NM SB 279 New Mexico Tells Colorado to Hold My Beer

Well just finished reading SB 279 which has been introduced in the NM Senate. and the gun grabbing commies in Santa Fe are hoping to outdo the commie's in CO. Basically outlaws and gas operated weapons and would require SA pistols to have a fixed magazine. In addition, current owners would be required among other things to register them. Funny thing the sponsors of this legislation are all dumber than a box of rocks and have trouble putting a single sentence together no less write this legislation.

Optics SOLD...SOLD...Tangent Theta 5-25x56 Gen2XR

Tangent Theta 5-25x56 Gen2XR reticle, excellent condition, caps, manual, box. It is fantastic, but I'm hooked on the floating center dot reticles and I can't afford to get the Gen3XR..... $3300.00 shipped in CONUS. Mount not included. PP friends or Zelle. No trades unless it's a super like new Nightforce 7-35x56 ATACR F1 Mil-C.

What's the deal with "Aid to Ukraine?"

Recently, I've seen a lot of our fellow "Bear Pitters" kvetch a lot about all the $$$ going to aid The Ukraine. Just so that I confirm my understanding of the issues, I have a couple of questions:

1) Main concern - Is the issue that we should be spending those $$$ for US concerns and not "foreign" ones (i.e. "America First"), or is it deeper than that?

2) Why did the Biden Administration put so much of our $$$ into Ukraine spending? Were they getting some kind of Payola/Graft in return? Was Hunter getting his "10% for the 'Big Guy' or something?" Were they counting on USA based Ukrainians to help them win in an election? Or, perhaps, was it simply to support a group of people that opposed Putin & the Russians? I guess I just can't wrap my head around why the Biden clan was so adamant about sending all our $$$ over there. How did it benefit them?

Elysium AK-47 FINISHED WITH VIDEO

Work has begun on the Elysium AK-47 as used by Matt Damon. Parts are arriving and I am beginning fabrication after a successful proof of concept for the digital round counter.

What I'm building.

maxresdefault.jpg


Successful proof of concept for the digital round counter. A lot of fabrication before I decide on a final design, especially the placement of the counter. Possible placement on the side of the receiver or mounted on a 45 degree offset picatinny rail adapter.

Night Vision l3 lwts clip on thermal

Used l3 lwts Purchased new and used a couple times a year, has one dead pixel zone that is visible when used as a clip on; solid and flexible unit.
$5000 or reasonable offer
L3Harris Light Weapon Thermal Sight (LWTS) is a handheld and weapon-mounted thermal weapon sight. The thermal imaging capability of the LWTS allows for long wave infrared observation and target identification under adverse conditions including light rain, smoke, light snow, and low light to total darkness. The LWTS utilizes leading edge 17 micron technology in a 640×480 uncooled microbolometer. The high resolution display, combined with state of the art image processing and electronics provide exceptional imagery and long mission run times on a single battery load. The LWTS is highly versatile, being able to deploy as a stand-alone thermal weapon scope or a clip-on thermal weapon sight in front of an existing day optic. As part of the current USSOCOM contract, the LWTS (AN/PAS-13G(V)1) is designed to integrate with weapon systems outfitted with other SOPMOD optics. It is rated as a short range clip on sight that works best with 1-4x optics such as the Aimpoint M68CCO (Comp M4s) and Trijicon ACOG. When paired with another day optic, the LWTS produces less than 2 MOA shift in point of impact. However, the LWTS can be used alone with its internal reticles. This gives operators extreme nighttime capability when paired with head-mounted night vision goggles. The LWTS is intended for light weapons utilizing the standard issue 5.56x45mm and 7.62x51mm NATO cartridge. The size and weight make it ideal for tactical small arms such as the FN SCAR-MK16/17, M4/M16, SR25, and other 5.56/7.62 platforms. The LWTS is powered by a removable battery cartridge loaded with four AA batteries. The system comes with a spare cartridge so that batteries can be changed quickly. It is optimized to provide the best image when paired with 4x magnification, but can be used with scopes up to 5-6x without much loss of image fidelity due to its native 640×512 sensor. This high resolution sensor provides incredibly crisp detail and shading for rich images and easier target identification. Another useful feature is the RS-170 Real Time Video In/Out for remote viewing when attached or detached from a weapon system. Export of Thermal Imaging Equipment or related accessories (such as manuals) is strictly regulated by the US Department of State in accordance with the guidelines of the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR). It is a major crime to ship or carry US manufactured thermal imaging devices outside the borders of the United States, punishable by fines and prison sentences. Ignorance of these regulations will not hold up in court.
Buyer pays shipping, item will only be shipped to a US address

What Vises Are You Using (Barrel or otherwise)

I use two - a (not made in China) Wilton Bullet Vise and an Orange/Area419 Setup. Adding in the Orange with the Area419 package really made tasks like removing/installing muzzle devices much easier since I don't have a dedicated barrel vise.

Before I bought the Orange, I almost bought the Short Action Customs Kit several different times. Has anyone used it? It looks very nice and not too expensive for what you get.

Here's mine:

Best Budget .30 can

Ive got a handful of cans everything from Rimfire to .223 to .30 to .458 but I don't like swapping cans on and off so I'm looking for a good can to just leave on a 8" 300blk AR for supers and subs... only real requirements are 1.70" diameter or smaller and $650ish or less
Thought about a polonium 30 or a direct thread omega or maybe a lahar30 but never held, heard, or been around any of them.
The .30 can I already have is a magnus and it's awesome but I don't want to spend that much on another and it's too big to fit inside the handguard of my 300 anyways

TheHide.TV Episode One of the Everyday Sniper Podcast

New Season, new start to the podcast,

I was damaging controlling why the Live Stream feeds were crashing on Facebook and X and I missed a bunch of episodes. Now we are ready to return with the weekly show. We'll have new guests coming up really soon.

Welcome to the Everyday Sniper Podcast, yes the music got overwritten so I wasn't about to play it. I thought I had this sorted out but apparently I missed something. Damn Updates !

In this episode I want to catch you up as to why I missed a few episode over the last month or so. I was actually damage controlling the video for simulcasting to other places. I can send this Sniper's Hide and TheHide.TV easy enough, but the signal was crashing.

In this episode I talk,

Going Live with Training & Firearms

Western Hunter Ultimate Challenge Match

Future Interviews on the way.

Gear reviews, We have the Eotech Vudu 3-9x here along with a host of other products to talk about.

6mm Arc Project !

Thanks for the patience of me getting my shit together. It was a process and I had to follow the process to try and keep things stable. I feel I am stable now, other than potential conflicts with my home internet.

Head over to Hide TV for more videos, articles, contests, etc.

Law enforcement protecting the illegal lawn crews- with state sponsored violence

Login to view embedded media
Don’t try and expand your lawn service into new territory that is currently controlled by the illegal crews run by cartels and coyotes.
Not without paying some protection/ bribe money up front to the local constabulary
You won’t just be arrested on false charges , o no they will boot your door and let their attack dogs maul you for 15 minutes.
Gonna have to write a lot of tickets to replace the bribe revenue that protecting illegals has brought in . Like more than the $9 billion tickets bring in now
