Firearms WTS Cheytac M300 Intervention

Selling my M300 Cheytac chambered in .375 Cheytac. This was done by the Cheytac factory in Kryptek . Has a Stiller Tac 408 action that’s been upgraded ( extractor and firing pin). Comes with the original Kryptek finished factory 30” barrel, has 700 rounds down the tube and still shoots super accurate. Comes with an installed custom 37” bartlein barrel chambered by BillyGoatMachine, 420 rounds down the tube and shoots super accurate with the 400 grain Lazers. There are scuffs and what not on the rifle which I tried to capture in the below pics.

I will include ~ 75 pieces 2x fired Peterson brass that will be cleaned and annealed using an AMP.

I have won a few matches with this rifle and will include all data including reamer print from Manson. I am selling because I really don’t need 3 heavy class guns ( my other two are both .416 variants).

Scope, scope mount and bipod are NOT included but can be negotiated with the sale of the rifle. Will not separate.

Asking $5500 plus shipping ( which can be agreed upon, willing to hand deliver)

ONLY TRADES:

AI rifles (AXSR, AXMC, AX-50 plus/minus cash on my side depending on configuration)
Hensoldt Spotter 45 or 60
Premium RFB

FDA Approves First Oral Pill Made from Human Poop...NO SHIT!


On Wednesday, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) revealed that it had authorized the first pill taken orally made from donated human feces.

An enema-based medicine was cleared for use in December 2022, making this the second treatment produced from human feces to receive approval.

The FDA has given its approval for the pills, Vowst, to be used by adults aged 18 and older who have a history of repeated infections with Clostridium difficile, a kind of bacteria that can cause severe cases of nausea, cramps, and diarrhea.


Read the news release below:

Today, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved Vowst, the first fecal microbiota product that is taken orally. Vowst is approved for the prevention of recurrence of Clostridioides difficile (C. difficile) infection (CDI) in individuals 18 years of age and older, following antibacterial treatment for recurrent CDI.
“Today’s approval provides patients and healthcare providers a new way to help prevent recurrent C. difficile infection,” said Peter Marks, M.D., Ph.D., director of the FDA’s Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research. “The availability of a fecal microbiota product that can be taken orally is a significant step forward in advancing patient care and accessibility for individuals who have experienced this disease that can be potentially life-threatening.”
CDI, caused by the bacterium C. difficile, is one of the most common healthcare-associated infections in the United States and is associated with 15,000 to 30,000 deaths annually. The human intestinal tract contains millions of microorganisms, often referred to as the “gut flora,” or “gut microbiome.” Certain situations, such as taking antibiotics to treat an infection, may change the balance of microorganisms in the gut, allowing C. difficile to multiply and release toxins causing diarrhea, abdominal pain and fever, and in some cases, organ failure and death. Other risk factors that can increase the risk of CDI include age over 65 years, hospitalization, nursing home residency, a weakened immune system and/or a previous history of CDI. After recovering from CDI, individuals may get the infection again—often multiple times—a condition known as recurrent CDI. The risk of additional recurrences increases with each infection and treatment options for recurrent CDI are limited. The administration of fecal microbiota is thought to facilitate restoration of the gut flora to prevent further episodes of CDI.
The dosing regimen of Vowst is four capsules taken once a day, orally, for three consecutive days. Vowst contains live bacteria and is manufactured from human fecal matter that has been donated by qualified individuals. Although the donors and donated stool are tested for a panel of transmissible pathogens, Vowst may carry a risk of transmitting infectious agents. It is also possible for Vowst to contain food allergens; the potential for Vowst to cause adverse reactions due to food allergens is unknown.
The safety of Vowst was evaluated in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, clinical study and an open-label clinical study conducted in the U.S. and Canada. The participants had recurrent CDI, were 48 to 96 hours post-antibacterial treatment and their symptoms were controlled. Across both studies, 346 individuals 18 years of age and older with recurrent CDI received all scheduled doses of Vowst. In an analysis among 90 Vowst recipients, when compared to 92 placebo recipients, the most commonly reported side effects by Vowst recipients, which occurred at a greater frequency than reported by placebo recipients, were abdominal bloating, fatigue, constipation, chills and diarrhea.
The effectiveness of Vowst was evaluated in the randomized, placebo-controlled clinical study in which 89 participants received Vowst and 93 participants received placebo. Through 8 weeks after treatment, CDI recurrence in Vowst-treated participants was lower compared to placebo-treated participants (12.4% compared to 39.8%).
The application was granted Priority Review, Breakthrough Therapy and Orphan designations.
The FDA granted approval of Vowst to Seres Therapeutics Inc.

