Please help me spend my money...I'm down to two

I've narrowed things down to either a SR25 or LMT MARS-H and fwiw, I shoot Lefty and want a full ambi platform. I've looked at lots of other weapons and while I'd ask you to feel free to chime in with other options, I'm pretty settled on these two. I've shot both of these before and like them both a lot with the SR25 getting a slight edge. The LMT felt like cheating at 350y, it was so easy. I've also owned a Tavor7 and Scar17 (multiple times) and never felt the 'love' for either to be honest. Time in the Army has made me an AR-guy I suppose.

Items to consider:
Will go with a 14.5" or 16" barrel using a DA FH so that I can run my Sandman S
Will use multiple optics depending on intended use that day, including thermal
I already have a SR25 lower inbound (can either use it or sell and make a bit of money towards the LMT
Because of multiple factors, this will be my 'go to' gun
I work a LOT of hours with a schedule that lacks any sort of structure coupled with limited number of local ranges so don't have the time to perpetually fiddle with things

Which route would you take? The SR25 checks all the boxes except for cost; the LMT has other Pros like barrel changing (that I'd maybe only use to get a 20" 308 barrel) with the only Cons I can think of being potentially being overgassed and then having to mess around with buffers, springs, ez tube, etc. and about half a pound heavier.

All feedback is appreciated and have a Happy Christmas everyone!

Is gun violence getting worse . . . or was I unlucky

So I am a certified old fart now and as such I was out for my afternoon walk when I found myself in a new and interesting situation. I found myself if not directly in, very close to someone's line of fire, I could hear the gunshots closely followed by ricochets (Subsonic, either pistol or PCC). If had to guess I was less than 100-ish yards from the rounds point of impact and rather close to being directly down range from the shooters position. The problem was that I was on a bike / walking path in a "good" part of town at exactly 12 noon, not up in the mountains on the other side of a hill from a DNR shooting range.

Obviously this was a freak occurrence of me just being in the exact wrong place at the exact wrong time, but it did get me curious. I have a ring doorbell and I see all the time people posting about gunshots at various timers of day and night. Are you guys seeing a rise in gun violence or random shootings where you live or is the ghetto slowly moving in to my neighborhood? I'd be interested to hear your thoughts or personal experiences if you have a similar one. I did talk to a sheriffs deputy and they did find spent cartridges but I did not want to ask too many questions and appear suspicious.

SOLD WTT Supertrickler/AD-FX120i combo

Brand new never used. Opened the ST box to check contents only. Has 2.0 firmware already on it. Moving a different direction with my reloading shooting. The AD has been used with the ATV4 (already sold) in the picture.

Only trades Im looking is a new or like new MPA Matrix Pro for rem700 clone. Color not so important. Do not want a regular matrix.

Barrel Swap Equipment Checklist

I am gathering the equipment I will eventually need to do a barrel swap on my Howa 1500, and other rifles in the future.

Yes, I know the Howa 1500s are a sumbitch to change, and believe me, if I have doubts, off to the gunsmith it goes immediately.

I am posting to verify the equipment I will need as I have never done this before and thus I am ignorant.

1. Barrel Vise (I am looking at the Viper)

2. Action Wrench (I am looking at the Northland Shooters Supply version)

3. Savage-like barrel nut from Patriot Valley Arms (I would likely get the barrel from them too)

4. Go and No-Go Gauge (Clymer brand seems to keep coming up in my search -- is there better?)

5. Torque Wrench (Does anyone have a brand to recommend?)

6. Crow's Foot attachment for torque wrench to fit barrel nut.

I welcome your thoughts.

Thank you.

Dr Welsh's warning to members

LOL​

Don’t masturbate with Christmas ornaments doctor warns amid spike in seasonal injuries​


Dr. Welsh warns that inserting candy canes and other confections can cause infections.Jam Press
According to data by the UK’s National Electronic Injury Surveillance System, there were 13,213 cases in which people aged 25-64 inserting “decorating items” in their bodies in 2021 alone, Jam Press reported.

Go figure: Experts attributed the use of these festive foreign objects to “autoeroticism,” which Merriam Webster Dictionary defines as the “sexual gratification obtained solely through stimulation by oneself of one’s own body.”

It’s not just Yuletide baubles that have been found in peculiar orifices. Last fall, a randy Michigan got six kidney beans lodged in his urethra during a bizarre attempt at sexual gratification — known in the medical community as “sounding.” Meanwhile, in September, a 27-year-old man in India had to be hospitalized after allegedly shoving a deodorant canister up his butt, where it remained for three weeks before doctors removed it.

Firearms PVA John Hancock rifle 6.5CM SPF

I have a PVA John Hancock rifle in 6.5mm Creedmoor with a 26" barrel, it may have 10 rounds through it from being zeroed and has been in the safe ever since. Bought it as a spare rifle for friends who wanted to try shooting at longer range and it just never got used. Does not include the brake but I’ll leave the hellfire adaptor on if you would like it.

Well now it’s time to move so I’m downsizing asking $1775 SPF OBO shipped.

    • o 100% CNC controlled cutting of all barrels

Christmas spirit?

Where does one find Christmas to be more than purses and fulfilling some type of self-worth complex by trying to purchase/receive your way to happiness? I have some money, I ain't rich by some standards but I have done pretty well. I also have a lot to be thankful for and feel blessed. But these days it seems all this buying is just to buy, trying to prove how much someone means, or cares...or trying to justify worth, and value.

That somehow it washes away the dirt, at least temporary, until of course the newness wears off. Perhaps I am being overly cynical, and the path to happiness is in the next Amazon package? I am not saying gifts are wrong or whatever, but that Christmas has devolved, even just in my lifetime, to some Uber-marketed, hyped-up spend-fest.

And ya, ya Salty...where you been the last 15 years while fuckers be beating each other over the blue-light special flat screen TV? Idk, maybe it's a culmination of factors, but man...that old Christmas spirit, doesn't seem to shine quite as bright anymore.
