The Bubba Effect

I do not know how far out he was. I pulled up google earth, went to the area he was in and ranged 200 and 300 yards. 200 gave him quite an area to work with.
My thought as well. I have had some pretty nice 7.62 stuff both SKS and AK. They were "OK" out past 150 but I preferred the 5.56.
Not planning any covert idiocy just saying.

Agree. Since most all of my buddies got into rifle marksmanship, I forget that everyone is not into rifle marksmanship.
In the vid from the rooftop, it looks like his rifle maybe had an optic on it, but cannot tell.
I looked at the Dallas Police twitter feed and they were live posting updates of where the march was prior to the shooting. Not saying thats how he knew, just an observation.
It doesn't take long to drive or walk to a parking garage ahead of the protest and walk up some stairs.
Remember the other suspects, they were not shooters, but "are connected" they could have been lookouts or drove him there. We will know in time.
Hillary and Obama are dancing a jig right now. Be it in police blood or not, this is a gift to them to take the news cycle away from their blatant lies and illegal actions. Not to mention leading them right into the routine gun control dialog, which we need to understand is working much better than we're giving it credit.

Unlike the M1A, scope rings are cheap, and VERY stable. The SKS doesnt drill/tap the reciever, you replace the ENTIRE receiver top, and it has the rings welded in place. By far the most stable rings I have ever seen.
(provided you didnt trim down too much of the cover as you were fitting it)
I was at the City County building today and gave my condolences and appreciation to multiple officers and everyone of them thanked me. It felt good to do so.
One was a lieutenant and I told him it is sad that I as a lawful gun owner and carrier may be punished by some people in Washington for the actions of others. He replied it was not right for that to happen and thanked me.
And I'm full of joy that the Dallas police killed that silly SOB, Just waiting for someone to start complaining about how they did him in.

You probably haven't seen this thread yet. It's a doozy.

Holy cow, I missed that one. Deadly force is deadly force. Whether you shoot them, stab them, run them over with a car, or blow them up with a little bomb, the outcome is the same. If deadly force is justified, then it's justified.

Just food for thought. Deadly force is deadly force, but this is setting a dangerous precedent. Will this become the norm now? Is this the answer to bunkered terrorists? I thought a situation of this nature called for SWAT. It is what they have been trained to handle isn't it? Don't get me wrong. I'm far from being a bleeding heart liberal. It's just a little unnerving that police have now included limited explosives in their arsenal. I'm surprised that they didn't use an armored vehicle to approach and trap the shooter. I do understand that they were concerned about possible explosives, but is the answer to use explosives themselves? Will police now use explosives just because they are concerned any nut job might have explosives?
If someone is shooting at the police then kill them with whatever you have. Just get it done fast.
What I personaly think the ARMED national guard should be called in for is any black rally or protest. If they start burning **** down or blocking highways or shooting or damaging anything then shoot them.
