Out of all fuel options, diesel has the most energy content per gallon. It has a longer shelf life than gasoline, but for long-term storage, propane is king. Do you NEED to bury the tank? That seems excessive, but I’m in rural Alabama and can have a backhoe dig me a hole for $200, so whadda I know?

I'm up in Tn. You can't just burry an above ground tank.

I've had 2 fires on the property since we've had it. One caused by a neighbor being an idiot and another by a fire bug running around setting brush fires. I'd rather not have 1000 gal of propane in close proximity to the house above ground.

$13k would be a pass for me, this has been in the works so long iray has a 10um clip on coming with LRF / ballistics onboard too.

At this point one of the only thing the Nvision has in my opinion is optical collimation. US core is great to have too

Click to expand...

So the legit collimated clip on part is what is most important to me along with the ability to take high magnification.

If it does that, it'll beat anything Iray puts out. The biggest issue with all the iray and others is the lack of ability to truly collimate them (digital adjustments are too much vs 1/10th mil ect) and them actually being able to take 18x magnification without looking at minecraft creatures.

If they can solve that, or give me a cooled unit for way under 60k, then I'd say it'll be worth it.

At 13k for no on board LRF and ballistics, I'll pick up a ELR.

While I believe that most striker pistols are perfectly safe for combat/ duty use, this does help reinforce my belief that hammer fired pistols are superior. In essence we are already carrying single action pistols with some striker fired designs so I’d rather just carry a 1911 or 2011 cocked and locked, or what I believe to be the most reliable pistol ever devised, the HK USP in that same fashion. These other videos are pretty silly though, The SIG 320 design is inherently flawed and unsafe due to its fully pre-cocked striker, lack of a trigger dingus, trigger and trigger guard dimensions, as well as a potential design flaw. You have to bypass the trigger dingus of a Glock to make it function as they demonstrate in the video and inadvertent contact with the trigger is highly unlikely to make that happen on a Glock.

Brother a 1911/2011 design is my favorite design and I build a bunch for friends and family but it has a problem of hammer follow you just don’t normally get with a Glock so o can’t say it’s superior for reliability. However if built with the best tool steel parts it comes damm close

As to the USP. Just freaking bulletproof but I hate how high they sit in your hand

Sig 320 I won’t allow on range I run. Just too many instances of bang for no legitimate explanation. Shame because another bulletproof weapon is a Sig 226

Both are excellent in their own right, depending on your priorities and preferences. I see you like the Lord’s reticle in MSR2 so congratulations are in order….

If you go with the S&B make sure to get the DT2+ turrets as they are by FAR the best option. Glass in Schmidt scopes is always very good so it’s a great option even if the design is older. I hear the new 6-36 is even better optically.

The M7 can be a very nice option but can have a wide variance in optical performance in my experience. I have several and a couple of them look excellent and a couple are not as good. Not worth paying full price for new but if purchased used for the price you mention, it will not restrict your shooting in the least.

I’ve had or currently own every scope considered mid tier and alpha class. I can honestly report NONE of them made me a better shooter, but some are more enjoyable to use than others.

I love the Tangent Theta and it is great in every way, except I wish they would put in the MSR2 reticle. No matter what, it seems to be a compromise at some juncture so I just pick my favorite features and go from there.

Is this the borrowing money or Nu-kraine V3 thread?
Big reveal, Ukraine aint gonna be paying shit back.

In my experience, creep is movement before the sear is released. I’ve heard it called pre-play or pre-travel but seems most often called creep.

Movement after is over travel.

Pardon me stating the obvious to many here but there does seem to be some confusion about this in some of the posts in this thread.

I’m not verifying the total precision for the descriptions in this link but you may find it helpful.

Trigger Definitions: Take-Up, Creep, Break, Overtravel, Reset, etc. - Real Gun Reviews

When talking about handgun trigger movements, it’s sometimes hard to keep all the terms and definitions straight. I’ll often see questions like “what’s the difference between take-up and creep?” So this quick-reference article will help you understand the differences and always have the correct...

www.realgunreviews.com

I run TT Diamonds and personally don’t feel the need for over travel but many do like it and we are all entitled to our preferences. I have not experienced any grittiness in my TT triggers. To me, they break very cleanly.

BNA just seems…for ME and me only…too much of a PIA.

Click to expand...

I don’t find TTs to be gritty at all they are very smooth but that is what I did like. The remind me of the electric triggers of the 90s. I love a bit pre travel/ take up and some over travel I also love that I can set my own sear depth. But I concur that those are characteristics that many find annoying. I have always preferred a 2 stage trigger and grew up with Anschutz match triggers. Enjoy the TT, I shot them for many years and have a box of them.

In my state, private party means private. A totally anonymous sale in a parking lot is perfectly legal. Same as a chainsaw or a woodchipper. Way it's supposed to be.

You must live in a free state llike Oklahoma. I must have bought and sold 20 in the parking lot of WalMart in Chickasha.

It still boggles my mind that the announcers never mentioned the wig falling off. I am not a sports guy so I just saw it in a highlight video but sports announcers (in other sports) seem to point out and speculate about everything with close ups and replays. That was the only WNBA event that ever caught my attention and it never caught the announcers.

Was the brass you're using shot in THAT rifle?

The manes of the Hanson Brothers? LOL

Is “horse” considered a color?

Why not use 7mmBR brass and blow your shoulder out to dasher, but have 7mm necks already ?

Have a Premier grip available as well (4.8 oz) if you prefer that grip, $730 for the complete set up.

And it continues....

Lots of finishing touches on the X-Series Magazine Line today and, presto chango, the X2212 is generated. From here, I can change a number and the X2215 gets spit out and I'll post up the trio within another day or so. So, the line is nearly complete and parallel development continues.

Over the last few days, I've been receiving questions via email, this group and a forum about the timeline for Rimfire Bolt Action availability. I'm not yet saying much about the timeline for actions as I continue to focus on the V-Series and X-Series Magazines, Standard M5 and M5x DBMs, Comprehensive Parts Kits, Receiver Wrenches and a few other things.

Having said that, I should be positioned to speak more about the actions within the next 30 days.

Thaks to all who've reached out and please feel free to do so anytime.

That's why. Force you to spend more on metal mags. The old MDT polymer mags had the longest OAL (without modifications) for a long time and were dirt cheap.

Yup. Glad I got 8 of them from Black Fridays lol I wonder if you can do some dremel work on the new ones? That 2.470” is .020” off the lands in my .223 Wylde chamber so would only take a little dremel work to open it up some. Maybe I will buy one on Black Friday and try it.
