    Panic Buying?

    Prices will see a bump depending on what happens tomorrow night, and then there will be a complete disregard for everything that has happened a week before the election and panic buying will ensue.
  2. yeah that's what makes this light strange... you can see it is literally as bright out at 300 yards as it is at 50 yards. I guess it's some ancient chinese voodoo or something powering the light.
  3. Here's a pic, the trees in this are about 50 yards from where I am standing. The barn is at least 300 yards away, on the opposite side of my neighbor's cow field. It would go much further, I just don't want to walk across the road to the field and get a longer shot to something else.

    That was brass, the steel I get for 0.21/round shipped

    Panic Buying?

    They were more pissed off at the last order, it was quite larger - needed some steel ammo for LTS. The recent batch was just because I didn't have any .223/5.56 brass for reloads.

    Panic Buying?

    You can get it cheaper... I just ordered 5000 .223 for $1339 shipped. that comes down to 0.267 each shipped.
  7. And that is a gun that has been cared for.
  8. Did you check out tripadvisor.com? May give you something to browse around on and get some ideas.
  9. Nah forget the family, it will be about time for the TGO secret santa pretty soon.

    Stomach Bug!

    Learned a very hard lesson with food poisoning back in 2010. when you have something wrong with your body that needs to pass through it, DO NOT take immodium, or anything else for that matter, that slows down the process.
  11. It's F******* bright, ain't it?
  12. I like to gamble! Actually just wanted to shoot the thing, plus it needs to be zeroed at 100, not 50~
  13. Have not used, my boss's buddy has one and said he loves it. He told me about them last week and I was thinking about getting one for the AR10. Am also interested in feedback.
  14. Text review - Chinese quality build, but bright as ****. should be here on monday I opted for slow shipping to get free amazon credits.
  15. damn so about 50% brighter than I thought. It's really f'n bright was all I knew. Construction is definitely chinese quality, but at $30 it's a throw away light anyways.
  16. Thanks guys, I meant to say "flip" not "slip". I don't much care about the iron sights being useful, so that's not much of a deal. I think 3x will work pretty good - it's a 2 moa dot and this isn't a precision rifle... this was free-handing a zero at 57 yards with no magnification on the red dot at the range. First time I ever shot a bullpup (was all over on that first shot group) fairly impressed, but definitely need magnification of some sort to get it zeroed out at 100 and need to fire it supported to see how accurate the gun itself is without me waving around madly
  17. I never consider anything on any race cars 'mainstream'. If that was the case, KERS would be considered common right now and there's not a single instance of it on anything other that exotics or race cars.
  18. mainstream; there will always be exceptions.
  19. Knowing what an 800 lumen light looks like, I would say it's around double that.
  20. I'll post a pic once mine gets in, that photo they are showing on the page is not an exaggeration. Maybe a little bit more fog than we had... well, I'll just show you a picture. If it had a wider dispersement, you could literally use it as a search light from a helo from lower altitudes.
  21. Most stuff on the interwebs that sounds too good to be true usually is. But my buddy had one of these flashlights with him over the weekend. At his house we had a field of view, probably 250-300 meters to the woodline from his deck and this el cheapo thing lit up about a 20 foot spot brighter than any flash light I had seen before. This thing is no joke kind of blind people you point it at bright. If you ever have a need for spotlighting, get one of these. I just ordered one for myself after seeing it in person. These lights are legit and only $29 https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01ANGPD66/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

    Titans

    The Titans fans are starting to become like Bengals fans. Every year they suck, and every year the fans go through the five stages of grief (DABDA) as the season progresses and start over the next year.
  23. Twin charging has been around for about 10 years or so. With advancements in turbo technology, it's completely useless.
  24. Haven't messed with the red dot/magnifier combo before and thought I would put one on the tavor. Have the red dot already picked out, holosun hs503c (really pleased with it on the mp5) and was thinking I could pop a magnifier on the back end of it. Does anyone have recommendations for the magnifier? It has to be able to flip to the side, and not looking for anything fancy. Shots out to 100-200 meters is what I will be going for, anything beyond that and I'll use something other than a varmint caliber.
