    Leftie posts a proud pic of his “kit”

    16" Sig MCX is a shade under 36" OAL. So even looking at the belt shows he doesn't miss his meals. Also why is the photo of him with the AK reversed? Does he think hiding the fact he is a lefty in more than one way going to give hem a tactical advantage? Also if your plate carrier has MOLLE...

    A few cartridges losing popularity? It seems

    Hey! I have a gun in .308. That round is so modern compared to my 3 .30-06 rifles, and the OG US smokeless powder round: .30WCF (30-30 for you uninitiated)

    A few cartridges losing popularity? It seems

    .300BLK in subsonic is cool. I do need to add a .300 upper to my AR, and get a can to go with it.... 300 supers I didn't get. IIRC you need a 16" barrel to get the best out of it for hunting, and most pistol cans that are rated for .300 are for subsonic only. So you need to double your...

    A few cartridges losing popularity? It seems

    Guns last a really long time if you take care of them. So manufacturers need to keep interest going to keep the buyers opening their wallets. And the easiest way to get buzz is to introduce a new cartridge. Pump up the hype, sell the 'new' gun in the latest super caliber, and rake in the...

    DOJ Files Anti Trust Suit against Google

    They did and didn't. Appeals overturned the initial verdict. And then DoJ lost interest and settled. No big breakup of MS like the first ruling mandated. I just bought a new laptop. Win10 is the OS. Only browser installed is Edge. And it wants me to go all in on MS Office. Everything else...

    DOJ Files Anti Trust Suit against Google

    If Microsoft could survive when they were 95% of the PC operating system and forcing manufacturers to load MS products and exclude competitors, no clue what the DoJ is thinking right now. If I want Chrome on my new computer, I have to open Edge and go to Google's website to get it. There are...

    If you want radicalized, have some fun. YouTube a couple Sovereign Citizens and traffic stops videos. That radicalization was going on long before there was internet, let alone COVID and masks. Watching those clowns try to argue with the police reminds me of some people on this board when...

    DOJ Files Anti Trust Suit against Google

    Seeing how the anti-trust suits against Microsoft went in the late 90s, I don't think this is worth it. Back then, MS was on 95% of the PCs out there. But Google? Shady business practices behind the scenes. Yep. But there are several other search engins out there. And EMail providers. And...

    And if they can't afford insurance, how can they afford a trip to see the doctor, let alone an ER visit or a stay in an ICU? But maybe supercorndogs is secretly wealthy and is covering the costs of those that can't afford health care. Modesty is what is keeping him silent.

    Have a gun for self defense? A CCW permit? If you seriously think the risk posed by COVID is so low, then lets look at the numbers of gun violence vs COVID. Over 220,000 Americans were killed by COVID so far this year. And we still have 2 1/2 months to go. Last year there were 30,000 deaths...

    Also to those who point to President Trump and his positive COVID test and also cry about lives/businesses ruined, here is something to ponder. Look at Trump's buddy Chris Christie. He spent 7 days in an ICU. Google Chris Christie and COVID and watch some of the interviews he gave after...

    With that attitude it is no wonder your sex life consists of going to a gun board and trying to get others to talk about their sex life.

    What a sad world you live in Lawn. If helping your fellow person out is beneath you, that says a lot about who you are a a human. As for businesses going under, most of the ones I've seen here in the DC area were ones that were in trouble already. And who to say if COVID didn't happen, they...

    mask wearer's are sheep ??

    Common sense and common courtesy are long gone with some people. It is just their total self-centeredness to scream about their rights and ignore everyone else's rights. I'm sure as of 1636Z today there are 8,383,737 Americans that wish there was a little more common sense and courtesy out...

    Same and back at you. But then again, I find the ones that scream about their rights the most also forget the responsibilities that go with it. But they make it all about them and cannot think that others have any rights. As Husky said, life is full of risks. But we all should be doing what...

    I'm lost here. Explain. So my family member HAS to stay in self isolation because others cannot act civil? So my family member cannot support the local economy by going out and shop? And in your mind causing these business to go under and suicides? All because you wearing a mask is too hard...
