    Anyone had shoulder surgery?

    I had the biceps tenodesis done. I agree to get the Breg Polar Care Wave it is a life saver. Invest in a sleep system to sleep reclined or plan on little to no sleep for a month or so. Slow down and stay with the program on the PT or you will get to start from scratch again.

    For you Marines.

    I built the 'O' course there next to the bowling alley in January of '87. Went to pick up my son for his Christmas leave in 2017, he was in my barracks next door to my old room. Way too many CAX's in my time there. Way too hot or way too cold.

    Indy Good Samaritan EDC'er Identified as Mr. Elisjsha Dicken

    I read that he got 8 hits out of 10 rounds. Corrected timeline has him dropping the dirt bag in 15 seconds of the first shot. Ten miles from my house so this was literally close to home.

    17 HMR Semi Auto with Dead Air Mask

    I've had the A17 for about 6 years. It is really a tack driver and was used under 100 yards in the Florida forests. It's a very tight shooting rifle even with an el cheapo 3-12 scope. I don't recall ever having a jam or any failure to fire. My only real complaint is the rotary magazine. The...

    Future Dad of a Marine

    Both myself and my wife served in the Corps.... and our 4 boys. Their MOS's range from Airframe mechanic, logistics to the combat arms. My advice is for visitors day when you finally get some time to see him before graduation. On PI, there is always a line out the door for any dining place...

    Marine ROTC

    Where at? I helped out 1stSgt Landrum up in Jacksonville for years. I gave up a week of vacation each year to take 50-100 cadets to Parris Island for a week. It's an awesome program.

    My Savage A17 feeds fine but my buddies doesn't ?

    I have had zero jam issues with mine . I'm wondering if anyone else's A17 throws the brass about 30 ft.

    Georgetown wants you to pay because they owned slaves 180 years ago.

    It really seems like these SJW's are just reincarnations of my ex-wife. The problem of slavery was settled and done a century and a half ago. But they constantly try to bring it up again just to stir things up. I think the US was the first country to abolish slavery. But world wide, we are...

    DB10 6.5 Creedmoor

    I have a DB10 in .308 and it is NOT a sub MOA rifle. Fun to shoot with few reliability issues, but not super accurate. I'm toying with the idea of getting a 6.5 CM barrel and upgrading it just to see what happens.

    Any Love for Spikes Tactical ?

    I just finished a 6.5 Grendel build on a Spikes Tactical lower. This same lower was on a 5.56 upper of mine for years. I never had a complaint about it. They are based in Apopka FL.

    Ghost guns

    I saw a piece from Buzzfeed, so you know that is has a hard left slant, where a reporter built and 80% lower. He made three tries and only succeeded once when he took it to a gunsmith to fix his screw ups. The media periodically tosses these stories up to gain traction for the anti gunners.

    Antifa attacks BLM

    Just a newbie, but I had to comment on this. For 15 years I volunteered with a Marine Corps Junior ROTC at a high school in Florida. It was a 95% black school with most of the students living in the Hood. Police rarely went in with less than two cars. Simply put, it was a bad situation for the...

    Hunting & Fishing Kayak fishing

    Welcome to your new addiction. I used to kayak fish in the Jax area. Brown's creek is an awesome spot to learn in. Cedar Point is another good one without a lot of boats crowding you.
