    Geissele you so crazy

    Meanwhile, HK is wondering what the fuss is about... https://us.hkwebshop.com/hkstorefront/hk/en/Rifle-Parts/Magazines/HK-30rd-Steel-Magazine/p/251770S https://hkparts.net/product/30-round-maritime-magazine-steel-hk-416-mr556-p487.htm

    A solution to my Pit Problem

    Another board requires registration with a non-free email address. It helped a lot in keeping trolls/trouble makers from coming back. As for racist comment, if the owners of THIS board says what they said was bad, then, you should take it up with them. I just agree with the owners decision...

    A solution to my Pit Problem

    Or re -read VooDoo's post. He makes a lot of valid points. And here is a Hint: some of those alt rights are currently under a short ban for posting racist comments. Look for them and their buddies in threads. They tend to post together.

    A solution to my Pit Problem

    I'm happy to see something being done. I'm tired of the same small group of vocal, alt-rigt/Q Anon types throwing out insults and berating members who offer opposing views that don't match theirs. I left another board because the final straw was the same types moved in and highjacked what used...

    Ooops

    Was he using Mils instead of MOA? Or is it the other way around?

    Movie Theater The Mandalorian (Spoilers are ok; youve been warned)

    On a side note: The Disney+ Lego Holiday Special is cute, even if mostly kids fare. But it does have a few good lines. And yes, Lego Baby Yoda does have a scene.

    Finally getting a Garand back into the safe

    Garands are a lot of fun. Mine was made in March of 44, and rebarreled in 51.

    Is Cheyenne Bodie coming back?

    Some good news this week. I can't recall CB's posts. But two others named sitting on outs I've put on my ignore list long ago.

    Movie Theater The Mandalorian (Spoilers are ok; youve been warned)

    I did see this was the shortest episode of the season. If they go back to 40+ minutes, then it is a normal TV hour long show, minus commercials and network promos.

    Movie Theater The Mandalorian (Spoilers are ok; youve been warned)

    I do think we are going someplace. I think we will be seeing a lot more of Starbuck, err, Bo Katan since she was last seen with the Dark Saber. And she wants it back. So we will be seeing more of Madalore lore. Ahsoka Tano is a former Jedi that survived Order 66. She was a key side player in...

    Movie Theater The Mandalorian (Spoilers are ok; youve been warned)

    Episode 11 was good. And no Rick Astley in tonight's show.

    Best iPhone case/holder for somebody that is rough on phones?

    Magpul used to do phone cases. Basic protection for everyday wear and tear, but I've dropped a few phones, 3-4', and cracked the screen more than I had hoped. OtterBox for me now.

    Movie Theater The Mandalorian (Spoilers are ok; youve been warned)

    Ep 10: Nice story. Doesn't really tell a lot of what is going on in the big picture. But fun to watch. And Dave Filoni's cameo. Also, keep reading different answers if the spiders on the ice planet are the same species as the spiders on Bendu's planet in Rebels. Some say yes, some say no.

    Best iPhone case/holder for somebody that is rough on phones?

    Another Otterbox user here. Not sure on model, bit it has a soft rubber insert and a second hard plastic shell. Has done really well. I do have an iPhone 11 and I have noticed the back has some cracking on the back. I feel Apple screwed up by making the back the glass too. Front side looks...

    .22lr pistol recommendations

    Sig's Mosquito. haha Just kidding. Buckmark, Ruger Mk 4 or S&W Victory are my choices for a first .22 pistol. Then start looking at others. You will find you end up with a few in the safe before long.

    Should You Tip For Covid Takeout?

    Also try to shop local. Many mom and pop stores are struggling. So buying something on a visit helps. The only time I really didn't was in summer at a LGS that thought that $20 for a windowless Gen2 PMAG was worth everyone's time/money. Since I spent $16 a pop for Gen3 windowed a few weeks...

    Should You Tip For Covid Takeout?

    Tipped more. Both to support them, and keep their places open.

    Ep 10 is out. And my news feeds are already filling with spoilers and "did you catch this reference/cameo...." ARGHHHHH!!!!!!

    Is .224 Valkyrie going to die out?

    IMHO, the .224Valk has the same issues as it's parent, the 6.8SPC. It looks really good. But it is not an easy barrel/bolt swap to get it on an AR. A lot of part swaps and tuning is needed to get it right. But get the balance right, it will be sweet. As for longevity, I would also invest in...
