  1. And what would you use that for?
  2. Did anyone notice the stupid AR on the home page. You know, the one with the fake acog mounted behind an EO-Tech. WTF...

    Bullshit. your not going to spin the jacket off. It may cause accuracy issues in lighter bullets but it wont destroy them. It handles 55gr - 77-80 gr just fine.

    Absolutely nothing. I prefer 7t in an AR.
  5. Not for reading.. Reading all the time on such small devices is a pain in the ass. I have the kindle app on my android which has a larger screen then the iphone and its still not pleasant to read on.
  6. Talked to him this morning.. Complete BS.
  7. My buddy owns his own ballistics company and does bullet design and analysis on bullets and other high speed flows. I just sent him the link to get his opinion. Im calling Bullshit.
  8. Yeah but the ipad is uber expensive.
  9. Kindle Fire is the newest and getting allot of good reviews as an e-reader / cheap tablet.
  10. None of those images were mine. I just googled for AR + Vortex PST. I dont have a 1-4 PST
  11. Dont forget your team banner on the side.
  12. To be 100% honest. I havent gotten to use them but I played with them at SHOT show last year and they were nice. I would have to rely on Beenstrings opinion as he has used them and is sponsored by Vortex Optics. My personal opinion is that reddots are nice but I prefer something which is more of a scope. The 1-4x are perfect because you get the same view as a reddot on 1X but can zoom the scope to 4x if you want/need it. The straight magnification reddots/eo-tech/ACOG have their place in a more for close quarters combat type situation or 3gun competition setting. If you want precision shooting, then I like the scopes. They are small scopes, not like your typical rifle scope. Let me find a pic or2.
  13. Click value is 1/2 MOA according to the page which is ridiculous. I'll bet if you do a box test with it, it doesn't track for shit. There's allot more then just looks and dot colors for a sight. If it doesnt track, Ill throw it against a wall. No Im not kidding.
  14. +1 to everything said about Vortex. Their PST and Razor lines are top notch. I would take a PST 1-4 or Razor 1-4 over an ACOG.
  15. When are we leaving.. Remember. I have companion pass on Southwest which means anywhere I fly, I can take someone with me for free. So that means we get 2 tickets for the price of 1. I have friends near Dallas including guys with top tier rifles, nightvision, etc. One of my friends owns and runs one of the premier long range rifle range and training range down there.
  16. Where's your holiday cheer. Fatties need lovin too, and it saves on the heating bill.
  17. Thats my plan if I follow through. I just wanted to see if anyone disagreed with my #'s
  18. Fairly straightforward question related to flooring support. My understanding is that code says 40lbs sq/ft with a safety factor of 1.5-2 is what a residential floor is required to support. If you were going to have a load that only traversed 2 joists (2x10 16ft span, Load @ approximately 6-8ft from a support point for the joist) How many additional floor joists would you add to support approximately 180-200lbs sq/ft. I was planning on: Doubling up 1 of the joists for the entire 16ft span Adding a double joist between 2 existing joists which would be in the center of the load. Double up another joist for approximately 12ft of the span and tying them off together. Then a screw jack under the double joist spanning the 16ft span. Thoughts? Debating on how large of an aquarium would be safe depending on weight.
  19. They already apologized and said it wasnt intentional. However they did not say whether or not they were going to change the design. While I can understand the feelings towards the design, I also think we need to step back and look at it for what it really is and not what it may represent to some. I think our country has become way to entangled with trying to control and make everything politically correct which has actually resulted in more of a divide amongst the population.
  20. My buddy just picked up one of these. (This is not your typical 10/22. This is a pimped out version for sure. http://www.tacticalsol.com/tshome/complete-rifles
