And yet they'll keep patting themselves on the back, on camera, because of how GREAT a job their doing and how utopian it is to live there. Everybody should be/live/do like them, because they are so smarter'er.

Let it burn....

I'm sorry for the wildlife, but they're living in the utopia that they've created.

They are also making a DLR version with 10 mil per rotation turret

Ah, that makes sense. I'm at the age where presbyopia is just starting to set in so I'm all for 10 mil turrets with widely spaced hash marks and extra revolutions, lol... That's why I was a little surprised to see them advertising 16 mil turrets when the current trend seems to be going back towards 10 mil turrets.

Very interested to see how PA handles their reticles in the future ie. dot vs. chevron, with most not available on relevant ballistic apps. Would really like to see them flesh out the PLX lineup with new mag ranges-not sure if new 2.5-20 or 2.5-10 are PLX, reticles-though Griffin works well for my applications in PLXC. See them as innovative and responsive to market-we’re just a greedy bunch, looking for immediate gratification.

I'm assuming your looking at factory ammo? I'd be looking at the Berger factory ammo if you can find it

Only curiosity question....: Why is it called a "fixed power" - with magnification variance of 40-60?

The power is fixed but you can change magnification via the Ocular,

As a right handed shooter, I like the left side windage adjustment and the top mounted parallax adjustments. I don't like the price point but sometimes sacrifice's are necessary.

Aguila Super Colibri's are/were advertised as indoor rat ammo.

They'll stick in a 2x4 at 12 feet. Be careful they bounce back too.

Got real lucky and scored a LNIB Guncrafter No Name for a song (50% of new cost). I'm still tickled about it.

Had to put some elk antler grips on it, even though it is less of a bling 1911 and more of a working gun.

Sorry for the crappy lighting.

As a real Californian, that left, I know the answers, Fucking post WWII Carpetbaggers and Euro Trash that took over the place, call something Paradise, Kiss it Goodbye. They have cast iron riveted water main line under Sunset Blvd, electric lines put in during the Depression, infrastructure is failing.

Water main break damages Pauley Pavilion, other UCLA facilities

Eight to 10 million gallons of water flowed across campus from the afternoon rupture that closed busy Sunset Boulevard near campus.

Now the line is 104 years old, they cannot stress the line and keep the pressure and volume down, main line to the Pacific Palisades.

Where I think the rubber is really going to hit the road is in the next 20+ years with retirement folks. Most people in their 40's right now have almost zero savings, almost nothing in retirement, many won't own their own homes, and pensions are basically extinct. The average 401k balance of 45-55 year olds is about $150k, half of Americans have no retirement accounts at all, add to that the massive increase in health issues in both young and older people, and the quality of healthcare tanking because investment groups buying up the medical industry and stripping it for profits, and it's going to get ugly. Medical issues related to cancer and obesity are quickly impacting younger and younger Americans. Cancer rates are skyrocketing for people 30-45. Early onset cancer rates (cancer before the age of 50) is increasing at 1-2% every year.

Then you have all the kids coming out of school with large student debt, no affordable apartment options, and much higher "average" living expenses than most generations. Now a lot of those "living expenses" are personal choice. When I was growing up in the 80/90's almost no one had cell phones, no one was spending $50 a week at a coffee shop, and many appliances/goods/cars were retained (and lasted) much longer. Now the average family has a $200 cable bill, a $200 cell phone bill, streaming bills, xbox subscriptions, amazon and costco memberships, two car loans and they swap cars every 3-4 years, appliances last a handful of years if you are lucky, and they probably spend $100 a week at starbucks or more if they have a couple kids. $1000 phones for every family member every 2-3 years, and new $1000 iPads, $500 smart watches, neither of which anyone wants after 2-3 years. Many families I know with 3-4 drivers are spending almost $300-500 a month just on car insurance. The list goes on and on. A lot of that pain is created by the consumer that over leverages themselves to have toys, and companies have become masters of manipulating customers with social media and all the information they get on individual buying habits, interests, and all that screen time they get to inundate them with ads. Not to even get into how badly the CPI index is manipulated to keep the # they report artificially low. If a base model Honda Civic increases in price $5k, but it gained features/technology compared to the previous model, it doesn't count toward the CPI, same is true for anything with technology. However the reality for the consumer is the cheapest Honda Civic you can buy just got $5k more expensive.

