Giffords Group To Spend $15 Million To Support Harris And Anti-Gun Candidates

Death From A Distance
  • Gun control activists are ramping up spending to elect presumptive Democratic nominee Kamala Harris president and help Democrats capture the House of Representatives in November.

    GIFFORDS, a gun violence prevention group founded by former Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords, on Friday announced a $15 million campaign targeting battleground state voters. The ad buy is for television, digital advertising and direct mail, as well as for sending Giffords and surrogates to stump for Harris and down-ballot candidates who support tougher gun laws.

    "With just over 100 days until election day, GIFFORDS will redouble its efforts to support champions who are committed to saving lives — including ensuring that Vice President Kamala Harris becomes the next president of the United States," said Emma Brown, executive director for GIFFORDS.

    The multi-million dollar campaign will focus on swing states like Michigan and Arizona for the presidential election, and swing congressional districts in California and New York, which could determine control of the House of Representatives next year, NBC News first reported.

Form and Function of MOA and MIL​

TLDR

  • MIL single-digit rounding is more comfortable and faster.
  • Dialing MILs is simpler.
  • Speed Dope is useful in many applications.
  • MILS align to range much simpler than MOA
  • WIND in MILs is far easier than in MOA.

Introduction​

When it comes to long-range precision shooting, the debate between MIL and MOA scopes can feel as old as time. Articles continue to pop up saying the exact same thing, never daring to step out of the well-worn track of last week’s article on the same subject. Most of these articles are filled with mathematical gobbledygook, and others don’t dare offend one camp or the other. The common responses often leave so much to be desired that I find myself wishing I had the time back from reading the latest article to spend doing something more useful – like watching YouTube.

So instead of waiting for the next version of the exact same thing, we are going to write what we have wanted to read but never found. Let’s break down the origins, modern applicability, and practical advantages of MIL and MOA with the precision we expect from our rifles, and not leave ourselves saying “the wind screwed us” again.

Rifle Scopes NX8 1-8 Dissapointing?

S
I have an ATACR 1-8 and really like it (really like the new Fc-Dmx reticle). I’m wanting to outfit another 16” AR and really want another one .., but don’t want pay ATACR money though.

I really only use it on 8 power to be honest. How disappointed will I be with the NX8? I’ve read the eye box is horrible, 1 power is horrible ect ect ect

MTA in nYC

M
So after crying for years they are broke and seeing their redistribution congestion pricing plans go down the drain what is their next move.To give FREE MTA cards to teenagers in an attempt to, get this now, stop them from turnstile jumping and evading fares.You cannot make this shit up. We are now overpopulated with low life irresponsible losers who the government cant or wont control but would rather appease with other peoples money.I am betting by 2050 we will be a European/SouthAmerican socialist style nation.

Sidearms & Scatterguns I really like this safety

wvfarrier
I saw a "shielded" 1911 safety on an Atlas and decided to try one on a regular 1911. Wow! This thing is great, it allows me to hit the safety without needing to be as precise on my thumb placement. It feels a bit like the safety on a sig sao. This one is DLC coated. It also rides high and allows for an immediately high grip. It does slightly interfere with the rear cocking serrstions but thats too be expected.

One small nit pick.
I wish it used a King style extended hammer pin.

Almost makes you wonder if it’s not eldest son being sold by some anti-2A group, considering the price and limited quantity per order, and country of origin. lol

That little voice

M
Does anyone else have that little voice inside their head thats saying'They will never allow Trump to win?" I am hearing it louder and louder now. When Joe was in there even before his debate performance I knew something was up but didnt think they would flip to Hairyass that quickly.They knew Joe might have lost all 50 states they way things were going so they were relying on one of Trumps legal cases to derail him.When that unraveled the Crooks maybe was a surprise but maybe not either way he failed so they pulled the rug out from under Joe and now Cumallova is in.What bothers me is they do internal polls so they kinda have an idea what will work or what may work OR what they will do to get it to work.I just dont see the real people behind the election letting Trump get anywheres near the WH not even if he pays for the tour.I hope I am wrong but since they were totally caught off guard in 2016 they have upped their game and the Repubs and RINOS are just sucking wind.

Snoop Dogg Carries the Olympic Torch Before Opening Ceremony in Paris

PatMiles

Snoop Dogg is seemingly everywhere during the Paris Olympics, but on Friday morning you could catch him carrying the Olympic torch ahead of the opening ceremony.
He was one of the final torch bearers of the Olympic flame, which was lit in April in Greece and slowly has journeyed toward Paris since. Snoop Dogg’s leg was in Saint-Denis, a suburb of Paris.
In an interview earlier this week, the multihyphenate expressed gratitude toward the U.S. and France for the opportunity.
“I look at this as a prestigious honor and something I truly respect. I would have never dreamed of nothing like this,” he said. “I’m going to be on my best behavior. I’m going to be on my best athleticism. I’ll be able to breathe slow to walk fast and hold the torch with a smile on my face, because I realize how prestigious this event is.”
Snoop Dogg is in Paris to help cover the Games for NBC, part of the U.S. broadcaster’s bet to boost ratings by infusing coverage with pop culture.

Top Tier Scope for 6.4# .300 PRC

O
I am looking for a top tier piece of glass to complete my custom 6.4# .300 PRC built on a Defiance AnTi action. This rifle will primarily be used for backpack elk hunting in the mountains. I just purchased a ZCO 5-27 intending to put it on this rifle. While the scope is awesome, it is way too big and heavy. I'm going to return it and try something else. I am currently waffling between a NX8 4-32 or an S&B PMII 3-20. The NX8 is lighter, cheaper, and has better magnification range. Presumably, the S&B has better glass and has a smaller form factor. Is it worth an extra 4 ounces for the S&B? They likely both have bomb proof reliability. Which of those scopes would the Hide recommend and what other options should I be looking at? Is the March 4.5-28 a viable alternative? My ideal list of requirements is below.

Weight- <32 ounces
Ideal mag range- 5-25x
FFP
Target turrets with capped/ lockable windage
Illumination is required
Reticle that allows me to hold for wind
