Maggie’s Funny & awesome pics, vids and memes thread (work safe, no nudity)

I have to admit i haven't pictured Osama Bin Laden's son quite like this and to top it of runing around with a some Grandma


French Interior Minister Bruno Retailleau has announced that Omar bin Laden was deported for glorifying or inciting terrorism on social media. Bin Laden, who now lives in Qatar after several years in France, has denied that he was behind the posts.

According to Retailleau, "bin Laden cannot return to France, for whatever reason ."

Omar bin Laden, a citizen of Qatar, obtained a residence permit in France in 2016 through his marriage to British woman Jane Felix-Browne, a mother and grandmother with five divorces and more than two decades older than Omar. After the marriage, which attracted considerable media attention when it was confirmed in 2007, she took the Muslim name Zaina Mohamed Al-Sabah. They settled in the town of Domfront-en-Poiraie in Normandy in 2018, where he became an “artist” during the corona lockdown.

Maggie’s Best Guitar Solo

Wow so many greats . I probably forget more names than I can list . Unknowns that live in my soul .
All guys I've seen .
Les Paul
Neil Schonn
Nuno Bettoncourt
John Hodges (Dead Serious) Unknown .
Joe Walsh was a Spiritual awakening when he was in the zone . Maybe the GOAT .
Brad Paisley
Keith Urban
Satriani . Long story short . Had an opportunity to audition as a bass player for Satch . My lack of confidence made me duck out .


Guy named Kelly James from the Dead end kids . Guy was homeless , mentally cooked from drugs . I mean like fucken damaged . We ran in that Philly circle . Would pick him up and feed him now and then , take him to a gig . Put a guitar in this guy's hand and magic happened . This guy and that band were playing in the 70's . First guy to send a guitar around his neck .
Influenced a lot of Easter Coast band like KIX .
Slow Hand is corner stone .
Surprised no one mentioned Dicky Betts .
Brian May is incredibly under appreciated .
Eddy Van Halen .
So many more I can't remember the names . The faces and gigs are still vivid .

Edit: Blues Saraceno , notable mention .
Ritchie Kitzen . Sad that the guy's ego and bad choices got in the way of his art . Truly gifted .
David Gilmore is gifted and an egomaniacal narcissistic fuckin Dbag . Surprised he got as far as he did being such a difficult , contrary , argumentative twat .

PRS Regional Match NM

20220917_112450.jpeg


Little over a month away from the match we still have slots available. If you’re coming from out of town both Bernalillo and Rio rancho NM are about 40 minutes from the range, and have plenty of hotel and food options.

Additionally we will be hosting a zero and dope confirmation on the 1000 yard steel range on Friday from 3-7 pm. If you haven’t shot in the high desert, and are headed to Raton for the PRS match later next month this is an excellent to get out and verify your drop!

Official (DTA) SRS, HTI, Covert, Hunter Thread

I'm going to give F-open class shooting a try with my SRS in 6.5 PRC. I built a front rest that does the necessary moves and complies with the rules. My SRS is 1.8 lbs. Under the limit so everything should be good. The only thing I saw that is problematic is the adjustable rear rest. They use the front rest to adjust left / right / up / down. Hopefully, if I promise not to use the rear adjustment, they will let me shoot.
Anyone ever try this?

Area 419 Zero Press And Reloading Info

OP,

I forget to answer your query on powder. Currently there is no one place I can recommend for powder or primers. They are where you can find them.

But I bought powder & primers in the last few years from:

Gun Broker ( but beware of scammer's)
Direct from Hodgdon
Powder Valley
Graph & Son's

Look for sellers that advertise no Haz Mat fees occasionally , like Natchez Shooter Supply, Brownells and Midway.

For brass I use Starline quite a bit, and Gun Broker for once fired Lake City .223/5.56.

Lapua, Alpha and Peterson Brass are all quite good and quite pricey. And those 3 are almost de rigueur for developing quality long distance loads.

For me I'm old, and no longer formally compete, so Starline Brass (buy direct from them) is my go to source for my "quality loads". But it's a low bar.....