Sitting in the hospital, debating my next purchase.

Well boys, my wife gave birth to our first kid, a Son. 8lbs 1 oz and 21”.

It was an amazing process and I’m excited to move forward in life with her and our new son.

I’d like to purchase his first rifle. I want something like a savage rascal/ keystone cricket. A youth size rifle that a kid can get used to shouldering and using irons with. I’d like something that’s a bit nicer, something he can pass along to his son in the future. Maybe a 457 scout or similar?

What have you guys gone with for those of you that did similar?

Smosh's Package, Benefit for Sgt Josh Clark

Hi Guys,

Hogs helping Hogs American Sniper's has this benefit for Sgt Josh Clark we want to bring to your attention www.americansnipers.org

SMOSHflyer_4a.png

FIGHT CARD, MAIN EVENT:

Josh Clark (USA) vs. Cancer (Hell).


Given the currently running benefit raffle (3/31/23 – 5/26/23) for Sgt Josh Clark (USMC) organized by Standing Offhand and hosted on the americansnipers.org website, I felt it would be helpful to provide some background on who you’re supporting through the raffle. If I could impress upon you how I know Josh, I would but that’s impossible. This is the best I can do… -Jeff

Josh is a Marine Scout/Sniper. I met him in Sept 2004 when my Marine Corps unit relieved his at the end of their combat tour south of Baghdad. They had spent the hot horrible summer there and dealt with a lot that year. This was during a high point for the insurgency and their area of operation, the one we were now occupying, was known as the “Triangle of Death.” This was due to the number of kidnappings and executions in that region over the previous 2 or so years. A lot of movement, redirecting, and adaptation was taking place for US forces there and it was shortly after Josh’s unit departed that Operation Phantom Fury took place in Fallujah.

Josh returned home to Camp LeJeune where he finished his 10 year service to the Marine Corps in 2005. In Jan of 2006, the 2 of us found ourselves together again in the Worldwide Personal Protective Services course for Triple Canopy, Inc. (TC). This is a security contracting company servicing Dept. of State and Dept. of Defense contracts for security services around the world. He and I went to work for TC over the next year and a half, finding ourselves rooming together at the US Embassy Office in Basra, Iraq. Both of us were snipers for TC, he on the mobile side and I on fixed site. This meant that Josh was accompanying dignitaries from the US Embassy during meetings off our compound with various officials of the Iraqi government. These were typically at some large building somewhere in the city with a title of, “Ministry of (whatever)” on the front. My job was to help manage the physical security of the embassy grounds, including a 140-man Peruvian guard force, while also performing the sniper job on the property. As summer 2006 rolled in, the activity level of the insurgency increased: their rocket and mortar attacks became more frequent and with higher volume, we experienced small arms fire from small groups of fighters from across a river, and a very small number of Iraqi workers who came and went from our compound actually disappeared. It got to the point where all mobile operations where our diplomats traveled outside the walls, ceased. The only meetings allowed to be held were now conducted only at the US Embassy Office and those Iraqi officials requesting a meeting had to come to us. Our workforce inside the compound effectively doubled with all the mobile guys now participating in fixed site security. And because of this, Josh and I spent more time together working.

Because we were also roommates, we got to actually know each other. I knew his wife’s name and heard her voice when they talked. He learned the same about me. We talked about kids and future ambitions and what we wanted to do with the money we were making as contractors. We conducted training on the small range we had at the back of the compound and drove to Kuwait once to zero rifles at longer distances. I got to know Josh as a man and a human, not as just a callsign (Smosh) or a voice at the other end of a radio. I bought a hunting bow online and had the whole kit shipped to me there, arrows, target, and all. He thought I was fucking crazy but we all did somewhat outlandish things in order to stave off boredom and mischief. We hit the gym; A LOT. Everyone was getting damned strong because all we had there was a gym, a chow hall, and a bed. It’s not like we could go to a movie or hit a bar on the weekends. We found entertainment in what we could do, what we could control, and what we could get away with.

