Zelensky showing no respect in Oval Office

Sniper’s Hide: “I don’t want my tax money going to Ukraine!”

Also Sniper’s Hide: “Withdrawing from Afghanistan was bullshit!”

-Stan
Depends on the argument for Afghanistan. THAT withdrawal was bullshit. Not necessarily withdrawing.

That said, the money, and blood was already spent to have a foothold. It would have made sense strategically to have and keep assets capable of mobilizing in that general region. It also would have made more sense to have ballistic missile capability around the Hindu Kush, as it would a shorter distance to areas that might be hostile to the US. Iran, Russia etc.

Zelensky showing no respect in Oval Office

Zelensky should walk the streets of every major US city and thank every homeless veteran for giving Ukraine the money that should’ve been given to them to get them off the streets and improve their lives.

That would’ve showed class and would also have galvanized the support of the American People.

Instead… he pulled this shit.

Sidearms & Scatterguns If you had $2000 to spend for a range pistol…

Makes sense. It was the most beautifully machined thing. Looked like it was from the future. Had a threaded barrel for it too lol. Kinda wished I had kept it, but just for the industrial design, really. Anyway, sorry for the interruption.

Nice shooting @308pirate. Try some vintage zebra-stripe Zubaz next time to further psyche out your competitors. Not the modern rendition…that’s trying too hard. Sweaty unwashed 1980’s vintage is where it’s at.

Pair with too-short mesh top & mullet for god-boss level technique.

But I am serious, nice shooting and moving. Even I can tell you’re very efficient.

So, a few years ago while on my “pistol exploration vision quest” on a whim I bought a Q5 Match SF Pro. I don’t even like pistols!

Now, I’m not coming at this as anything but a noob curious at what an expert thinks. What’s the diff between that and a SF PDP? (Edit: mainly the grip?)

I sold it for a big loss as apparently no one around here likes them. It was awesome, but I just didn’t need it.
They are very similar and I believe some internals are the same but the main differences are external as you noticed

Zelensky showing no respect in Oval Office

Please list them, if it's not too much trouble.

I haven't gotten involved in that war, other than Biden and Zelensky are stealing and laundering American taxpayers money.
Most lately Tomahawks, 7 times the range of ATACM's. What could happen?

Then there is a "No fly Zone" over Ukraine, enforced by. . . What could happen?

NATO troops on the ground in Ukraine. . . What could happen?

There's more but you get the picture.

PRS Stock for DD5v3

I wouldn't call the B5 light but I like it way better than the Magpul precision. It just fits better and feels more thought out

Looking at some numbers online it also has the potential for a much shorter length of pull which is great for being directly behind the rifle. Cant belive the magpuls are like 14" minimum LOP, seems more suited for prone off angle shooting.

SWFA 3-9x42 mil-quad

Having had and used both the SWFA 3-9x42 and the Athlon Helos BTR Gen 2 2-12x42 extensively, the Athlon has the superior feature set. I should note that both scopes fit in the MVPO category making them ideal as DMR or Hunting type optics. They are perfect for 18" Barreled 5.56mm AR's, and short barreled hunting rigs (below 20" for example) , as are all the other scopes in the MVPO class.

Positives for the Athlon over the SWFA:

It has a better reticle (For large targets like game, steel plates and 2 legged varmints).
Illuminated Reticle
Wider field of View 55 ft @ 2x for the Athlon vs 33 ft @ 3x for the SWFA
Side Parallax Adjustment and adjustment down to 10 yds making it suitable for rimfires.
10 Mils per rotation vs 5 Mils for the SWFA
Zero Stop
Locking Turrets
Cheaper by about $200. or so depending of course on whether your a Leo or Mil or Veteran and/or time of year when sales are in full bloom. During those times there is little price difference to matter much.
From my perspective SWFA looks to be a declining enterprise, and it's long range viability is in some doubt.

Negatives for the Athlon compared to the SWFA:

The SWFA has finer reticle for target work. Though it must be said neither scope is designed for pure target work.
The SWFA is probably more rugged long term.
The SWFA is 5 oz lighter.
The SWFA has better eye relief 4.1" vs 3.6"
The SWFA use a 3x zoom range vs 6x in the Athlon. Some will say that this is simpler construction therefore better.
The SWFA is faster to the shot, as there is no side parallax you need to fiddle with ever.
The SWFA is not made in China.

Zelensky showing no respect in Oval Office

Not sure what to think here. Russia invades Ukraine, Zelenksy, with American taxpayer money, minus 10% for the Big guy, fights them to a stalemate. \

Trump wants to quit funding Zelenksy's war and wants Z to come to the table and negotiate peace with Putin, IOW, give Putin what he wants.

Z doesn't have shit to negotiate with without U.S. taxpayer's money, minus 10% for the Big guy. TBO, I'm sure it was way more than 10%, enough to make the swamp millionaires many times over.

How is this going to result in WWIII?
Look at the things Z has asked for.

Do I need to list them for you or are you already aware?

areas to avoid in portland

Truthfully, you're in Eugene. Enjoy the events at the track. Aside from that it is a college town with FAR leftists ideas, shitty retail, bad food, and limited things to do.
we there last year for the olympic trials, you sir, are correct lol.

One of the days the wife and i rented a car and drove out to the coast while my son got to hang out at the Track Smith hospitality house with all of the athletes, go for a run and shoot hoops with them. It was pretty awesome for him to do that. The coast is unreal, fucking unreal. It makes me hate PA even more.
