    Rifle Mounted Range Finder

    From an IP protection POV you may want to consider taking your pics offline for a while ....at least until you get something filed with the USPTO. I'm all for this kind of development but I'd hate to see good ideas killed by bad decisions. Hire a patent attorney and get one of these filed...

    Dakar

    I know two fools that raced the original.....the factory sponsored one made the podium. The independent was 65 yrs old and broke his foot three or four stages into it- on a Yamaha 250. Both of them were wicked smart, had more than a few screws loose and had overworked guardian angels.

    There's a lot of 6.5CM hate all of a sudden. WTF happened?

    A while back we started referring to shooting .308 as "turnip tossin"....same ballistics.

    There's a lot of 6.5CM hate all of a sudden. WTF happened?

    Most entertaining match I've ever shot was a 175SMK, .308-only match. It was a prematch to Karstetter in Central Washington in the not-so-forgiving time of year, weather wise. RO's and friends. No bitching, no gaming, no cheating....just good, better and best shooting skills.

    There's a lot of 6.5CM hate all of a sudden. WTF happened?

    My first long-range match was about 16 yrs ago...I was so new to the game that I shot it with my scoped M1A super match that I had previously used, unscoped, for High Power matches...All of us got schooled by a leather sandal-wearin, long-haired hippy dude shooting a 22-250. Props to him. To...

    I am over SHOT SHOW

    Good call LL If you think SHOT is bad, try CES. Total clusterfuck but spread all over Vegas, to the extent that it's almost physically impossible to see the whole show. Like most trade shows, this one needs to die. PS- Your liver and lungs thank you

    So much for the trusty, reliable Beretta 92

    The MPX (Gen2) had a bent ejector. It ran poorly out of the box and had feeding/stovepipe issues. I was told twice by Sig CS that nothing was wrong with it- after sending it back, twice. I even sent them slow motion video of the gun choking. I tried 6 different ammo mfgs. and still had issues...

    So much for the trusty, reliable Beretta 92

    Goodwill from profit-driven & marketing-driven companies is a thing of the past. Most large firearm companies are this way and the CS reps are powerless to help. My experiences with Sig (Crap MPX-out of the box-sent back twice -I found the fault and fixed it myself) and S&W (WaltherP22 slide...

    Night Vision Kosher Surplus GTG? / Contact here?

    Newly purchased products should perform to spec. If they don't, out of the box, then sending the customer to the manufacturer deal with an issue should be a secondary course of action- secondary to replacing that new item with another out of your inventory. You do business the way you see fit...

    Might Be An East Coast Thing-But Where Did You Find The Best Cheese Steak

    Paella recipe is now in the Nom Nom thread. This recipe is damned easy and taught to me by a chef from Barcelona over a zoom meeting at the beginning of the Covidity. Pella is peasant food, cooked in the field by citrus farmers from where my ancestors on my dad's side are from...Catalonia.

    If you could tell your pet one thing…

    I had a Chesapeake like that....she would slam her head into walls. Truly heartbreaking....then we tried Xanax/Alprazolam......the difference was stunning and she wasn't doped up and boozey, she just suddenly didn't give a shit about the fireworks.
