SOLD Both gone.- Tangent Thetas, 5-25 Gen2 XR- price drop

Price drop, and all set on trades. Now just for sale.


Letting go of the last of my TTs. Fantastic glass, but honestly more than I need. Both are in excellent condition, with 1 or 2 very minor imperfections, pictured.

Deal pending on this one.


This one has a very small ding on the elevation & windage turrets. Nothing else that I've seen.
Look worse in the pics than in person. I almost missed them.





And the other one:

This one has a small scratch on the objective bell at about 1500.

Edit: I took this one off the rifle today, and that scratch really does look worse in the pic.

And if the rings end up selling with it, there's a small ding on one of them.

And 1 of the manuals is MIA. It will be included of course, if I find it before shipping. ARDs are included for both, along with the MKM throw levers.

Priced to sell at $3750 $3650 shipped CONUS. Add $75 if you want Seekins rings. Don't really want to sell the 20 MOA LT745, but I could be talked out of it for $225. I have an LT104 I could include for $175.

For more pics, proof of life, a pic with your grandmothers maiden name 😅, to discuss by phone or text, send me an IM.

Trade interests: ZCO 5-27, possibly a 420, with MPCT1, 2, 3, or 3X. NF ATACRs, 5-25 or 7-35, maybe an NX8 or NXS depending. Minox ZP5 5-25 with THLR or MR4. Trijicon Tenmile 4.5-30 FFP MRAD. Maybe a Steiner T6Xi 5-30, Zeiss LRP S5 MRAD, or Leica PRS with PRB, maybe a Magnus. Hendsolt, what have you got? Swarovski Z6 or Z8 maybe, depending. S&B PMII 5-25 or 3-12x50 Klassik, 3-12x54 Polar, 2.5-10x56 or 3-12x50 Zenith maybe. Can't think of anything else, but maybe. Plan on these being + $$ on your end, Hendsolt might be an exception. A package deal with multiples of these is possible, too. I don't need any binos or spotters, unless it's a deal ridiculously in my favor. Astigmatisms in both eye, so no RDS.

ETA: I'm all set on thermals and NV.

ETA 2: At this point, I'm more in need of a decent MPVO than another HPVO. SFP, 2.5 or 3 on the low end, 4 tops, 30 or 34mm tube, prefer illum. but not an absolute, adj. parallax. I need excellent low light performance. Possibly a TT315H, but can't think of too many FFP scopes that would work.

Something else that I normally wouldn't say for a trade, but due to the $$$ involved here: If you're new, have little to no feedback, plan on shipping 1st.

Not interested in any Horus reticles, anything Vortex, Leupold, or Kahles, and don't really like FDE. ( I won't necessarily turn my nose up at an FDE scope, but it's not worth a premium to me.)


Open to most payment options except PP G&S, checks will be held until cleared. Rifles, & other stuff pictured, not included, but I might be talked out of them.

Question on Service Record

Picking this as perhaps the best category for this question. My wife was going through old papers today and some were from her father in WW2.

Under Decorations and Citations are the following. Awarded 4 Bronze Stars for Normandy, Northern France, Rhineland, Ardennes. Campaigns per LTR ETOUSA 1944. Purple Heart with 2 OLC per GO 26 Hq 357 Inf 6 Feb 1945. Silver Star per GO 176 Hq 90 Inf 6 Dec 1944. Bronze Star per GO 94 Hq 90 Inf 20 oct 44.

I am guessing he was at Normandy and have no idea if he was in the initial invasions but it appears he was there and went all the way with Patton through the Rhine. Guessing because he never said much about his time but did mention serving under Patton. It seems to me he was a fairly serious dude.

So, what can anyone tell me about this?

Can You Overtighten Scope Ring Screws at The Base?

Ok, so I've mounted scopes and never had an issue. Just got a new rifle with a picatinny rail and I'm using Vortex rings. I've ALWAYS followed manufacturer's specs to tighten scope rings around the base of the actual rifle rifle/optic which is usually 15-18 inch pounds.

Vortex says the base rings though that attach the base to the rail should be tightened to 40 inch pounds. In the past I've always tightened these screws at base parts on rings an cantilevers as tight as I generally can (probably way beyond 40 inch pounds).

While I'm not saying that's a good idea or not, I've never damaged anything or noticed a difference in accuracy. Is it a problem to tighten these base screws for rings and cantilevers (not the top closure of the rings that go around the scope) just the base rings too tight?

Firearms Staccato XC

Staccato XC, 2022 build.
-Factory trigger done to 3.5-4lbs by staccato during initial build per my request, I preferred that over the very light comp trigger. Similar to the P trigger pull. Upgraded recoil spring as well, have original spring as well.
-Grip stippled by Matt Adams in an aggressive texture with a reduction.
-Leupold DPP mounted
-Surefire x300u included
-Safariland level 2 holster with nubmod included.
Approximately 400-500 rounds through the gun. Ships in original bag with magazines included.

Asking $4750 shipped for the complete setup, open to offers.

Thank you,

Poll: 1 in 4 Millennials Say Parents Cover Their Rent

Katherine Hamilton27 Jan 202368

2:53


Roughly a quarter of millennials say their parents cover their rent, and 35 percent of U.S. adults say their parents still pay for at least one of their bills, a new poll found.
The New York Post reported on the survey Friday, which was conducted with 2,000 Americans by OnePoll on behalf of Chartway Credit Union. The survey found that the top three expenses parents pay for their adult children are rent (19 percent), groceries (19 percent), and utilities (16 percent).
Almost 25% of millennials' parents cover their rent: poll https://t.co/4EHHqAKqDl pic.twitter.com/wnvYUDUEnN
— New York Post (@nypost) January 27, 2023
“About three-quarters of those respondents (72 percent) plan to take on these bills themselves within the next two years, but 30 percent admit they will be riding the wave until they’re told otherwise,” according to the report.
Thirty-one percent of respondents say they accept their parents’ help because they are trying to save money.
But despite enlisting their parents’ financial assistance, 85 percent of those polled say they are responsible with money. Seventy-three percent report opening their first bank account by the time they turned 25 years old, and 21 percent say they had a bank account before they turned 18. Whether they had a bank account or not, 30 percent of respondents say they had their own money to spend by the time they were 15 years old.
“How to spend and save responsibly are lifelong lessons,” Brian T. Schools, President/CEO of Chartway Credit Union, said. “It’s noteworthy to see that over three-quarters of those surveyed have been managing their own money for most of their lives. Still, a third of respondents find it difficult to find helpful resources to manage their finances.”
Half of adults did say they struggle to tamp down on frivolous spending, and 45 percent say they do not handle unexpected expenses well. Forty-percent say they struggle to pay their bills on time. Those poll struggle less with taxes (32 percent) and keeping a high credit score (26 percent).


Nearly 40 percent of millennial’s polled did say they have difficulty finding accessing useful resources to help them understand their finances. That percentage is much higher than for baby boomers, 11 percent of whom said they struggle finding useful financial information.


“While 85 percent of respondents see themselves as financially responsible when it comes to things like credit scores or savings, ironically, 50 percent of them struggle with unnecessary spending or unbudgeted expenses, and 40 percent struggle to remember to pay bills on time,” Schools continued. “Conflicting data such as this tells us that a lot more adults could benefit from some form of financial education, whether it’s provided in schools, online, or by their financial institutions.”

HILARIOUS!!!!