Spring of ’07 I rotated home. Typically we’d spend 3 months in-country with one month home. This time around I decided I wasn’t going back unless I absolutely had to, the emotional toll being too great on my wife, a pile of young children, and me. So I went back to my actual career and applied to the Phoenix Police Dept for the 2nd time in my life. Actually, it was the PD in Tempe AZ I specifically applied to but I was aggressively recruited into Phoenix by a retired Marine Master Sergeant and Phoenix PD Lt. with a mission of grabbing returning Jarheads by the neck once we got there. I had a very small window to get hired before having to go back to Iraq and somehow, they got it done. The Marine Corps Mafia was alive and well, both within the Phoenix Police Dept and in the civilian communities of the Phoenix valley.

Josh stayed on with TC for another 9 years and wound up instructing for them in Louisiana. He returned to Iraq several times and rose to the equivalent of Battalion Cmdr as the Project Manager at the Baghdad worksite. Following his time with TC, Josh made it home for good and joined the East Baton Rouge Sheriff’s Office where he spent the next 4 years as a firearms instructor, narcotics agent, and swat team member. There’s no doubt he used all he’d learned overseas, both in combat and as a contractor, to rise quickly as an incredible resource. Kudos to EBRSO for recognizing what they had in front of them: the goofy tall dude with a disarming smile and accent but who possessed experience and leadership ability they had probably never seen before. Josh is (still) someone I’d take 2 steps back from and shoot 3 times before tying up with. But he’s also the guy I’d follow through a door without question. The photos of him in a bump helmet and life vest while burning around the southern Louisiana waterways with a rifle are inspiring and joyous. I see life and gratitude in his eyes when I look at those pictures. There’s the embrace of being home and a well-adjusted air about him, probably in good part due to the relief that there weren’t things inside him to fight. Going to combat and/or living within an active combat zone takes its toll (as we all know) but none of us knows exactly how we’re going to respond to it, what we’re going to bring back, or what, however small, is going to put up a fight. There’s a lot of anxiety waiting to see what rears its ugly head, and how it might affect those we love. Josh was relieved, at least to a degree, that whatever he brought home with him was manageable. It’s clearly evident in his eyes and smile.

His run with EBRSO didn’t last long and he found himself once again headed to the middle east, this time to Amman, Jordan. It’s funny how this hell hole literally on the other side of the world and with whom we could not be more culturally different from, draws us back like some kind of karmatic fucking magnet. I know: that’s not even a word but it’s accurate nonetheless. A different security company needed a director of training there and he fit the bill. He also fell in love there, with a kitten. Yeah, you read that right, a fucking cat. Josh jumped through all the hoops, filled out all the paperwork, and made all the calls in order to bring some pussy home to the US on a commercial flight. I guess that makes it, a legal resident?? “Mr. Fred” resides with him in his apartment to this day: who knew… He’s flat-faced, has a porn-stache, and his whiskers point straight out the front of his face. Josh loves the damned thing and has a picture of him as the lock screen on his phone.

