    Sidearms & Scatterguns High End 9MM Concealed Carry

    Yeah probably not the higher end that the OP is looking for but the P365XL is a great carry gun and you can get a regular P365 frame for it which cuts a half inch off the grip. That's a great carry option and I bet Sig will offer it as a factory option soon. I've always found the most...

    How to See Comet C/2020 F3 (NEOWISE)

    Could make out the Galilean moons starting at around 15x and Saturn's rings at about 20x. Both pretty awesome at 27x. Not quite enough to make out the Great Red Spot but I think that's a function of objective size (I know next to nothing about optics/telescopes). Jupiter is easy to pick out even...

    How to See Comet C/2020 F3 (NEOWISE)

    Seeing Jupiter with its moons and Saturn near each other (through my Razor, ha) the last two weeks has been pretty awesome -- I'll be looking for this one.

    What would you do if homeless camps started showing up in your neighborhood in parks or open spaces.

    It's still there. It's gotten bigger. My company has an office in Austin and I visited last fall on a biz trip having not been to that city in two years. I was shocked and the sheer number of homeless encampments.

    Why shouldn't I build a 7-08?

    Seconded, if you’re not married to the short action and medium/long range bears are your true intent for the rifle. 300+ more lbft with a heavier bullet with better SD and BC for distance. 280AI is a spectacular cartridge and I’d have never bought my 7mm mag if I’d known about it.

    Rifle Scopes LPVO for $350?

    Vortex is exactly 6oz heavier going by their website listed weight of 22.7oz so the Steiner is lighter in QD rings than the Vortex is by itself. I recall the PST II glass being darker with a little less resolution/definition than the Steiner, though it didn’t have the fisheye or reticle illume...

    Why shouldn't I build a 7-08?

    A long barrel like that typically lends more velocity advantage to the more overbore cartridge of the ones you’re comparing (i.e., the 7-08 in this case). Looked at two Hornady ELD-X rounds: a 150gr 7-08 and a 178gr 308. At 500yds you’ll get ~8” less drop, a couple inches less wind deflection...

    Rifle Scopes LPVO for $350?

    I’ve compared both back to back and prefer the Steiner. Slightly. Back when the Steiner was $450 it was a no-brainer; at $500 straight up it’s admittedly a tougher decision. Steiner is almost 6oz lighter so if weight is at all a concern that’s the answer. Both are substantially better than...

    NFL Washington Redskins to retire name of franchise

    I’m actually surprised they announced the drop without having a new name teed up. I won’t miss the name but it was never my team anyway. Mark Schlereth should have an interesting take on this since he won rings with both Washington and my Broncos in his career and now works in sports media.

    College football 2020

    I think you’re right. Will be the football equivalent of Fight Island ha. I love college football but it’s tough to justify a game with a body count attached. As I was struggling through my last breath I think my last thought would would be “dammit, six months from now there’ll be a vaccine...

    Rifle Scopes 22LR Scope Recommendations

    SWFA if you’re keeping the budget tight and / or don’t need variable power (it’s overrated on a target rifle, especially at only a handful of known distances). They’re available in 12x (my pick for optical quality) and 16x versions that bracket your desired 15. They’re ~$250 when they’re on...

    Movie Theater Most realistic/unrealistic action/shooter movies?

    I did! I liked the movie but have always wondered how realistic or not the long, main gun fight scene is. No personal service experience to compare it to so when I hear the ex mil guys say Zero Dark Thirty’s raid scene wasn’t realistic — which I thought looked VERY real — I just assume they’re...

    Ugh, sorry man. Yeah, from Jan to Jul I’d think you should’ve heard something by now.

    M Lok AFG, front grips

    Have the slimline M-Lok AFG on my 3 Gun rifle but use it more as a barricade push/pull stop than an actual grip.
