You guys are talking about smallers bikes. I can honestly say thay riding dirt bikes my whole life has made the change to riding street bikes much more fun, and probably safer. I already knew the basics and can divert more attention to my surroundings and driving instead of constantly hunting gears, looking for the brake lever, etc. Plus it helped me already know not to fight the bike on gravel and other surfaces, etc. I think a lot of people under estimate the fun of a small bike whether its dirt or street.

If I'm paying that much for a sport bike its gonna say Ducati on it. Tapatalk ate my spelling

I can honestly say that 2 firearms would make me content. If I can get a SCAR 17 and a Sig P226 MK 25 I'd never want or need another firearm. Tapatalk ate my spelling

Time to Cowboy up and build my own M14!!
Spots replied to SmokyBaer's topic in Gunsmithing & Troubleshooting
Hell yeah. That is awesome. Looking forward to watching this build. Tapatalk ate my spelling -
And thats why I'm not brand loyal. I'd rather ride a cheap metric I can afford than look at pictures of Harley thats out of reach right now. Those lil motors are pretty peppy. Consdering how most people ride, 40 or more horsepower is usually plenty for cruising. That said, Id love to have one of the new Vmaxs. Nothing like rolling burnouts at 40 mph Tapatalk ate my spelling

I did. And those prayers were answered because I fixed the car and traded a rifle tha I might use once a month, and hadn't been able to sell, for a motorcycle I can ride to work everyday. My truck averages 16 mpg. This averages 50 mpg. Insurance is cheap on it at less than $100 a year. So yes, when I have less than $150 (tags and insurance) in a new mode of transportation that will save me tons on gas and maintenance cost it was a good finacial decision. Its not like I went and burdened myself with a huge monthly payment or something else that will be a finacial burden. I can park this tomorrow and I'll never pay another dime on it.

Its so crazy to hear that towns name. I lived in Fallbrook after my last deployment from Oct. 2011-Jan. 2012. I live over on De Luz Road and would go down to the 76 (I think that was it) and run that curvy rd all the way to Fallbrook, cruise through town to De Luz, then run it all the way to Temecula in my WRX. Small world. My first bike was an xr 100 when I was 8, its one of the most enjoyable things on earth for me. Tapatalk ate my spelling

[quote name="robtattoo" post="1115892" timestamp="1393262029"]Beard oil?? Soft & lustrous???? Oi vey. Shave it off & use this on your vagina. Beards are supposed to be course, grizzly & manly.[/quote] Mine drys out and gets brittle and just general looks like shit sometimes. I was using olive oil on it from time to time and it helped. I ordered the peppermint and cedar scents yesterday, I'll report back when they arrive Tapatalk ate my spelling

We had a guy like that at MALS-16 when I was there. He was a Sgt. and was riding a custom FXR with massive apes and extended controls. He looked like he was riding a normal bike when he put his feet on the highway pegs and was hanging on those huge apes (12" or more). The rest of us could barely reach his controls lol. He was at 6'4" or taller and that man could ride a motorcycle like he was born to it

[quote name="RC3" post="1116131" timestamp="1393285779"]I have a couple of customers that have the super glides. Hell, one of them tried to get me to ride his. I always like the sporters looks and I find the fatboy to be a bit too big for me. And this C50 is a heck of a lot cheaper than a new or most used harleys.[/quote] The sporters just don't do it for me for some reason. I like the long and low look. That new 2014 Super Glide Custom would be perfect if I had $14k laying around. But then again, I'm 6'1" and 250 lbs. I look odd on small bikes, and I look like a primate copulating with a brown ball on most sport bikes. Tapatalk ate my spelling

[quote name="RC3" post="1116116" timestamp="1393284966"]I want one, only issue is that my dad and all his buddies have harleys. I am the odd ball that likes a suzuki.