This brings us to within a year of this writing. His last work was chasing executive protection details around the US and it was during this time that he developed some health problems and was misdiagnosed last May. That has since turned into stage 4 colon and liver cancer. Shit got real, real fast. He is currently undergoing chemotherapy treatment, both infusion and oral. He’s had 4 infusions and he’s been responding well to it: his docs are scheduling liver surgery within the month followed by more to address his colon and lymphatic system. It helps tremendously that Josh is in excellent physical, psychological, and emotional shape. Never one to let any of those things slide, he maintained his fitness through his previous symptoms and kept working as if it would all pass. This is paying dividends now and his treatment has been aggressive. In my own speaking with medical professionals, most of whom I’m very close with, some of this positivity is likely a coping mechanism. There is sure to exist a certain degree of fear in facing something that can kill him but that he cannot see or actively fight in front of him, with his hands and all his acquired skills. There’s a loss of control as if all he can do is wait and hope. But therein lies his biggest ally, his greatest strength: his Faith. Josh is a convicted Christian man. It is important to him and sustains him in his most difficult and highest-consequence mission to date. And while he may be coping with all of this harsh realization and percentages and alternate outcomes to the life he had planned only 4 months ago, he also knows that at the end of the day his book has already been written, despite the fear that may accompany it. He has trust. Trust in the God that brought him home from Kosovo and Iraq, multiple times. Trust in the gift of watching his boys turn into men and enlist in the US Army, one of them giving him a grandson and granddaughter. Trust in the outpouring of support coming directly from the men he’s fought alongside and whom have all placed their lives in each other’s hands. Josh believes and knows he is loved. There is no rifle he’s ever shouldered as powerful as this one.

If some of this has touched your heart or caused your own reflection to stare you in the face, I encourage you to help Josh yourself. He represents thousands of humans in this country alone who face these circumstances every year so think of this as an opportunity. This is a way to demonstrate the phrase, “thank you for you service.” IN NO WAY is this a guilt trip, a tactic to play on your heartstrings, or a way to say this is anyone’s obligation. I am asking for your help, for you to give. But there is no judgement here. Josh is a very dear and close friend and despite the less-than-awesome circumstances he finds himself in, it is important to me that you know who he is.

Quality Junk Rifle... Kinda

Question for the Hide? I am feeling the need for a Semi-Auto in .308

I have the .556 and precision rifle and pistol stuff covered.

Do not need precision accuracy but good god I cant abide a shit shooter

Ammo will be primarily FGMM 168

Realistic range is 400 and in

Set and forget optic with at least 5mil ...no interest in dialing or repeatability

10x optic is plenty... could just as easily use 6 or 4


.

Optics Vudu 5-25

Great scope same as lowlight / Frank runs on his Vudoo trainer.

Selling to get something with less mag for hunting.

Priced cheap because I bought it from first owner , it has a ding in the objective that they didn’t disclose. I didn’t pull cap off and see till too late. Ding is minor it is way forward of the glass , seems like it is on a ring that may unscrew.

$975 shipped , insurance if wanted is on buyer

Superlative Arms adjustable gas block gas tube hole isn’t Milspec height?

I was chatting with one of my range buddies about a build I’m doing and I mentioned that I was probably going to use a Superlative Arms adjustable gas block.

“Dude, don’t. Those Superlative gas blocks have the gas tube hole higher than a milspec gas block which causes the gas tube to enter the upper receiver at a slight downward angle. That will cause the gas tube to rub a lot on the BCG gas key and wear out the gas tube and gas key super fast. The gas adjustment mechanism doesn’t allow them to place the gas tube hole at normal height so they shift it up slightly and hope people don’t notice.”

Is this true? If so, why doesn’t Superlative Arms make a gas tube with the proper bend for their gas block? I emailed Superlative Arms about this but received no response.

Is there a spray to add protection layer to over Cerakote?

Hello,

I just received the ACC Elite Chassis System in Titanium Blue.

I think that most of you are going to say just use it the way it is, but when I first get things, I like to baby my new stuff and take decent care of it.

For those that are like me, is there something that I can spray over it to give some added protection? Such as some sort of clear spray?

Legally, we should be able to shoot people like this just for genetic cleansing. Sounds a bit much, but then maybe you haven't seen the clip.....

Choosing a optic under $700

Hey guys I’m in a bit of a pickle choosing a scope for my new cz 22lr mtr and my wife will be getting a new 22 aswell.

Mostly shooting a little over 100 yards in the back yard but we also take the bigger rifles out to 700ish yards every now and then so I’d like to get scopes with similar reticles and adjustments.

I have an older Cronus 4.5-27 on my 6.5 and she has a pst gen 2 5-25
I have another rifle with a pst gen 2 5-25 aswell and I like it.

Now my initial thought was just get a couple more pst gen 2 but I started reading and lots of people recommended lots of other things over the pst gen 2

My current 22lr toy has a argos btr 6-24 and I have another one of those sitting here as my wife started with that on her big rifle but was not a fan as it wasn’t clear enough for her out at 600-700 yards. I don’t think Id buy another argos

I don’t love the Cronus because seems a bit sharp and not the best adjustments in my opinion.

