    what are your thoughts on boots?

    Rocky used to be a really cheap brand that I steered away from, but they have come out with some very lightweight boots that seem to hold up very well...

    Getting a pup used to shooting.

    That might work for some, but definitely isn't a positive experience for them as they are forced to put up with it even if they are terrified rather than WANT to put up with it based on the reward or whatever method you are using to reinforce it. I do not believe this would work with all dogs...

    Getting a pup used to shooting.

    It's a fairly straight forward process with almost any dog, but will obviously depend on the demeanor of the dog. I personally have a German Shepherd (pet) that is skittish and is scared of her own shadow half of the time... Just the way she is. My last dog I deployed with became overwhelmed...

    Tipton Best Gun Vise Review

    And if you're on a budget or just don't want to spend the money on this one, even their cheaper basic cleaning station/vise is awesome... just not quite as adjustable as this one.

    Anywhere to get good custom ballistic charts?

    +1 for JBM! This is all I use. Free, simple, and precise. I love this site! The trajectory calculator is all you need in 99% of situations to get good charts. I save them, size them in paint, and fix them to my stocks. JBM - Calculations

    .308 Winchester Charge Needed [SMK 175, IMR 4064, Fed 215M, Lake City Brass]

    Depends on your seating, but 43.5g should get you roughly 2,650 and a pretty stable load.. I haven't used it in a while as I have Varget and IMR4895, but I got decent results right around that charge. Hope this helps some

    hidden history in my type 99!

    Good to know! I MIGHT take on that venture someday if the urge to shoot it is strong enough..

    Marine Base Shooting....

    You are allowed firearms in your on base residence. You just have to register them with PMO. Barracks cannot have firearms and must store them in an approved on base armory for personal weapons. Been that way a long time now.

    Movie Theater Inside Combat Rescue

    You don't trust them farther than you can throw them. Corrupt bastards they can be. I was friends with a couple terps, but its still in the back of your mind when your on an op with them and its just you and another american and 15 of them... And I worked with the same ones for 7 months. Says...

    Gun shops like barber shops?

    There's a barber shop here that is kinda both minus selling guns... Old guns on the wall, hunting pictures and trophies, straight razor cuts, and cigars while you get a cut! It's pretty cool.

    Movie Theater Inside Combat Rescue

    Nothing more sensitive about the pickup in more dangerous missions in most cases. If they are coming in, they are flying to an area deemed the safest and mainly just have to battle incoming fire on the way in and out. I've put my ass on the line a couple times to clear an area very hastily with...

    Movie Theater Inside Combat Rescue

    It's pretty slow and a little overly dramatic for me to be honest. What I mean is they show the job, but then they add in all the dramatic overlay of the dangers they face during the missions. The missions I have seen so far are not dangerous as it's almost always picking up a casualty in a...

    When is this prepper/zombie/EOTW TREND going to RE-make it's way out of shooting sports???

    Haha I like the way this thread turned out. On a serious note, papa three six, you're right to a degree.. but realistically, I'm not going to approach half of the people I see randomly doing unsafe things with guns to start educating them on what theyre doing wrong... I see a lot of them...

    When is this prepper/zombie/EOTW TREND going to RE-make it's way out of shooting sports???

    Arrogance? No, maybe frustration. You've got to know that I KNOW it's not REALLY going away... I use these two groups because these are the two which are the most jumped on bandwagon by people and who I've personally seen the biggest jump in new people buying firearms. Sorry I upset people here...

    When is this prepper/zombie/EOTW TREND going to RE-make it's way out of shooting sports???

    Anyway, it's gotten off topic, but what I'd like to see out of all this is more positive influence on the hoards of people that are becoming new gun owners, whether it be new preppers entering the lifestyle and becoming interested, or the zombie crowd... whatever... I don't see why that would...

    You missed the part where I said I had plenty of stuff dude.. Where am I condoning not letting kids play cowboys and Indians? That's why I joined the marine corps... You two can't read worth a shit..

    When is this prepper/zombie/EOTW TREND going to RE-make it's way out of shooting sports???

    Haha, calm down... I'm 26 years old. Hardly an "old" prepper, and I've never "hoarded" anything as I've said, only acquired stuff in very small amounts throughout the last few years of stuff I've used frequently. You are taking it out of context and making it personal to anyone that collects...

    When is this prepper/zombie/EOTW TREND going to RE-make it's way out of shooting sports???

    There is a difference between making sure you have decent supplies for any type of emergency, and full bore retard prepper. You know the type, and It IS a trend... That's what I'm talking about. I could easily be considered a "prepper" by many who don't care about anything, but I've always had a...

    When is this prepper/zombie/EOTW TREND going to RE-make it's way out of shooting sports???

    Thanks for the life advice and spout about TV?... Anyway, I do have a sense of humor, I've lightened up enough to this shit, and most of these people in question have never BEEN laid... I've been adequately "prepped" for years with my normal amount of shooting and lifestyle needs without needing...

    When is this prepper/zombie/EOTW TREND going to RE-make it's way out of shooting sports???

    I'm getting REAL tired of this zombie and prepper shit. It has brought more UNWANTED idiots into the shooting and firearms world for some of the most ridiculous attention and unwanted characters that seem to make face for the rest of us who have responsibly and more traditionally enjoyed...