But what I love and what I can afford are two different things, so I'm customize this one and enjoy riding on a bike thats comfy, easy to handle and reliable. Thanks for the warm words everyone Tapatalk ate my spelling

[quote name="smokin45" post="1115861" timestamp="1393256201"]Spots were you going to carry the hammer? [/quote] I'm gonna strap that 24 lb attitude adjuster to the back seat. Yeah I've seen the get back whips and had friends who have kicked doors to get someones attention. Yeah, I made my license today and some woman pulled out in front of me in the parking lot. I've wanted a bike for years, and I'm ecstatic to finally get one. Tapatalk ate my spelling

Traded off my M14 for something a little different. I needed a cheap on gas commuter and found this on a facebook gun trader site. Its a 1993 Kawasaki Vulcan 750. I replaced the battery and redid the turnsignals where the rubber stalks had rotted off and I'm off and riding. I had about $1300 in the rifle, and I kept my vortex scope. I've rode the bike around here some, and I'm going tomorrow to get tags and my M endorsment. I've been on dirt bikes my whole life, and rode a few street bikes, but this is my first street bike that I own completely, and will be riding the wheels off this thing. I'm gonna change a few things to suit my taste, but here it is. Tapatalk ate my spelling

[quote name="TMF" post="1114420" timestamp="1392989339"]You obviously just came to this thread to troll. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk[/quote] This. If you don't understand, then there is no way to explain it to you. Them being solemn and respectful isn't only the right thing to do for the hero in that box, its the right thing to do for the family who is burying a young son or daughter who gave everything for this country, and its the right thing to do for the guys who are still alive and watching a friend and a brother being lowered into the ground. Until you've seen a friend who was young and funny, someone you've loved and hated, trained with, ate with, slept beside, who you know had your back, and you had his, lowered into the ground because he was the one that got hit with an IED, then you can talk. Until then, you can shut the fuck up, because you will never understand. Tapatalk ate my spelling

Found Coyote Dead, NOT TORTURED. SIMPLE TAGGING OF GAME
Spots replied to Lumber_Jack's topic in Hunting and Fishing
[quote name="79troublehead" post="1113868" timestamp="1392912847"]Are you serious about "competition hunting"? Man, I must be living in a time warp. What sick mind thought up this?[/quote] I've been doing competition coon hunting since I was little, and so has my dad who is 60 this year. Its not a new trend by any means. And I don't really consider it sick, coyotes are a nuisance and have cost me and my family a lot of money and headache harrassing cattle. Whats the difference in killing 3 or 4 on the weekend and killing 3 or 4 in a competition hunt. Either way the coyote gets killed quickly with a gunshot. Tapatalk ate my spelling -
Looks really good. I encourage every knife lover to make their own at least once, whether its by forging, hand filing or grinding. Once you do it really opens your eyes to the amount of work and thought that goes in to a good blade. Awesome work man, maybe one day you can come spend a day in the forge and hammer one out.

I'm for it. Makes it a pain in the ass working construction in the winter, it gets dark to early to work after 530 or so. The funny thing is that they changed it to help farmers, but it didn't matter to most farmers. The time on the clock didn't matter, every farmer I know works from dawn till past dusk. The amount of daylight doesn't change, just what time the clock says, and when you are a farmer or someone else doing that type of work, the clock doesn't matter. Tapatalk ate my spelling

Westborough Baptist Church has the monopoly on class less idiots at military funerals right? Wrong. The national guard seems to have their share. This solider posted pictures of posing around a casket with the caption "We put the fun in funeral" and a pictures suggesting the cold weather was reason for them to do a sloppy job folding the flag. Here are the pictures Heres the full story http://my.chicagotribune.com/#section/-1/article/p2p-79355296/ They need to fry these people. Bad conduct discharges. This is complete bullshit and makes my blood boil. Maybe someday it will be one of their friends in that box, and then they will understand. A respectful military funeral is the least we can do for those who pay the ultimate sacrifice, and these nasty shitbags need to pay dearly for this disrespect. Tapatalk ate my spelling

Seeking Optics Recommendations For 300 Blackout

[quote name="DMark" post="1112084" timestamp="1392580972"]Spots, [i]Getting Back on Topic.....[/i] How did that new stock for the M1A work for you?[/quote] To be honest? It pissed me off a little. I have some tuning work today, and I didn't realize this but it was missing a screw. Once thats squared away and I do some tuning I think it'll work much better. Ergonomically it was much better, and even though its heavy, it didn't kill me. It just wasn't grouping good and tight and it had a wandering POI that should be corrected shortly Tapatalk ate my spelling
