I don't actually start threads very often, but this is pretty fucked up if all of it is accurate.

Billions Wasted, Thousands Harmed​

Between 2018 and 2021, US taxpayers—through Medicare and Medicaid—paid $18 billion for drugs approved under the condition that follow-up studies would be conducted. Many never were.

The cost in lives is even higher.

A 2015 study found that 86% of cancer drugs approved between 2008 and 2012 based on surrogate outcomes showed no evidence that they helped patients live longer.

An estimated 128,000 Americans die each year from the effects of properly prescribed medications—excluding opioid overdoses. That’s more than all deaths from illegal drugs combined.

A 2024 analysis by Danish physician Peter Gøtzsche found that adverse effects from prescription medicines now rank among the top three causes of death globally.

Elmiron: Ineffective, Dangerous—And Still on the Market​

Another striking case is Elmiron, approved in 1996 for interstitial cystitis—a painful bladder condition.

The FDA authorised it based on “close to zero data,” on the condition that the company conduct a follow-up study to determine whether it actually worked.

That study wasn’t completed for 18 years—and when it was, it showed Elmiron was no better than placebo.

In the meantime, hundreds of patients suffered vision loss or blindness. Others were hospitalised with colitis. Some died.

Yet Elmiron is still on the market today. Doctors continue to prescribe it.

“Hundreds of thousands of patients have been exposed to the drug, and the American Urological Association lists it as the only FDA-approved medication for interstitial cystitis,” Lenzer and Brownlee reported.

Trying to get rid of the Tac Ops as a set Tango 51.... I purchased it from here a few years ago, the previous owner said he fired 2 rounds.

got over excited and forgot about the cameras, civil rights and that it wasn’t his wife handcuffed that he was beating .
He was co fused because there’s never been any consequences for doing this at home .
Fired arrested and charged with felony assault . The city is considering hiring him as the new chief.
At least it was real DUI arrest this time .

Go to the 1.08 mark and be ready to be pissed,...

I am currently working on a digital boresighter that uses Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning. My website is Zero-Verify.com, and I would like to find an SME to assist. I currently have an engineer working on the design and development, as well as the back end of the app, a marketing director who is also working on the front end of the app, and an optical engineer for collimation, as well as a Data engineer for cloud structure.

Complete PRS rifle. I built this rifle over the winter and have only fired 20 rounds though it. Here are the details: Everything was bought new!!!
Impact Action
Foundation Samson stock with all brass inserts. I gave the brass a weathered look. You can easily shine it back up in a sonic cleaner.
MDT bottom metal with adjustable mag catch
TriggerTech diamond pro curve
3 new barrels. 2 are Alpha dasher .154 freebore. One chambered by Wright Rifles Krieger. One chambered by TS Customs Benchmark. The last one is a Proof 6 gt prefit.
Acutac bipod
Zeiss LRP S3 6x36
ARC one piece scope mount with diving board

I’d like to sell this as a package for $6500.
Someone could easily make a couple grand by splitting it up.

Well it was a good dream that we'd no longer have to have an anal exam to extend the 2nd amendment to own suppressors and SBRs, but the parliamentarian has axed these two measures. So unless John Thune grows a spine, or JD Vance steps in, there's little that can be done from what I understand.

I have a very nice sub-7 lb. 22 Creedmoor built by Fritz of Black Canyon Customs. Seen only 3 boxes (60 rounds) of Hornady Precision Hunter 80gr ELD-X’s, average groups around .71 MOA. Great rifle but need to sell to help build my house. Rifle has well over $4k in it, but need to move on quick. NOT INTERESED IN TRADES OF ANY KIND

Kelbly Prometheus action with the 75 degree bolt. 18 inch Bartlein carbon barrel (5/8x24 threads/sendero contour). Manners LRH-NV stock in OD Green, MDT hunter bottom metal with 5 round MDT AICS magazine included. TriggerTech Special 2-stage flat shoe trigger (the scope, bipod, brake, or suppressor not included in sale).

Looking to get $2900 for the setup (shipped and insured)

A bit of good news.

