Short ar....somthing i can live without

I like short rifles, have more than I would like but not willing to deal with more paperwork to transfer them/sell them, but for my SHTF use I intend a 20” AR carry handle w/ a 2-8x35 Burris or a 12.5” with a 4x ACOG.

5.56 62gr with either give me 0-600 yards no problem and with my body size the 20” fits perfectly - lets just say I C-clamp SR25/M110 Quadrails with ease - The other shorties, meh, its fun when the muzzle brake bros aren’t tuggin each other and I whip out ol Nosebleed-51 (8” .308 shooting some pissin hawt reloads, 125gr, just pure flashbang to clear my area at the range).

Short guns are cool and useful IF configured correctly. Suppressed, Red dot, maybe a magnifier and a WL. And kept on a diet they are pleasant pack guns and imo anything under 12.5” - far as 5.56,7.62- is just gimmicky in my uneducated opinion.
(Pic shows Nosebleed-51, the bane of many range trips but sure is neat)

I used to have a .375 H&H that I’d bring to the range for similar purposes, but your method costs less to shoot and is easier on the shoulder. I don’t have the .375, so something like this or a PSA 12.5” .308 might be a fun way to tell the guy in the next lane that he’s being obnoxious.

I remember $0.26 cents/gallon 🫤
Omaha Nebraska.......... gas wars........$0.19
Laying on the deck(?) of the back window above the seat of dad's 64 Buick LeSabre with the 310 Wildcat engine, watching the lights of the city fade off into the distance
why the hell do I remember that when I can't remember important shit like birthdays and the thing the wife told me to make sure I do before I go to bed tonight.😔

Rifle Scopes Vortex RG3 6-36x56, Element Theos 6-36x56 and Zeiss LRP S3 6-36x56 Review

4-24x like the new smaller razor Gen 3?

If it’s similarly a little lighter and more compact than it’s razor competitor, that would be another winner for them.

But they already have the 4-25x nexus. Which fits the bill, just with worse glass
It's probably the new 2-10 that's popped up on Instagram.

Why are AR15s so difficult to shoot for the average shooter?

But lash is a pretty fair shooter, eh? In the hands of others, does it still shoot well? I would guess yes, but not as tight/consistent on target. From the shooter's fundamentals.
Sometimes I’m a fair shooter. Then I did add an SSA trigger as a token to its ability. But, as was said just recently in this thread, I’m glad that guys do have their basic ARs, even if they can only hit minute of pie plate at 100 yards.

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

I just watched a friend of mine (77 yo with cancer) go through the process of "actively dying". I found nothing particularly funny-awesome about that shit. I guess I am just too soft for the hide.

Well, I find it awesome to see a true traditional marriage. A lifetime commitment till death do they part. 81 years together is impressive. I've been told that when your body is going through the dying process, the final sense to shut off is your hearing. The last sound he heard before meeting God, was his wife's voice. The same voice he's known for 81 years. So yeah, I do find that awesome.

Why are AR15s so difficult to shoot for the average shooter?

Lots of guys I know have bought the Bushmaster or the M&P15 and never upgraded. Same old crappy trigger and barrel. They are Camp 1 all day.
I have a stock American Eagle AR15. Base model, made by Armalite. It is topped with a 1-6 vortex Strike Eagle. It outshoots a number of your Camp 2 guys using just XM193. I’ve done it. Is it precision? I guess not, but it gets the job done.

I got lucky.

Accessories WTT or Sell Geissele Super V Single Stage Triggers

WTT a couple of lightly used Super V Triggers for Geissele SSA-E. Would sell for $165 each.

The Super V is no longer made, but here is a description I found on-line:

The single-stage Geissele Super-V trigger, a non-adjustable trigger designed exclusively for Viking Tactics. It safely provided a smooth average trigger pull of 5.25 pounds, with a clean break and a really nice reset. This is not a target trigger, per se; rather, it’s a battle trigger that offers target quality and ability with unquestioned reliability.