When I moved into my townhouse in 2016 it was valued at $225k, it's current value is just shy of $500k at 1400 square feet, suggested rent is $2500/mo. Most young professionals I know if they are living in an apartment outside a slum without roaches they are paying $2000 a month for a 2 bedroom, and $1500+ for a 1 bedroom. If they want to live downtown, or somewhere nice, it's more. It used to be rent on a nice middle of the road clean apartment was much lower than a mortgage but now they are similar. I just don't see how younger folks are ever going to put enough $ away to buy housing when rent is just as expensive as a mortgage. It's more critical than every for young people to make sure they get a really good paying job, are smart with their budgets, and put money away early on, however it's also become harder to do so.

I'm really thankful I lucked into a really good job, and my grandparents/parents really instilled in me the importance of saving $ early in my career, but even we spend way more than we should on crap.

bravo! this is maybe the best summation of the current and prob future road that i have seen. you describe just what my grands are facing. prob never own as rents are = to mortgage or higher. saving for a down payment impossible because of $5 eggs etc. you point out the stupidity of all the high tech,basically useless toys. correct on cars. i had to get a new one because of a totaled wreck. is a 5 yo nissan loaded with all the digital crap that i don't want or need. you have to buy it as no "stripped" models exist. a good part of the cost is gov mandates and all the rest thrown in because people just can't conceive of finding a place without GPS etc. insurance home,health,auto is huge,even for me as a retiree. i can handle it because i have gotten control of my toy addiction. most young were raised without any such control. agree obesity is now the most common body type and health care is just a DR typing on the comp,pushing the latest meds and referring out anything that requires any work. ie if they can't just blow off or ignore any finding they stumble on to. don't even start on environmental degradation and crime. both seem to be on an unstoppable upward climb. the deteriorated international situation isn't helping.

Leftist Canadian Politician Fires Back at Trump — Proposes Annexing California, Washington, and Oregon into Canada | The Gateway Pundit | by Jim Hᴏft

In a daring response to Trump, Elizabeth May proposes an audacious idea: annexing California, Washington, and Oregon into Canada. Discover the implications of this bold political move.

www.thegatewaypundit.com

Green Party leader threatens to annex three US states.
Canada’s Green Party leader, Elizabeth May, took aim at President-elect Donald Trump, offering a wild “proposal” to annex California, Oregon, and Washington into Canada.
Her comments, dripping with arrogance, reveal an out-of-touch politician grasping for relevance while ignoring the stark realities of her own country’s struggles.
Trump posted on Truth Social last month expressing frustration with the United States “subsidizing Canada to the tune of over $100,000,000 a year,” while pointing out that many Canadians might actually welcome the idea of statehood.
He argued it would save Canadians money on taxes and military expenses, framing the prospect as beneficial for both nations.
“No one can answer why we subsidize Canada to the tune of over $100,000,000 a year? Makes no sense! Many Canadians want Canada to become the 51st State. They would save massively on taxes and military protection. I think it is a great idea. 51st State!!!” Trump wrote.

EXCELLENT IDEA, GO FOR IT!

That is one ugly CUNT!

But I would buy one for my kids and not the other.

So

Different

They need to update again with a ATx or AXSA style stock

Okay, in all honesty I do have a Cricket .22LR for my girls to learn on.

There is some cheap plastic on that rifle. Even your firing pin/cooking assembly.

Will it work? Sure. Mine has. And if you want to get the kids out on something "like dad's", then probably not a bad deal. An heirloom it is not however.