In a historic decision, the United States Supreme Court delivered a powerful rebuke of activist judges and handed President Trump a pivotal legal victory on Friday.
The decision in Trump v. CASA, Inc., reaffirms the rightful balance of power between the judiciary and the executive, curbing the ability of unelected district judges to paralyze the will of a duly elected president.

In a 6–3 decision, the Court sided with the Trump administration, ruling that federal district courts lack the constitutional or statutory authority to issue so-called ‘universal injunctions’ — sweeping orders that block government policies nationwide, often at the request of left-wing advocacy groups.

Howdy, looking to offload my RMR RM01 Type 2.

Purchased this a few months back and never got around to using it.

It comes with a low-pro UTG mount, rubber cover and hard case.

Looking for $300 plus shipping.

I have myself an AR-10 in 6.5creed (not suppressed). This batch is factory 120g Hornary ELDM.

No real issues to speak of, but i was looking at my brass today and noticed a few things...

1. Using the borescope, i noticed a rather sharp gouge on the shoulder of the chamber. See screenshots.
2. All my brass has this mark on the neck and uneven burn around the neck.

Is this anything to be concerned about? This is my first big rifle - so i don't have any body of knowledge on what it should look like. And i was going through the mechanics in my head and thinking, what is making that dent in the neck of the casing and i came up short.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Not me, but just found it on a rainy day. I am thinking a double charged case. Kaboom happens at around 19min in.

Gun worked for 20 min and then big kaboom. Dude is lucky he has both eyes.

Don't get me wrong I think they both should be glassed, but why is it that Iran has to allow nuke inspections,... when Israel does not?
Double standard much,... earth carbon units?

killed quicker, than fucking his wife, depending how she cooks, can fish and drive a tractor.

Are you looking for a sturdy carbon fiber tripod that won’t break the bank?

We’ll have I got a deal for you:

This tripod from E-Image is just what you’re looking for. Fully extended it stands 7’ tall, has a 100mm bowl (I’ll include the leveling base for no extra charge), has supported my fat ass (280lbs) and really does a great job holding whatever you put in it about as steady as the main gun on an M1A1 MBT. As it sits it’s already ARCA compatible, and that leveling head really is all I found I needed for 95% of stages I shot with it.


Looking for $250 plus shipping.

ps- please excuse the mess, trying to get this room cleaned out and put together

Are you thinking about shooting Mammoth? Maybe you just enjoy a solid ruck in your spare time? Do you like to LARP inna woods on your weekends? Does your job require you to live out of a rucksack for days or weeks at a time?

Well, if any of the above apply to you, you have found your newest rucksack.

You’re looking at an LBT 10 Pocket ruck in LBT’s ODish green. It comes with the ruck itself, an ALICE frame, and LBTs suspension system.

The 10 pocket ruck is similar to the Large ALICE in a lot of ways, but incorporates almost every modification people make to ol’ Alice. Added exterior pockets, long vertical pockets, an extended lid, ports for COMMO gear, an internal divider for your sleep system, a sleep system flap, and so much more.

The suspension itself is a somewhat radical change to ol’ ALICE, incorporating load lifters, IV Bags, and some pretty awesome padding.

The only reason I’m offloading it is once I modded my Large Alice incorporating some mods I picked up using this, I haven’t had a need for it anymore and it’s been living in a closet for the past 4 years.

It is in great shape, it’s honestly nearly new.

If you’d like additional photos let me know, I could take 100 photos of this thing and not get every detail. I can also put it together before shipping if you’d like.

Looking for $400 plus shipping.

Howdy,

I’ve got most of a Crye Ghillie deployment kit here for sale today.

I got it when I did a Sniper’s Leader course a few years back at Benning, and haven’t touched it since.

It will include the Top, Pants, Boonie, the odd reversible overcoat and pants, a canvas drag bag, some CB fabric to reinforce high wear spots, some mesh, and a whole bunch of the little tassels Crye came up with to try and replace netting and Jute.

Honestly it’s a great suit, it was pretty well thought out and very well made.

I’m pretty sure it’s a size XL, and the boonie is 7-3/4. Definitely big on the boonie, but they were out of 7-1/2 that day.

I’d like to get $350 for the whole set plus shipping.

Selling these since reducing the rifles that were in these.
