Maggie’s truck buying

So I am going to be in the market for a truck soon. I am returning after a 10 month deployment and sold my Ram before I left. I have been at sea so pretty out of touch with the market. Obviously some internet some times, but is the market still completely crazy? I heard rumor that Chevy and Ford were forced to stop truck production until they met some B.S. EV quota?

Any thought or advice to current trends in the pick-up world would be appreciated.
Ideally I want a 3/4 or 1 ton, I live on a little acreage and have projects to get back to and if I can find the right truck it will be with me a while. I am looking to retire from the military and don't plan to buy again for a while.

thanks,
chaps

SOLD LNIB Impact 737R Action

Pretty much brand new Impact 737R standard bolt face. I say pretty much as I did spend an evening or two cycling the bolt so it’s not technically brand new anymore. It is cut for AW mags which allows for the use of AW or AICS mags interchangably. Serial number is taped just so that there is not a permanent history of it on the internet. I am completely open to a phone call for serious buyers before hand to make sure I’m legit. I have two of these actions right now and going a different direction with a project hence selling one. $1275 to your FFL.

We NEED this

A decent "get together".
Yea it'd be kewl to have it at some rifle range somewhere.
I'm all up into shooting shit as I'm sure most of you guys are.
But, it doesn't have to be that....a bar-b-que would be kewl too.
If anyone can come up with a vertical grill, I would be more than happy to do some donor kebab, the right way.
Just imagine 30 lbs of beef on a vertical rotisserie. Full on mediteranian spices, pitas, tahini, tzatziki, veggies, the whole shebang.
We could even say shit to each other we are afraid of saying online.
Whaddaya say guys, is anyone up to it ?
I mean it's a bar-b-que, nothing intended, nothing implied.
Gimme some input lads.

China the enemy within

Daily wire got some really good content. Recent watch was about China waging basically a cold war with the US. Stuff that happened before i was born of i otherwise would have never known. From spies in Dianne Feinstein's office for 20 years why she oversaw the committee granting China preferred trading status. To many arrests from Top Collegiate professors (MIT, Harvard) being arrested for selling research and technology information.

Proof or WOA for 223 SPR/Varmint 20" 1:8 Barrel?

Building a Prairie Dog slayer/long range 223 and deciding between a 20" 1:8 heavier profile barrel to run.

Had decided on WOA but they only have a 22" in stock right now and I kinda settled on a 20 since I shoot suppressed and velocity difference is about 40-60 fps between the two.

Which would you choose? $330 for the WOA and $440 for the Proof.

Also - would you go varmint profile or SPR/Predator profile if shooting dogs is on the menu?

Screw your assault weapons, I have...

... a SIEGE weapon.

My late dad and I built this twenty years ago for school. Yes, school. Elementary school. We built a fully-functioning ten-foot-tall siege engine for my fifth grade science class' trebuchet contest. And brought it on campus to let it hurl lead fishing weights tied to lengths of cord fifty-plus feet across the practice fields.

Paging Bender… Bender, do you need an alibi?


Remember that your chances of being beaten severely by a flasher with a dead seagull are low. But never zero.

Is @Bender accounted for?? Does he need an alibi?

HUMAN TRAFFICKING Update (Hoax)

Last night my son, who is away at collage, called at 2am very upset, saying his best friend's girl friend had just been taken by gang members. It's been 2 days since he's heard from her and he can't get any info from LEO. I told my son there is a possibility that the girl made the story up to dump his friend. I was half asleep during the first details of the story so forgive me if I don't quote verbatim. The friend said he received a message from the girl saying she thought she was going to be taken and if he didn't hear from her to call for help. That is the last word he has heard from her. I'm at a lose as what to do to help, my son was ready to gear up and go vigilante on some mofos, but I talked him down from that.
Any suggestions?
P.S. I edited when I got more clear info. LEO did do a wellness check but did not actually speak to the girl. That is what the boyfriend was told. He is currently in contact with LEO relaying all pertinent info.


P.S.S. After a second call with LEO, they actually spoke to the girl, she is ok, just seeking attention. Thanks for the help from a member here. I think maybe two pretty naïve young men learned a lesson.

Rare breed atf visit

Login to view embedded media
The atf showed up to his clients home for a rare breed trigger he bought on gun broker with copies of the emails exchanged from gun broker in hand. It seems they are going after individuals now, just watch your back, cross the wrong atf agent and you’ll spend the next few years in court. Personally I doubt they will be able to get convictions(contrary to popular believe the atf loses in court more often than it wins on issues such as these involving their interpretations on laws) but they can cost you a fortune doing it.