Because I don’t shoot out to 1000y and my eyes aren’t very good the pst gen2 seems about the same as the Cronus. I’ll need to pull it out of the safe and let my wife compare she can probably tell me the truth

So in this price range what do you recommend the cheaper the better but I do still want a quality optic.

These gun will probably be my heaviest used guns since they are quite and easy to just grab and shoot. My savage mk2 with the argos gets beat on because we toss it around so everyone gets to shoot some.

Locking turrets are a plus but not necessary. A simpler reticle is also nice
Illuminated is also preferable for shooting at dusk. I should also mention we tend to like a lot of magnification but need a manageable optic. I had a razor gen2 4.5-27 and never mounted it or used it as it was just too big and didn’t make sense for me.

Hopefully there is enough info in this post

Auto shutoff cars.....how stupid.

I had this post up and going on another forum. Interested in seeing the point of view from the inmates here.


So have the wives car today, and at a stop the car will turn itself off. I HATE THIS FEATURE. First off if you are like what I think most of us are, the car turning off at a stop is something that happened far too often in the junk boxes I bet a great deal of us drove. Foot on the gas, clutch and brake is something that can be done to keep that clapped out hunk of junk running. So when this stupid thing turns off my heart will skip a beat. Push the little "A" button and that garbage stops.

But when you do it will still tell you your "MPG as it was".

.2 gallons per hour. Now math has never been my strength but let me try to figure this all out.

.2 GPH, that will be 5 hours of idle for me to use $3.18 worth of gas. FIVE HOURS.
.2 of an hour is 12 minutes....i think.... So I will use .2 of a gal every 12 minutes....ok lets flow with that.

According to google the average US stoplight is between 45 and 120 seconds. So lets say one minute.

I am going to stop here as this is just making me more and more angry. This is stupid. What is the wear and tear on the battery and starter. And then the costs on said battery and starter. All to save less gas then I spill when I fill up the lawn mower.

Canadian folk singer-songwriter Gordon Lightfoot died in Toronto on Monday at the age of 84 after a long and storied career.
One of Canada’s most beloved artists having written songs that documented the country’s history and culture, the musician reportedly died at the hospital. Per the Associated Press (AP):
Considered one of the most renowned voices to emerge from Toronto’s Yorkville folk club scene in the 1960s, Lightfoot went on to record 20 studio albums and pen hundreds of songs, including “Carefree Highway” and “Sundown.”
Once called a “rare talent” by Bob Dylan, dozens of artists have covered his work, including Elvis Presley, Barbra Streisand, Harry Belafonte, Johnny Cash, Anne Murray, Jane’s Addiction and Sarah McLachlan.
Most of his songs are deeply autobiographical with lyrics that probe his own experiences in a frank manner and explore issues surrounding the Canadian national identity.
Lightfoot rose to prominence with his 1970 hit “If You Could Read My Mind” and went on to create such classics like the 1975 song “The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald,” which commemorated the sinking of the bulk freighter SS Edmund Fitzgerald on Lake Superior on November 10, 1975.
“I simply write the songs about where I am and where I’m from,” he said. “I take situations and write poems about them.”
“I just like to stay there and be a part of the totem pole and look after the responsibilities I’ve acquired over the years,” he said in a 2001 interview.
“He was married three times and had six children,” noted the Washington Post. “Throughout his life, he struggled with alcoholism, had difficulty maintaining close relationships and revealed in a biography that he paid a price for letting his career take over his personal life. Ultimately he sobered up, married happily, and continued touring and writing songs into his 80s.”
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau hailed Lightfoot following news of his death on Monday.
“We have lost one of our greatest singer-songwriters. Gordon Lightfoot captured our country’s spirit in his music – and in doing so, he helped shape Canada’s soundscape. May his music continue to inspire future generations, and may his legacy live on forever. To his family, friends, and many fans across the country and around the world: I’m keeping you in my thoughts at this difficult time,” tweeted Trudeau.
