    Thanks!....so I guess I need to keep looking because I only see 10x12 plates in “swimmers cut”...which you could stuff in a medium SPC I guess, but I’m a large so they might flop around a bit which is no bueno. I guess I’m being obtuse here and this is not a new argument so I’ll just keep looking.

    I’m a bit leary getting a non SAPI plate since there doesn’t seem to be a standard for sizing (I’m assuming there is no SAPI swimmer cut.. maybe I’m wrong?). What (brand?) swimmer cut did you get to fit in your SPC? Does the extra give in the SPC allow for non SAPI like the literature suggest?

    COFFEE IS READY. Smell the rich aroma of the dark roast?

    I’ve got one too. Had it for about 15 years. Never got around to getting it fixed. Abdominal surgery always seemed like it would be slow to heal.

    Night Vision Jumping in, help me spend $4-6K

    @TheHorta.... looking back on this thread with the pictures you posted are you concerned about bashing the TOR on stuff since it is mounted on the bottom?? I immediately think of throwing the rifle on a pack or a branch... and CRACK... bye bye TOR... I mounted mine on top because of that. Is...

    Night Vision TNVC and Steiner Introduce a New Very Affordable Feature Rich C1 IR Laser!

    I just got mine. Up until now I just used my “14” for navigating. However, the I gottahave bug bit and I convinced myself that I needed an ir laser. I didn’t want (or need) these big things on my rail and wasnt gonna spend 2000k-ish on a MAWL. It’s small, compact, and lightweight and puts a...

    What's next----Toothpaste?

    Master of Puppets? I will totally lose my shit. My Masters degree? I guess I’ll turn it in for an exchange of a “built on the backs of the oppressed” degree....because of course...I didn’t earn that.

    What's next----Toothpaste?

    The virtue signaling is getting a wee bit out of control. The Houston Association of Realtors (HAR) wants to remove the word “Master” from the description of the main bed/bath. I didn’t think the level of stupidity could get any higher.

    Jeezus.... I swear I need my hand held through this shit. I thought the third prong on the plug would be sufficient.

    Ok this may sound stupid but do I need to do that if all my gear including antennas are inside?

    Fieldcraft HAM radio and a new house build

    Awesome... Thanks Gun’s. The 7300 has a built in tuner but I think it has some limitations. I suspect I will get a tuner sometime down the road.... your questions are good ones but starting to get out of my comfort zone. This stuff doesn’t come second nature to me.

    Fieldcraft HAM radio and a new house build

    I floated the idea of a flagpole. I got less than an enthusiastic response. How about something like a broadband terminated dipole (square, butterfly...whatever) for HF and a Jpole for 2m.....all in the attic. Do I need to worry about interference? Fires? Exposure? Can you recommend a power...

    Fieldcraft HAM radio and a new house build

    Thanks! Technically I think we are allowed to have a flagpole but getting that through the comptroller and chief design guru (aka my lovely wife) is a whole different matter... running it down the eaves sounds more realistic.
