-instructors prefer the students wear belt rigs versus plate carrier or vest based rigs.

I already have HSG taco mag carriers for carbine & pistol mags. My pistol holsters often have Tek Lok attachments.

I'm cool with wearing padded suspenders to help support the belt's load.


1) Can most plate carriers be worn comfortably with most battle belts?

2) What factors do I need to take into account before choosing a battle belt?

3) I want the most durable gear that's also comfortable, and I'm not a weight weenie who has to have the latest tech.

4) I want the belt to be very stiff so it doesn't allow the attached gear to twist/roll outward.

5) I want it made in the USA.

Thanks in advance
